So I’ve started watching SNL reruns on MuchMoreMusic every night, right now it’s episodes from 2004 that I vaguely remember watching in a haze during my third year of university, but anyway, The Dixie Chicks were the guests tonight and I’d never heard this song—Travelin’ Soldier—before and it’s AMAZING. Just enough twang but with the political message the Dixie Chicks are known for. Like a One Tin Soldier for our generation. (That song, btw, will forever make me tear up. I’ve clearly inherited my mother’s 1970’s sentiments/emotions about all things war related…)
