- The album, Wildflowers, released in 1994, is commonly vaunted as Tom Petty’s most personal, most heartfelt, and most revealing artistic statement of his career. Recorded over the course of two years and originally intended to be a two-disc album, it was perhaps the most creative period in his life.
The release of Wildflowers & All The Rest finally gathers together all 25 songs from the original recording sessions - the 15 songs from Wildflowers, plus the 10 songs that were left off the original release.

I am Japanese. I bought this album at a record shop when it was released in Japan. It's been 30 years since then. I still love this album. This song is the first song on the album. That day, I admired him for writing such beautiful songs, and even now, that feeling hasn't changed at all.
This is incredibly sweet; thanks for sharing your joy of this song with others.

Thank you. This song reminds me of my home in Buckingham VA and growing up there. The black crows and quiet country roads, my friends, and the girl who lived over the hill who went to my school. I think of her when I hear this song.
Dedicated to my dog Stanley. RIP big guy, I love you.
Dear Tom. You're missed.
Played this beautiful song at my wedding for my deceased father, who died of brain cancer, instead of a father-daughter dance. We played a slideshow of pictures of my dad alongside the song. He loved to fish so this song was perfect. Every once in a while I'll hear it on the radio and it always makes me tear up!
My mom died in June after a yearlong battle with ovarian cancer. She was ready to go and wanted me to let her go and I just could not. I had been on a "Wildflowers" ( the whole album) kick pretty much since right after her diagnosis. But after she told me to let her go, it was like I was hearing this song for the first time. I was able to let her go because of this song. She is among the wildflowers, now, and this song is helping me to heal and still feel her presence. Thank you, Tom. God bless.🌼🌿🌻🌾🍃🌼🌿
Awww im so sorry for your loss. I lost my dad to a car accident 33years ago & it still hurts but it will get better i promise my friend. God bless you!
It’s been almost six years for me and this song still reminds me of my mom every time. I used to think the lyrics were like a message from me to her, but recently I realized it’s the other way around. Continue to let this song comfort you!
Sorry for your loss, but remember, we're all together in the end, god bless
@@basilaydyingm7506
Nothing wrong with you!
I’m so sorry for your loss. She is indeed among the wildflowers in a boat out at sea ❤️❤️ She’s always a with you never forget that. God Bless you
My 21 year-old son passed away three months ago and this song totally Hit me hard. It's beautiful. Thank you Tom.
un abrazo, ha de ser muy feo pasar eso, espero que siempre te ilumine
I lost my 28 yr old son 6 yrs ago and he was a huge Tom Petty fan, this song hits the spot for me also. Hugs from one angel mom to another.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray for you to find peace there. Pearl Jam's 'Just Breathe'' did me the same way
So sorry no parent should outlive their child. My uncle took his own life and well this song is a little rough
Rip sorry to hear that. Sorry for your loss i am 21 and turning 22 in 3 days I believe in a God of my own understanding as they say in aa and hope that when I die of old age I will see my grandmother who died this year my dog Rudy and other loved ones I don't hope I feel it in my heart. I have been through many hard ships and I'm sure so have you I am not trying to shove this God stuff down anyone's throat especially your I have blamed God for what has happened to me and my family and through my journey of recovery I have worked on my relationship with him. I hope what I said helps you feel less alone.
My 28 year old daughter just passed away after a 15 month long battle with brain cancer. I always think of her when I hear this beautiful song💕 I hope you are running through the wildflowers, my sweet Megan 💔
🌷 M 🌼 E 🌸 G 🌻 A 🌹 N 💐
May HER memory be eternal 🙏
I am so sorry for your loss. I'm glad this song gives you some comfort.
She is right there in that field mama! If you think of her with this song- she is telling you. Keep your eyes, ears and heart open…she hasn’t left your side. Not for one minute. ❤🙏🕊
So sorry for your broken 💔 hearts 😢
I recently learned in a Tom Petty documentary that this song was written during a period of deep personal reflection. He played this song straight through the first time and never found any reason to edit. I think it was his most honest, purest song from the heart.
May I ask what the documentary was? I would like to watch!!
❣️
💖💖
I heard it described as a love song to himself ❤
Just found this song. Beautiful! This comment makes sense. Sounds like deep reflection on someone. Definitely sounds like he wrote it for an friend.
Today is my birthday and all I could think was of my mother. I love you mom.
Tom said that Wildflowers was his greatest album, and greatest song.
