“Somebody” is a song that desperately should be THE SONG on a soundtrack of an Oscar awarded movie about some criminal activity.
Today’s youth probably don’t know much, if anything, about Humble Pie. Maybe 30 Days In The Hole.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ second effort, “You’re Gonna Get It” was their first “gold” record, and had several hits, but my favorite cut is “Hurt”. Love when songs sound like they are almost a tuneup and fit perfectly into the song. Hurt does that.
