Starry Starry Night

My all time favorite song is "Starry Starry Night" written in honor of Vincent Van Gogh.  Any time I hear the opening notes of this melody, it stops me in my tracks and, whatever I'm doing at the moment, take time to listen.  Doesn't matter who the singer or musicians are, I stop and listen.  Of course, no one can sing it like Don McLean ... the original!


Hope you can take time to listen to the words which are so touching especially when you know the history of this artist.

Loved this and never realized it was about Van Gogh! Thanks for the education.

Starry Starry Night (both painting and song) are family favorites! I always enjoy listening to this song. Also love the Chloe Agnew version as well as Josh Groban.
