My oldest step brother used to play guitar at night when he was allowed to stay with us when I was younger, and he would sing Tom Petty songs, and help me sleep. I remember so clearly on noe of my birthdays he waited until the parents went to bed and he gave me the only gift I got from him, due to his wild lifestyle in those years. Anyway the gift was "greatest hits of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers" I loved the album and still have it. He passed away 3 years ago and now Tom Petty, may they both rest in peace with blessing and love from the Lord. Also a special thanks to the ones who read this, and everyone who keeps Tom Petty in their hearts
Heather...I LOVE Tom's greatest hits. It's been spinning around in my car for the last 6 months. It's probably my favourite greatest hits collection that I have - up there with Fleetwood Mac and John Mellencamp. How truly blessed we are to be touched by the music of Tom and his boys. RIP Tom.
Not a fan of Lady Antebellum but I respect that they showed respect where respect is due, and did damn good tribute. Much respect to this cover. It was heartfelt, and well done. Long live Tom Petty and great American Rock and Roll
Its sad that there were 23 crotchety Gen Xers and Baby Boomers who thumbs downed this video (so stuck in their all Gen Y music sucks ways they cannot accept a Millenial band can ever give a great tribute to a Baby Boomer Legend, do a great song in that way). I am a Gen Xer myself and and gave it a thumbs up. While not a fan of Gen Y recording artists in general this was a great and heartfelt cover by Lady A. Petty would be proud.
Tom Petty is one of the greatest song writers of all time. Pure from beginning to end. I grew up listening to his music, and I am hurting because he is gone. I have been watching and listening to a lot of his music on TH-cam. For my therapy, I guess. This, right here, is the only place I have found where there is nothing but love and respect being paid to him. I don't know why, but some people just feel the need to come along and dump on everything. I don't see that here, and I am glad for that. This is a beautiful, heart felt tribute. I guess some people are lacking in heart, and I feel sorry for them. Fortunately, those people are not posting here.
Thank you to Lady A for recognizing the best bands in the 70s and 80s great reminitionon of the song good job great arrangement Charles,Dave and Hillary
I am angry that I didn't motivate myself to make it to his concert this summer.Many years ago it was my son's first concert. 5 years ago,my boss, my best friend and his Lady, and my sister attended. Magical.... This is my favorite tribute.
I saw him live and during this song, a white owl came flying out of the rafters. It was an outdoor venue and it was so powerful. I felt like Tom Petty had some voodoo magic that night.
I grew up in the 90's with all of the great rock musicians that od'ed or committed suicide, but none of them saddened me the way losing Tom Petty did. Petty is the first of my favorite musicians to pass. Hearing his songs makes me sad. I hope the mourning passes soon, so I can enjoy his songs again.
Wow-this is the only band I've seen which ends, not starts, a concert with a tribute! What a classy nod to one of Lady A's musical icons, & a lovely, moving rendition.
Very nice, one of the best I have heard. I was at the Gator game Saturday, one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. Went off to college in Gainesville with Damn the Torpedos in my back seat. He's been my favorite musician for most of my life. Tough to see him go, but it's great to see all the tributes being paid to one of the best ever.
I found Tom Petty through the the Wild Flowers album, been a fan since. Learning to fly will always be on my playlist, rest in peace Tom, you leave a great musical legacy. An excellent tribute .
Thank you sooooooo much to whoever posted this.. I was at the show but missed the encore due to needing the loo but could hear it .. This was a fantastic show and tribute at my first ever Lady A show, I'm not really into Country music but love Lady A, Thanks so much again for posting
"I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings" well you do now like the other angels, Tom. Thanks for everything and may you rest in peace! Much love and greetings from Norway!
Robyn Ray even u Californians appreciate a southern man and his soul. He is probably the only artist to influence every single genre of music in some way
Was a special Moment to be there to witness this beautiful tribute to this beautiful Man. Rest In Peace Tom Petty we will miss you. Thank you for the legacy you left us with ❤❤
Thank you....now wipe the tears from my face. Tom grew up in my home town and he never forgot where he came from. I think that maybe why his music is so good, he kept it real. I could say the same for Lady Antebellum!
Tom Petty was a visionary this song is a definition of life .... life stories make the best songs not to many have this gift thank God for sending Tom here to show us a way
Best songwriter of his era. It's incredible how many hits he wrote. Of all the tributes I've seen, this is one of the best. Not a fan of this band, but this was very well done.
Life is so unfair - take the great way too early. Life growing up was Tom Petty, Tom Petty & more Tom Petty. Still doesn't get any easier, sometimes question everything. Memories live forever.
I've been watching all these rock bands doing tributes to Tom. This performance is the best arranged and performed of all I've seen. They could have a hit with a reissue of this song.
I am so crying right now. I miss him This brings tears to my eyes. RIP Tom Petty. So sorry to see you go!💔💔 This is so beautiful. Tom's influence was everywhere.
A VERY emotional and heartfelt Tribute indeed, the Audience were fantastic too, and showed their respect whilst this song was being played. Nice One to everyone involved.........R.I.P....Tom Petty........
reints74 I don’t disagree that they had a legend as an influence but I hope you haven’t formed an opinion on their noteworthiness based on one tribute song.
Funny this is one of my favorites from Tom Petty and a hell of a cover by a cool band. I do miss Tom lots. R.I.P may you Roy and George be jamming in heaven now.
Not at all a fan of contemporary country music , but this was brilliant. One of the better covers I’ve ever seen and was moved almost to tears! Awesome!

