My wife and I were listening to my Pandora Channel on the ROKU device.  Lots of songs, country, R&B, Beach Music, and this one.  My wife said she liked the song, as do I.  It is fitting for today. 

I Won't Back Down

I like the version sung by Johnny Cash but it was written by Tom Petty.

If you are interested in the songs background and what inspired Tom Petty to write the song, you can find that here.

I like both versions of that song.  Tom Petty was the one I listened to most growing up which is more mainstream and more widely popular and funnier video,  more mellow.  Johnny Cash singing it seems more serious and like do NOT mess with me I WON"T BACK DOWN!  RIP both of them both will never be forgotten.  cooldude

Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne were 2 of the best songwriters of my generation.  cooldude
