This version, “Dixie, with love” mixes and alternates between the Battle Hymn of the Republic, which was the union (north) battle song, and the south’s song, Dixie, symbolizing how the country eventually came back together. This is crucial context to tell people who think that the band is only playing Dixie here.

Iowan here: Banning this is just ridiculous. The Iowa Marching Band played this beautiful song all during the 80s and the crowd loved it. Fabulous tradition - it really honors both north and south

As a lifelong Alabama fan. Let the band play Dixie. One of my favorite sec traditions outside of Tuscaloosa. Miss hearing this, gave you chills everytime. Hasn’t been the same since

Sad sad, liberals have nothing to to hang on to but I will always have Dixie

Go to South Carolina.. from Connecticut. As someone from one of the most liberal states in America it truly disgusts me that ppl especially ppl up north want to tear down your beautiful traditions. Anyone who thinks this song or Dixie’s Land represents Slavery is dead wrong and even if they do think so it is ridiculous that they feel the need to enforce their stupid rules on your beloved tradition. Southerners should be allowed to express love for their heritage and ancestors as well as where they’re from without anyone bothering them

Andrew Brown Dixie with love was written by a previous Olemiss band director who happened to be from New York but married a woman from Mississippi. Dixie with love isn't just Dixie. It borrows the melody and that's about it. It has nothing to do with racism or slavery.

The idea and the culture of the Southern states as an entity are so much more than just this one aspect that is the segregationist past ; when Ole Miss alumni hear this song, their song, it's only about the Cultural Heritage and pride in their university, not in any celebration of racism ! To try and kill the cultural identity of so many people for political correctness is criminal ! Respect to the Great South from France.

God bless the Ole Miss I remember.

DAMN DAMN DAMN HOW I MISS THIS SONG,OLE MISS PLAYS IT WITH SUCH PASSION,LOVE,AND RESPECT THAT ITS HANDS DOWN THE BEST I HAVE EVER HEARD ROLL ON REBELS,HOTTY TOTTY

So So sad. We need to bring Dixie back!!!! They can take our statues but they cant take our hearts and music!!!

Can you see the pride that was felt among the fans as well as the absence of hate? The young lady wanting to stand is the natural reaction when listening to Dixie. Northern politicians and bureaucrats have been waiting a long time to take that away from the South. They needed just one excuse and one insider with authority to bring it down once and for all and they couldn't be more delighted that it's done. They've done their best to strip their pride and left them with a goofy land shark. Well guess what baby, they're still Rebels.

I would just like to chime in. I'm a liberal and a Georgia Tech fan and soon to be student hopefully. I think they should unban it for the same reason I think they should bring back Chief Illiniwek at Illinois. There are thousands of universities and colleges, hundreds in each state. If you don't like the atmosphere at one, go elsewhere. This isn't a liberal thing. This is a "I can't control my emotions, so everyone control them for me" thing. I've seen conservatives do the same thing. Come in and try to change every little thing to make it fit their idea of what it should be. Mississippi is stuck in the past? Well that's their choice as Americans. Fascism is bad from either wing, left or right.

Bring back Slow Dixie and Colonel Reb.

You might want to listen to "Dixie" and "From Dixie with Love". These are two different songs, I played them both. Similar, but different in their own special way. It's despicable that Dan Jones bows to the ghosts of the past instead of rebranding them. Had Jones embraced the chant of the South will rise again during "with Love" and said it will indeed rise again just economically, culturally, socially, he could have helped usher in a new era at Ole Miss and for Mississippi.

Hooray for Dixie!

Absolutely! Well said. Sadly though it is okay to kill the cultural identity of some because a few don't like it. Go Rebels and bring back our heritage!

God never blessed just Dixie. He blesses all His people in the entire world, a small part of which is Dixie.

I just don't understand the big fuss I am from the MS delta and I'm black and this song does not bother me. I know y its being played and to be honest its a beautiful song..

People misunderstand why the ole miss band was forbidden from playing it in public. It happened because there was a group of students that would shout "the south will rise again." during the song even after University officials requested that they stop.

Florida born and bred and the rest of the southern states today have no fucking clue what an impact the state of Florida had on the confederacy. It ain't just Disney world and Miami down here. If you could look at what I'm Looking at in my back yard you'd understand. Go fucking Gators!

People don’t understand that while the confederacy was intent on preserving slavery, the typical southerner/soldiers were impoverished farmers who didn’t own slaves. The coming men were mainly concerned with the fact that the north was coming in to invade- and sometimes that included them burning your crops, home and community. There were crimes and rapes that would happen on both sides when invading. Let southerners revere their loved ones and positive aspects of their history- while also understanding that their reliance on slavery was evil and did their souls and economy more harm than good. This nation was built by rebels!

I hate that they stopped playing Dixie

Honestly, i HATE racism. But what i hate even more than racism, is when people get their rights taken away. Its called FREEDOM OF SPEECH. Dont blame the people who said "the south will rise again" for the removal of the song. Its the people who actually had the authority to remove the songs fault. They didnt respect freedom of speech, so they decided to not let the band play the song. If you wanna get mad at anyone, blame the person who actually took it away, not the fans

What will they take next from us ?
