Ok so i rediscovered tom petty recently, and im looking for some of his good songs besides free falling, american girl, and learning to fly
 
Here you go:

Roll Another Joing/ You don't know How It Feels

Yer So Bad

Runnin Down a Dream

Breakdown

Don't Come Around Here No More

Girl on LSD/Marijuana

Into the Great Wide Open

Free Falling

Big Weekend

Saving Grace

You Got Lucky

Here Comes My Girl

The Waiting

Refugee

Shadow of a Doubt

Basically just go ape shit with everything on Limewire. Most/All of his songs are good, but theres a list to start you off.
 
Bite me. I was thinking of a different song when I said big weekend. The Waiting is still a good song IMO. Saving Grace (forgot), I need to know, and All or Nothin are my favorites.
 
i saw him live a few weeks ago and hes still soo good. my favorite song is prolly "i need to know" but if you are looking for some good songs just check out the greatest hits cd.
 
August 13 for me once I get tickets.

My brother saw him the first day of summerfest and Petty said it was the craziest show he had ever done.
 
argh!! life is a highway and runaway train are NOT tom petty songs. highway is tom cochrane and runaway train is soul asylum. and some good songs not previously mentioned are walls (there are two versions and both are good)and zero from outerspace
 
you don't know it phil., but i bought the greatest hits on the back of something you said in BW. I'd only heard free falling before. Thanks
 
good petty songs:

Wildflowers

A Room at the Top of the World

Crawling Back to You

Learning to Fly

In the Dark of the Sun

King's Highway

...many more
