First of all, I just found out my dad sometimes reads this blog. Sorry Daddy, about the whole "on my ass" thing...hehe...didn't mean it!
Anyway, I absolutely adore this album; it definitely is in the running for my favorite albums of all time. Everyone is familiar with the song "American Pie" even Stewie:
There is a reason that this song is so well known, of course. It is an amazing tribute to the great musicians of the past; I almost feel like it should be this blog's theme song. Actually, this whole album is a tribute. You can guess who the song "Vincent" was meant for. There is a great line in that song that goes something like "the world was never meant for someone as beautiful as you."
This is a truly amazing album and you owe it to yourself to listen to it. I wish Don McLean would write a song for me. And Elton John.
RATING: 5/5
