John 3:16 Jesus said "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."
I pray for God's peace upon his family and friends.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

He was someone that some of us older people liked to listen to.
thats fine but why mention that he isn't a gangsta rapper? what was the point? just to be petty as hell?

i was hoping Portland would've responded first. he is always sending me dope tracks of people i never heard before.

Tom Petty was one of my favorite artists. He was a rocker who would have rather played the blues. Did a lot of drugs and said he was hooked on heroin for a bit.
He didn't have the greatest voice, as it was very nasal......but, the guy could write songs and knew the importance of the back beat. Very rhythmic in my uneducated opinion.
Some of us hits were Last Dance w/Mary Jane [Swish, you would appreciate that one...LOL] Breakdown, Refugee, Stop Draggin' My Heart Around [w/Stevie Nicks,] Free Falling, American Girl, Don't Do Me Like That, I Need to Know, I Won't Back Down, and many, many more.
I love this version of "Breakdown." It's a live version and he throws a little Ray Charles in there.....which is absolutely awesome! It's a bad-ass song w/a great beat and is very sexy in an off-beat way.
Damn, Tom "Freaking" Petty is dead.
This one hurts! They all hurt, but this one hurts way more than most.

I struggle to believe this.
(chill dude)
Actually I do turn Swish on to some crazy good music fairly frequently. I bet somewhere in one of the mixes a Petty groove could be found. But he's no gansta rapper. At least that I'm aware...but we all have secret lives.
Earlier this year I downloaded the song Refugee to my MP3. It was the first Tom Petty song I've ever owned.
I wasn't much of a Tom Petty fan during his most popular period. (~1980)
Geez what a year for Rock 'n Roll.
Some 1981 headliner bands:
The Rolling Stones (as popular as ever!) REO Speedwagon Foreigner J Giels Band Blue Oyster Cult The Who Ozzy AC/DC The Police Eric Clapton The Kinks Journey Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band
Hey Swish, These old-timers say silly stuff but when you get a chance, youtube Refugee. That was my Fav Tom Petty song. Gone to young.
ill check it out. 3rd posted a track that i listened to and liked so now i'm on a youtube binge.
kinda sucks that i get to appreciate him, but only after it's too late.

Swish, Alot of people forget that those 70s rockers have not had too many hits lately. If you do not know about them, someone like you might not have heard them BEFORE they are dead. On the great things about growing up in NE Ohio was that you could hear all types of music.
anyway, i'm really feeling some of these songs i'm hearing.

We all know what you're inferring, arch: because he's young and black, Swish is into gangsta rap. Nice.
Yup, exactly. And when I was young and white and was into that I was...........wait, what was I? Swish has stated his music preference a fair amount, and gangster rap was one of them.
But, thanks to all the board psychologists for call me racist.
Tom Petty didn't sing opera either, so, if that gives me a label, go ahead and say it.
