"Because of an off-hand funny comment I made backstage at a concert years ago, a story circulated that the song has been a burden and even that I didnÂ’t sing it for a while. ThatÂ’s completely false. I am very proud of Â‘American PieÂ’ and the many satellites that grow from it and revolve around it. For many years I carried my songs around and now they carry me around. I have always sung Â‘American PieÂ’ for my audience and would never think of disappointing them since it is they who have given me a wonderful life and untold affection for almost 30 years."
