Martina has one of the best voices ever in country music!
Best voices in any genre. I'd put martina and Pat benetar up against any singer
She was my Momma's favorite!
@@davidhendrix2418 I think she's a great singer. But have you never heard of Lara Fabian? She's next level. So much emotion goes into her songs and you feel it. I'd suggest "Je Suis Malade" (I am sick).
She and Pat did a crossroads episode together at one point. One of my favorite episodes.@davidhendrix2418
You are correct! Show your girls an example of how they should be treated! Thank you, wish more fathers did that.
You are a real man. Rare theses days
I know religion in general tends to be patriarchal, but if you teach your girls they don’t need a man to be whole, that is the best life lesson you can give them. If they grow up to be self-sufficient & independent, they won’t ever be in a position where a man can treat them like the woman in the music video. Just my opinion.
this was based a true story of a woman who was beaten every single day so she took things into her own hands. She turned herself in and was found not guilty because of temporary insanity due to abuse...
Yep. That was Francine Hughes, who burned her husband's bed with him in it after years of vicious abuse. Her story was told in the movie The Burning Bed, Francine was played by Farrah Fawcett in a stunning performance.
As a survivor of domestic violence, I relate to this song. When it first came out, it took my breath away. I still cry whoever I see this video or hear the song.
My daddy was the best man I've ever known. My sissy & I grew up surrounded by large, hard men who would have killed to protect us.
We both married men who fooled us and we were abused (I had a broken nose, fractures on my skull and cheek and miscarried two babies. I literally joined the Army to get away from my husband. It took me two whole years to get divorced from him ( 4 years married in total).
My second husband was a soldier and we've been together almost 40 years and he would never ever lay a hand on me. My sister took longer to divorce her husband but she has now been single for almost 35 years and she has never had another relationship with a man.
My sister and I literally never knew that a man would treat us the way they did since my father or uncles and all of our calabash uncles would never have lifted a hand to a woman.
We never told our father because he would have been thrown in prison for murder of two men.
I'm glad you found the way out and healed enough to risk loving someone again.
I'm always confused about how I should feel during this song. I end up feeling empty and sad. Victory at what cost? Her life seems to high a price. I don't have a daughter, but if I did her life would be to high of a cost, rather mine.
I'm a survivor of DV also I cry when I hear it but I found my Independence Day ❤I'm glad you did to God bless you 🙏
@@lauriemoore2592 so glad you were able to break free! ❤️
I am so glad you are a citizen! I so appreciate your sensitivity, your compassion and passion for your wife, your children and for your fellow man. You, Sir, are a grand addition to our citizenry. Your beautiful wife got herself quite a man. I enjoy your reactions so very much!!!
As someone born to this country one of the most touching experiences of my life was going to the Federal Courthouse and watching a naturalization ceremony. Seeing the excitement, joy and passion of our newest citizens (who had to jump through considerable hoops and work for it) was inspirational and emotional. I encourage everyone to witness it at least once.
Martina McBride in concert is amazing. Sometimes when artists are live you can't hear them well over the bands, but Martina's vocals are so strong you can hear her over the band. I heard her in Manhattan Kansas at a Country Stampede and it was amazing.
I agree. I saw her in Abilene, TX, in 1996. Great show.
I've seen her in concert six times, and she never fails to amaze me with her vocal talent and beautiful spirit!
I saw her and Alan Jackson in Fresno, CA in the early 2000’s I think. Amazing concert!❤
Great reaction! This is considered Martina's signature song! It's hard to believe it is 30 years old! It peaked at #12 on the Country charts because radio stations didn't want to play a song about domestic violence. But it won CMA Video of the Year in 1994 and Song of the Year in 1995! Rolling Stone ranked it at #45 on the 100 Greatest County Songs of All Time in 2024.
Martina is such a tremendous belter. Her live performance of "Where Would You Be" from the CMT Flameworthy Awards is a great example.
I lived this story but it had a happier ending, my mom left with us five children before a tragedy could happen. There is always hope and a way to survive. Don't be afraid to seek help to break free. It has made me a survivor in life.
"Roll the stone away...", aka Christ's empty tomb. A combo theme of resurrection/revolution.
also...."Let the weak be strong" maybe from 2 Cor. 12:10 ...."for when I am weak, then I am strong"
This is one of my all time favorite songs. Her voice is beautiful and so powerful.
