Dixie Chicks writing not ready to make nice

[sheneverworeshoes]

#1. In the US, we are entitled to freedom of speech...the (and even George Bush agreed). If you don't like it, express your own opinion or go live somewhere else.

#2. They were RIGHT.

[tenajennaremarc]

women are strong and have a right express all of their emotions, ideas... how is the backlash against the Dixie Chicks any different than the Salem Witch Hunts? Have we not evolved as a human race?

[galvo1981]

Lve the Dixie Chicks. Always will :)

[peternoutch]

is that nathan petrelli from heroes at 0.51 ???

[flickthis]

lol yep. He is the husband of Natalie Maines.

[rothima]

Not Ready To Make Nice is a inspiration song.

I love it and it's my favorite ever.

[anastassiades]

how could anyone see natalie, with her tough-texas-girl big hair-do, wailing on a bass guitar, and then see natalie with no make-up and her plump upper arms in a little flowered housedress (or something), wearing headphones and singing her heart out, and not love her?

[megthompson4]

I thought being American meant that everyone was allowed to have their own opinion and they have freedom of speech. every time I turn on the TV all I hear is about the wars fighting for the freedom of Americans. I guess The Dixie Chicks werent American enough for Bush to believe in that rule, in their case. Great Band, they have so much to be proud of.

[mnat28]

They're the best!

[ohnoyouaint]

I will always love you Dixie Chicks. always.

[bekah1330]

I think they did the right thing and stood up for themselves and each other.

[Milton9409]

I would be proud if DC came from my country and be really ashamed if Bush did.

[horselover1773]

Natalie was just speaking what she felt, there is nothing wrong with that. I'm so sick of politics too, EVERYONE DESERVES TO SAY WHAT THEY ARE THINKING!

[slunacourtier]

That newsreporter is from a station in my hometown in Lubbock, Texas., where Ntalie is also from. All I could was root for NAtalie and the Dixie Chicks as they voiced what they felt. Especially through Natalie's song Lubbock Or Leave It.

[ScadianNC]

Fucking straight they aren't ready to "make nice". I'm a Vet...I'm mad as hell, and I'm still not ready to make nice. FUCK 'EM!

Fuck 'em all that told the DC's to shut up...regardless if you agree or disagree...fuck you if you if want to tell them to shut up, or say something they don't believe.

I'm a Rock and Roll fan. Old damn school. I bought every DC CD and as long as they keep making music "i'm still waiting" for them to say what it is they think THEY should. And I'm still buying.

[Jessymoe]

it brings me to tears....... i am so moved that some people have the breavery to stand up and say what so many is thinking and feeling!!!

you go girl!!! dont ever back down!!! people shouldnt be afraid of the goverments..... goverments should be afraid of their people..... i dont understand how fellow americans feel they have the right to threaten these girl freedom of speech for ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[54spiritedwill54]

amazing girls =)

[bendkafka]

The events surrounding this song made a certain group of Americans take a good hard look at themselves in the mirror. If it divided hearland America it was all for the best in the long run.

[bigdaddyquey]

sad to say america now is the land of the free home of the over sensitive! unite america now! so sick of politics!

[DidYouMissIt]

i love the fact that radio stations refused to play this song and it was a grammy and they won album of the year - LMAO!

the right wing didn't win this one!

[Rissa2394]

i think its great. end of story. people can take me the way i am or dont take me at all.

[oceanicwhisper]

i know! me too!

[beautifulldizaster]

gosh i want to see shut up and sing really bad!!!!!!!!

[GoDixieChicks]

You can watch the full documentary on Google video - just search for "shut up and sing", it's the first one that comes up.. ;-)

[beautifulldizaster]

hey, thanks a lot!

[PrincessOfWebkinz7]

me too!!!

[pascalt1987]

how in the world can the words that SHE said send somebody so over the edge that they'd send HER a letter saying that SHE better shut up and sing or HER life will be over??????????????????????????­???????

[beautifulldizaster]

what do you mean?

[TakeTheLongWay]

I recommend this documentary to everyone. It's really amazing. You see them at their worst and then you see them come out the other side stronger than ever before. I loved them before I saw this but my respect for them shot through the roof after I saw this. They are truly amazing women. They are wonderful role models for women of all ages.

[stuartcrowder]

This is one of the best Doc/films I have ever seen and has made me an even bigger fan of the chicks than before! I take my hat off to them and they deserved every award they got at the grammy's for standing up for what they believed in, there my hero's!

[WahyuWibie]

this video is part of "Shut Up And Sing" film

[vegeta2332]

man at 2:09 .. that part talk about what we in the USA are.. now.. my professor told me once. "in 1963 the Ex-CIa director may a statment" there are 2 type of control news.. CCAp news is total control.. USA news.. give us good news..bad news.. and wrong news.. " she told me that and wow.. " people should not let BUSh out offic ith out being put on the Chair and put on TRAIL..

