So I’d come back for days playing that tape, thinking there must be something wrong here because this just came too easy. I actually only spent three and a half minutes on that whole song. I mean, I just played it into a tape recorder and I played the whole song and I never played it again. Stream of consciousness: words, music, chords. I just took a deep breath and it came out. "Wildflowers" is also Tom Petty's fourth most streamed solo song (and seventh overall) on Spotify, even surpassing the same album's big hit " You Don't Know How it Feels". The title of the November 2020 book Somewhere You Feel Free: Tom Petty and Los Angeles comes from a lyric in the song. It is a comprehensive re-release of "Wildflowers" including the home version (released as a single in August) along with the album Wildflowers and many unearthed gems and demos/home recordings. On the same day, it was officially announced that on October 16, a posthumous album titled Wildflowers & All the Rest would be released. The video contains never-before-seen footage shot by Martyn Atkins during the recording of "Wildflowers". On August 20, 2020, a posthumous release of the home recorded demo version of the song was released as a digital single alongside a music video. It was one of the non-singles which were included on the compilation The Best of Everything (others were " Southern Accents", " Square One", "Angel Dream" and "Dreamville"). Petty also stated "Wildflowers" was easy to write and compose. The song has gone on to become one of the most beloved in Petty's catalog. AllMusic describes it as having a simple but effective folk-based chord progression, with a sprightly, almost country-oriented rhythm. The song became quite popular in concerts, and though it was not released as a single, it charted at #16 on the Billboard Hot Rock Songs chart, at #11 on the Billboard Rock Digital Song Sales and at #3 on the Billboard Lyric Find. " Wildflowers" is a popular song by Tom Petty and the opening track from the album of the same name. " You Don't Know How It Feels (Home Recording)"
