美国著名民谣歌手Don McLean(唐·麦克林)的《Starry Starry Night》(星夜)是Don McLean为纪念荷兰的伟大画家文森特·梵高而作,收录在那张为其赢来巨大声誉的专辑《American Pie》(美国派)里,歌曲创作的灵感来自梵高的一幅著名的画作。歌的旋律流畅得浑如天成,词作也是如画般的唯美,让人想起德国小说家施笃姆的诗意小说中大段大段描写的空蒙月色,Don Mclean用原声吉它自始至终伴着他的叙事诗似的歌,把人们带入那冬天落雪的风景中。整首曲子的配器就是一把木吉他,极致的简约之美。
梵高最受人爱戴的名画就是1889年他住在St.Remy精神病院内所画的The Starry Night,也就是Don McLean在《Starry Starry Night》的第一句歌词。这幅名画The Starry Night现放于纽约Museum of Modern Art内,每天开始及完结时,艺术馆都会播放DonMcLean的《Starry Starry Night》这首名曲。

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
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
Chorus:
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Chorus:
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
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They did not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
