Gotta do "Earl"

[@billnyethehighestguy6036]

Earl got what was coming to him

[@skyt3265]

and Not Ready to Make Nice live at VH1🙏🏼

[@keantiharris9805]

Earl with the video please 🙏

[@reneebush2399]

Goodbye Earl Music video is best I think.

[@sherydenslament]

Some of theirs I would recommend: Travelin' Soldier, Cowboy Take Me Away, Ready to Run

[@paxonearth]

I just drove with my wife from OKC to the Denver area to see "The Chicks" concert. Great show.

[@stardreamer26]

Cowboy Take me Away, Not Ready to Make Nice, Goodbye Earl, Cold Day in July,

[@annawestall4395]

Lol when this song first came out I was 18 and needed my "Wide open spaces"...now I am the mom watching my daughter go off to college, needing her own space. Hits a LOT different now.

[@jordanlear]

Their cover of landslide is amazing!!!

[@gypsyjengypsydogs9320]

Agreed. That could have gone a different direction but, they did a magnificent job with it. They did Stevie justice.

[@patticriss2238]

Natalie Maines has some serious talent and a whole lot of Texas pedigree. He dads band, The Maines Bros ruled west Texas and Amarillo when I was in college. We followed them everywhere. Saw Natalie coming along. That girl can sing and put on a show. She is no rookie. They were the “it” band for a decade. Until they were chastised by another country star and it ruined their careers and their lives. He never meant to divide. He didn’t think that far ahead. But it changed many li Ed and I believe began the “them versus us” mentality that we cannot escape.

[@shawnleaf6566]

I love their rendition of Travelin Soldier. I think you'll enjoy their story telling

[@jessicajones657]

Please continue to react to The Chics. Goodbye Earl and Ready to Run are fun while Not Ready to Make Nice is very upfront and also good.

[@jollyj3285]

They have soooo many great songs...Goodbye Earl, Cowboy Take Me Away, Ready to Run, Mississippi live, Travelin' Soldier

[@slimgym45]

We have the same smile listening to the crowd sing 😊

[@kristinabushnell3652]

A few other good ones of theirs are There's Your Trouble, When You Were Mine, and of course Goodbye Earl. Great reaction!! 🙂

[@patticriss2238]

Oh yeah. Earl. Good choice.

[@cathy8070]

LOVE the Dixie Chicks ♥️🇨🇦♥️

[@marieneu264]

This made me super emotional, even though I’ve had this CD since I was a freshman in high school. My daughter starts her senior year of high school next week and this just hit me hard. She’s ready for bigger and better things after this year.

[@toriboy25]

I love the violin/fiddle. May I suggest "Top of the World" by them. Travelin' Soldier is also great. Heck 96% of their songs are worth listening to!

[@kimcutts6153]

She has a great voice. 👍

[@lindanicholson950]

One of the few songs of theirs I even know. I liked it. At around the same time there was one called 26 Cents by the Wilkinson's.

[@helenpreisig6617]

This truly sweet song. I can tell you enjoyed it 👍🥰

[@theatheistbrony9332]

If we're doing Dixie Chicks I'd like to recommend 'Lubbock or Leave It.' That's a personal favorite of mine.

[@jcwalter9973]

This song was so huge. Every girl/young woman heading off to school. For me, I was just getting out of a divorce, and this was a bright hopeful was to face all the changes I was going through.

[@ericholbrook1733]

I realize that I'm a couple of years late to the party. I was a sailor. I've spent well over half of my life at sea. That's where I belong. When you are out there, a thousand miles from anything, you have time to think about life and the world. Wide Open Spaces...

[@raywormald3001]

Fantastic live!!!

[@beckyhelton5860]

So talented.

[@candilumpkin1196]

This album is great start to finish.

[@hunting_ali]

Susan Gibson wrote this song and I highly recommend everyone check out her music. She is phenomenal singer and songwriter.

[@korndogsmom]

I was gonna point this out. From my home town of Amarillo! We sure have wide open spaces. Susan is the real deal.

[@tristaperkins7112]

Definitely Goodbye Earl! Official video please.

[@Rosiepooh75]

I can definitely see your take on this, I've always seen it as chasing your dreams in general...

[@kalemorrow2243]

Morgan Wallen Cover Me Up and Seven Summers Ago are like mini films and amazing songs with stories you will love. You're welcome🤣

[@Jerry_Traphouse]

U made this video around the same type i remembered this so g. Havent heard it since a kid. Goes so hard 🔥

[@nicoleduke7883]

oh, you HAVE to watch Goodbye Earl! SUCH a fun song, but you have to see the video, and not live. The reason is because the video and the song are so closely tied, the video tells the stories, and has world class actors playing the parts. You won't regret it, but you won't understand the song live. I've watched an interview they gave talking about it, and they said themselves that they don't recommend people listening to the song without having first seen the video.

