    Never much of a Tom Petty fan, but I used to watch this video a lot in my younger days, and I really like the song-it’s kinda weird and trippy. The video is pretty damn creative, even by today’s standards.

    One of the backup singers sound like Stevie Nicks. But it was her that inspired Tom Petty to write this song.

    Tom Petty is a much better Mad Hatter than Johnny Depp.

  13. Cuteblondie1972 says:

    i agree, Johnny Depp is sexy and all but he looked a bit scary as the mad hatter in the coming attractions of Alice and wonderland

    @ClassicRockSovereign

    Agree, they look identical. And I’m not talking about the costume, but Petty’s facial features, which do bear a very strong resemblance to the original illustrations by John Tenniel for the Alice books. It’s just as if Tenniel had drawn the hatter based off of Tom’s face.

    @davo6 How is Obama related to music? xD

    @sonikku1011
    Where did you hear that from?

  20. davo6 says:

    Dang, you mention Omamba and everybody jumps your case. Oh well, you’ll have plenty of WHINE time available if his HEALTHcare package passes. Anyhow, Dave Stewart is playing a sitar, the ‘guitar’ eqivalent of India.

  21. davo6 says:

    It became popular in Britain and the U.S. when George Harrison decided to give it a go on a couple of his tunes. They’d all visited India to visit some guru dude and George met a guy named Ravi Shankar, who was like the Eric Clapton of sitar playing. Ravi fathered a daughter and they named her Nora…Nora Jones. I just absolutley LOVE music…ALL music. That’s why I HATE rap. THAT Crap is NOT music….and ANYONE who takes the stage so they can MIME their music are RIPPING YOU OFF!!!

  22. davo6 says:

    …and thank you for your time. Hey, one more thing…Johnny Depp makes an excellent Madd Hatter, but he can’t sing. Petty is SUPERB!!!!!
