American Pie absolutely bored the hell out of me.
Iggy Pop and the Stooges was my taste at the time...
JMO..
I remember American Pie for this reason......
Shortly after buying the 45 of this song, which had the first half on one side and the second half on the other, I got braces on my teeth. The orthodontist instructed me that I had to brush for 5 minutes every time.
The “B” side, second half of this song, was 4:31 long. I would put it on the record player and brush my teeth to it.
I saw Iggy in concert many times. He was a homeboy.
