Solid Gold

Don McLean is definitely one of my favorite musicians of all time. While "American Pie" was his uber-commercial opus, this one seems to truly be a song he enjoys singing. The lyrics are amazing. You can just feel it, man.

My advice? Press play, and then place your hands on your cheeks. For the next four odd minutes, simply watch and listen, and try to figure out just what Van Gogh was trying to tell us. I can't describe why I enjoy this song so much- I can only hope you enjoy it too.

I agree. Very good collage of Van Gogh's art. I am also a Don Mclean fan. This video proves Youtube's worth.
