Tom Bremer<p>I recently came across Don McLean’s nearly forgotten 1972 self-titled album in my collection. Popularity is not always the best measure of quality or artistry, and this record is still one of my favorites. Its songs explore alienation, separateness, and the agony of memory, the deeply painful dimension of <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/nostalgia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nostalgia</span></a>.

50+ Music<p>"Vincent" is a song by <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DonMcLean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DonMcLean</span></a>, written as a tribute to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/VincentVanGogh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VincentVanGogh</span></a>. It is often erroneously titled after its opening refrain, "<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/StarryStarryNight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StarryStarryNight</span></a>", a reference to Van Gogh's 1889 painting <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/TheStarryNight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheStarryNight</span></a>. McLean wrote the lyrics in 1970 after reading a book about the life of Van Gogh. It was released on McLean's 1971 <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/AmericanPie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanPie</span></a> album; the following year, the song topped the <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/UKSinglesChart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UKSinglesChart</span></a> for two weeks, and peaked at No. 12 in the United States. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qd0APVnDIbE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">youtube.com/watch?v=Qd0APVnDIbE</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
Minoru Saba<p>For some reason Don McLean singing "American Pie" has been rattling around in my head the last few weeks, not only for the words "But February made me shiver" though it's been cold enough in <a href="https://toad.social/tags/Tokyo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tokyo</span></a>.<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRpiBpDy7MQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=PRpiBpDy7M</span><span class="invisible">Q</span></a><br><a href="https://toad.social/tags/DonMcLean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DonMcLean</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/AmericanPie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmericanPie</span></a></p>

50+ Music<p>"Castles in the Air" is a song by American singer-songwriter <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DonMcLean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DonMcLean</span></a>, which he originally released as a single in 1971 and subsequently re-recorded and re-released a decade later. The song describes a man who is unsatisfied with and weary of an urban lifestyle. Although native to the city, he decides to forsake not only his urban 'castle in the air' but also his love interest there. Because of his desire for and love of a country life. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXsMrohi_KQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">youtube.com/watch?v=wXsMrohi_KQ</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
