- Martina McBride performs "Independence Day" live at Farm Aid 2001: Concert for America in Noblesville, Indiana on September 29, 2001. Get this concert on DVD at: FarmAid.org/200...
Held just 18 days after the September 11 attacks, the sold-out Farm Aid: Concert for America honored family farmers as a resource for the nation-strong farmers for a strong America.
Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp founded Farm Aid in 1985 and serve on the board of directors. The three agreed that family farmers were in dire need of assistance and decided to plan a concert for America.
Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's Board of Directors in 2001 to help further Farm Aid's mission of keeping family farmers on their land.

This woman why I started listening to country. I heard her back in 2000 when I was 12 years old and fell in love with her voice! And I’m a black girl from the hood, but didn’t care! I still and will always love her.
Good for you Ashley. We are free to be who we are.
I've been listing to music 50 s 60s 70 and some of the the magnificent vocals came from that Era but along comes Martina Mcbride with her powerful dynamic voice and blows just about all of them away. And the writer of independent day penned equaly as powerful a song. independence day for mankind was not 4th of july (however great) but when the stone was rolled away from Christ's tomb everyone seen he had risen now that is independence day
Country music always has a way of connecting to people.
@@Eric-W28 yes absolutely!!
@@ashlovee7712 I'd love to add you on Instagram.
This lady puts everything she has into her song. God what a set of pipes!!!
For such a small lady, she can sure belt it out!
Happy 2024! This girl's voice is amazing
I am 69 years old, and have listened to alot of music. She has the the most pure, clear vocals I have EVER heard, beautifully displayed in this timeless, important song. She is a genuine gift to music.....and us. Thank you Ms. McBride.

I’m here in June 2024!
I’m here on Independence Day on July 4, 2024🇺🇸🎆🎇💥🎶❤️
@@JohnDgr81 It’s August 2024 and I’m here.
Rarely ever mentioned, the sound engineer, the recording for this live performance is top notch, obviously, Martina goes without saying!!
She sang this 18 days after 9/11 that's pretty incredible
This song makes me think about when I was a kid in 2001. The day after 9/11 a bridge contractor near me put an American flag on the crane. We were driving by and we saw all the guys with their hard hats in their hands while the crane was going up with the flag on the top.
Amazing powerful voice !! And goodness . . . Those eyes !!!
X ray eyes
AMEN TO THE EYES! Damn
Martina is one of the greatest singers ever, any genre. Here you can hear her at her best. Perfect, just perfect. And powerful.
I whole heartedly agree she is awesome I’ve always thought her the best
Me Martina McBride my TINA I call her is my crush!!!; I absolutely love and adore her so much 💗💗💋💗 ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
Has anybody commented on her looks yet? If not allow me to be the first. She is gorgeous. I cannot believe no one has mentioned one comment about how good-looking she is or about her eyes.
Holy Crap! In awe... A country artist with heart and not fluff.
nothing compares to hearing this live it gives me chills
she is awesome and amazing
Broadway Swiftie yes yes yes I agree. Even hearing the cords to the song everyone knows what song it is and is up on there feet cheering and clapping and singing.
Me too
Put Martina together with Ann Wilson of Heart.....OMG
Oh my God I’d love to see that.
After leaving an abusive relationship with a Narcissists and I was with him for 13 years I got tired of the choking, the hitting the gaslighting and left him this year in January. I'm so happy but I still carry emotional scars with me
Martina, you are an absolutely gorgeous lady with beautiful eyes, beautiful voice & beautiful smile. Just
beautiful in every way. No one compares to you. Martina, you’re a doll with the voice of an angel. You are the greatest female singer ever.
I went to her concert and was the absolute best performance I have ever seen. That little lady can sing!
Lucky You!! I wish that she'd come to Australia, specifically Sydney, so that I could go to her concert, too!
July 1, 2021
Chills!!!!
Let the guilty pay
Amen
Back when country was country!
Wow, what an amazing voice. Martina strikes the right cords again and again.
Love the attitude her stage presence projects...she owns that stage and knows it.
A Hispanic guy here who loves this song and her voice....geezz!❤
@@JoeySanchezMusicLife my wife and I saw her open for George Strait about 10 years ago. Her voice was just as amazing.
Martina ...this is America as I remember it....what happened to America...let's unite as we are stronger together when we are united.... Happy Independence Day....James.... Canada
That's a beautiful woman. Perfect performance.
Martina makes the hair on my arms stand up. Wow what a powerful voice.
This is still the greatest version of the song Independence Day by you. Love that soprano!
Belt it out Martina! What an AMERICAN star!! Love her!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
GOD BLESS AMERICA WHOOO!!!!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽💪🏼💪🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 love this country and love all my brothers and sisters
Such an AWESOME voice in such a small frame. She just puts in out there LONG, STRONG, and LOUD. Just Beautiful and so Beautiful.