Not a celebration of the Independence for the United States BUT a Declaration of Independence for a woman and her child! Thank you for your reaction kind sir! #IWASABUSEDALSO #NOWIAMFREE
Martina sings so many heavy songs, yet they’re all beautiful. Gods will, Concrete Angel, I’m Gonna Love You Through It, Anyway, Wild Angels, there are so many good ones. And no one sings like that.
Concrete Angel kills me
She is Awesome & her voice is amazing. She sings from the heart & standing up against child abuse & spousal abuse. Let Freedom Ring, Roll The Stone Away it’s Independents Day ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸
Woo... This song.... No matter how old it gets, never never gets old. Great reaction
I think you may have missed the fact that the mom committed murder/suicide to get herself out of the situation.
Hence the lyrics, “I’m not saying it’s right or it’s wrong, but maybe it’s the only way”.
POWERFUL. POWERFUL, lyrics.
She did this after the 911 attacks in New York. Sept. 11, 2001. A day we should never forget.
It's a wonderful song, I remember when it came out in 1993, powerful then, powerful now
There's an incredible version of this song with both Martina McBride and Pat Benatar singing it together. Definitely worth checking out!
That was an awesome concert.
It was a CMT Crossover event which is available in places on UA-cam.
Martina has sooooo many emotional powerful songs
While filming the video, the white shirt Martina wore was actually singed by the fire. Fantastic video.
Her voice and songs give me chills every time
Her voice is perfection! She has such a clear, powerful voice. She has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen! This is a poweful song, and she is so good at storytelling. It is sad that so much of this goes on in our world, and sadly, the children are the forgotten victims of domestic violence between partners. Thanks for the reaction!
Martina had one chance to do the “fire” scene. The back of her shirt was covered in burn holes but she refused to stop.
Martina's really into ballads. She loves to belt them out. Most of her songs have a supportive message behind them.
This song has always made me cry.
Martina can SING, SING!!!
I love your raw emotions on this! You have a beautiful heart.
I'm in tears! I never experienced this with my parents or in my marriage but my heart breaks for those that do.
This song came out when I was 4. I remember watching it, not completely understanding it but empathizing with the little girl. One of my first memories of ever being completely sad.
I had read there was a woman who did this around the time Martina wrote this song. I can't remember her name now. As a dv survivor (not long before this came out) this song is really powerful for me. I get chills. I cry sometimes.
I have seen many videos that ask what was the best lesson your father ever taught you. In the past I haven't had an answer. My father was an alcoholic and definitely would not have won dad of the year. However ican sat he taught me to never be a doormat or punching bag for anyone and it is lesson that I definitely took to heart. I have never had a hard time standing up for myself.
Still think you should hear Gods Will by Martina. It is such a great one as well
Also concrete angel
I know you have listened to Pat Benatar before, Her and Martina McBride did a country cross roads show and Pat sang this song. You wont believe the power Pat brings. You should check that out for sure . Keep listening to great music !
God bless you and your family! Congratulations👏 an welcome🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Heartbreaking but great song ❤
This song breaks my old granny butt everytime; cuz that momma did what she had to do to keep her baby safe😢❤
Yep. Freedom and independence has more than one examples. And none of them are without sacrifice.
So glad you joined us
She was burned pretty badly while singing in front of the fire but kept on to get the shot. This video is powerful.
This song has been a Heartbreakers for many women who have survived DV...me included. I can't tell you how many times I have broken down listening to this song. You've also gotta react to "Broken wing" by Marina Mcbride. It's also amazing! And it's kind of along this same lines.
If you're looking to react to more Martina McBride, you'd love her live performance of "Where Would You Be" - the vid you would be looking for is from the 2002 CMT Flameworthy Awards and her performance is magnificent..... you would love this song... but you have to see it live!
Great reaction. Absolutely, raise your girls to know and expect how they should be treated. In the video, the little girl wasn't taking inspiration from the parade. Look at the expression on her face. The clowns were pretending to hit each other. It upset her so she ran home only to find the house burned down and herself an orphan.
My dad wasn't the reason I ended up with an alcoholic, my siblings were. My dad's the reason I knew I deserved better. You're going to be a great influence on your daughters.
Her voice just pierces me no matter what she sings!!
Martina is amazing! I remember when this came out, radio stations wouldn't play it for a while due to the DV aspect.
