Miss American Pie

Last Friday marked the seventy first birthday of Buddy Holly. As most of you know he died in a tragic plane crash forty eight years ago on The Day The Music Died.

Bye-bye, Miss American Pie

Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singing this'll be the day that I die




There are interpretations in the video, but here's some more ideas. http://www.fiftiesweb.com/amerpie-1.htm#top

I was reading the other day that Elijah Wood has sometimes been mistaken for Tobey Maguire and Daniel Radcliffe. I can see a vague resemblance, if you caught a glimpse from a distance.



If you want to talk about resemblance, I vote for tennis player Anna Kournikova and actress Hayden Panettiere.