Well, he was very, very, very right.
You are now among the wildflowers Tom👆. ONE LOVE❤️🙏❤️
Best comment.
@@albennington Thanks so much. His music means a lot to me, he was a true original. I miss Tom everyday. ONE LOVE❤️🙏❤️
@@kennymoney4044 i agree
Played this at my son's memorial last July. It fits him perfectly.
Just a fantastic feel good song appropriate for weddings or funerals, not too many songs that can cover both like this one.
My daughter passed away 10-1-2010 . I played his song wildflowers at her funeral. I love Tom Petty's ♥ of music. True legend he is.
That's really sad to hear, I hope you're doing fine
❤
October 1st
Thank you, Tom, for one of the most beautiful, heart-wrenching songs ever written. Rest in peace, wildflower.
RIP, mom. You fought so bravely and suffered far too long. Fly away .. it's time for you to be free.
I sure do miss you already, though. 💔😭
Hope I don't demean the profound feelings you expressed but I think of this song when I think of my own mom, my favorite dog, my best friend's dog; it's the one song you can cry and laugh and just feel right. And my mum had a brain tumour which in the end was much like dementia. She was always there underneath. Wonderful brave comment thank you.
I'm so very sorry for your loss , I hope you have or find peace. This is a beautiful song. I played this song after my wife of many years passed away almost 3years ago .I told her it was for her. I believe she heard me. Take care my friend. ♥️🌹🙏♥️
When I had to drive home from the hospital that my wife passed away at, this was the first song I heard on the radio. I was in shock and honestly dont know how I made it home but the song helped me and it has since then, meant allot to me. I feel sad and think about my wife and yet find comfort and meaning in Tom's wonderful lyrics. Reading many of the comments here I realize how much good his song has done and it has carried many hearts. Thanks Tom.
Sending you lots of love...💜💙😘💙💜
This song. I had just left an abusive marriage in May of 1995. My sweet friends took me along to their annual Memorial Day weekend camp out. Well, I swam naked in the pond and reveled in the sweat lodge afterward. I met a dear man who wanted to share my tent. Alas, he did not. That weekend, I was among the Wildflowers and will always remember this song as an anthem of my release to freedom.
I lost my 30 year old son a year ago. I'm never going to be over it. I'm crying while I type this...
I am so sorry for your loss my friend. You are in my thoughts and prayers 🙏 💜🙏
This song came on the radio when I was driving today. It’s a song I have always liked. I really felt it today and I think maybe I was meant to hear it. I have been feeling so low. I’m gonna be 45 day after tomorrow. I have had estranged relationships with my parents and haven’t had much family life over the years even though I am very close with my own children who are now entering teen years. My husband cheated on me about 7 months ago. He’s still here but it has changed me forever. I don’t always feel my friends are genuine. I don’t feel many people care about me. I don’t have a career. We moved 5 times and I have always been home with the kids. I was feeling like I don’t have much to be proud of, no career path, not many truly meaningful relationships. I have been covered in sadness and felt in pain. This song came on and I felt the lyrics in my soul like I am a wildflower. I’m not meant to be in a manicured flower bed with big family gatherings, a career, a problem free marriage. I grow in the woods and spread and blow in the wind with the challenges that have come to me. And I do the best I can and for that I can be proud ❤️
You are loved and you deserve to be happy. I am in the same kind of pain you are in, but we will get thru this and we’ll feel free in the end.
Beautifully written.
If you need an ear, I'm here for you
Hold tight, my friend. You are one of us and we are here for you.
You are loved,and it will be okay.
For me, Wildflowers is one of the greatest albums of all times. R.I.P. Tom.
My mom passed at 92 yrs old. She was naturally blessed with musical talent. I would sing this song to her during the week of her passing. Her one eye brow would raise when I would sing it to her. Special song that really fit that time. Miss you Mom. Glad your are somewhere you feel free. 😊
❤
That made me cry
God Bless you and your Momma
I’m sure she’s still smiling
Beautiful. Im sure that time with you was her heaven on earth as she crossed over to her great reward.❤
My mom passed away 3 days ago on Tom Pettys birthday (also my wedding anniversary) and this was her favorite Tom Petty song. She didn't want to miss his birthday party, she was such a huge fan of his. I played it for her 5 times on the day she died. I'm heartbroken, but she is among the wildflowers. ❤
That is beautiful. Wow. God Bless your mom and the daughter she raised right.