A Martina Classic!! 💗
This is one of my favorite songs, no matter the genre. I’m a die hard rocker, but this song hits me in the gut, still all these years later. Those bells in the chorus just seal the deal.
I told my two sons that no relationship is perfect. There will be good days and there’ll be bad days. It always gets better…BUT leave when there are way more bad days than good. You deserve better.
I don't celebrate these holiday things but as DV survivor I like, celebrate and support the meaning of an individual Independence Day. I lean towards healing and recovery rather then a death and destruction. It can be done; I live it. xo love me some martina, her voice packs power, effortlessly.
By beautiful cousin always sings about the tough issues that bring attention to those who can’t speak for themselves! Our family is so proud of the God fearing woman she is! ❤
Seb ❤
Welcome and congrats for your citizenship.
Love your content, please if you haven’t react too
The Star Bangled Banner story video. It’s a must see even for the many Americans brought up in this country singing this song. It’s a must see God bless you and your family❤🙏
You need to have your wife join you and check out her song "In My Daughter's Eyes". I can't hear it without thinking of my girls, and hope I am that for them. There are so many "father/daughter" songs, but this one is an amazing "mother/daughter" song. I think you will both love it! Martina McBride is just such an amazing artist!!!!
I left with 7 kids in tow before the worst could happen to us. Bless you all out there it can be done and your life after can be happy and full!
That song always makes me cry
Broken Wings by her is perfection!
❤Anyway is another beautiful song by her. You definitely won’t be disappointed!!❤🌈☀️🌈☀️🌈☀️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great reaction! Glad you got your citizenship. Martina is one of my favorites. Domestic violence/abuse is such a terrible situation to be in... be it for a man, or a woman. My advice... just get out of the situation. There is NO reason to stay in it... ever... NONE.
I remember when this song came out, and all of these years later her voice still makes my eyes wet.
Great reaction. Awesome song. ❤
I ❤ Martina! I’ve seen her live a few times and she is super talented.
I saw her in concert when she was pregnant with her first child. (9 months pregnant) She still belted out that song!
Her voice booming across the auditorium. Amazing
♥️♥️♥️one of her many many best
Martina is such a powerful singer singing powerful songs
Fantastic singer
We… we always want better for our children than we had, my words to this, being a long term fan of Martina & other very strong women artist of “our generation” I’d say this, it is way too common these days ESPECIALLY, we need to show our children how they should be treated.
Every time I hear this song I get tears in my eyes. I am not a person who cries but this song hits so close to home. I grew up with a military dad who was always deployed, and a step dad who was extremely physically and psychologically abusive.
I intern grew up to enter a relationship with someone who literally almost ended my life. Now I am constantly trying to show my children how relationships are supposed to be, in hopes that this cycle of abuse ends with me. It is very important for you to show your girls how women are supposed to be treated. Not just with your relationship with them but also with how you treat their mother. I can't emphasize that enough for the men and women in my life, show your kids how relationships are supposed to be so they don't grow up to see toxicity, abuse and neglect as normal.
What a lot of people don't realize (or forget) is: everyone has their breaking point. If no one is going to listen or help you then sometimes you get to the point where you can't take it anymore and decide that you're the only one you can depend on to change things or you just decide like the mother does to take the person out (unfortunately for her daughter herself as well).
I thankfully never got to my breaking point when I was relentlessly bullied for several years. No one would listen they just told me to suck it up, ignore the bullies, and remember that they were just doing it for attention or to make themselves feel better. Before I reached my breaking point I was moved to a new school for high school and few of my bullies were there and those that were couldn't get away with it due to the smaller size of the school. That being said I completely understand the desperation (though being bullied and being a victim of domestic violence is not the same thing, it's just as isolating, and gives you the need for escape)
Love this one.💖You should do "This Ones For The Girls"!
Because of the chorus, this song often gets thought of as a patriotic song, but I think this song carries much more of a story. Great reaction.
Wonderful reaction! Yes girls tend to marry a man like their father. I certainly did, not that I was looking for one, but I grew up in that abusive environment so there were no warning bells that told me something was wrong, I managed to get away and my late husband was a loving gentle giant and showed my daughters how a man SHOULD treat his wife.
You are a good man Sebs, you do a great job with these reactions. You seem like a great father and husband, you are a great example for American's!
