American Pie

I know Im going against the current on this one, but i think the world view is christian. I think this because he references the devil and the father the son and the holy ghost. I think that an artist can express a different worldview in his works than that of his own opinion. 

  1. God and the universe- the power that is in control of this universe is music                                     - i dont think that the music i governed by anything
  2. Humanity and identity- the nature of the human being is to follow what feels good                          - the people, i would say, are more spiritual                                                                                      - I think the only control the people have in the universe is control of there own        actions                                                                                                                                                               - i think the people are guilty because they live by the feelings music gives them
  3. Conflict and suffering- the universe is flawed because the people in it are driven by their own feelings of what they think is good                                                                                                           - these flaws are, their spiritual mindset, and their lack of discipline to do anything with there lives except mope around and wish they had some music
  4. Hope and redemption- The answer to their struggle is music                                                                       - the people arent doing so good                                                                                                       - they find hope in that music will come back and make them feel good again
  5. Values and relationships- one finds value in life through whiskey and music                                            - we prize music and fear the silence                                     
  6. Truth and knowledge- music is real and truth is your feelings                                                                    - there is no absolute truth                                                                                                               - are words are not reliable either
