Truth No. 2, a potential follow-up single that appears at No. 70 on the chart this week, begins with this lyric: "You don't like the sound of truth coming from my mouth." - ----------- http://www.usatoday.com/life/music/news/2003-03-18-chicks-chart_x.htm Dixie Chicks' chart wings get clipped By Brian Mansfield, special for USA TODAY Natalie Maines' comments about President Bush cost the Dixie Chicks the top spot on the Billboard country singles chart this week. Natalie Maines, center, apologized for her anti-Bush remarks, but that hasn't stopped a Dixie Chicks backlash. By Frank Franklin II, AP Airplay for Travelin' Soldier, which had hit No. 1 the previous week, dropped 15% last week. Nearly all the decline came late in the week after reports that Maines told a London concert audience, "We're ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas." "Airplay for the Chicks did start to erode on Friday," says Wade Jessen, Billboard's country chart editor. (Related item: Listeners react.) On this week's chart, Soldier drops to No. 3. Joe Nichols' Brokenheartsville moves to No. 1, while Darryl Worley's pro-war Have You Forgotten leaps to No. 2 after just four weeks. A pop remix of Soldier by Sheryl Crow was sent to adult-contemporary stations this week by Columbia Records. In Houston, country station KKBQ-FM had been airing Soldier an average of 12 times a day. On Friday, after a poll on its Web site ran nearly 3-1 against playing the trio's music, program director Michael Cruise pulled the Chicks from the playlist. On Friday, Maines issued an apology statement that said, in part, "My remark was disrespectful. I feel that whoever holds that office should be treated with the utmost respect. ... While war may remain a viable option, as a mother, I just want to see every possible alternative exhausted before children and American soldiers' lives are lost." Nationally, radio's response to the controversy has been mixed. According to the R&R Hot Fax Country Update news sheet Tuesday, Cumulus Media has instructed all 42 of its country stations to stop playing the group's music until further notice. But Bob Richards at WFMS-FM in Indianapolis says he's continuing to play the record as he was before the controversy. "So far, it has not been a major issue with our listeners," he says. "What I'm choosing to do is offer Natalie forgiveness." As for Maines and the other members of the Dixie Chicks, their next comment may come more subtly. Truth No. 2, a potential follow-up single that appears at No. 70 on the chart this week, begins with this lyric: "You don't like the sound of truth coming from my mouth."