Yes, we are blessed with their music and all the wonderful memories
Heather Halepeska Tom will always be in my heart & on every play list I have
So sorry you lost your brother. He left you a fine gift.
As long as you remember - he will live forever ~~~
Tom made a huge contribution to the wonderful American songbook. Lovely tribute to a another legend taken from us too soon. RIP
Tom Petty would be very proud of this wonderful rendition of his song
Not a fan of Lady Antebellum but I respect that they showed respect where respect is due, and did damn good tribute. Much respect to this cover. It was heartfelt, and well done. Long live Tom Petty and great American Rock and Roll
agreed

I was at the Glasgow concert when they played this song, brilliant way to end the show
The dislike button shouldn't even be on tom pretty definitely a legend and a straightforward guy we will miss you tom R.I.P.

THree years later, I can't hear a tribute without crying my eyes out and I'm 66 (same age as Tom when he left us) and I wonder why *I* deserve more?
I am angry that I didn't motivate myself to make it to his concert this summer.Many years ago it was my son's first concert. 5 years ago,my boss, my best friend and his Lady, and my sister attended. Magical.... This is my favorite tribute.
This to me... is love. This tribute brings me to tears.
Beautiful version. Tom has finally learnt to fly. We'll miss you, heartbreaker.
He was truly an original,who left us with several memorable songs,that will never get old and will never die.
Patrick Perry I'm actually 😢
This is so beautiful. Tom's influence was everywhere.
I am so crying right now. I miss him
Sobbing. Again. Day four. God.
Was going to write tears are flowing right now but you beat me to it.. Here's to you Tom...R.I.P.
I know. It still sucks. Very nice interpretation of the tune, though.
so am I
I saw him live and during this song, a white owl came flying out of the rafters. It was an outdoor venue and it was so powerful. I felt like Tom Petty had some voodoo magic that night.
I had never heard of Lady Antebellum before - I do now. Respect. Never forget this tribute. Thank you.
Charles captivated the audience so perfectly, goosebumps!
Tom would be smiling down and nodding with respect and approval. Great tribute
I grew up in the 90's with all of the great rock musicians that od'ed or committed suicide, but none of them saddened me the way losing Tom Petty did. Petty is the first of my favorite musicians to pass. Hearing his songs makes me sad. I hope the mourning passes soon, so I can enjoy his songs again.
My favorite too. It never used to make me cry, but now, always.
John Connor Agreed
John Conner - Same here.
Wow-this is the only band I've seen which ends, not starts, a concert with a tribute! What a classy nod to one of Lady A's musical icons, & a lovely, moving rendition.
old crow medicine show did too
Dylan ended his show the day after Toms passing to this song
at 3:15 when he turned around and saw Tom's picture and just sang to him was what Tom was all about. He did that to all of us
Finally, someone got the "Tribute" right.
Hats off L A!
This may be the best tribute performance to Tom Petty that there is, so far.
Very nice, one of the best I have heard. I was at the Gator game Saturday, one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. Went off to college in Gainesville with Damn the Torpedos in my back seat. He's been my favorite musician for most of my life. Tough to see him go, but it's great to see all the tributes being paid to one of the best ever.
Tom Petty, a good man to ride the river with...the background music to my life...will treasure always.
Johnny Cash nice
Great show of respect... thank you for sharing.. singing.. and beautiful.. rip tom petty..
This got me. Been putting it off all week, but tears were rolling down this man's face. RIP Tom Petty. The Great American Rocker.

Glad I wasn’t the only one
Nothing wrong with shedding a tear for this beautiful version and tribute to a legend. I did.
Piper McFuzz yes he was & the best song writer . ❤️❤️❤️🎤🎸🎩
Piper McFuzz that’s right Rock & Roll as Tom always said. You can’t have rock without roll.
I found Tom Petty through the the Wild Flowers album, been a fan since. Learning to fly will always be on my playlist, rest in peace Tom, you leave a great musical legacy. An excellent tribute .

