Tom Petty who died of Cardiac arrest on October 2nd was cited by Hanson as in inspiration.
During their set at the Corona Theatre, Hanson covered Petty’s Wildflowers and surely gave their audience a moment to grieve and reflect.
“Tom Petty has been a huge inspiration, his musical genius has inspired us over and over to push our own music to new heights. Following his tragic passing we could not take the stage without sharing one of our most beloved Tom Petty songs, Wildflowers. The heavenly choir has never sounded as good as it does today”.
“You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere all bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you
Go away somewhere all bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free
You belong in a boat out at sea
You belong with your love on your arm
You belong somewhere you feel free
Run away, go find a lover
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve the deepest of cover”
Run away, let your heart be your guide
You deserve the deepest of cover”
Wildflowers Tom Petty
