Don McLean is one of the great examples of a single song changing a life.
Back in 1972, American Pie launched him into stardom - and became a defining song of the 20th century.
That launched a multi decade career which included hits like Vincent, Castles in the Air and I Love You So.
And of course, we have the recent collaboration with Tyson Fury.
Now - he's coming our way for a tour in May next year.
Don McLean joined the Mike Hosking Breakfast.
