In 1972 I was not into this type of music, and then I heard it EVERYWHERE, but yeah, I hafta admit this tune is deep. Don Mclean, frikkin' poet...

‘one of the first great pop records about great pop records’ (think that was Dave Hepworth ..) 

Also one of the longest songs to reach number 1, until Oasis came along
