Seems like there was no thread for it.
The manuscript with the lyrics of the #1 song "American Pie" by Don McLean (covered by Madonna) has been sold for $1.2 million!
The song is about America in the 50's and 60's, and influenced by the plane crash that occurred in 1959 and that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P "The Big Popper" Richardson, dubbed "the day the music died" by the Don McLean song.
