Vincent	It is quite a nice song that I tried 3 months to learn it. My guitar with capo on the 1st fret sounds good. hah My email address:sunie2001@hotmail.com I am a Chinese, willing to make friends oversea who likes Mclean	9357
American Pie	I'm 18 and this my first attempt at a real recording. This is my rendition of American Pie. It's a rather over the top rendition and I go as high as Michael Jakson at some points. This is a very unique rendition and I hope everyone enjoys it!	13052
If We Try	I play it for thirty years already and it's so beautiful and so hard to get it really good. But if I try - and keep trying... Hope you like it.	5042

Castles in the Air	I'm probably the only non-guitarist in here so it was a real challenge to come up with a decent version of this song. I used Cubase SX3 and Virtual Guitarist to record this most beautiful song. I hope you all like my interpretation. Thanks.	5966
Bronco Bill's Lament	I always used to like this song.	4524
Vincent	I really love the song, that's y I recorded it. Hope u'll like it, too.	10669
Georgie's Song	This is obviously not a Don McLean song, it's mine! Uploaded with permission and some pressure! Written for my daughter, Georgina, every father should be able to identify with this.......I hope.	7568
And I Love You So	Don makes it sound easy, but I found this song really hard to sing! Where's everyone gone? Have you all jumped ship and not told me? Is it me?? Hello??	11410
Vincent	Hi Dejay, Cookie and Jim, mind if I join you?	22047
Empty Chairs by Dejay	Empty Chairs by Dejay	8741
Orphans Of Wealth by Cookie	Orphans Of Wealth by Cookie	6272
Birthday Song - test by Jim Monaghan	I''m trying to see how/if this works. Not all the chords are correct...I''ll upload a better version later. Eventually, we''ll be able to do "Don McLean guitar lessons" on here. OK...the good news...I figured out how to do this. The bad news...I need better recording equipment @ home to pull this off right!	8913

Don McLean 'Till Tomorrow' video, 1971	Here is a little snippet from the rare 'Till Tomorrow' video. It shows the infamous bomb scare that Martin Maguire describes on his Belfast page: "During the song one of the theatre staff walks onstage, says something to Don and then takes the mike to ask the audience to check around them and under their seats for suspicious packages (ie a bomb scare). The audience seem bemused by it all, whilst the guy on stage insists that it is serious and not a joke. Minutes later, Don returns, continues the song from where he left off and receives rapturous applause."	6469
