Navernyaka na Internete mojno naiti slova (shas Kostya momentalno vidast link! ;).. no mojet kto to i tak znaet..

Menya tozhe muchal etot vopros uzhe davno. Interesno bi uznat'.

Alla, I'll try to answer your question. This song is a requiem "American pie" was written originally by Don Mclean. Although it is written as a tribute to famous american singer Buddy Holly who died tragically, "American Pie" is also a wild ride through McLean's rock'n roll hall of fame and recollection. It's an anthem to the 50's rock scene and how it affected his life finale. It's is very intellectual, insightful and really, really well written.

Guys, If you really liked "American Pie" try Bob Dylan's music. This is the real classics of Amirican history of rock-n-roll. You will appreciate it. Koroviev

Edik, v tom linke shto ya dala.. eto kak MTV Pop-up videos.. znaesh.. posle kajdogo slova, kajdoi strochki, idut komentarii.. ob'yasneniya, background info.. eto koneshno vse ochen' interpretive i kajdiy vidit etu pesnu po raznomu.. kogda chitaesh Shaikspira, Balzaka, Tolstogo, delaesh kakie to svoi vivodi about whot you think they were trying to convey.. no one actually knows for sure what they meant, and they're dead. (RIP) Don McClean is alive, of course (isn't he..?) but I still think people read into this song kajdiy po svoemu..

Bezuslovno.. v poezii, voobche v luboi literature, v kino, i t.d. kajdiy vidit i pocherpivaet shto to svoe.. Po etomu menya diko razdrajaet kogda v klassax po literature (kotorix ya brala do figa i bolshe) tebya govoryat kak nujno ponimat' napisannoe.. what exact meaning are we supposed to gather from the piece, what the long-dead author meant.. etc. Ya obichno chitau i ponimau vse very differently than most people.. (mojet v detstve uronili.. ne znau..).. i kogda mne govoryat shto avtor imel v vidu to-to, to mne vsegda hochetsa skazat'.. how the hell do you ..