[Bloomie]

im glad they wrote this song

and they won grammys for it too

u go girl

[JackOzUK]

I LOVE THESE GIRLS SO MUCH !

[ElStupyBros]

american airline center in tx! dallas. play hockey games there love it

[Nele18]

amazing girls =) !!!!

[iluvdogs0322]

i love them soooo much keep singing and over come obsticales

[heywhatdoukno]

in the song, the most amazing line is when when natalie sings "forgive, sounds good. forget, im not sure i could". This song moved me so much, I was hooked on this song the day it was released, and i don't intend on being bored with it.

[coffeekisses]

yes this part of the movie was the best! it was so strong and scary!

[gerthkebler]

Women with balls! You go Dixies, I know many men who dont have one tenth the courage you've shown. The Rove/Dumbya divide and conquer, red vs blue tactics are pure evil. And I for one DEMAND MY COUNTRY BACK! I sure as Hell aint ready to make nice either. I wonder what Hank Williams, Johnny Cash or Woody would think about country fans abandoning these ladies for speaking thier minds?

[Dezzo090]

truth

[boomac62]

How can anybody give your comment a thumbs down? You are right on the money!keep going and Peace my friend!!!

[cincygurl]

Such an amazing documentary whether you're a Chicks fan or not...These women are true talents and will be remembered as one of the greatest female bands/bands of all time.

[boybandmassacre]

leave her alone!

[emilayyyxoxox]

lol@stupid radio stations.

seriously..

natalie had a right to say what she said,

its a free country, isnt it ?

i personally dislike bush, and im canadian.

[boomac62]

I heard tell that this was once a country that allowed and protected free speech...

[SchraderRose]

Yo, boomer - it still is. I don't see them sitting in prison (unless you consider a mansion in Cali a prison)

Try talkin' smack about Chinese Government - Tibetan freedom anyone?

[vegeta2332]

china invade Tibetan 50 years ago.. and the President in office wsa IKE and he DID nothing.. 50 year = 8 year.. not good math.. but the last 8 year have been the WORST of THE USA in looking to WHO is the USa.. BUSH is a MONKEY....

[stupidkid1070]

if you call getting death threats and banned from radio free speech... i geuss your an ignorant american

[NobleDuke]

You're bright, I can see by your name. Tiger Woods get death threats everytime he plays a golf tournament. Mother Teresa, Princess Diana, Dalai Lama. I guess the difference is their not selling a documentary that says Boo Hoo poor me. Free Speech moron? The government didn't arrest them, charge them, or oppress them. Their former fans who bought the CD's did. Go to the Sudan and see what happens to people who speak out against government. They Die. You're a fucking idiot.

[SchraderRose]

Hey Stupid - I call being able to my rights to let Chicks (they ain't Dixie no more) know how I feel by refusing to buy their records a great American freedom.

And your right to get on this internet, talk about whatever you want, go to any site you want, do whatever you want is TERRIFIC ain't it? I may not agree with your views, but at least we have the freedom to argue about it!

Try accessing the internet in China.

[christieeya]

I don't think it's America that's the problem. It's the AMERICANS. They can't accept the fact that people are enitled to their own opinion. And if they don't agree they should leave them alone. Not take the time to write a letter that threatens someone else's life. Murder? They're not able to do that without being punished. Are people that hateful? I can't stand it.

[christieeya]

He's lost a lot of respect in many COUNTRIES! I personally REALLY knew I wasn't a fan when he said

"Too many good docs are getting out of the business. Too many OB-GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country."

OMG.. are you serious..

[danielzfurii]

prob one of the best parts of the movie.. if you haven't seen it go see it..

[SmalltownGrl15]

Im Not against or for bush, But i do Know that people make mistakes, And Because Bush cant Say a speech without messing up, Doesn't make him a bad guy,

Im not saying his decisions are correct or he is a good president though, I disagree with many things he has done..

[vegeta2332]

ok.. so we should excuse everything he did because he is a nice guy even though he BALLON SPENDING we as people are going to PAID THE NEW IMPROVED DEBT we will be SCREW for 50 yrs..you believe that I know better what is NICE and WORTHLESS people...

[april941990]

just because somebody is using their constitutional right of free speech it shouldn't make them a victim of sheer ignorance! that's what the first amendment is for!

[ohnoyouaint]

I love you girls always have always will.You Did it! you won all those awards screw everyone else there just too mad because you all showed them you all were right .I'm with you all all the way and i'm not even political.Sang girls Sang!

[jadamarie1989]

Always have been my absolute favorite band of all times... Keep on rockin' chicks!

