<P> "Don't Come Around Here No More" is a song written by Tom Petty of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and David A. Stewart of Eurythmics . It was released in February 1985 as the lead single from the band's Southern Accents album . </P> <P> The original inspiration was a romantic encounter that producer David A. Stewart of Eurythmics had with Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac . On The Howard Stern Show, Stewart explained that the title's phrase was actually uttered by Nicks . She had broken up with Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh the night before, and invited Stewart to her place for a party after an early Eurythmics show in Los Angeles . Stewart did not know who she was at the time, but went anyway . When the partygoers all disappeared to a bathroom for a couple of hours to snort cocaine, he decided to go upstairs to bed . He woke up at 5am to find Nicks in his room trying on Victorian clothing and described the entire scenario as very much reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland . Later that morning, she told Walsh, "Don't come around here no more ." </P> <P> The music video is themed around Alice in Wonderland and was directed by Jeff Stein . Dave Stewart appears as the caterpillar at the beginning, sitting on a mushroom with a hookah water pipe while playing a sitar . Petty appears in the video dressed as The Mad Hatter, and actress Louise "Wish" Foley played Alice . At the end of the video, Alice, who has been turned into a cake, is eaten by Petty and even friends of her own, and then a final shot of her being swallowed whole by Petty, after which he gives a small burp and pats his mouth dry . </P> <Ul> <Li> Tom Petty--lead vocals, piano </Li> <Li> Mike Campbell--guitar, bass synthesizer </Li> <Li> Benmont Tench--string synthesizer </Li> <Li> Stan Lynch--drums, percussion </Li> <Li> Howie Epstein--bass guitar, vocals </Li> </Ul>
