Umm this version is not bad but to say Whittney didn't sing it better on the jay leno show is just plain silly. This version isn't even better then Carrie Underwoods..stop reaching that this is some sort of brilliant version
One thing I want to say, and that is to explain what repent means. Do you realize that not one word needs to be spoken in order to repent? ALOT of christians believe that repent means to say your sorry. This is NOT the truth. Repent means to STOP what your doing. Repent has nothing to do with words. If we don't truly repent then how can we be forgiven? It is a nice gesture to say your sorry but the "true" sorry happens when you stop doing the sin. I love you all in Christ. :) Blessings
This and her version of silver bells have to be the absolute BEST christmas carols ever. What an AMAZING voice!! Any other version of these two songs just sound off or wrong or downright disappointing, depending on who is singing them.
Whitney Houston's version is the worst of the worst. It sounds like shes reading the song instead of actually singing it. The pauses in her song are too often and too long which does not sound good at all, it doesn't flow as smooth as it should be and Whitney is unable to capture the correct tone for the words and melody. Martina Mcbride's version is definitely best of the best.
@jstarscomm I agree that Martina can sing Anything above and beyond anyone else- no question... But, Whitney, at her best, CAN give an awesome performance. Her voice used to be unbeatable!!! Shows us all that lifestyle can affect us!!!!
@jstarscomm couldn't agree more and Whitney is called "the voice" if she was she would have done this song beautifully.Martina is amazing keep up the great work Martina hope to see you live one day.
I think what's so brilliant about this is that she didn't do anything weird with it...like unnecessary runs and octave jumps other singers do. She kept it traditional, beautiful, and festive! Just like it's meant to be =] Best version ever recorded, along with Bing Crosby!
In over 40 years of listening to professional singers sing this song, Martina's is by far the most beautiful, most angelic I've ever heard. Her voice is truly a gift from God to her, and for us to hear. Merry Christmas, everyone.
I kept hearing this version of this song on the radio this Christmas season and it just dawned on me driving home from work the other day - "who is this singing this song". I narrowed the voice to either Martina McBride or Carrie Underwood (as the radio stations never identified the artist). I found it on YouTube. This is by far the best version ever recorded. She nailed it!
Carrie's would be tolerable if she could sing in tune. Until she is able to do that with out the assistance of special equipment -Martina's kicks her version in the ass!
This is an AMAZING version. Love her sultry voice. Chills. Karen Carpenter's version is my favorite.

It is rare for a performance to bring me to tears, but Martina's version of this song can do it.
