Martina McBride at the White House honoring Stevie Wonder

[zaodizao]

Sorry but no one sings Stevie like Stevie himself, nice performance but very far from the master's blaster !

[jalonwatts24]

amazing, just pure amazing! she is the QUEEN!

[hawkrider88]

Whew....just whew.

[ludious73]

Martina is ALWAYS on point in performances, but this song really didn't show off her range. That lady can SING! Perfect performance!

[jpaparozzi]

This is my lifelong favorite song. While Stevie's version is perfection, Martina's version is beautiful because her voice is like her...a national treasure. But no one will ever sing this song like Stevie does.

[Deann17]

I love Martina. Her voice is incredible and she has the most beautiful eyes ever!

[xxcountrygirl23xx]

Wow Martina just blows me away. She is such an amazing singer. and she looks fab here! :)

[victorcoral]

just like everything Martina ever does, that was an amazing performance of a gorgeous song. What an incredible combination of 2 of the greatest talents the world has ever seen (the singer and the songwriter)

[gop4usa12]

How can this be? Martina has built her career from fans who love God and America. By performing for Obama, she may as well have told her fans to go fuck themselves. I will never buy another Martina cd again. I expect this from pop stars, but not country singers.

[72ChallengerOwner]

Go fuck yourself!

[gop4usa12]

Do you realize how stupid that is coming from a man who claims to own a '72 Challenger? If you love that car, you should be voting republican. The very DNC you support hates your car and thinks you're causing global warming. But you're probably a union member and will drink the cool-aid that any democrat gives you.

[Bentland]

..que mulé mais aguada, chata...Depois de ouvir a Esperanza Spalding num sobrou prá ninguém..

[voodooman123]

Sorry but Martina messed this up. Its hard doing stevie.

[mewc402]

Yeah she messed it up so bad that you can see Stevie is the first to start clapping, smiling and showing his appreciation and following the performance he was so impressed he offered to write her a song . . . that is how bad she messed it up. . .

[voodooman123]

Stevie's very humble and nice when people do his covers, anyone who knows shit about Stevie knows this so him praising her and offering to do a song for her don't=good performance. She sounds HORRIBLE hear compared to his live renditions. Of course you not giving any support in terms of her vocals (outside siting Stevie's comments) shows you don't have a good arguement anyway.

[roxas139]

Wrong key for her, too low... but I love Martina so much and she can sing anything. Michael Buble's version is the best..

[mewc402]

I don't think so . . . Michael's great but she own's this version. It is unfortunate that country music has clouded people's perception of how great of a vocalist she really is. She could outsing any artist of the last 20 years handsdown.

[BrookeAnn1013]

freakin' amen to that! very well said - I couldn't agree more - she is sooo under estimated and appreciated.

[joshrexrode08]

i felt she deserved a standing ovation for this is was a fantastic performance

[kapchi]

i see the guitar guy is feeling the music...1:01-1:12.

the Obamas are such a cute together. and the hand holding at the end.. OH!!

[MartinaMFAN]

-Victoria :)

[MartinaMFAN]

I LOVE YOU MARTINA!! visit my channel. come to mississippi on tour.

[jbunnij]

that was great she did a good job the obamas must really love this song they we holding hands really tight i think i know what they did later that night lol lol

[kemptheleo]

this song was perform at their wedding

[Sam7svu]

She did Stevie proud.

Martina: "...THERE was STEVIE. Someone introduced us and he was so nice! He said, "I want to write a song for you.". Can you believe that????!!!! I said, "that would be amazing"..."

[pedrof830]

I think it was over-sung for such a small, intimate, room

[mewc402]

I completely disagree . . . it was sung perfectly especially if you look at her phrasing, the tonal quality, the vocal range, the ability to let loose and bring it back in at the end - absolutely incredible. She stole the show - next to Stevie of course!

[BUDDYSNORES]

That is an incredibly hard song to sing. She did amazing! I am very impressed.

[countrymusclequeen]

Great job! From country to jazzy soul! She can do anything!!!!!!!!!!

[HowIFeel07]

Martina sounds so good on this, and she looks really pretty too. Thanks for posting!

[Daysfreak57332]

B-E-A-Utiful :)

[DaDailyBread]

It's "B + U + T + ful" ... lol!

[mewc402]

Thank you for posting this!  Outstanding performance - especially the way she shows her range at the end. She did Stevie proud and what an honor for her!

[DaDailyBread]

Don't mention it ... my pleasure!

[Sam7svu]

Stunning in her performance and appearance! Phenomenal.

[mariia2711]

INCREIBLE

[BrookeAnn1013]

Amazing.... : )

I love the dress. She looks incredibly sexy while still pulling off class.

Amazing..... : )

[Cos8712]

The performance was good but that dress was a little too short to be standing in front of the president. Just my opinion.

[DaDailyBread]

Ya know, I had the same thought as you ... personally I think it was "borderline" short in length, but since she is such a classy lady, I give her the blessing since she exudes 110% class and professionalism!

[BrookeAnn1013]

lol... It is shorter than her usual taste but I still think she pulled it off well... My mom made the same comment as you!
