Echo

from The Tom Petty Project

This is a very grown up song and as we discussed on Wildflowers, it’s a song that wouldn’t resonate as much with a person in their teens or early twenties as it would with someone who has lived and lost. You need that weight of experience to truly feel the bone-weariness that Tom projects at times and the hesitant accusations he ends with. It’s a collage of emotions and narrative dissonance that perfectly fleshes out what a broken relationship feels like even when a new, healthy one is coming into focus.Song: https://youtu.be/OjC1Idf9w_4Live at the Fillmore '99: https://tinyurl.com/2wtkm3jdThis episode is dedicated to the memory of Margaret "Cookie" Donnelly Obituary.
