      It was a time when Americans were shocked and hurting. It wasn't the time to say what she said. That wasn't how people acted back then. It's okay that you don't understand that, but it was a huge betrayal during a very difficult painful time. People got along better back then. They weren't as nasty as they are now, and her behavior was nasty. It's fits today's time not back then. I know you don't get it, and many young people don't, but life isn't always about being right sometimes it's about being respectful and caring about your country. I know that's got to be a strange concept now a days, but it wasn't back then. The betrayal was so deep that it was never forgotten by those that felt it.

    To all the DC haters here, who railed against Natalie Maines and threw out your Dixie Chicks CDs (because she honestly expressed her embarrassment of President Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the Neocons who lied us into Iraq): these words were written and sung by Maines especially for you...
    2:00
    "how in the world
    Can the words that I said
    Send somebody so over the edge
    That they'd write me a letter
    Saying that I better
    Shut up and sing
    Or my life will be over?"
    Simply one of the best songs ever written in the last 5 decades.

I remember how even my parents were upset with their MJ, and both of them were staunch Democrats. In the grand scheme of things, Natalie’s comments were extremely tame, especially compared to the horrible shit people say nowadays with no consequences: i.e. Kanye, Trump, Majorie Taylor Greene, etc.

      @Brian Dahlen Appropriately named..Gaslighter. They've been doing that for nearly two decades now, Gaslighting the public. Read the playlist...many are the tunes they originally recorded. They finally had to give credit for writing to the original songwriters on the rest, but you can see where they laid claim to "songwriting" wherever they could. Four days in, and Itunes had them at #1 for a day. Seems despite creating thousands of online accounts to request their new song, they got a one day blip there. You see, itunes list is developed from both actual sales and play requests with 100 spins equaling 1 sale on all major platforms. They have an easier time recruiting others to create multiple accounts in Canada, so expect it to be a raging chart hit there for a while. Even I can write a script to get on multiple accounts and repeatedly request and play any tune over and over again. I would not be surprised if the DC's spent the last year or so lining up any recruits they could to start repeatedly spinning the song. It's not doing so well on any other charts. I do expect that Sony (tho they aren't connected now, but were big time in the 90's), being the big dog at the table at RIAA, will be issuing a Gold award prematurely as they did when the DC's were on top of their game. I'm sure you WILL like it, as it contains a lot of old material.

    This will forever be my favorite performance of any song ever written/produced/ recorded. If it was possible to time travel, this concert would be my destination. No words could ever truly explain the honesty and bravery it took for this to even occur. The fact that each one of these women never let the negativity and controversy affect their integrity is honorable. One should never doubt their own worth based on others opinions. But I guess some Americans fail to acknowledge the contradiction they made by shunning talented genuine artists for expressing their first amendment.

See people don't understand their actions have consequences that's why I told this other lady at the store I was like why was it okay back in the early 2000s for a lot of Republican country fans to cancel the Dixie Chicks for their expression of freedom of speech but now look at the flip side. People learn from from their older constituents. And because a lot of people back then made stupid decisions it's the reason why people think they can bully Kanye West for being a trump supporter simply because he's a black man and hip hop. It's so childish no matter what music genre you're in you have the right to speak your opinion if you're an artist or not. I don't believe in if you're Entertainer your freedom of speech as a citizen should be taken away and you should just entertain people and act like a robot absolutely not. The Dixie Chicks did not deserve that and I'm a big fan of them because they spoke out when it was unpopular nowadays everybody just wants to be cool and woke and yes woke culture is annoying but back then it was different. Them people lost a lot but they gained a lot because today and 2022 we can look back and say those people were wrong. You have the right natural support of artists if you don't agree with her talking points but there was no need to burn CDs to try to ruin that careers call news stations to not get their music played send death threats all of that was extra

Dan asks if the song should possibly have a line or two that gives them an out of the hard line, "not ready to make nice", and Nat says absolutely not...but beyond that, they don't publicly discuss the alleged co-writing that went on for that song. Even the sisters outed their "co-writing" by saying how wonderful it was to work with such talented people and that all they had to do is express what they wanted the songs to say, and these "wonderful people" made it happen.
      However, you only need to look at the history of the DC's (and the industry) to understand why this is absolute bogus that the DC's co wrote those songs on that album. Just prior to that album, it was determined by mutual agreement within the industry, that song writers are due a percentage of sales on a song in addition to a one time payment like they received before. The DC's with Sony at their back, insisted on co writing credits as a prerequisite to having their work on the DC album to raise the DC's share . All they had to do was submit a theme and talk over the results with the many well established songwriters, and EVERY public statement about that album supports this. A bit like cake tasters after the real baker chefs had cooked.
      To further support the notion that they didn't write these songs, consider their history. They wrote two, count them, two songs in the decades' long history of the band and the multiple albums they put out prior.
      How likely is it, that after all that time and doing nothing but cover tunes written by others, that they could come up with a complete album where they were "songwriters"? That's not a switch you throw on, suddenly. Oh, you might have ideas, but to suddenly burst forth with that many? For every song, there is a real, well known professional songwriter on the credits. Given the disingenuous history of the DC's the needle swings toward the BS mark.
