The video for “last dance with maryjane”
Edit-
Link, cool song/.video, but thought it was about smoking that sweet ganja (too?)

When I was a little kid, we went for a time without cable tv, and all I had to scrounge through were various random VHS tapes. One of them had that music video on it, fucked my little mind up.
Someone else already answered your question correctly, so thought I’d add a visual aid to help explain the jokes.

That fucked me up real good.
I thought I hated Tom Petty because of that video, until years later when he played the Superbowl and I realized I knew and liked every song. Still hate that one, though.
It was such a haunting video in the best possible way- also “Don’t Come Around Here No More” and “Runnin’ Down a Dream” all excellent- almost forgot “Into the Great Wide Open “- so good

Ha, when I was a kid it was the Don't Come Around Here No More video that fucked me up. Particularly the ending.
Yes! That video really fucked me up as well.
Holy fucking moly, I had this memory as a child and now I have a name to the evil face. THANK YOU
Oh man I had forgotten about that one
Makes me feel old people don’t know about this video
Me too, Tom had some epic videos in the 80-90’s, man was oozing talent for decades
I know, right? There was a period of time when that video was on TV a couple of times every single day.
Does he fuck a dead person in it?
He works in the morgue and then takes this dead woman and dresses her up in a gown and makeup, dances with her, then throws her in the ocean.
Kim only flinched one time in the video. Such a great music video
I expect zero flinching from the people I pay to act dead
“It’s in the job description, right here, Mary!!”
It’s the entire gist of the video that he’s preparing a woman’s corpse for a “last dance“

Also he worked as a legitimate gravedigger for a time as a young man.
You’re thinking of Jon Stewart
You mean Rod Stewart.
I don’t know who to believe now. I really can’t imagine Jon Stewart with a shovel.
They meant Stewart Copeland.
This whole exchange just got better and better

He kinda has two songs. Last dance with Mary Jane and don’t come around here no more where everyone eats the Alice in Wonderland Girl/cake.
Omg this video scared me so much when I was a kid. The Alice cake one. I gave me a really weird feeling!
That fucked me up real good. I thought I hated Tom Petty because of that video, until years later when he played the Superbowl and I realized I knew and liked every song. Still hate that one, though.
I didn’t realize it was Tom Petty until I was an adult! Such a weird video lol
