[@ninja-981]

Omfg lmao! XD Heard this song twice in one day at Safeway.

[@JorgePerez-op9jc]

Fuck yeah dude lol

[@OmegaShadow64]

Such truths have never been spoken.

[@wheresatari6242]

You have no idea. I've worked at Kroger for 7 years😒 But yet here we are😂

[@ryankohler481]

ThatOneGuy006 LMFAO I heard this song where I worked and came here Bc of it

[@ninja-981]

"You are now listening to the In-Store Audio Network. We have millions of songs but only play 10 on loop for the entirety of your shift."

[@jeremimi]

Ninja981 lmao!

[@superdave354]

Ninja981 i think it's millions of people listen to audio network every day

[@Mohamedahmed331]

This song makes you feel happy & sad at the same time. It's hard to explain but yea

[@ericmiller4784]

"Nostalgia" is the word you're looking for.

[@HippoBladegaming.]

Yep😊

[@anonymousapproximation8549]

@@ericmiller4784 Edit: I got over it.

[@flintj9616]

Mohamed big Fax my guy

[@superdave354]

Mohamed same way I feel, I couldn't explain it either. For us who don't listen to this kind of music, can't stand his voice but still love listening to it, sort of in-between

[@nikkileanne5206]

When you work at Kroger, this song is on multiple times a shift

[@RogerTheil]

It's such torture...

[@vinceland8743]

Home Depot also lol

[@Nyakubs]

dude the fuckin "figure it out" song drives me up the fuckin wall

[@r8derman]

OMG yes... some lame ass shit

[@MyClarkBar]

@@Nyakubs I hear ya man! It drove me nuts until I heard it one day and finally found out that the name of this song was Slice!!

[@sonicrider321]

Why is it this one specific song that plays across the multiple Grocery stores in the world?

[@ervinkahorere849]

Time fascinates me. This song makes me wish there was a machine that teleport people to the best eras of their lives and just stay there for as long as they wish. I feel we all don't have to be in 2019.

[@liamsammon6123]

Lol 2019 was the best era for me! I wonder how many people miss 2019 now tho.. and the earlier years

[@jreese7436]

You ever find that machine let me know.

[@OfficialAshArcher]

Five For Fighting is criminally underrated. One of the best musicians in the 21st century - melodic masterpieces full of meaning

[@artliberty]

i agree

[@goldievegascheerleader4794]

You are so, so, so right!

[@lamsokawski6964]

Yes

[@ripomarlittleitsallinthega3143]

never heard of five for fighting and this song make’s absolutely zero sense it’s just a bunch of words combined in a confusing way with no meaning, “we were more than just a slice of american pie” that’s so stupid 😂 and cringe i only looked up that lyric on google cuz i hear it playing at the grocery store and the lyric is so stupid i just had to see who sang it

[@johndannenbrink7590]

One hundo the same here. Five for Fighting needed to be at their release party handing out free customized FfF barf bags for this winner of the ages

[@flowerfaerie8931]

There’s something about how tender and gentle this song sounds that just makes me want to cry. It’s pretty incredible.

[@kristen_vogel]

Omg this song plays in Publix Every. Single. Day.

[@JingleDeezNutz]

Good.

[@mashee5630]

I worked at home depot and lowes and this song was on repeat at least 10 times per shift but thats how i found it 😂

[@ldmax]

So funny. I had forgotten about this song. I recently started working at Home Depot and heard it for the first time in ages. Now I hear several times a day.

[@Soariewhispeds]

My dad played this song all the time when I was younger (I’m 13) and I always start thinking about him when I listen to this. Makes me want to cry. My dad is alive and doing ok, but I don’t see him as much as I used to and I miss him a lot.

[@sullgames]

+Japhet Bisheko This is not racist at all. The slices represent periods of time within America, not separate countries. When he says "How can you be as nice as me, you're not from the same slice as me", he is REALIZING that people from all times can be as awesome as him, and his "slice" is no longer seen as special. Thus, he wants a song about a time when he and his peers were "more than just a slice of American pie"

[@joeorc]

That's what this was about ; what the core foundations of what this nation was really about. North America Central America South America We are all Americans!

[@Frank-jr1ly]

I heard this at 99cents, thought it was random but it seems everyone here is from hearing it at a grocery store lol

[@ssaulnier2]

This song is played at least 4 times when I am working, its been stuck in my head forever and I finally found it

[@jellydino6574]

Same night shift

[@Finlan2005]

This song drives me to the point of insanity whenever I have a shift at Nofrills

[@FluorescentStars]

I hear this song at least twice every shift. I swear they havent changed the playlist in two years. The only break I get from it is around christmas.

[@somewhere367]

I work in a meijer and this song plays every 3 hours. And now I hate it.

[@newtrablama4552]

Jake McConaha Michigan?

[@connorquinlan1082]

Now THIS is a slice

[@LesleyADragon]

"Can you imagine that slice of time, rock 'n roll was young, people stood in line..." Gives me chills every time.

