Sunday on KIX 102 FM, Casey Kasem hosts an “American Top 40” show that originally aired during this week in 1972. We’ll hear Don McLean’s “American Pie” — one of the longest songs ever on pop radio — and it appears to be headed for #1. Elsewhere, two versions of the song that became a Coca-Cola ad are in the Top 15: “I’d Like To Teach The World To Sing” by The New Seekers, and by The Hillside Singers.
