Martina Continues to Amaze!;
Martina McBride has done it again! Her style and impressive vocal talent shines through on this CD. This album contains a strong collection of

songs that will tug at your heartstrings and make you feel good all at the same time! The opening song "So Magical" is an upbeat, fun song that

reminds us how to find the beauty and magic in daily life. Other upbeat "fun" songs are "This One's for the Girls" and "Wearin' White" - a true fun,

country song that will make you smile (with Vince Gill's background harmonies making it all the better)! Martina's vocals soar on the powerful

ballad "How Far", "City of Love" and the incredible live version of "Over the Rainbow" that will give you chills. The incredibly touching "In My

Daughter's Eyes" (to be the second single) will bring tears to your eyes. "God's Will" is about a crippled boy who teaches us the meaning of

selflessness, love and hope (it's a little long - at almost 6 minutes with a long instrumental ending) but the lyrics will absolutely touch your heart.

Martina even mixes it up a bit by including the bluegrass/gospel-ish tune "Reluctant Daughter". I could go on about how each and every song will

touch a certain emotion. It's just an incredibly well done and uplifting album - and Martina's vocal talent is unparalleled!! The version with the

bonus track "Show Me" is only available at WalMart but it's a fantastic song and well worth a trip to WalMart to get that version. Enjoy "Martina" - it

is a must have!! ~ Amazon "A Customer"

Smooth and Creamy;
I have been listening to a wide mix of music lately, from Nickelback to Outkast, from Clay Aiken to Evanescence, from Matchbox Twenty to Thalia,

Beyonce, Train, No Doubt and Westlife.
These are all excellent performers, but the "feel-good" girl among the current "IT" entertainers is unquestionably Martina Mcbride. The album

contains a collection of cotton candy sweet, touching and moving material, which can chase the darkest gloom from a cloudy day.

She may be guilty on a few songs of putting in so much effort that she almost screams ( reminiscent of Heart songs like "Alone" ), but the majority

showcase her smooth creamy delivery to the max.

A refreshing break from the frenetic and dark side of music. ~ Amanda Richards

Simply The Best;
Martina McBride is back and better than ever. The greatest singer in country music---scratch that, the greatest singer in all of popular music---has

delivered once again.
"Martina" is a fantastic collection of songs sung with beauty and power and grace. It is almost impossible for me to even begin to think of

choosing a favorite song, because I love each and every one of this cd's twelve tracks, but "So Magical" is just a perfect upbeat summer song, "In

My Daughter's Eyes" is an incredibly moving ballad and "God's Will" sends shivers through me. Not to mention "This One's For The Girls" and

"She's A Butterfly" which make me feel so happy and so sexy at the same time! And to be honest, I never cared for the song "Over The Rainbow"

all that much until I heard Martina sing it. Now it's one of my favorites!

Martina's performance is breathtaking on every track as she brings true emotion, gravity, dignity and decency to the ballads and a fun, joyous and

sexy spirit to the more uptempo songs. Each and every song features a powerful vocal performance. Martina always gives us her all and that is

always more than anyone else can give us.

I fully expect this cd to be nominated for multiple awards and win all of them! If you haven't bought it yet, do so quickly! Go ahead, treat yourself,

you deserve it! ~ Sara Gunn
