’s family members came together Saturday night to quickly release a statement blasting the president for using the rocker’s “I Won’t Back Down” at his Tulsa campaign rally, saying Petty “would never want a song of his used for a campaign of hate. He liked to bring people together.”“was in no way authorized to use this song to further a campaign that leaves too many Americans and common sense behind.
The declaration was signed by Adria and Annakim Petty, his two daughters, as well as both Dana Petty, his wife at the time of his death in 2017, and Jane Petty, his ex-wife. “I Won’t Back Down,” one of the most enduring songs in Petty’s catalog, was used as Trump’s walk-on music at the already legendarily under-attended rally at the BOK Centre in Oklahoma.
Seems kind of Petty.
I wonder if the RollingStones knows he also always plays “Sympathy For The Devil” at his rallies too.
Good for them.
Trumps private lawyer Barr will now sue The Petty Estate🤨🤨😚😚😚😚😚
No respect for Mr.Tom Petty and his legacy🙏 (Respect)
That song is too slow anyway. Use Dwight Yoakum, or new talent.
pipybur1 Should have had Kid Rock perform live. That’s might have filled 3 more seats too.
Now that Tom Petty is trending here’s my favorite Petty song & go to karaoke song “American Girl” featured in Fast Times at Ridgemont High I do a mean Petty impersonation LISTEN
well done!
Didn’t RollingStones tell him to stop playing their song 4 years ago? Yet he plays it at every single event
Who cares. I could never stand tompetty or his music. I remember seeing an interview where another celebrity said Tom Perry was the nastiest person she ever met. I believed it then. This just confirms it.
Oh boo hoo! Loved it! MAGA2020
🙌🙌🙌🙌✊
Are they sure that they want to start?
Bless Tom's family for doing this. They know that their dad wouldn't want his songs to be used like this. They should have had a pre-approved list of songs that they're allowed to use.
So happy they did....we can all sleep better
Lol you and Democrats. Hey, good thing you have your priorities straight. You've got nothing else because you know JoeBiden is a corpse.
I think Joe Biden should start using Zombie Zoo. 🧟♀️🧟♂️
Fake News! They have no legal authority at this point. I won’t say more as not to cause further family conflict.
tsipr94 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Well prepare to get his legacy to be tainted, do this family have any respect to the late Tom Petty. Sad family indeed also, not cool to thearten the Persident.
And yet they cannot do anything about it. These stories are so tiresome. The venue covers the rights to play music. How many times does this need to be explained?
colindonnell I don't understand how he's legally allowed to do this! If it was a Democrat he'd immediately be on top of suing them!
Trump thought he could get away with it since the great Tom Petty is dead. Thank you Petty family for standing up for Tom who would have not liked it being used at Trump's propaganda rally.
Respect the dead guys.
Tom Petty Family & The Rolling Stones have told the trump campaign to stop using their music - they need to sue, call them out publicly... He should not get away with these infractions 😡
He should’ve used Free Fallin’ - it describes his campaign more accurately
Love it. Tom would not like this disgrace.
Cut him some slack, he has to back down, he will fall down if he walks forward. Leather soles, ya know....
Don't they have to clear this before using it at campaign rallies?
Take a number
I was waiting for this.
Go after the turd!
yup
