I'm afraid that today is when I break that promise - twice.

Set to a background of Petty's home movies in a room full of Petty paraphernalia, you can't help but feel a little bit emotional at this beautiful rendition of one of his best songs.

And if you read Petty's own words on how he came up with this song and how strongly he felt about it, well, it gets you in the feels too.