[RENAZLOVER]

I love them.

Screw all you haters.

=D

You ladies are wonderful.

[adrianascpc]

Amazing women with principles and talent!!

Maybe we can see it a lot clearer this side of the Atlantic but it seems to me that the Dixie Chicks have far more supporters than detractors. Was never really a Country Music fan but I sure as hell am now.

[vegeta2332]

THESE 3 WOMAN (YES) 3 wOMAN stood up and may a STATEMENT (QUESTION BUSH ACTION).. why NO ONE STOOD UP and QUESTION..we now see how BAD the situation in the USA has become.. these 3 woman gives hope for this country... by standing up.. and SPEAKING UP..WE have the right to question it is our RIGHT

[vegeta2332]

i seen this and i am not a fan of follower of CM but the film made me understand the hard work the did to expose CM and IT is SAD how CM turn there back on them..CM (PEOPLE) should apologies but that will never happen due to that people have not looked at the mirror

[ohnoyouaint]

I'm so over every one ''loving'' the dixie chcks now that they won all these awards of course everyones like... Oh I can't get enough of them,And They where right.Where were you monsters when the were being betrayed ? Go girls? About 2 years ago everyone hated them now it's like Go dixie chicks! I don't know? I'm just so mad of how our own country betrayed them.I always stood beside them.I cried when they were nominated for * grammys and won.I'm so proud of them.

[emily2020us]

i think whatever u said was right and i love all u guys even cause u guys didn't back down iam proud of ya

[ogdocvato]

Guess what? George W. Bush makes me ashamed to be a human being!

[ChicksRockChicksRule]

Nice one! I'm ashamed also. I'm ashamed he's from Texas also. And my hometown.

[alraiga]

is that all just cause the girls said were not proud that the presedent is from our home country???

[velveteenweb]

Yeah, Nat said that they were ashamed the President is from Texas.

[astaganagara]

i think the whole issue is not a matter of freedom of speech, instead it all points down to hardcore DENIAL! for the sake of the dead, tell me which puny contributions by mr. bushie that actually makes the world a better place to stay?

Bush, you're the one who should SHUT UP & RESIGN...

[gpmasch]

go to president bush bloopers and tell me should he be running a nation.

[dixiechicksmusic]

guess what? I'm ashamed president bush is an american.

[ohnoyouaint]

I hear you girl!

[fangelchild]

I love the Chicks. I always have, since I was very young. Keep singing, Chicks! You are three of the most beautiful women in the world! And you will have my back to the end!

[beautifulldizaster]

thanks for posting i LOVE the dixie chicks!!!!!!

[ohnoyouaint]

I'm sorry did somebody just win 5 GRAMMYS? thank you!

[ohnoyouaint]

WHITH all my heart and all my soul.....I love you guys!!!! so much youll never know!

[docmauney]

I'm an American soldier with a year of combat under my belt. One of the reasons I raised my right hand and joined, knowing I was going to war, was so I could defend that whole freedom of speech thing. Remember that? I was willing to die for it, so why can't other American "patriots" lay off the girls. Keep it up Dixie Chicks...I'm naming my daughter Natalie.

[ilovemusic555]

ahhhh fucking amazing!!!!!!!!! I can't get enough of this song!

[rundrea]

they didnt say anything wrong what was so wrong their actual statement was just so u all kno we are on the good side with u all and we dont support this violence or this war and we are ashamed that the president of the united states is from texas...........i love the dixie chicks

[CANADIANLIBRA]

You girls are welcome in Canada anytime. It is nice to see people standing up for what they believe in.

[psychocindy]

Women who behave never make history! <grins and winks>

Chicks kick ASS! Always and forever.

[RustyCyler]

great job chicks, stick to your values, the rednecks can all go to iraq.

[trexx32]

I love the fact that everthing they said was true and the dumbass country fans couldn't handle it.

[edisonoside]

Dixie Chicks will go down in history as brave and in sight-full artist that where right and not Fooled by the Bushco/Fox-news mentality that fooled so many country music fans...You girls are true American Patriots.

[trexx32]

I completely agree, in one short comment they when from pop-country singers to true artist. Im not even a country fan

[moremilk4me2pleez]

OMG! Thanks so much for uploading this! I love this part! Dixie Chicks I love you!

[ChicksRockChicksRule]

Great Film!! I thought Martie was going to cry again for a second! But she's a big girl, she can fight it off!!

[Magameg782]

GREAT! This is my favorite part in the movie!

[ozzwilson]

I'd be so scared. I have a lot of respect for them.

[aitanmelman]

I love this part! It's so powerful.

[JoshGreenlafa]

Wow very powerful! It's cool to see how they wrote the song.

[ilovemusic555]
