Howe's radically anti-South version is the one that is famous today and used in many Southern churches. If only people weren't so ignorant of history and eager to be PC, this sacriligous, militaristic, and murderous trash would never be played inside the borders of the South or in the USA either.
John Brown's Body was a set of lyrics written in 1860 in Massachusetts to accompany the tune that was written in 1855 in South Carolina. Many different lyrics were used throughout the War years, anti-North and anti-South. Julia Ward Howe's version (the one we all know, and the one that is part of ) was adapted from hearing the anti-South version of "John Brown's body" that she heard while in D.C. early during the War. I'm not concerned about the other versions, as they have no relevance today.
Actually, it is called From Dixie with Love. Our administration will not let us play Dixie, so they came up with a slow remix that they play at the end of games and in the Grove. FYI
Nope you're wrong. This is FROM DIXIE WITH LOVE. I'm a Rebel and hear it every day and we don't refer to it as slow dixie because it has its own name.
This song, "From Dixie With Love" (not slow Dixie), is based on "An American Trilogy" that Elvis did in the 70s. It combines Dixie with the Battle Hymn of The Republic. Any southerner who knows the negative history of the Battle Hymn wouldn't combine it with Dixie. Just like everything else at Ole Miss, this tune bows to the false gods of political correctness. The university should play the real Dixie or nothing at all.
Well, that's your almost tight. The battle hymn started out as a hymn, of course, but it was really popular in the south before the war. In fact, do you know the lyrics to John Brown's Body? It is set to the battle hymn and was very popular in the south before and after the war. Southerner's of the reconstruction used this song to poke at the north after the war and is partially why the song is Auburn and Georgia's fight song.
Never heard 'em sing Glory to Ole Auburn, have ya. Well, they didn't play it much this year because they play it after touchdowns or pats. i cant remember.

Wow...nice reception. It's like the 60's never happened.
So when Ole Miss fans are happy they don't sing Forward Rebels, or Go to Hell, LSU...they're dancing to Dixie like the Battle of Vicksburg was last week.
I am so gonna enjoy beating their butts over the next 4 years. In Seersucker!!!
This song isn't Dixie. Don't come on here and make such absurd comments, especially if you're going to demonstrate your obvious dearth of understanding on the situation.
pretty ignorant comment by you...it was a nice gesture by the grooms father in law...nothing more, nothing less. get over it. quite an assuption you make in saying hired help...seems you may need to look in the mirror.

too bad he didn't have perfect rhythm to go along with that perfect bow. oh, and too bad he didn't have a real stick to wave that imaginary flag with. i bet the hired help was none too happy to suffer through that crap.
Thanks for sharing, loved it.

Auburn's fight song is not the Battle Hymn of the Republic. UGA on the other hand, not so fortunate.

O they sing it plenty but it ain't the fight song.
Saying Glory to Ol' Auburn is the fight song is like saying Rocky Top is UT's fight song, it just ain't so.
And yea, Auburn's offense couldn't cross the street this year even if you spotted them the middle of the road.
