This is purely speculating on my part. Most of those who have dug into the occult influence in the entertainment field know that those who are initiated into the secret cabals put out works that have both an exoteric (what they want the surface cover story to tell) and an esoteric (what the actual spiritual side or story is being told). There are those who are initiated in by choice and others who just allow themselves to be used and still others who are just artists and entertainers and nothing more. But, when there are signs of another message being sent out other than the obvious it peaks my interest. So I will sometimes look for the back ground or second level story of music or films when things hit me in the gut as “Hmmmm feels like there is more to this than meets the eye”. It’s not important to know or deep dive into because the ONLY thing we should mainly focus on is God’s word and we should not dwell on or focus too much on what the enemy casts out but, sometimes it is helpful to be aware of it. That said, this is a take it or leave post and nothing to put too much stock in at all. At best it is an “I’ve heard something like this before. It’s interesting but…” kind of post.
So, around Superbowl time, most especially if it falls in February, I often think of Don McLean’s song “American Pie”. Inspiration most times comes from a spiritual force but just what spirit that is depends upon the vessel being used. One way you can tell when it is spiritual is that the artist often states that lyrics or writings just come from “out of no where” into their heads or pens or fingers and its “channeled” through them. I have always thought there was more to this tune than just Buddy Holly etc. There is another level to this song and lyrics which, to me, hint to the future of America. Perhaps a planned timed surprise football (nuclear strike) landing foul on American grass? The lyrics hint to rapture and perhaps a nuclear strike (football landing foul) that helps end America as we know it and would leave what was left to be absorbed into the one world Satanic Beast government.
“And in the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died”
Don McLean- American Pie (with Lyrics)
Who can truly know until time passes by with or without the revelation. He always keeps the meaning of his American Pie lyrics ambiguous but he does acknowledge the Buddy Holly and things of the times as having influence. That said, I found his quote intriguing about how he came up with some of the lyrics. The chorus mainly….
So bye, bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’ this will be the day that I die,
This will be the day that I die.”
As entertainment goes, I actually like the song and in fact my favorite tune of McLean’s is “Vincent”. But, as I stated above, there are often times other meanings of a song or art piece was “inspired” or “channeled” from outside and the artist may not even understand or have a clue that it could be a dark spirit. As I was looking further into this it dawned on me that I never checked out the full album and boy what did my wondering eyes see? More hints with most all of the tunes on that album from 1971. They lyrics of some of the songs are just as haunting as the hit title song. Bare in mind not every one must have another meaning. Just the titles alone get the point across.
Songs on the album:
1. “American Pie”
2. “Till Tomorrow”
3. “Vincent”
4. “Crossroads” {Crossroads (folklore)}
5. “Winterwood” {Dark winter?}
6. “Empty Chairs” {What happened to them? Rapture or death?}
7. “Everybody Loves Me, Baby”
8. “Sister Fatima” {Three Secrets of Fátima Prophecies}
9. “The Grave”
10.”Babylon”
2003 Capitol Records Reissue Bonus Tracks
11. “Mother Nature”
12. “Aftermath”
As most who study end times Bible prophecy know, America is often hinted at as being Mystery Babylon. Let’s just check out some of these lyrics.
