    I have not, nor will I ever, hear what she did to it. To me, there is only one American Pie, and that is the original by Don McLean.

    I don't think she ruined the song for me. Don McLean still has the definitive version of the song, if only because he also wrote it. And I just chose not to listen to Madonna's version, because I don't think Madonna should have touched or tried to sing the song to begin with (let alone make the changes she made in it, but then again who am I to advice Madonna -- although as a member of an audience she is trying to reach to sell her version, on this one she lost me).

    There's just no comparrison between the two. Don McLean will always be linked with that song and for all the right reasons.

    Sorry, but for me the song was Pre-Ruined as soon as Don wrote it. I know I shouldn't say such things, but it just tries to hard to be Meaningful without really having enough punch to get there.

    Alas, different strokes for different folks.

    Madonna does not have the power to ruin anything for me. I think her take on it was okay. She's not that big a deal to me. I like Lady Ga Ga more.

    Nah! I still very much enjoy the original version. Her version was awful but I'm certainly grateful that IF it was going to be remade that it was done by Madonna vs. Britney Spears or something. The video didn't totally suck though.

    Madonna can take a good or bad song and turn it into complete trash.
