The Dixie Chicks are totally metal

This song appeared on my iPod without my knowledge, although I'm not discounting the possibility of Drunken Hijinx™!

I have now had it in my head for like three days.

I'm not ready to get involved in discussions about whether it is a good Dixie Chicks song, or whether Taking the Long Way is "a complete failure of an album and as hatefully sold a product as [some Slant guy has] ever encountered."

But:
1. Bitch has pipes.
2. Video is artful and pretty and also makes points.
3. How can this song possibly be necessary?
