When news came out in 2003 that Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines said to a London audience, "Just so you know, we're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas", many country music fans and music industry experts turned their backs on the band. The band's future looked uncertain until they released their 2006 single 'Not Ready To Make Nice', a smart country-rock anthem that addressed the public outcry which surrounded them for so long. The song became a hit with the radio stations that played it. Shortly thereafter, they released their 2006 effort called "Taking the Long Way", a superb album detailing the trio's personal and public struggles after their downfall. Thankfully, the album has sold very well, becoming one of the best-selling albums of 2006. They recently won 5 Grammys, proving to their ex-fans and critics that great music conquers all and shouldn't be judged by a particular artist's political stance.Before they released their latest single and album, they released a music video for their song 'Top Of The World' from the 2002 album "Home". Here is the video in all its eerie but excellent splendor!
