The Chicks Revive “Not Ready to Make Nice” Performance on Kimmel
The Chicks performed their song “Not Ready to Make Nice” on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The performance marked the 20th anniversary of their Grammy-winning album Taking the Long Way.
The Chicks brought their hit song "Not Ready to Make Nice" back to the stage on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. The performance coincided with the 20th anniversary of their Grammy-winning album Taking the Long Way.
Dressed in red, the trio performed the song accompanied by a band and string instruments. Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire, and Emily Strayer delivered the piece with a powerful stage setup to the audience.
Background of the Song
"Not Ready to Make Nice" was written in response to the backlash the group faced due to their comments about then U.S. President George W. Bush and the Iraq War. The song became one of the most notable musical responses from the group during that period.
At the time, the group was known as Dixie Chicks and released their seventh studio album Taking the Long Way in 2006. The album won five Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year.
Return for the Album’s 20th Anniversary
The performance on the show served as a tribute marking 20 years since the album’s release. The Chicks reminded audiences of the song with a live rendition after many years.
"Not Ready to Make Nice" was also recognized as one of the top 100 songs of 2006. Reviews highlighted it as a powerful anthem for young women from small towns with big dreams.
Maguire’s distinctive violin parts added character to the performance. The stage arrangement brought the group’s classic sound into a contemporary television setting.
