The day the music died

Being a Canadian, through and through, I'm definitely not promoting America or trying to push music onto anyone, but ever wonder what the words meant in American Pie by Don McLean?
I'm sure everyone at some point in their life have sung or boisterously joined others in singing this famous tribute. What most probably don't realize, though, is how many events, movements, and history inspired this song. It's really quite fascinating.

Another awesome follow up to the video, of Tommy Allsup explaining in detail, the tragic night.