Such a powerful song! Martina gets all the credit but surely Gretchen Peters deserves a lot too for writing it.
Always reminds me of an infamous case here in Nova Scotia of an abused woman who killed her husband. An RCMP officer reportedly said something like " she saved us the trouble."
Life with Billy.
@@spiderman0863 Yep. That's it!
I’m from Nova Scotia as well. My father was emotionally abusive . Sometimes physical. Oddly enough he had a copy of Life With Billy on his nightstand. This song hits home. I remember watching the movie on CBC as a kid. We had 3 channels. Treat your kids well people. You only get one shot at it.
Now THAT is beautiful vocal performance.
Prettiest woman in country music, has been for 30 years
Her voice is beautiful!
I saw a show on PBS with Martina and Pat Benatar. They could be sisters. They could partner up and be spectacular.
Martina is excellent. Live. One of the best I've seen.
Thank You Jesus. Thank You for Redemption and Recovery in my life. Truly my Independence Day
Love this song beautiful God bless America and God bless Martina McBride ❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Happy Independence Day! If you’re a victim of domestic abuse, shed those chains, get your head together and seek professional help!
I think she had the best voice at this time.
Somebody needs to tell Taylor Swift that's how you sing that's what a professional sounds like that's class at its finest doesn't need Million Dollar close and all the makeup in the world to look good and sound good just a pair of jeans and a shirt get the girl a microphone and just sit down and watch How it's done !!!
LOVE when she threw the mic stand. Hell Yeah! Fierce!
Good thing know one was standing there..
If the energy in her voice could be converted to electricity Hoover dam could be eliminated !!! Special !!
Not only a beautiful lady , with a great voice but this is her best.
She has one of the best voices ever ever!!!!!! and Shania of course
this is such a great song, one of the best ever written
Nothing to do with government, it has to do with freedom of domestic violence and today is my 4th anniversary of Freedom from fleeing my ex.
XD lol that was funny
What's funny about abusing women and us gaining our independence? Listen to the words.
Domestic violence is hilarious.
That's great
+Amy Thomas are you serious I have seen it first hand and stopped it
She has some pipes (understatement of the year).
The Verbally Abusive Clown I think she is the best female country singer from that time..
Awesome version of it, this song never gets old.Beautiful lady and i mean "LADY",love her eyes.
I remember watching this as a teenager, I was blown away. I still think about it from time to time and have to watch it again.
Me too. Lined up for diesel with my Dad when I first heard this song. I'm 46 and get chills and soggy eyes every time. 🌪
Such an amazing voice in small package and she sings the TRUTH!
You better sing, Martina!!! Yeess!!! I remember watching this live too! Her voice still gives me chills!!🥰
God and Country, Praise the Lord, this day.
That was AWESOME! Makes my day - going to watch this video everyday!
She’s my favorite Country singer. God gave her the most beautiful voice ever. Her voice goes deep into my soul 🕊♥️🌹💙 Thank you for sharing this beautiful video and God Bless 🙏🏽🌹
She had the looks and the voice which is a torch that Carrie Underwood holds now.
What a powerful and beautiful voice!
Sublime. And she capped the CMA ladies legends with this last night. ROLL THE STONE AWAY, LET THE GUILTY PAY, IT'S INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!
Martina, thanks so much for all the super music and great singing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep up all the excellent work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love when she sang this song with Pat and Neil. A masterpiece.
She is amazing. Her voice puts me in my place. In a real good way. I’m blessed with the girl I got, but she don’t sing like that.
Happy 4th, 2022 y'all out in small town Kansas. Your girl does you proud.🇺🇸
And it was LIVE ladies an gentlemen! Martin is such a great and awesome singer!!! Love her eyes and voice!
My favorite Country Artist. She is the best!
So interesting how some people view this as a song of patriotism when it's so much deeper than that.
You are right, but this was 2 weeks after 9/11 and everything (rightfully) was patriotic then. Kind of wish it still was.
It's like Springsteen's Born In The USA a patriotic sounding title but look deeper into the lyrics and properly listen to it there is a completely different meaning
I’m back for more , Lordy I love these recordings of her giving it her best WOW
Let Freedom Ring America! We did it. We took down the dark empire last night who's main goal was to destroy American Freedom and Independence. 1776 is here and it is strong. God Bless this Country! The Greatest Country in the World!
What a great song and great way of singing it on stage. ❤
Most beautiful woman in the world....
+Jay Saukkonen Yes she is!I love Martina!
Raquel Welch or Reba Macintire
Great voice.Love you.Love the USA!
Been in love with Martina for YEARS!!!! She's my favorite 😉
That has to be one of her best perfomances ever!
Let the guilty pay, it's Independence Day, justice shall be served, great song great Lady...........
Martina vocally reminds me of a female version of singer Lou Gramm, a huge compliment.
