In other news ( I'm making up for all the entries I didnt manage to get to in the last few weeks...), I saw this beautiful and amazing video , and fell in love with it. ( You have to click on the "Not Ready To Make Nice" link to get to QuickTime player). I think Sophie Mueller is just great anyway, but to do such a visually and thematically powerful video for a band like the Dixie Chicks ( who really personify my personal iimage of strong, sassy women) is a stupedous feat for the country music world. No sign of hay or tractors anywhere, it sort of breaks the mold in that genre, and stands on its own as a wondeful piece of work all by itself anyway.

Oh, to make work like that....
