On February 3, 1959, American rock and roll musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and "The Big Bopper" J. P. Richardson were killed in a plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa, together with pilot Roger Peterson. The event later became known as "The Day the Music Died" after singer-songwriter Don McLean referred to it as such in his 1971 song "American Pie". There are a lot of other references to subjects such as the Beatles and Janis Joplin but I'll leave that to others to inform you of.

The king is Elvis, the Jester Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin is the girl that sang the blues, Lennon is John Lennon, There is a depth of musical history in the song. Buddy Holly's death and those that died with him stunned the public.

He was asked once about what the song meant. He said “it means I don’t ever have to work again”! Btw his song Vincent about Vincent Van Gogh is amazingly beautiful.

This is a song about what happened after Buddy died. The Jester is Bob Dylan, The King is The King, Elvis. The Byrd's were a group in the 60s that actually made a song entitled "8 Miles High". John Lennon from the Beatles actually became a Marxist (Communist) after reading a book of Marx. The Beatles wrote a song "Helter Skelter" and Charles Manson took the meaning of the song and sent his disciples on a killing spree. Jack Flash sat on a candle stick, The Rolling Stones "Jumping Jack Flash", The Stones also helped bring Satan to the forefront of Rock&Roll. The girl who sang the blues was Janis Joplin.

A whole American rock music history lesson from the 50s to the 70s in one song.

This song was read into the Library Of Congress. Every line is a historical reflection.

It is about when Buddy Holly & the Big Bopper died in a plane crash, The Day The Music Died. Also has a bunch of other correlations and references. Don was a true poet

This whole song is one big history lesson. Iconic.

"This 'll be the day that I die" is a reference to Buddy Holly's hit "That'll Be The Day (That I Die)"

This is MORE than just A Music Lesson. For Example, "Helter Skelter in a Summer Swelter" deals with The Manson Murders in 1969, "Eight Miles High and Falling Fast" refers to how Drug Culture helped to kill '60s Youth Culture. It's a poetic focus on many aspects of American Culture from the complacent and apparently innocent '50s to the rebllious and utopian '60s and then to the disillusionment and corruption of the '70s.

Can you imagine sitting down and writing that LONG poem then setting it to music? Don is SO talented.

So many historical references to events of the sixties and early seventies that stunned us all and were often reflected in the music of the time. The song begins with the deaths of Richie Valens, Buddy Holly, and the Big Bopper in a plane crash and that symbolizes the end of a certain carefree era of rock music. After it, came so many songs with deep political meanings and messages. The reference to the good old boys drinking reflects the feeling many had that in the draft was Vietnam and likely their death, so drink for today because tomorrow you die. The events of the Chicago Democratic convention and the trial of the Yippie leaders that turned into a circus. The deaths of Janis and Jim and Jimmy are here too, as well as references to so much more. The American pie reference is, I think, a reference to the American dream that seemed reachable for so many, but as events unfolded, those dreams and ideals faded away. Those who lived through these times will always have a special connection to this song!!!!

My highschool physics teacher used to sing this to us in class playing guitar on Fridays after a quiz. The entire class would sing along. I love this song so much.

@jimwagner9522 2 года назад

It is a very personal song for Don McLean regarding events that touched his life as well as that of an entire generation of Americans.

@ChrisB-xm3mg 2 года назад

"The Day The Music Died" refers to the plane crash that killed Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and The Big Bopper. This song is full of cryptic references, which McLean has, for the most part, never fully explained. The charcaters in the song represent popular figures in entertainment, some of whom are more obvious than others. For example, the Girl Who Sang The Blues is generally accepted to be Janis Joplin.

@sailinbob11 2 года назад

It covers everything from the Kennedy assassination to the Vietnam War and a bunch of other front page stories of the 60s. There is a narrative copy of this song which explains the meaning of every line. Worth a listen. This is definitely top 100 list of songs all time.

@frankiebowie6174 2 года назад

This is one of the rare songs that is almost impossible to explain to people of your generation. We boomers got the references immediately, and what we didn’t get at first, we got after a hundred tries because it was on every station for weeks and weeks 😆

@thefullnomad6543 2 года назад

One of the best songs from a depth and meaning POV ever written, probably. You could spend a week's worth of English classes just talking about all the stuff in there, and ANOTHER week talking about all the correlated history tales that are relevant to this story. It's amazingly deep.

Just imagine your favorite musicians, the ones you listen to every day because their music gives you life, and they all get killed in a tragic accident at the same time. Life goes on for everyone but, for you, that's the day the music died. This song always brings a tear to my eyes because it makes me realize how empty my life would feel if ALL music just disappeared!

The song in part is about Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper who were killed in a plane crash on February 3 1959 and is often referred to as the Day The Music Died.
