Previously Unreleased Song by Tom Petty Surfaces

Tom Petty is one of music’s greatest artists. His impact on the world will live on forever as his songs continue to bring joy for generations to come. “For Real,” a previously unreleased song by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, has officially been released to the public. Petty did everything with authenticity throughout his storied career, always putting the music and his fans before everything. In this poignant and autobiographical song “For Real,” Petty sings about this feeling.

Tom Petty – The Best of Everything

“For Real” will be featured on the soon to be released album The Best Of Everything. It is due out March 1st. The Best Of Everything was born from Petty’s long-term desire to release what he thought were his biggest hits and the strongest material from his 40+ year career.

The family and bandmates of Petty rallied to fulfill his dream once again. Instead of chronological order, the special collection of cross-labels was sequenced as a hard-hitting playlist that gave equal prominence to the entire catalog, including songs from his solo projects, songs with world-class musicians The Heartbreakers, and essential elements from the reformed Mudcrutch. This new album will feature 38 remastered songs that capture the essence of Petty’s wildly diverse and much beloved musical history. You can pre-order the album on limited edition color vinyl here.
