Dixie Chicks Taking The Long Way Back

Posted by Slobokan @ 10:50 · 111 words · print

It appears the war U.S. country radio stations mounted against the politically outspoken Dixie Chicks has not abated in the least.

The first single, "Not Ready to Make Nice," only peaked at No. 36 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and the second single, "Everybody Knows," is moving downward after its peak at No. 48.

WKIS FM in Miami reported it pulled "Not Ready to Make Nice" due to listener complaints after only one week.

The program director at KUBL/KKAT in Salt Lake City told Billboard he was angered by its "self-indulgent and selfish lyrics."

Welcome back girls. You earned it. Hahaha.
