They were one of the best selling groups around at the turn of the millennium. Then they bashed the US President on foreign soil right as a war was beginning. They basically fell off the earth.

Cowboy Take Me Away is a great song.

They were the classic example of why mainstream artists should stick to doing what they do and leave politics out of their shows. Travelin Soldier was a solid song as well.

Yes
They
Did

I didn't really have a problem with WHAT they said but WHERE they said it. I'm NOT a W fan at all but I wish these SJW snowflake nutjobs would have said hat shite in TX instead of London......the look on their faces would have been priceless

I'm Not Ready to Make Nice was a great song about the backlash. But it's the last song of theirs I remember hearing.

I think the real issue was she/they doubled down on it. If they had just let it be, I don't think the backlash would have been as bad or lasted as long.

I think what really did them in was the ensuing back and forth with Toby Keith, after he made a comment about it, she comes out on an awards show wearing a shirt emblazoned with the letters FUTK.