[@whitneydevlin4136]

I lived that time... it was magical!

[@kellyntaylor2230]

You did really well on this video! The scenery is beautiful and compliments this great 5FF song. Love it!

[@Dreamweaver7717]

Kroger

[@Kaane15]

The instore audio network

[@dixieflyer2012]

:)

[@SillySmiley94]

Oh my God, working at Kroger is the only reason I know this song

[@kevanchong4082]

You know, John Ondrasik is what I want a singer to be like, I don't know how to say it but I guess we likeminded people here appreciate how different he is from others in the musical sphere

[@KyleColts18]

" Hey man sing me a song" my favorite part of the song. But still overall a amazing song.

[@supergamerxda.k.azabuza4031]

This song makes me feel Nostalgic.

[@Musicman369]

A slice of Rock & Roll and a slice of America Pie.🇺🇸 Great songs like this helps me slip off to a great time in America 🇺🇸

[@jwmellott]

When I play this, I am unable to avoid repeating it less than 4 times.

[@elison9480]

My kind of music during this times. 🇺🇸

[@MsJoniLynn]

This is one of the best songs in so many years I can't even imagine. This is my childhood in words and music, beautiful!!!!!!!

[@noahcove2241]

this song is awesome. The lyrics are promotional poetry

[@NewEnglandPatriotsfan]

I would all the time hear this in my grocery store employer lol. Sometimes twice if I was there long enough, "clerk to seafood immediately" lol

[@AnthonyDavis217]

This song's great. Driving around on a sunny day with the window's down and playing this is just perfect.

[@freesk8]

Song about a song. Don Maclean is awesome! I've seen him live.

[@cutebabyseal621]

This song just left me sobbing. "How can you be as nice as me You're not from the same slice as me Where do we go from here my friend Is this the way our story ends" These words were practically prophetic.

[@adstalga]

So true today. Our country is bursting apart.

[@johnnyboyninety4]

They played this shyt at the grocery store I work in, I been there for a year lol

[@epicviewerJJ]

Who likes working at Kroger?! This is my favorite song on their (extremely small) playlist

[@nikkileanne5206]

Literally why I'm here 😂 every freakin night at work

[@Bioblitz1997]

Me sometimes they do superman it's not easy

[@dixieflyer2012]

Omg that’s why i’m here too!!!!! Lol this is my favorite song they play

[@2000foxygirl]

JJ제이제이 omg they play it at my job all of the time

I heard it in a McDonalds.

[@urinia6594]

My God i have to completely agree with the hundred people saying this is like the most under rated band this song hasn't even hit 1 million yet! (and how does 100 years only have 26 million views?!)

[@sjey6396]

This was the first song I ever heard from this band. I remember hearing it on the radio and wanting to find it so I could listen to it over and over again. I love this song

[@jackflorence6562]

Never knew he had this sort of homage for Don McLean, I like it.

[@MsJoniLynn]

This beautiful song is about my growing up. If you weren't part of this time, maybe it doesn't mean so much. This is truly the way people were, real is the word. We lived, by living! It feels like no one who isn't from this time can quite grasp it, or the feeling we have about it. Thank-you John, this means so much to me.

[@obi-wankenobi1750]

Nostalgia clouds reality.

[@1994lightangel]

I LOVE THIS! i have listened to it over and over again last 20 hours. i kinda wish i was american now. hugs from a new norwegian FFFfan!

[@tonyairwin5957]

a great song that speaks about a simpler time for youths, todays kids just don't get how fun those times were before the internet, before there was a gadget glued to your hands. It was Fun then...

[@noahcove2241]

true that.. imagine what teens will be like in ten years.😵

[@tonyairwin5957]

couldn't imagine, probaly have gadgets built in to their body's kinda like a tatoo or a pirecing.

[@noahcove2241]

+Tonya Irwin Yeah. well.... this song is the reason why my gadget is glued to my hand right now.

[@ryanpace8342]

@ Not true, there are people like me out there, where if that were to happen it would start killing them immediately

[@gravitytwo4088]

Good question: "Where do we go from here my friends, is this the way our story ends?" This song was ahead of it's time.

[@lone5463]

Starting 2021 listening to this beautiful song. How can you be as nice as me, you're not from the same slice as me

[@Anthony-rs3hn]

I relate to this song on a personal level

[@datingtutorials]

I like this song!!!!!! :)xx and no I'm not oblivious to the previous comments, I just chose to ignore them and recognize the beauty of this song, which I came here for. :)xx

[@mjmathisen]

Thank you Don McLean for inspiring this gem.

[@Thomasz-Tech-Innovations]

I work at Giant Food and it's 2019 and I thought this song was new.They started to play it like it's a new song multiple times a day.

[@TigerLibra1]

Another great song, sung by a great singer.