@@DrGingerHamster listen did you know that a polar bears skin is black and their fur is actually clear, it only appears white because the sun reflects off of it. now you do.
@@nickster5926 Yeah, I have read that. Interesting.
My mom died 6 days ago. This song, Have Love Will Travel by Tom Petty, and Into the Mystic by Van Morrison were on repeat.
@@coreys9057 I am so sorry for your loss. 6 months later and it's still devastating 💔
You belong somewhere you feel free 🖤
🖤
Thank you Tom Petty. Rest easy, and know that you made this world better. 💞
Yes, he did!
He's gone with the Lord now son he ain't suffering from addiction or nothing now Tom Petty's one of the greatest of all time GOD BLESS HIS SOUL and his music 🎵
My daughter got married in October and she surprised me with this song for our father - daughter dance ! I cried , and I will never forget it ! It was perfect !!!
This is what my Father and I are doing for our dance at my wedding next year 💕 i hope he loves it just as much as you did ❤
Awwww. How sweet.
Cute
I chose this too for the Father/Daughter dance for my Daughter's Wedding. She told me she read the lyrics the next morning and was bawling. Still can't listen to it without tearing up.
My daughter wants this song to dance with her dad at her wedding. I'm her mom and I'm already getting teary eyed listening to this song.
This song was the opposite of my upbringing. I am now going to follow my heart and feel free. Tom had so much compassion and love. R.I.P dear one. You are missed.
Far away from your trouble and worry
I was free despite the upbringing... Please be careful about people who say they love you, you might be more vulnerable than you think.
Nice comment
I work at margaritaville on universal citywalk, and we play a Jimmy Buffett live cover of wildflowers all the time. Crazy to think they’re both gone 😢 RIP Tom and Jimmy. ❤
Thanks so much to Tom's family and friends who worked to put this album out. We love you.
Giving my daughter away at her wedding. Mom and Dad were first 2 words. Tom Petty was words 3 and 4. This is her favorite album. I picked this song and she loved the choice..Thank you for all you gave us Tom.
This has always been one of my favorites and holds a special place in my heart. Two days ago I had to say goodbye to my sweet dog, Penny, who was with me for 13 years. When I left the vet without her this song came on as soon as I started my car. I like to think she made that happen. 💔💔💔
Beautiful sad story I'm sure she is among the wild flowers now ...
I totally understand I hope you have found another beautiful pup to fill the nooks and crannies 🐾
She did ❤
May you rest among the wildflowers you bloomed in our hearts Tom❤️
I was born in 1988. I was raised with classic rock. My mom was a "concert kid" you can't name a band from those days that she hasn't seen play live. Tom petty was her favorite, and is one of mine. This song always makes me think of her free spirit, and the love for music that she passed down to me.
I've been listening to and hearing Tom Petty for my pretty much my whole life. How did I ever miss this gem for this long?...Never heard 1 time thru late 80's or 90's or the last 22 1/2 yrs. Don't get at all....either way, it's a gem to find after he passed, when I thought I pretty well had him understood n covered......To me it's his best work n hope he's pickn and singn it "In that home bye n bye".
Today, in beautiful autumn sun. My mom was put to final rest next to my father who passed away in 2006. Toms lyrics helped us say goodbye. Now they are together again. Among the Wildflowers.
Has to be the prettiest song I’ve ever heard💜
My beautiful great niece, a gypsy soul with a hippie vibe....this world was just too much for her...this song fits her perfectly.
Tom Petty has written the most beautiful lyrics in this song. You not only hear them ,you feel them! Unbelievable talent that will never die.✌❤❤❤
Makes me miss so many who've blessed my life - family, friends, pets, and of course the true poets
-- Thank you Tom!!
My cat Patches died in April. He was always trying to get out the door and go sit in the greenery. He did whatever he wanted.
The night before he died, he walked across the floor so jaunty. He had recently started hanging with this succulent plant. After he died, the plant flowered.
For years all I heard from Tom Petty was the stuff on the radio (last dance with Mary Jane, You don’t know how it feels, Free falling etc.) Decent songs and all but this is an absolute masterpiece.
WE MISS YOU TOM!!!
I was singing at a vineyard once when a couple who just married asked us to play this for them. So we did! One of those memories I will cherish forever ❤
You could've, after the intro, started singing the lyrics to I Believe in Father Christmas and totally confused them.
I lost my precious nephew unexpectedly and I had never heard any of these songs. It was played at his funeral and it just brought me to uncontrollable tears. He was just 17 years old. RIP Angel.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Hugs.