What this lady does for humanity is second to none, she an inspiration to all...what an amazing lady, luv ya to bits Martina
Love your music 🎵
And I have been
Reading all about
You and your Family
You are a beautiful
Person inside and
Out. 💖💙💝
This was a crazy time to be alive, right after 9/11 the entire nation came together it was very empowering. This was less than 2 weeks after the attack. It was wild, everyone was pissed and extremely patriotic
This isn't a patriotic song. It's a song about domestic violence survival
I love Martina, I love Independence day and I LOVE this version!
দুর্বলকে শক্তিশালী হতে দিন..👍💪 👍🎸😍
Lyrics:
Well, she seemed all right by dawn's early light
Though she looked a little worried and weak
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again
But Daddy left the proof on her cheek
And I was only eight years old that summer
And I always seemed to be in the way
So, I took myself down to the fair in town
On Independence Day
Well, word gets around in a small, small town
They said he was a dangerous man
But Mama was proud and she stood her ground
She knew she was on the losin' end
Some folks whispered, some folks talked
But everybody looked the other way
When time ran out there was no one about
On Independence Day
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today, is a day of reckoning
Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away, let the guilty pay, it's Independence Day
Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July
By the time that the firemen come
They just put out the flames and took down some names
And sent me to the county home
Now, I ain't sayin' it's right or it's wrong
But maybe it's the only way
Talk about your revolution
It's Independence Day
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today, is a day of reckoning
Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away, let the guilty pay, it's Independence Day
Roll the stone away
It's Independence Day.....
Best performance ever
*I can't love this video or this woman enough!
Martina McBride is one of my favorites! Found this song a while back. God Bless AMERICA!! I know it is not your Will to keep America. I think I know why but there is nothing I can do about it!
Incredible vocalist.
2024...waitng for Martina to accept my MySpace invitation.
Taylor who?
What a little show off hey....lol..jk. Can this little girl sing or what? Quite amazing. I loved her the first time I saw her. She's a good Momma & a good person too.
What a set of pipes
Brings me to tears
It takes something pretty major to get my eyes watering, I didn't even cry at my own dads funeral but 3 get me started 1 by Reba the other 2 by Martina, Independence Day and Concrete Angel
no- one tops Martina, no- one.
I love you Martina! Thank you for your service!
Thanks beautiful, I Love my country and fought for her, I wish the youth of today would
I love her & Willie !! Thanks to Willie Nelson & Friends for farm Aid & all their help to our farmers & their familys, For keeping our Heart land alive & giving our farmers hope & love to keep the land going for generations!! We
She's probably the best pure vocalist to ever live...
I love this song and Martina is a phenomenal singer, but that is an absolutely absurd statement.
@@NH-pi5dw There's no breakage in her voice... Like EVER and she can clearly hit any note as she has unlimited range.
@@emptyleadjacket If you've heard Aretha Franklin sing, you know Martina McBride does not have unlimited range.
It's not even close. Same with Whitney Houston. Not even getting into guys.
Even if you limit it to just country music, Patsy Cline and Dolly Parton are easily superior singers.
Again, Martina is a phenomenal singer. But there are countless phenomenal singers.
To say she's the greatest vocalist to ever live IS absurd. And I think you know it.
@@NH-pi5dw Ok you prob got me there On Aretha Franklin. But Patsy Cline doesn't nearly have as smooth a voice as Martina. And neither does Dolly. They're both very nasally. They both sound like rednecks whining. They were one truck ponies and they're range isn't even in the same category as Martina. They sounded good yes but they didn't have RANGE.
@@NH-pi5dw Dolly Parton and Martina both have around 30 Best Female Vocalist nominations but Martina was active from 1993-2019 and Dolly Parton was active from 1975-2019. And both had sparing performances in the later years.. So Dolly has a twenty year headstart and Martina still has the same number of best female Vocalist noms. Also Martina has 4 best female Vocalist wins at the CMAs and Dolly has 2.. Martina has 14 Grammy wins and Dolly has 11.
A breakthru song in country and music history. This is the magic that happens when a great singer meets a. Great song
so beautiful love her singing
Tony Vann, Kid Rock said it all, This lady has it all. What a voice. I wasn't into Country music. I'm English. Martina has brought Country to the forefront. With her , The Band Perry and Tim McGraw. Thanks Martina, love you
The Band Perry are also great. Country really rocks for me, love it. I am a Gloria Estefan, fan have been for years. But, Martina's voice is awesome, so powerful and so good looking. Yvonne my wife is a Kid Rock fan, not bad for a pensioner. Byronof calgary are you from or do you live in Calgary. We where going to emigrate to Lethbridge, Alberta.
Everyone looked the other way. I was adopted. Thank God.
Why why why did they hide the original video!!!! Needs to be found!
I love to hear you sing. You are awesome! ❤❤❤🎉
What a doll and a great voice.
