Rejected Tour Names


So never before have I been soooo excited about a new album coming out as I have been able to the Dixie Chicks new album!!! I am ready for it all I have missed them sooo much in the past couple of years. I know they have been busy adding to their brood of babies, but also preparing for a comeback so much needed.

I know some will not agree with me they still have a sore spot for them due to a line said in between songs. My thoughts are they just vocalizes what SOOOOOOOOOO many of us were feeling but do not have the forum to get the words across. I am proud to say that I am a democrat. I had a conversation with a cousin and then her parents at my high school graduation so many years ago, that they both said they started out with the same feelings that I have had and they eventually switched sides. I still feel as strong about the issues that make me a Democrat now, some of the issues are more prevelant and dominant with higher understanding of what it means to have that view on that issue. Either way I still agree with what Natalie said, I am on the same wavelength.

Their new single that has been sweeping the airwaves, the lyrics are quite potent and with the music...pure Dixie Chicks! one of the reasons I have been such a big fan.
"Not Ready to Make Nice"
Click here to listen to the song!
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting
I’m through with doubt

There’s nothing left for me to figure out
I’ve paid a priceAnd I’ll keep paying
I’m not ready to make nice

I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said

Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world aroundAnd I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby

With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over
I’m not ready to make nice

I’m not ready to back downI’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I’m not ready to make nice

I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
Forgive, sounds good

Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting
