Hi everyone:
I'm at home now recovering from my recent biopsy in my left breast again. This has been the fourth time too. It wasn't in the duct this time, though.
Anyway, the song in question is " Ode to Billy Joe" by Bobbie Gentry. I always thought the thing they threw over the bridge was a baby. The movie depicts something else.
I never put it together that his character was raped by a man and that's why he committed suicide.

The youtube lady looks like Celine Dion to me, but not sure.
