The author states that the music didn't die as Don Mcleans claims in "American Pie" I posted the following on the MSN website
When Don McClean refers to "The Day The Music Died" he was refering to the fact that it was the first tragic death of three major Rock stars, in the infancy of Rock N' Roll. he didn't mean the world stood still and rock n roll disappeared. he plea for a moment of silence " the day the music died"
Preceeded in the song by :
But February Made me shiver (they died 02/03)
with every paper I deliver, sad news on the doorstep (you pick up your paper at your front door) I couldn't take one more step (stunned by The horror of the whole thing)
I can't remember if i cried (in shock)when I read about his widowed bride (maria elena Santos holly's new bride) but something touched me deep inside (a true fan was devastated) The Day The music died ( brings us full circle, the first tragedy in the early rock and roll era ,thus the metaphor, "the day the music died", nothing more than a metaphor)
By the late 70's when we had lost so many rock stars it was replced by a new term "Rock and Roll Heaven".
