Robbie Robertson is one of the most obnixious men in music. First of all, he gets all the money from any of the bands songs because he wrote the lyrics, secondly, he added his background vocals to the songs from this concert becasue they had turned off his mic. Also, he mixed his guitar way to loud in the mix of the movie and cut out alot of Richard Manuels vocals and notice you don't see Hudson or Manuel in this entire sing. He's a big jerk-off

I'm Canadian and don't understand why anyone would have a problem with this song.I used to be a Confederate reenactor and discovering the history at that tumultuous time in America - and then reliving it on the battlefield - was a great experience. The South suffered tremendously in that war and Southerners should be proud of their heritage, in spite of the fact that its openly bashed and its symbols and expression repressed by the insidious menace of political correctness and cultural bigotry.

Look, I'm Canadian and this song has nothing to do with Canadian history and culture. It is a song about the American civil war written from the southern perspective. I'd guess that Robertson wrote since he wrote most of thier songs. He is a talented song writer, talented enough to make you think he is a confederate soldier lamenting about the war. His nationality has nothing to do with it and he did not intend to inject Canada into the song otherwise he would have wrote the song about Red Rivr