[@sanfranciscobay]

I was in High School in the San Francisco Bay Area 1969-1973. Music was about the musicians playing music. There weren't dancers, flashing lights, fireworks at the concerts, just the musicians. People were employed. The population of the U.S. was 207 million. Immigration was at low levels. The Vietnam War was in its final years. Don Mclean wrote the song "American Pie" in 1971.

[@PY5RA]

Finally found this song ~!!!! I work at Macy's and I been listening to this everyday.

[@askyrov]

I can't stop singing along thanks

[@elizabethwatts1778]

this song is amazing I listened to it about 5times

[@dizzyupmeems]

The most underrated band ever

[@cyc0maniac47]

underrated? they are one of the most popular metal bands. my teacher likes metallica

[@RogerTheil]

Underrated bands don't get played in grocery stores for middle aged fat women to hum along to.

[@MrChaotic4]

It's actually one guy.

[@everythingbagel9185]

Someone else already said it’s just one guy (which is correct) but I also thought it was a band because “Five For Fighting” sounded like a group

[@muzic3786]

Best song childhood 😍😍😍😍

[@5253abby]

So I heard this song while at Kings Island. I didn't know the name, nor whom it was by. I literally just typed in "no cellphones song lyrics American pie" in hopes of finding this song. Thank you Google, for helping me find this wonderful song.

[@savsayre]

These are really...REALLY good lyrics...wow.. it speaks to the apathetic state America has been in for a long time everyone, let's become a whole pie oh and good tune too

[@JalapaoMaji]

thank you..glad you like it guys.

[@Jeff98177]

Trivia: The tradition of holding up cigarette lighters (later cellphones) started at Woodstock. It was raining, and candles were passed out to the crowd.

[@LumpyLanny]

this song just reminds me of when i was just a bit younger and i hated this generation that i was born in and this song is just indiscriable

[@halea41]

This man is way too smart to be a modern musician, lol.

[@332MB]

So sad but true (and very well-said, even if it jest) -- the philosopher-musician holds an unclear place in modern pop. But I think this guy is a genius, both lyrically and melodically.

[@crunchs0ft]

this is legitimately the least deep piece of music ever written. it exists only to be played in commercials or at grocery stores.

[@OfficialAshArcher]

CFProductions eugh. Always one idiot in the comments - the song is full of meaning and introspect

[@radiscitrouille7716]

One of the best songs, such a feel good, nostalgic piece... Makes me miss high school and college, and I'm only 26...

[@silasmartin4459]

I was gently head banging to this beauteiful song and when i head bang it looks like i am having seizure

[@gabrielsasala1875]

I've worked at the home Depot for 4 years and I've heard this 3 times a day, and I finally found it to give it a dislike

[@ReggieMantle90]

I love this song. I reminds me a lot of summer and the fresh spring. :)

[@LeanneMustafa]

when im sad, this song makes me feel like crying, and when im happy, this song makes me want to jump up and dance. i cant think of many songs that have those kind of impacts on me in one song

[@sectiongang]

Perfectly said

[@patriciamurphy2085]

Oh my god - what a soul-lifter!!

[@novascotia1girl]

they play this song on my local radio a lot, for some reason when good songs like this play on the radio randomly, it makes them sound better to me.

[@mbraganza1]

Sooo love this song. Just purchased it in iTunes.

[@cassidyny]

wow the best picture starts at 33 seconds in my opinion I wonder where these places are.

[@phamster2574]

i wish i could like this twice...just so beautiful...

[@Ad_Astra2023]

i'm not even an american, but this song and its lyrics move me dearly somehow. :)

[@nickleization]

Worked at Pets Supplies Plus for a few months, this song played EVERY SHIFT! Still love it though

[@mrjohn5176]

Nice lyrics meaning, Good song writers

[@JalapaoMaji]

This sounds similar to 100 years at the beginning,but i still love it.

[@khalednegasipinto943]

The good old days,and am not even that old

[@Dragunity69]

They shouldve played this song in those American Pie movies. Its really fitting.

[@rjrclassof2013]

They play this at my job at least 8 times a day

[@tofufu1938]

Man, all these guys saying Kroger when my Home Depot plays this shit way too often. Last thing I wanna hear during my early ass shift.

[@MisterDoctorAustin]

I do love this song. And anyone who doesn't can comment all they want. They won't change the fact that this is an amazing song.

[@Chiang_Dragonfire]

The pictures make this AMAZING song even better!! Great job, JalapaoMaji!

[@redts12]

Love this song. It takes me back to the early 70's when as a teenager, I was there in those twenty thousand lights, swaying and singing and hoping the band would come back out and play one more song! It was great! Such good rock music back then.

[@shaylajacquelyn]

By the end of the song I wanna listen to it again and again and again. I can't get enough of this song!

[@onlylaurita]

2:02 I want this pic, so amazing! Love the vid and the song, thanks! (:

Half adore the song and half are sick of it cuz it’s on the grocery store radio all the time apparently.
