first of all, Madonna's 'American Life' sucked hard--it wasn't even for the fact that her first video slammed Bush but it was because the album was filled with weak melodies, half-baked lyrics, awful vocals (w/ way too much vocoder). as for the dixie chicks, sure they got a lot of flack in the press but their last album sold through the roof and won album of the year at the grammies. i don't think DMP would be all that successful here in the states but I know a lot of people are going to love it because of all the anti-bush sentiment in our country. In any case, I agree with everyone else that P!nk's label is flat-out stupid if they don't release LWTH....i think it would be as big a hit as Behind These Hazel Eyes. They've got similar themes and are both pretty effective power ballads which everybody in the US seems to love (i.e. Nickelback, Evanescence).
