"You Don't Know How It Feels" is a song and the lead single from Tom Petty's 1994 album Wildflowers. It reached number one on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart and number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1]
MTV and many radio stations aired a censored version of "You Don't Know How It Feels," reversing the word "joint" in "let's roll another joint." [2] Nevertheless, the music video won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Male Video in 1995.
Girl on LSD
Petty originally intended the B-side of the single, "Girl on LSD," to appear on Wildflowers, but Warner Bros. refused because it was too controversial.[3] In the song Petty sings about being in love with multiple girls on different drugs: marijuana, cocaine, LSD, beer, china white (a slang term for heroin) and coffee. In the chorus Petty states: "Through ecstasy, crystal meth and glue/I found no drug compares to you/all these pills, all this weed/I dunno just what I need."
