Goodbye Earl – The Dixie Chicks
as an aside, I know they removed the word “Dixie” from their name back in 2020, but when an artist or band takes a different name (like Cat Stevens, who became Yusuf Islam for a while, or John Cougar, who added his actual last name of Mellancamp, then finally dropped ‘Cougar’ altogether), how does this affect what one calls the artist when referring to songs previously released under the ''old" name?
