More quotes by Tom Petty
Eddie waited 'til he finished high school, he went to Hollywood, got a tattoo.
Tom Petty
If you stretch your imagination, I'll tell you all a tale, about a time when everything wasn't up for sale.
Tom Petty
She's a good girl, crazy about Elvis, loves horses, and her boyfriend, too.
Tom Petty
Bring me a girl, they're always the best. You put 'em on stage, and you have 'em undress.
Tom Petty
I'm more interested in what I'm going to leave behind me than in making a big hit record. I've refined what I do for a long time. If getting better at it means it goes over the heads of those who only wanted to party, then so be it.
Tom Petty
'Free Fallin'' is a very good song. Maybe it would be one of my favorites if it hadn't become this huge anthem. But I'm grateful that people like it.
Tom Petty
When I decided to be a musician I reckoned that that was going to be the way of less profit, less money. I was sort of giving up the idea of making a lot of money. It was what I loved to do. I would have done it anyway. If I'd had to work at Taco Bell I'd have still been out at night trying to play music.
Tom Petty
There was rock and roll across the dial, when I think of her it makes me smile.
Tom Petty
I never could have dreamed that her heart was so wicked, but I keep coming back because it's so hard to kick it.
Tom Petty
I wouldn't want to get stuck being an oldie-goldie group, but I don't mind. I think all the trouble you go through these days to go to one of these concerts, I think I owe them a bit of what they came to hear.
Tom Petty
I don't treat the band like I'm above them or that they're a hired hand for me. We've never worked that way. So I'm a team player. I would be very uncomfortable having to do this alone.
Tom Petty
Take back your insurance, baby, nothing is guaranteed. Take back your acid rain, let your TV bleed.
Tom Petty
George Harrison was the kind of guy who wasn’t going to leave until he hugged you for five minutes and told you how much he loved you.
Tom Petty
I have never been comfortable being the front man.
Tom Petty
Honey, don't walk out, I'm too drunk to follow.
Tom Petty
I want to be successful. Not just money. Just making a successful record and a successful show... I could feel successful without selling a million records.
Tom Petty
There was no use pretending, no magic left to hear, all the music gave me was a craving for lite beer.
Tom Petty
Running down a dream... working on a mystery... going wherever it leads.
Tom Petty
If you don't run, you rust.
Tom Petty
I'm not trying to be cool. I have a problem with lights. I have one eye that's become super-sensitive to lighting, so I do wear sunglasses quite a bit.
