Dixie Chicks Lyrics

    ------ About the song Travelin' Soldier performed by Dixie Chicks

My dad is in the united states military and has been deployed several times. Every time he leaves all I can do is thank my lucky stars he is as strong as he is. All you good men and women out there, I hope you realize how much you mean to me for restoring the peace and keeping our homes safe! This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it and I can't help but think about all of the people who haven't been as lucky as me and have lost a love one to a war. It may feel like you are the only one who feels pain over this, you aren't I will share in that burden with you regardless of who you are! Know that their sacraficre does not go unnoticed or unappreciated. Stay strong.

    ------ About the song Not Ready To Make Nice performed by Dixie Chicks

It was an insult to our troops when the country that they were fighting for was called stupid they're a great band true but that doesn't excuse what they said
if they think America is stupid then why do they live here
if they believe that then they shouldn't be here and it hurt a lot of soldiers to hear them say that I should know my dad was in the military at the time
so don't go saying they didn't do anything wrong because they did

    ------ About the song Travelin' Soldier performed by Dixie Chicks

My traveling soldier went of to war, wrote me letters and told me his heart was sore, I cried and cried until I couldn't cry no more. This song says one night at a football game well the band played but no one sang when they heard those names. I cried when I heard thhihs song...at first I was so mad at god for taking him away, but now i can say I orgive him. But love will never be forgotten.

    ------ About the song Landslide performed by Dixie Chicks

I've loved this song as long as I can remember. I'm now 21. I want to state for the record, however, that this was not a fleetwood mac song originally. Before Stevie Nicks was a part of Fleetwood Mac she was a part of Buckingham Nicks. They were the ones to originally do this song. Just a little fun fact for you.

    ------ About the song Not Ready To Make Nice performed by Dixie Chicks

Seriously grow up. Don't you have better things to do than sitting around, commenting on a song you hate? Why are even searching around for something your strongly against? And Eric,I guess you couldn't resist ruining everyone's day, by posting rude things about their favorite band.(To anyone) The Dixie Chicks did nothing wrong. What, just because their famous means they don't get an opintion? "Shut up and sing" huh? Well shut up and use ur head. They didn't say they hated the troops! They said they didn't like Bush. The troops fight for our country, our FREEDOM OF SPEECH. So don't lash out at the chicks until you get a good look at yourself. Would you burn some lady's stuff just cause you heard her say she didn't like Obama? No, of course not. I would be just as angry if someone, sratch that, almost everyone in America, tried to ruin my life just 'cause I expressed my opintion. The Dixie Chicks aren't here "just to enertain us", and they have every right to put their heart and soul into their music. This song is art and someone's feelings so stop trashing it.

You Go Girls!

On May 6th 2010 there was a guy who I had known since I was 4 years old who died in a car crash... He was the coolest guy I had ever known, he was the reason his family had a great time... Now one of his younger sisters tryed to strangle the person who drowe too fast then crashed into her brother's car with accident wich killed her brother just half an hour later, the last time she saw the person who did it... :'( His youngest sister is doing worse in school and making up excuses of why hasn't done her homework... They writing shit about the person who drowe into their brother on facebook and are mean to him all the time... They won't accept that he didn't drive into/killed him Intentionally, and the guy who did it wanted it to be him! But every night I dream about the guy I knew telling them to stop hating on the guy who did it, 'cause it could have happened to anyone who drives like total IDIOT!!
I think of the guy who died as a travelin' soldier because he was fighting against the people around him who were lieing and for the ones who wanted people to tell the trouth... Now almost all the people I know that he knows lieing others right up in the face about what really happened in the car crash! :'(

    ------ About the song Godspeed (Sweet Dreams) performed by Dixie Chicks

My nephew was tragically killed this past Monday in an accident with a snow plow that his father was driving. He was 2 years old. At his memorial service they had a beautiful photo collage of him, his family & friends & this song was played to part of it. It was the most beautiful, most perfect song to be played. It touched everyone at the service deeply. We will always miss him & we all know that he is in a better place filled with loved ones that we had lost before him. I know that he will be protecting & watching over his family & especially his newborn sister. We love you & will always miss you & whenever we look up at the moon we will think about you. Love always- Aunt Lauren

You guys might check Stacey Kent's version. Very pure and heart-warming.

I think the song is so great, cause it speaks to each person's heart. The fear of not knowing what's waiting in life, the feeling of facing life when we are not sure what it would be.

Things in life would change, we can not remain the child inside forever, but hope we can muster enough courage to face it all. Even it would be rain, and storm...

    ------ About the song Silent House performed by Dixie Chicks

This song is really beautiful and deep but what fascinates me most is the shade of loss in it. I believe that it is about bringing back those days of happiness with a person whose "mind was clear" then and who consequently suffers from a mental disease and is still alive but unaware of time and reality. The lines "Every day that will pass you by/every name that you won't recall/books in scattered piles of paper shreds" evidently point at the mental derangement and it's getting sad to see the contrast between the past happy years and the hurt of present. Thus it's hard to realize that nothing's the same anymore but anyway those memories give you strengh to carry on and feel the beauty of the moment ("a chill fills the air and THE LILIES BLOOM").
