Last year the “Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)” singer’s record for longest single to top the Billboard charts was broken by Taylor Swift with the 10-minute version of “All Too Well”. McLean held the record for 49 years with “American Pie”, according to a press release.
The single was also inducted into the Grammy’s Hall of Fame, added to the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress and is one of the top five Recording Industry Association of America songs of the 20th century.