Tidbit: Apparently, when Martina was singing this song in front of the burning house, she knew that there was only one chance to have the proper shot of it all, so she sang that song, while apparently her back got scorched (she either was standing too close or the fire was too hot). She continued to sing and its only after it was done that she told them about feeling burnt. They checked her out and yes, she had been scorched. (Don't know what degree burn she had but regardless, it must have hurt).
My dad got too angry on Mother’s Day 2012 and the evidence on my older sister got him placed under house arrest for 4-5 months, court mandated anger management classes and counseling. My older sister and I were always terrified that one day the whole family would not exist. With how small my hometown is, not a lot of people were happy with him. My sisters and I always wondered why our mom stuck around. Now grown up and seeing things the way we do now, we have a better understanding. They are still together and he is still just as quick to anger. Martina got me through the rough nights that’s for sure.
Broken Wing is another phenomenal song to watch
A little known fact about this music video is that martina was standing way too close to the burning house and was getting third degree burns on her back but refused to go to the hospital until all filming was done
When Martina was filming this video. There is a part of it where she singing in front of flames. The flames were so close that they were burning the shirt she was wearing. The sparks from the flames were hitting her shirt and burning a hole in the shirt. But she’s such a pro, she just keep on singing.
One of my favorite Martina McBride songs is When God Fearin’ Women Get the Blues.
It is a fun song.
My Grandson and I talk about his precious daughter that hopefully she had a great husband the first til the last ..start to finish. This song is powerful on many levels
Martina's songs all of a message. Some are difficult subjects. Her song "God's Will" is one of my favorites. Or a fun one is "Teenage Daughters".
Martina's "Concrete Angel" . Awesome song.
Martina grew up in my county in Kansas so know all about her and yes, this world is the energy of purgatory if that answers questions out there. BUT we are moving into the Golden Age but have to take out the trash and clean things up first. Humanity is ascending out of hell but have to go through it to understand it and make sense of everything.
"Roll away the stone...Let Freedom Ring!" in Christ Jesus! 🙏❤🔥🙏🕊🙏 Persevere in JOY...
Love Martina! One of my all time favorite country singers.
For a funnier side of Martina, you gotta check out “When God Fearing Women Get The Blues”! Awesome tune!
Great song choice and reaction Sebs. Belated July 4th wishes. ☀️
This woman is SANGIN! probably top 5 all time Star Spangled Banner proformances! She could sing me the enclopedia and i would listen... just like Ashley mcbryde!
even more than fathers teaching their daughters how they should be treated, sons need to be taught that they don't need to "prove their masculinity" by treating anyone like this.
😅
This song gave me the inspiration to get out of my abusive relationship in 1994. I blasted it in the U-Haul as I was driving away.
Congrats on becoming a citizen!
You're an AMAZING MAN!!!!!
One of my traditions for the 4th is to watch "1776." It's a musical about the lead up to the signing of the Declaration. The music is phenomenal, & the story line for the most part is historically accurate.
Oh the tears! And too, love your man heart! To hear your concerns about your daughters, breaks me. But . . . I hope this helps. Our Abba Father has engraved them in the palms of His hands! Thanks for sharing again today. Happy Belated Independence Day!
Great song, love Martina
It is scary raising children. But as long as you raise them with love and respect and open conversation, you’ve set the stage for them to know that there’s always home to come to. ❤
The fact that you are scared for your daughters, you are a good man
For a great upbeat song by Martina, you should do 'This One's For The Girls'
I grew up without a father. I watched my mom and my sister be beaten bloody. They kept leaving but would date basically the same guy with a different name.
It never happened to me. For me, it felt that because I was strong, knew my worth, refused to settle, was confident that it made a difference not just in who I chose but in how they acted towards me.
My mom and sister always felt they had to have a man to be happy. I never did. I WANTED a man and to be married but I never allowed that desire to overshadow my common sense and my deal breakers.
This was just me. My experience. It’s devastating to watch family go through this and not be able to help.
Teach your girls to be confident, strong, and to know their value. They can still be feminine and strong. It’s not an either or situation. Keep showing them and their mother what love looks like.❤
I'm surprised you have not reacted to "In My Daughter's Eyes" by Martina; you will love it.
Great song great reaction.
On June 30th 2003 I got a divorce from and abusive drunk of a man and this song I play it every June 30 it's my Independence Day song and theme.
