It climbed the charts like a Springsteen, 76, song.
Instead, one of the most enduring rock songs of the 1980s was actually Don Henley's biggest solo hit.
But while the Boss was enjoying one of the biggest years of his career, Henley was carving out a lane of his own.
Campbell recorded the now-iconic instrumental track on a drum machine at home and originally hoped Petty would use it. When that didn't happen, producer Jimmy Iovine played the demo for Henley, 79, who immediately connected with it and wrote lyrics about nostalgia, fading youth and the bittersweet feeling of looking back on a relationship that never quite left you.
The cinematic clip, filled with dreamlike California imagery, athletes and dancers, stood apart from many of the performance-heavy videos of the era. It ultimately took home Video of the Year at the 1985 MTV Video Music Awards, cementing the song as one of MTV's defining moments.
