Why it is here
- It was the last song Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers ever played live, closing the encore of their September 25, 2017 show at the Hollywood Bowl, just over a week before Petty's death. source
- Its jangling guitar riff, built on a Bo Diddley beat, was an homage to the Byrds, with Petty and Mike Campbell's twin guitars mirroring Roger McGuinn's 12-string sound. source
- The Strokes have admitted to Petty that they took the riff for their 2001 single "Last Nite" from this song. source
