Notes

Don McLean's iconic story of the plane crash which Buddy Holly and 2 other rockers died. I never get tired of hearing the different layers of how we'd all react when we found out about a tragedy. The day the music died. Try memorizing the lyrics.

There are some fascinating interpretations of the lyrics if you follow the Songfacts link below. McLean clearly left a lot to interpretation with his references to the "jester" and "Lennon read a book on Marx".
