American Pie


"A long, long time ago
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died
"

62 years ago, the music died.  Richie Valens, Buddy Holly, and the Big Bopper all cut down in their prime.  And in remembrance, this seemed most appropriate.
