“I had no damn idea you could sing,” Biden said to Yoon after he finished singing, as the audience gave the South Korean leader a standing ovation. McLean’s remarks come as Yoon turned heads with his rendition of McLean’s hit song, reportedly one of the South Korean President’s favorites. “American Pie,” released in 1971, has become a staple in American culture, being covered by artists such as Madonna and “Weird Al” Yankovic. “I hope President Yoon learns how to play the guitar that I signed so when we meet, in the future, we can do the song together!” I wish I could have been there, but there always is a next time,” McLean added. “What a moment last night was, as I watched the video clips. “I am honored that The White House had invited me to be at the event, however, I am in Australia on tour and could not be in two places at once,” McLean said in his statement.
