Mary Jane's Last Dance
"Mary Jane's Last Dance" is a song written by Tom Petty and recorded by American rock band Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. It was recorded on July 22, 1993, while Petty was recording his ''Wildflowers'' album, and was produced by Rick Rubin, guitarist Mike Campbell, and Tom Petty.〔''Greatest Hits'' 2008 Reissue Liner Notes Pg. 12〕 The sessions would prove to be the last to include drummer Stan Lynch before his eventual departure in 1994. This song was first released as part of the ''Greatest Hits'' album in 1993.〔(Allmusic:Mary Jane's Last Dance )〕 It rose to #14 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, becoming his first ''Billboard'' Top 20 hit of the 1990s,〔(Billboard.com Artist Chart History )〕 and also topped the ''Billboard'' Album Rock Tracks chart for two weeks.〔Whitburn, Joel (2004). ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 8th Edition (Billboard Publications), page 490.〕

Asked if the song was about drugs,〔The chorus begins, "Last dance with Mary Jane/one more time to kill the pain"; "Mary Jane" is a common slang term for marijuana, and marijuana is believed to have the ability to kill pain.〕 Heartbreaker guitarist Mike Campbell said, "In the verse there is still the thing about an Indiana girl on an Indiana night, just when it gets to the chorus he had the presence of mind to give it a deeper meaning. My take on it is it can be whatever you want it to be. A lot of people think it's a drug reference, and if that's what you want to think, it very well could be, but it could also just be a goodbye love song." In the rest of the interview, Campbell said that the song was originally titled "Indiana Girl" and the first chorus "Hey, Indiana Girl, go out and find the world." He went on to say that their producer, Rick Rubin did not agree singing about "hey, Indiana Girl," so Rubin changed it a week later.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mike Campbell : Songwriter Interviews )〕
