Episode 14: Song Stories, "American Pie"

"American Pie" is one of the most well-known - and most cryptic -
songs in American popular music. Though Don McLean has confirmed
a few of the song's oft-rumored references, including 'the
jester' Bob Dylan and the disaster at Altamont, most of the
song's meanings are still up for debate. In this episode, I'm
giving you a full breakdown of every line of American Pie and
their possible meanings, with historical context that begins on
February 3, 1959 - The Day The Music Died.