I've listened to him since I was a child and this song makes me cry every time I hear it. This was his masterpiece in my opinion.
Quite possibly the greatest masterpiece ever recorded
True
Nice avatar! I also agree with your sentiment
Thanks for the music Tom Petty. Oh how you touched my heart and soul. Mr. Cool forever! Your music is eternal. Never forgotten my brother. Always remembered. 💘
My daughter played this at her wedding. Beautiful song!
Huge fan of his. Another great artist gone too soon. Dearly missed. RIP TOM!! 🙏🙏💜💜
Hat
I had the honor of seeing him perform live May 25, 1994❤️ I'll never forget it
I imagine Tom, or any artist, would be honored to know his creation has such a heartfelt connection.
I’ve heard a lot of songs, but never one better than this.
So wistful and lovely. I miss him five years later.
I miss you Big bro 😭❤
This song gives me peace. Thanks Tom, You are incredibly missed.
One of the many ways to appreciate TP&H is to pick one layer of a song and just pay attention to it for the whole song. It helps me appreciate just how many layers there are, and how fantastic each musician is. This time, I focused on just the wonderfully fluttering piano.
These guys were spellbinding.
As an empath, this song, this light has shined bright at a time that I'm at a crossroads in my life. This is confirmation that I belong amongst the wild flowers 💐. Message received, thank you.
What is an empath?
@@lyndaclancy7643 God opens your soul, your spirit, if you've read JOB in the bible, it's basically similar. God allows evil to test your faith in him, you must learn to Walk through the dark times of your life, from childhood, forgive and heal your inner self. you learn to read energy as well as people's motives. That's just a taste of being an empath.
@@lyndaclancy7643 Definitely NOT somebody who is all about themselves.
Such a calming song.
Yes for sure 👍🌟
I'm just grateful that I was able to see Tom and the Heartbreakers in concert several times. One of the true high points of my life! What AWESOME concerts they were!❤❤❤
Ditto
Same here. Had to be like 1999 on the lawn at The Woodlands in Houston TX. Had this group of 5 or so friends back then, thick as thieves right out of high school. One of them had a birthday that weekend and he and his mom had bought tickets months before with some other friends. Me and another guy were not in on the ticket purchase so we were bummed out, sitting on the couch all by ourselves when the phone rings, couple dudes backed out and 2 tickets up for grabs. We jumped up and hauled ass. Best concert ever. Everyone fro. 16 to 60+ all in harmony in the great lawn. Lots of hippie lettuce being shared, everyone happy, amazing music. I've been searching for that harmony at uh dress of other concerts since then. Never been matched. Met this hot chick and dated her all summer. Best day ever.
I saw Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at Nationwide Arena? Wildflowers tour. Asked a roadie where the gargoyles disappeared at intermission.
I am lucky I saw him once
Didn’t know much about Tom Petty back in the day (knew the big hits) and my friend called and said I’ve got an extra ticket to go see him. Hey why not… best concert to this day. The harmony and happiness in the crown and on stage was infectious. No fancy props needed. Just him and the band. We sang our hearts out. Was lucky enough to take my kids to a couple concerts. I will never feel that nature high again when I would see him floating around on that stage telling us to join in. And always the thank you…thank you very much at the end. Love you Tom!❤
I'm trying to build up the courage to sing/play this for my dad at his wedding-- one of the few times I've seen him cry was when Tom died. It's fine if I suck but it'll be hard not to cry myself!!
My first concert was their tour in support of this album. It was incredible
_You belong somewhere you feel free_ 💚
Parks and Recreation
My brother passed in 2020 from a long 10 year battle with addiction. He liked Tom Petty. I can totally see why my Dad made a DVD our first Christmas without him. It was filled with just pictures of him. Some I had never seen before. Wildflowers was one of the songs he used for background music. Rips my heart out and makes it flutter all at the same time.
This was the song my dad and I danced to at my wedding
A dear friend of mine, rocker Bobby Hollar gave me this song before he passed away from alcoholism. I will always cherish it.
For my Sister 🙏 who passed tragically in an area where nothing grows. But I know she is among the wildflowers & butterflies & the ocean ever since that awful morning. Happy Birthday Sis 🦋
And thank you Tom 🎶
Both Resting In Peace 🕊️ 🌹
My grandma passed yesterday and this song really makes me think of her ❤️
My headphones got busted today... it gave me the chance to hear the incredible background music. It normally sounds so effortless, I never realized how much thought and talent went into making the song. We miss you, Tom Petty!
