Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Whatever you're looking for
Hey, don't come around here no more
I've given up, stop

I've given up, on this love getting stronger
Don't come around here no more

You darken my door
Whatever you're looking for
Hey, don't come around here no more

I've given up, honey please admit it's over
Hey, don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Don't come around here no more
Stop walking down my street
Don't come around here no more
Who you expect to meet?
Don't come around here no more
And whatever you're looking for
Hey don't come around here no more
Hey
Honey please (honey please) don't come around here no more
Whatever you're looking for
Don't come around here no more

If you read that person's words with ❤️...you'll find their true "intent." And not just come from a place of harshly judging their words. 🤍
To me, they were trying to convey that they are sad that we ALL will never get to hear a BRAND NEW SONG by TP; one that he could have written now because, he was still here on earth 😓physically with us still. 💖
I do absolutely understand, your point, that because, Tommy was such a prolific songwriter, and had a "vault" as it's often referred to, of tons of songs, that had either never been recorded on an album, or were "alternate" versions of some of his songs that were on TPHB & TP albums, or some that were just "informal demos," that we, in a sense, DO STILL get to hear a NEW song that we've not heard before!
Thank God🙏 & Thank you TP for leaving such a generous, priceless gift 💝 of yourself behind for us to treasure!
🎩💔🎸🎶

I had the privilege of meeting this man when I was a child…. Maybe 12 years old.
I met Bob, Bruce Spingteen… my dad and uncle had restaurants that were popular when they came through and would invite them… the whole crew! Now they were still getting messed up together, the crew.
By the time the concert was over, we had already closed….
I don’t know how, but they were able to talk several bands in to coming…
Shit, I got pictures of Bob Seger, ZZ TOP… holding me for a photo shoot.
Picture early 80’s….
I got to meet all of them and their crew.
I’ll never forget Bob Seger. He was so humble.
They didn’t stay long and they didn’t want to talk because they were saving their voices.
I had an interesting life in Birmingham Alabama in the early 80’s.
I got snuck into the prince concert, never met him, but I watched him so closely that I could smell his bad ass.
I’ll never forget this man. Very humble guy!!!

Tom Petty embraced the possibilities of the music video in ways not many rock artists would. He was a legend.

Idk this video seems right up David Lee Roth’s alley, “gimme a bottle of anything and a glazed donut to go”

What do u mean? Alice in wonderland is commonplace and Freemasonic imagery is in like every video ever. Not to mention the cannibalism
@joshualiddell9145
Alice in wonderland was written about one of my ancestors Alice Liddell. I am Joshua Liddell 😊
