Wild Eyes (Thomas Petty)
VERSE I:
You used to look wild-eyed;
Back when there was mystery in your smile.
You seem so hungry, and deprived.
Oh you played it so sly,
The way you made it seem so do-or-die.
You used to try to live your life so high.
CHORUS
And that don't make no difference now,
'Cause you're hard to recognize
Without those wild, wild eyes.
Now you're just a captive inside.
INTERLUDE
Remember when we used to say,
"Only time can fade away"?
Yes, and now it seems to complicate,
What is gone, and what remains?
Wonder if we're still the same.
Wonder if we're still the same inside.
VERSE II:
Oh you had a long ride,
With me you feel restless and confined,
Because you had to leave so much behind.
And you used to look wild-eyed;
Back when there was mystery in your smile,
You seem so hungry and so deprived.
CHORUS
But that don't make no difference now,
'Cause you're hard to recognize
Without those wild, wild eyes.
Now you're just a captive inside.
CHORUS
But that don't make no difference now,
'Cause you're hard to recognize
Without those wild, wild eyes.
Now you just look empty and resigned,
Yeah now you just look empty inside.

I played bass on this song and sang the harmony vocal. I thought this should've been the A-side of the single release. Depot Street is a cool tune, but it was too different for radio programmers. Rest In Peace, Tom.....
The bass was the first thing I noticed when I heard this. Any other tracks you played on?
Hey Danny - it's Holly Marie! Great job on this, way better than a B-side! xx
After the first TP & Heartbreakers album came out when I was 12, I was a fanatic, I sought out everything I could find in the back of the Trouser Press, I got the Mudcrutch 45, 2 copies. "Wild Eyes" was definitely the "A" side for me! It remained one of my favorite TP songs, probably tied or equal to "American Girl".
What an honor to play on this
@@misterfat4613 I remember those listing in Trouser Press!
Tom was just 25 here, but he knew where he was going. Glad we were invited to go with him. RIP our dear Tom.
Thanks for posting this and with the lyrics.
Really good song. Now need to find Depot Street. Think Wild Eyes could have been an A side.
I wish I could download a static free copy of this song. It's a great one that I would love to add to my TP collection.
I love the piano on this!!! SaaaaLUTE Mr. Tench!!
What a song!!!
He knew back then they would be big time some day and he stayed faithful to the men of mud crutch that didn’t get to make as big as the Heartbreakers.
Just had this song in my head but lost my old cassette it was on. Thanks so much for this! Awesome pics.
You have quite the collectors' item here. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for posting this!!!!!
What a great song! Thanks for uploading this!
tpheartbreaker441. Glad your enjoying the song, at the minute I don't have any lyrics but I can have a search or even try working them out myself and add them here for future
Who the hell is the one person that disliked this? 'Tis a pity.
Mudcrutch, Some real magic going on here
Loving this
I love this song. Mudcrutch sounds entirely different then TP and the Heartbreakers . They sound 60s to mid 70s. I grew up with that music. Did they have albums?
This should have been on Playback
And this wasn't on the box set why????
you should upload every early mudcrutch song you could find;)
Amen to that.

Went back and listened and only place hear Dylan like was first few lines after interlude.
🐆
HELL YES!!....ive been looking for this song. i heard it on the documentry but and i was anxous to here the whole thing for a long time. by the way AmN1892 got any lyrics.
When will iTunes discover this and download it for us fans?
“Wild Eyes”🦆
check out the link in the description. i think this is cause is understood
and the label thought they oughta break this up and do better? just weren't happy unless they could manipulate 'their' artists
i wish this got major attention, but if the company didn’t interfere, we wouldn’t have gotten the heartbreakers
Tom sure played a mean bass
Hey Stefano, Tom played rhythm guitar and I played bass. But thank you anyway!
well, the more your know.. :D I had no idea, my respects to you!
Was Mike playing on this track also? I've been wrecking my head lately trying to figure out the guitar breaks!
@@JBRTelecaster93 Theres atleast two guitar tracks, rhythm left channel, mikes or leadons (or both) lead right
@@WJHProduction Tom Leadon wasn't in the band when this was recorded in 1974. That's TP on rhythm guitar and Mike playing all the fills and the solo, and I played bass. And of course Benmont on keys and Randall on drums.
Damn he was even good at playing bass guitar lol. Good song.
Anyone hear some Bob Dylan in here?
Yes. Tom seemed to be singing like Dylan.
Tom Petty sang like himself. He had an unusual voice, which I think made him stick out, in a great way and helped his career and think he had a natural inclination to sound like Dylan. He also could use his voice in different ways,
depending on the song. I'd have to listen to it again to see if I hear any Dylan. I think
his lyrics are really good for so early on in his career. Love ❤ TP. Never be another
like him.
If you've listened to Mike Campbell and his
band, he really sounded so much like Tom,
especially in 2018, 2019. He's said he is trying not to as much, but I loved it. After
50 yrs of playing, singing and just knowing
eachother.....plus coming from same place in Florida, there are similarities. Hope to get to go to a Mike Campbell and Dirty Knobs
concert sometime.
@@susanmurrell635 I saw The Dirty Knobs a few weeks ago. Out of the the following I’ve seen; Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynne and Phil Collins.. the Knobs put on the best show for sure. Very memorable.
sorry not got cause is understood, ill have a look for it though and see what i can do
That piano player though . . .
