Who likes "Travelling Soldier?"

Hey, I never really listened to the Dixie Chicks, but one day my sister was singing the chorus and I discovered this song.

I checked on YouTube and found this great, live version:

So, who else likes it?

Good song. Too bad the Chicks recorded it. The songwriter, Bruce Robison, recorded it on his album, Long Way Home From Anywhere.

 

[WhoeverLovesGod01]

I didn't know about that...

 

[If Not For Grace]

This is an excellent song. Natalie is like Barbara Striesand, her politics smell, but she CAN sing.

 

[KenH]

Thanks for posting this. This is my favorite Dixie Chicks song.

 

[lightninboy]

Sure, I like it. It is one of the most country songs on the radio in recent years.

 

[BritanyNTexas]

I like the song, but too bad the Dixie Chicks recorded it. Maybe someone else that hasn't stuck their foot in their mouths can record it.

I like it, but my favorite Dixie Chicks song is 'Long Time Gone'. I like a lot of other Dixie Chicks songs, too. I'm apparently in the minority, because I didn't burn all of my Dixie Chicks cds just because they got foot-in-mouth disease. Those ladies (especially Emily and Martie) just play too well!!

I like it musically, but it sounds a little too much like a protest song to me. I didn't like it before "the incident."

I don't really care for the Dixie Chicks, I have not heard this song but would like to, I tried the link but no such luck, I'll try later when I have more time.

Their politics aside I like their music a lot & this song is excellent.
