The perfection of his delivery of “she’s a complex kid.” And of that first verse, the kind of thing that seems utterly effortless but only Petty seems to be able to do. (This is a criminally underrated album, by the way.)ġ5. The perfection of tone here and of Benmont Tench on the piano. The perfection of “You’ve got a heart so big, it could crush this town.” (And the perfection of Lindsay Buckingham on backing vocals.) The perfection of the chorus in this song. (I will always remember Tom Petty leading us on the chorus both times we saw him live.) Perfect sing-along at a Heartbreakers show.

Oh Lord, the perfection of Mike Campbell on the guitar in this song. (Also made into a perfect cover by Lone Justice.)

The perfection of the drums leading their harmony into the chorus.
