I don't know why it took me 6 years to buy this album, but I have most of the others and this one is classic Petty at its best.

Love this song, but interesting references to dead things in this song:
-Family headstones... bag of dry bones
-Samuel Clemens (he's dead)... white linens

I'd like to pull this song apart some more.