Beautiful Song 🎵. Tom Petty is a LEGEND
this has been "my song" my whole life, my mom made it my song because she said it always reminded her of me. I finally found the song after searching forever:')
Thank God, Tom family came together. And not Drag his Legacy through the mud. Rest in paradise Tom Petty. 🙏
This was the first song I played in my mustang the first day I got her. This song will continue to remind me of my car. I love her ❤
I have always loved Tom.. I loved all his music all of my life... My dear mom passed away 2 weeks ago.. sadly Tom never made 89 like Sally my beautiful mom. This song will be played at her funeral. .. they were both free spirits... God bless them both. Xxxx
I picked this song for my daughter's Father-Daughter dance at her wedding in October. She agreed. It was perfect. I cried.
my mom said this is her special song for me and i'm so glad it is :)
Tom was, is and always will be pure gold.
My Son lost His Beloved Wife of 49 years old. My Nephew, Pastor Todd Zielinski played his Guitar and Sang this Song at her Funeral. Such Beautiful Words❤ Love & Miss you Sweet April😢
Simple yet so beautiful
Whispy sweet; under-appreciated/over-fab; harmony plus romance; without females we don't exist. Tom says this gracefully before he expired. Cheers to you, Tom! * Cav *
tom is among the wild flowers
“You deserve the deepest of cover!”
If anyone sees this please play this at my funeral. Tom Petty is one of the main reasons I stayed alive as long as I did
I played this at my daughter’s funeral. Please stay alive.
My sisters chose this song for my brother’s funeral.
Are you past your due date? Overstayed your Welcome 😅 j/k😊
Please tell your loved ones, you want this song, for the time you fly free... until then, live strong, live happy, and smile at every day, sunny, or rainy, and every duck on the pond, and every flower... there are so many things in this life to be thankful for, until we make that journey. But always know, we may not know each other in person, but, you at least have a little old curly headed gypsy woman in Cincinnati pulling for you, and on your side, and hoping every day, you choose to find something to be joyful for... sending you lots of love...
💜💙😘💙💜
This song really touched my heart. After 34 years My oldest son decided he wanted nothing to do with his parents and brothers. In a way it was like a death. I finally realized I had to let him go. Hopefully he will come back to his family someday.
It's always the simple songs like this that get to you. Another great example would be "Songbird" by Fleetwood Mac. Just an instrument or two, a beautiful voice, and pure, honest lyrics.....
If they don't play this at my funeral, I'm not dying
It´s gonna be the song I wanna play on the wedding from my daughter !🤩
What a true legend and we can all be happy that we were greased by his presence whether you're hearing his music for the first time went to his concert or been a longtime fan of his music because it's timeless and it will never get old so wherever he is I hope that he's rocking out and having a blast and that people will continue to discover his music or rediscover his music or help other people become a lifelong Petty fan.
This touches the bare essence of my soul
Heard it first in that episode of parks & rec where Ann Perkins and Chris Traeger leave Pawnee. The song perfectly encapsulated the emotions of that episode and I simply had to look it up. I want this played at my funeral
I love this song so much. My lovelife is as much as misery right now...
I hear you bro.
such an amazing songwriter/story teller! Great tune to strum along to!
My wife died from colon cancer on 10/09/2022 This song seems fitting for her. We were married 26 years. Knew each other 32 years. She battled cancer for seven years, went through over a hundred chemo treatments, 3 clinical trials. It's almost coming up on 3 weeks since she passed. I still don't know what is going on. I still can't believe that my love is not beside me. I don't know what to do. I was the one who told her that she was going to die. The cancer had spread to her lungs. So lost.
At 41 after surviving stage 3 breast cancer , losing so many people I thought cherished me , leaving my home going to find myself and the ones who truly except and love me ......time to Fly !!
Let the Blessings Be for All ❤
Beautiful! Your Kegend Lives On! 🎉
I just want to dance in the wildflower’s when I listen to this 🌻🥰
Beautiful tune from the master
Thank you Tom 🙏
The last verse where the piano kicks in is beautiful
So incredibly sorry for your loss! This song definitely pulls at your heartstrings when it comes to loss.. I'm coming up on 6 years when I lost my ex and this song feels like a tribute to him! 💕
I love this song so freaking much 😭
Think Im goin to Utah to see the desert flowers that bloom in the winter.