Aftermath lyrics (after the nukes hit?):
Windows in a silent room , sunlight burns the walls to black
Angles and dimensions melt while colors drip and pillows crack
Reflections of my memories like pictures pasted on a sheet
The ribbon film of separate frames lying curled up at my feet
The film is just a snake design and the photographs are fading fast
These are not memories of mine I have no future, no past
I’ve seen a thousand afternoons dissolve into the night
Like sugar crystals on a spoon they disappear from sight
Gray days from the crispest morning to the warmest afternoon in this room
And I like to draw the face I saw so long ago
My image in the mirror tells the jagged lines which way to go
The black and white description of the sole survivor of the Holocaust
All the rest were lost
Do you see this paper face? It has no color or no mood
My eyes are ageless, as am I. I need no sleep, I need no food
I am a king, but like a child the other children laugh at me
Tongues of fire, wagging wild they dance around me merrily
I’ll kill them all and if I fail I’ll kill whoever I can find
Then they’ll beg me to be kind
My eyes have seen far more than eyes can ever tell
This planet plunged through mushroom fires of earthly hell
I know that my sweet Jesus said that he’d return
But Babylon has fallen and the cities burn
Babylon lyrics (America / Israel in these lyrics?):
By the waters
The waters
Of Babylon
We lay down and wept
And wept
For thee Zion
We remember
Thee remember
Thee remember
Thee Zion
Everybody Loves Me, Baby lyrics (I see Antichrist in these lyrics):
One! Two! Three! Four!
Fortune has me well in hand
Armies wait at my command
My gold lies in a foreign land, buried deep beneath the sand
The angels guide my every tread
My enemies are sick or dead
But all the victories I’ve led, haven’t brought you to my bed
You see, everybody loves me, baby
What’s the matter with you?
Won’tcha tell me what did I do to offend you?
Now the purest race I’ve bred for thee, to live in my democracy
And the highest human pedigree awaits the first-born boy baby
And my face on every coin engraved
The anarchists are all enslaved
My own flag is forever waved by grateful people I have saved
You see, everybody loves me, baby
What’s the matter with you?
Won’tcha tell me what did I do to offend you?
Now no land is beyond my claim when the land is seized in the people’s name
By evil men who rob and maim
If war is hell, I’m not to blame!
Why, you can’t blame me, I’m Heaven’s child
I’m the second son of Mary mild
And I’m twice removed from Oscar Wilde
But he didn’t mind, why, he just smiled
Yes, and the ocean parts when I walk through and the clouds dissolve and the sky turns blue
I’m held in very great value by everyone I meet but you
‘Cause I’ve used my talents as I could
I’ve done some bad, I’ve done some good
I did a whole lot better than they thought I would, so, c’mon, and treat me like you should!
Because everybody loves me, baby
What’s the matter with you?
Won’tcha tell me what did I do to offend you?
Everybody loves me, baby
What’s the matter with you?
Won’tcha tell me what did I do to offend you?
Woo! Yeah!
Everybody loves me, baby, what’s the matter with you?
Tell me what did I do to offend you!
QUOTES BY DON McLEAN:
“There’s always a fundamental misery that’s with me that I always relate to some bit of loss or something. I don’t know what it is about me, but even though I’m happy on the surface, there’s something there, I guess. So, it all comes from wherever it comes from. I really don’t know where that is.”
“I have no idea how I do anything. I never have. You know I just started playing guitar and started singing and started working on this act that I would call “Don McLean” when I was probably in high school. And I have been doing this for 40 years, adding songs and writing things, cobbling together albums, doing live things, you know, albums and tours. And then I have records on the charts. I have no idea how this happened.”
“I have a weird sense sometimes of what’s going to happen before it happens, and I kind of live by that, which is how my instincts operate, I suppose.”
“When people ask what ‘American Pie’ is about, they’re missing the point. The song isn’t about the lines themselves – it’s about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn’t there.”
Interesting if nothing else. What is really important? Jesus, God’s word and what God says will and will not happen and when. What should be done with this information? Back burner it or file 13 it. The most important thing to be done with any information or just your life in general is to acknowledge, believe and ask for and accept Jesus’ FREE gift of salvation TODAY! No matter what may or may not come, the ONLY thing that ever matters is who you are in Jesus! And if you are saved then, it matters not what becomes of America or this world because, your true home is with Jesus for all eternity and he will bring you back with him when he establishes his kingdom AFTER he metes out judgment on Satan, the fallen angels and, demonic spirits as well as mankind who sided with them. So call on Jesus today because judgement is about to fall so very soon! Choose the right side and you will not be appointed to that wrath that is to come!
