Madonna turned 50 last year. Is that old or what?![]()
Miss Kitty, "the day the music died" refers to the the death of the great Buddy Holly, one of the pioneers of rock n' roll. He died 50 years ago on this date. He was only 22 years old.![]()
That's a first for me.![]()
I was so hoping Lynnie didn't actually think it was chimpanzees.![]()

I have never seen this video and did not even know she did this. I have to agree with you SWGB.....![]()
Song history
Released in the spring of 2000, American Pie was a big worldwide hit, reaching #1 in many countries, including the UK, Canada, Australia, Italy and Finland. Ironically there was no commercial single release in the US, but the single still reached the #29 spot on The Billboard Hot 100, based on airplay alone. The song was added as a bonus track on Madonna's Music album (outside the US). This single was Madonna's first single of the 2000's.

Madonna in the music video for "American Pie"
The music video, directed by Philip Stolzl, pays tribute to the seventies in which the original song by Don McLean was recorded. It show several snaps of ordinary people; playing children, happy couples, a lonely woman in a store, etc. in splitscreens intercut with shots of Madonna dancing in front of a large American flag. Rupert Everett also features in the video and provided backing vocals in the song.
I loved this song growing up. Then the music did die when a certain recording artist killed this song for me.

I loved that song ............................. and the Madonna version was just plain WRONG and sort of ruined it for me for years!!!!
BTW I have been mentally singing the chorus for hours now!![]()
I remember when Madonna covered American Pie, but it seems it wasn't that huge here. I was glad to hear the song again on the radio and it definitely brought back memories, even if it was performed by Madonna. No, it wasn't my favorite performance by Madonna.
