Well, the wildflowers album was huge when I was in Jr. High (when I really started to get into music) so I'd have to say it's either Wildflowers, or You don't know how it feels. I still remember stealing that tape off my dad's dresser and putting it my walkman.

No way guys. "Refugee" is the best. Hands down. The song gives me chills down the spine like nobody's business.

"I Won't Back Down" is a distant second for me.

I still have my 45 of "The Waiting". The video of "Don't Come Around Here No More" still looks good today.

Great artist, great career.

As for best Petty tunes - I like Learning to Fly but it's overplayed.

So I'll go with Refugee.