[@here4thecookies676]

@2:50 Speaking of- you should check out Lil Wayne’s No Ceilings mixtape

[@realtboi1]

Their name has been changed to the Chicks. They are one of my favorite bands... Several good songs listen away and enjoy.

[@skyt3265]

Not Ready to Make Nice live at VH1🙏🏼 you won’t regret it

[@rskeyesful]

The Long Way Around.

[@christerfurberg6538]

Don't worry, a violin is identical to a fiddle, they might just be called by different names in different contexts. And the reaction against their protest against Bush and the Iraq war was completely out of proportions. Saddam was a dictator, but I think most people nowadays, even most Americans, can see today that all the talk of weapons of mass destruction was just a lie. The Iraq war was even one of the reasons that Daesh could become so strong. Blind, unthinking patriotism at it's worst.

[@grilledspaghetti]

Which is a good Segway to my recommendation of "Not Ready to Make Nice".

[@1BEAST1775]

Check out cowboy take me away

[@thedirtygot9570]

The chicks can pound sand!

[@toriboy25]

Did you feel the same way when trump said P.O.W.s were not heroes because they got caught?

[@romanbellic6048]

Great video, Some classic west coast rap songs are by warren g. You should react to some of his songs. If you are going to react to his songs these are good ones to start off with. -Do You See -This D.J -Regulate Ft Nate Dogg. For some backround he was good friends with nate dogg and snoop dogg. They also had a group with the all 3 of them called 213. You might have heard these songs as they are extremly popular. Also use the explict version as they censor alot of words in the clean versions such as "Gun" "Cold" And a bunch of other words. He was also good friends with dre, He was actually step brothers with dre.

[@thedarkempress8304]

Please do Goodbye Earl (Official Video not live for reason you have to see to understand) and Travelin’ Soldier (live or official video is fine your choice both are beautiful) both by the Dixie Chicks

[@rskeyesful]

These ladies do it right in everything... on and off stage.

[@billspivey6919]

Earl

[@vCoralSandsv]

If you get a chance.. listen to Travelin Soldier

[@tomhiggins875]

Definitely an anthem for women everywhere.

[@Tom-fs4oo]

Gotta do “am I the only one”

[@beckyhelton5860]

Please do a review of Eric Chirch and Izzy Hale singing That Damn Rock ans Roll.

[@soratonin6972]

Sidebar that i have to bring up: Arent they called The Chicks now?

[@manger4000]

Yeah they went woke and dropped Dixie so they could appel to a more liberal audience

[@AmandaZuke]

Yes, they developed a greater understanding of the racism behind “Dixie” and upon knowing better, did better.

[@kyleb5169]

They were one of the best country bands in the business. Its unfortunate that they ruined their careers with politics. They could have been in the country music hall of fame otherwise.

[@toriboy25]

Oh grow up.

[@raywormald3001]

They were totally right, look where the USA is now, full of Retrumplican fools

[@douglasainsworth2448]

Great music. I might not care for their politics, but I always enjoyed the music and respect the talent. You should, as has been said, check out Fly, Cowboy Take Me Away, Traveling Soldier and Goodbye Earl. As to their politics, I will stand with the words attributed to Voltaire "I disagree with what you say. But I defend to my death your right to say it."

[@clydecalamity6520]

My boy, I think you'd love some other bands too like Nightwish, The Devil Wears Prada, Parkway Drive, etc etc.

[@vickystanley8853]

The backlash came from mostly The Industry not fans. I have a lot of friends & kin from the middle of Missisipi, through the center of Arkansas to Memphis & into the Ozark foothills. I've never heard of an actual person who said worse of them than maybe a foreign stage during a performance wasn't the best place for speachifying. (my Mamaw Millie's words). They dropped "Dixie" because they knuckled under to the powers that be.

[@krisarnold1869]

You gotta check out Upchurch "my own lane"🔥🔥🔥💯💯

[@underthetrees4780]

I'm a dude, but in my early twenties I moved "West", 2,500 miles across the US. This song is about me, it's lyrics are gendered but it's appeal is not.

[@philipclifford2314]

I remember when the Dixie Chicks dominated the charts. A backlash against them due to their (prescient) disgust with Pres. W Bush's 2nd Gulf War led to the excision of all liberal or feminist ideas from any song the Country Music Industry was willing to accept or promote. I believe this triggered an inexorable shift towards Bro Country and the abandonment of the Country genre by liberal creatives. Mirrors the widening political divisions in the USA during this time. ☹️

[@johnboydTx]

Enjoying your adventures in Music 🎶?? The difference between violin and fiddle are the strings....🤔 Organic or Composite strings Steel Strings Different sound resinence ☺️👍✌️

[@kestrelle5345]

The Dixie Chicks were "cancelled" because one of them said they were ashamed to be from the same State as Bush, during his Presidency. More's the pity.