"I'm learning to fly but I ain't got wings" well you do now like the other angels, Tom. Thanks for everything and may you rest in peace! Much love and greetings from Norway!
A raconteur to the end ~ the songbook of my youth. He later moved to my little hometown of Encino, California saw him many times gone too soon.
Robyn Ray even u Californians appreciate a southern man and his soul. He is probably the only artist to influence every single genre of music in some way
This brings tears to my eyes. RIP Tom Petty. So sorry to see you go!💔💔
BEAUTIFUL....I am Crying....Miss ya, my Florida brother.......

The world is a more beautiful place because of Tom Petty.
Was a special Moment to be there to witness this beautiful tribute to this beautiful Man. Rest In Peace Tom Petty we will miss you. Thank you for the legacy you left us with ❤❤
I still can't believe Tom Petty's gone! I feel like I lost a family member
Lady A did a great job with the Greg allman tribute earlier this summer was well. Good on them.
As a Florida boy, a part of me is gone too. I love this song. Sing it loud and proud for Tom!! Gone but Not Forgotten. 💔😢
Tom petty was a true legend
He’s flying now! RIP, Tom Petty! 🙏🏽
I can't believe he's gone, RIP Mr. Petty, you are loved and respected by so many and thank you.
Thank you for that introduction ❤
Thank you....now wipe the tears from my face. Tom grew up in my home town and he never forgot where he came from. I think that maybe why his music is so good, he kept it real. I could say the same for Lady Antebellum!
Wow! This band is incredible, they added their twist to a classic and twisted a tear from this mans(me) eye.
Beautiful
Rest easy Petty.
Beautiful and heart-felt. Thank you LA.
Tom may be gone from us on earth. But his spirit will go on forever with his hours and hours of epic music
Every one ☝️ Tom Petty you’re tribute shows just how much he impacted your life

Best songwriter of his era. It's incredible how many hits he wrote. Of all the tributes I've seen, this is one of the best. Not a fan of this band, but this was very well done.
A wonderful rendition and a magnificent tribute to Tom
Tom is smiling down to you. Lovely tribute!
Life is so unfair - take the great way too early. Life growing up was Tom Petty, Tom Petty & more Tom Petty. Still doesn't get any easier, sometimes question everything. Memories live forever.
I believe that was the most heartfelt and soulful tribute that I have heard in a long time,
Thank you LA...
Look up Chris Stapelton..tribute to Tom Petty..not to shabby himself
Check out Bob Dylan's the night after he passed of the same song might be the best of all
Their voice timbre here is what makes the group unique, and covering that particular Petty song doesn't hurt- at all.
I've been watching all these rock bands doing tributes to Tom. This performance is the best arranged and performed of all I've seen. They could have a hit with a reissue of this song.
Completely agree. Best Tom tribute I've seen.
@@zona999 its wonderful. I wonder if they put it in any albums?
It should be more widely heard.
Check out Dylans learning to fly he played the night after his passing Dylan jokes up
I am so crying right now. I miss him
This brings tears to my eyes. RIP Tom Petty. So sorry to see you go!💔💔
This is so beautiful. Tom's influence was everywhere.
Beautiful tribute to one of the best! Thank you for posting. ....❤️😥. Godspeed Tom. ❤️
I love tom petty. And this band did a super freakin awesome tribute song. Thx
What a phenomenal arrangement. Did this exist before? If not, this is impressive. Tom deserves such tribute, he was a true American Legend!
Peter Leahy Well since it was done after his death, I would say this did not exist before
Brittany B There's an acoustic version available on I-Tunes.
They're very good at arranging.
Great tribute! Tom Petty was such a fantastic songwriter--I actually have pangs of envy...all out of pure respect and admiration of course
I love that Tom is getting the honor and respect he so earned, Thanks for the upload and thanks to Lady Antebellum.
Wow! What a great version!
Thanks so much for posting this
A VERY emotional and heartfelt Tribute indeed, the Audience were fantastic too, and showed their respect whilst this song was being played. Nice One to everyone involved.........R.I.P....Tom Petty........
Never heard this group before, now I have. Nothing noteworthy except they had a legend as an influence.
reints74 I don’t disagree that they had a legend as an influence but I hope you haven’t formed an opinion on their noteworthiness based on one tribute song.
WOW!!! Very good tribute, and sounds different in a very good way!!! Tom Petty was truly a great artist, his music sounds good any way you play it!!!
Perfect. Can't stop crying.
Great cover, thank you! RIP Tom, you have your wings.
Tom would've been smilin down on you guys!! You done a southern MAN Proud LADY A.
Thank you to whom ever recorded this magic! I'm in tears. I loved Tom so much. 💔
Rocked my Son and Grandson to sleep to this song. RIP Tom. Thanks for the tunes.

Such a beautiful tribute to the great man. RIP Tom, your loss spans the oceans 😥
Funny this is one of my favorites from Tom Petty and a hell of a cover by a cool band. I do miss Tom lots. R.I.P may you Roy and George be jamming in heaven now.
