"You Don't Know How It Feels" was the first single release from Wildflowers, and it was a big hit, reaching #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 (Petty's last Top 40 hit in the U.S.) and #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The first line of the chorus is "So let's get to the point / Let's roll another joint." Of course, on radio, they inserted some weird sounding gibberish word that sounded like "noojh" (which was actually "joint" backwards). So, smoke those noojhes if you got 'em today.

Retro Video of the Week: "You Don't Know How It Feels" by Tom Petty
Well folks, it's 4/20, so in honor of those who partake in the sweet leaf, I figured I'd give you an apropos Retro Video of the Week. Wildflowers was Tom Petty's triple-platinum 1994 non-Heartbreakers album (even though the Heartbreakers are the backing musicians on much of the album), and it proved that Petty was just as popular and relevant in the grunge and alt-rock era as ever before.
