Don McLean has seen Vincents paintings and has seen what Vincent was trying to show/say with them. Don McLean is trying to tell us (the listeners) that no one would listen to what Vincent was trying to say, and that people didn't realise the true meaning of Vincents paintings, People thought of him as odd. Don McLean's greatest point is that we as a society should become more accepting. Throughout the song Don McLean uses positive connotation and then straight after uses negative connotation. This is to show how even on the happiest of days, Vincent felt sadness and sorrow. In the poem Don McLean uses the pronoun 'they' at the beginning there are a number of different possibilities of what is meant by they; society, Vincent's family, Vincent's troubles, Vincent's 'demons'. But by the end we can tell that the 'they' is society. VINCENT parallels the song American Pie in that it is also an allusion. The song is NOT about Van Gogh, but Van Gogh is the allusion. Likewise, American Pie is NOT about Buddy Holly, rather dedicated to him. Buddy Holly is an allusion (not illusion, but allusion).

Don McLean – Vincent Lyrics. from album: American Pie (1971). Starry, starry night Paint your pallet blue and grey Look out on a summer's day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul. Shadows on the hills Sketch the trees and the daffodils Catch the breeze and the winter chills in colors on the snowy, linen land. Now I understand what you tried to say to me And how you suffered for your sanity, and how you tried to set them free They would not listen - they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now. For they could not love you - but still your love was true And, when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night, you took your life as lovers often do But I could have told you, Vincent, this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you. Starry, starry night Portraits hung in empty halls Frameless heads on nameless walls with eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