[@BarneyBoy365]

Considering Bush dragged the rest of the world into war on the back of a lie, it sure was a pity. I don’t understand why America never ‘uncanceled’ them when they discovered the truth. So much for Freedom of Speech. I guess you need to be American to understand it 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@earlyre]

As others have said, summer of 2020 they dropped Dixie from The group name b/c of historical racist connotations the word evokes. They are now just "the Chicks"

[@danrudnick5252]

They had the audacity to come out against George Bush and the Iraq war and were immediately cancelled in country music. No country station would play them and people were burning their albums. They were hurt bad enough by the backlash that they dropped the "Dixie" from their name, because the land of Dixie didnt stand up for them.

[@Trifler500]

Yeah. Really repulsive the way they were treated.

[@betsyd58]

That's not correct. They change the name because of the negative connotations associated with the deep South and the word Dixie. And then they won a grammy after the All of the biggets try to ruin them by writing their very best hit ever. Not ready to make nice

[@ronnywestberry9503]

why does your videos glitch every time at the beginning. untill lately I don't remember this issue

[@bradendude1414]

Fiddle/Violin is the same instrument, and either would be correct. Those trying to specify that it needs to be called a fiddle are just being pedantic...

[@JohnCWannamaker]

Yeah it's almost all to describe the difference in playing style. Though some fiddlers prefer a flatter bridge so they can hit 2 or more strings more easily. Also apparently fiddlers prefer steel strings compared to the gut and synthetic strings violin players use. I didn't see anything in the 3 min of research I just did about this but I am confident I've seen fiddle players also hold the instrument completely differently. Like at their hip rather than neck or shoulder.

[@bradendude1414]

@@JohnCWannamaker playing a guitar standing or sitting still makes it a guitar, as does playing with different string materials. Lots of variations of bridge radius within the same stringed instrument, but that doesn't change the name. If anything, fiddler should just be applied to the person/ play style, much the same as you might call certain guitar players "shredders", but they're still playing the guitar. Might call it an "axe" but at the end of the day, it's still a guitar!

[@JohnCWannamaker]

@@bradendude1414 no I agree, but to some extent you could have some people consider a classical guitar a different instrument than a standard acoustic guitar. You're right they are both guitars but the differences do extent past simply how you play them. Like I consider a fretless electric bass guitar different than an electric bass guitar. A violin can be a fiddle though based entirely off play style while an acoustic guitar doesn't suddenly become a classical guitar just because you play classical music on it.

[@Trifler500]

Everyone who has described the difference to him has said they're the same instrument and the difference lies in how they are played.

[@1BEAST1775]

If these girls hadn't got political they would be Country music royalty today, they were great but their outspoken attitudes got them seriously canceled 😒

[@AmandaZuke]

*women.

[@toriboy25]

[@eldorajohnson3894]

After their remark overseas about President Bush, their career went downhill real fast.

[@Amaberean]

I know an awful lot of Country fans. But I don’t know ONE who wouldn’t say F them if you mention their name. We threw them out with the trash years ago. Lol

[@AmandaZuke]

That’s okay, the good folx of the world kept them.

[@vickystanley8853]

That's not even true. A few shunned them. The Industry wanted us to, but most did not.

[@toriboy25]

Are you wallowing in that trash?

Sorry, I don’t get your latest translucent videos, really no need to see your mic over the artists.

He's not allowed to show the video.

[@flickertit]

Shut it, Ed. Go watch the actual video if you need to see it.

[@monkeywithastick5718]

It was so disappointing when Natalie stood up in a foreign country and spoke against the nation. It was the last time I listened to anything the Dixie Chicks produced. They were an excellent band, but terrible politicians.

[@earlyre]

She didn't. She spoke out against a war she didn't agree with, and the president that lied to get us into said war. The shameful part was the gross overreaction by "fans" back in the states.

[@monkeywithastick5718]

@@earlyre That's what she said. in a foreign country. To a foreign crowd. She should have stayed there.

[@earlyre]

@@monkeywithastick5718 sir, since you haven't yet figured it out, it is entirely possible to vocally disagree with your Govt. and still love your country. as I tried to point out, Natalie didn't "Speak against the nation", She Spoke against A politician, and a political policy she didn't agree with. nothing treasonous about that. no reason to stay abroad. and yes, it happened in London. The UK was also roped into said war, and it was just as unpopular with many of their citizens. Being able to Publicly Disagree with your elected officials is a cornerstone of the American System.

[@toriboy25]

trump stood in a foreign country eating the ass of putin. Were you as upset then as you were at The Chicks?
