AUTHORSHIP ?

[edit]

I believe this song is way older ! Check out "we shall be free" by bluesman pioneer Leadbelly

It's a different song, just happens to have the same name. Happens a lot. Daropedia (talk) 16:40, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reception

[edit]

Should there be a section on how this song affected Brooks' reputation? I remember reading somewhere that some more conservative country fans were upset with what they saw as this song's embrace of gay tolerance. In addition, Washington Times columnist Samuel T. Francis was fired from the paper after making racist comments, which included sliming Brooks over "that stupid universalist song in which we all intermarry".
