Is the Don McClean song Bye, Bye Ms. American pie about John F. Kenndey?

No, the song is about Buddy Holley.\n\nIf you listen to it, you will realize that it's about a fiery plane crash.\nThere were others in the plane who died as well: The Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens, and that's why he refers to a trio in several different verses.\n\nThey were together the most influential voices in music at that time, which is why he says repeatedly, "the day the music died".

American Pie" is an eight-and-a-half minute long classic rock song by singer-songwriter Don McLean, about "the day the music died."\n\nRecorded in 1971 and released that year on the album of the same name, the single was a number-one U.S. hit for four weeks in 1972. The song is an allusive history of rock and roll that starts with the deaths of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J. P. Richardson, Jr. (The Big Bopper) in a plane crash in 1959, and ends in 1970. .\n\nThe song's lyrics are subject of much debate. Although McLean dedicated the American Pie album to Buddy Holly, none of the singers in the plane crash are identified by name in the song itself. Music performers are also alluded to with easily decoded identifications, leading to much discussion, encouraged by McLean's canny lifelong refusal to explain the lyrics. Asked what "American Pie" meant, McLean once replied, "It means I never have to work again." Later, he more seriously stated, "You will find many 'interpretations' of my lyrics but none of them by me Sorry to leave you all on your own like this but long ago I realized that songwriters should make their statements and move on, maintaining a dignified silence.\n\nhope that is of some use.\nPHIL

John Mellencamp had some dobro. Mike Wanchic was his man. You can really here it on the 1987 album: The Lonesome Jubilee. It is also on the Human Wheels album. Probably The Big Daddy album to. I'm too lazy to look for that c.d.

the on e that Katherine McPhee sang on American Idol was 'Black Horse in a Cherry Tree.'  I don't know of any other songs that have those lyrics.

I may be wrong but I believe it was Rutherford B Hayes. He was born in Ohio, and I think he prefered them in a sweet potatoe pie. If I am wrong, forgive me.

Well, Katherine McPhee wasn't an American Idol (remember, Taylor Hicks won).  Out of Carrie and Kelly, I GREATLY prefer Kelly Clarkson- Kelly sings good music while Carrie sings country garbage.

There are so many differences between these four enormously important Americans mentioned in this question, that it cannot be answered in the confines of this forum.  However, there is one thing that ties all four of them together in American folklore.  Dallas, Texas.  Each of them had a profoundly life-shattering occurrence in this famed Texas City.  This is the one key element that binds these four truly unique Americans.  Allow me to explain. \n\n John F Kennedy, perhaps the most famous, and certainly the most influential US President, lost his life in this landmark Southeast City, on November 22, 1963.  \n\nFor Jodie Foster, she lost her virginity at the hands of the St. Ignatius High School Football team, at the tender age of 12.  It happened on October 9, 1974, under the bleachers and in the locker room of this famed Dallas institution. \n\nTechnically, Rory Emerald’s first sexual liaison occurred in rural Texas, but within the city limits of Dallas.  It happened September 13, 1966.  The young and supple bovine, Clarice, was owned by a wealthy Texas family.  Mr. Emerald fell in love with Clarice, so much so that he couldn’t keep his hands off of her.  It has often been speculated that his current beau, Jodie Foster, reminds him of Clarice, due to her looks and her name in the movie “Silence of the Lambs”.  I digress.  It seems that Rory Emerald’s love for Clarice was challenged by another young man, part of the wealthy Texas family that owned the young cow.  They often fought over Clarice’s affection, but in the end, the young man from the wealthy family was able to shower Clarice with many more gifts, and young Rory Emerald backed out of the love triangle.  George W Bush just had too much power and influence over the young domestic animal.
