  • WOW! Go Martina!

  • tammy wynnete would be very proud,11 years later and her music will never die, may she rest in peace xoxo

    we miss you

  • Tammy would have been proud!

  • Carrie has beautiful presence in her voice.

  • Why is audience screaming like it's a sporting event? This is one of the most somber , touching lyrics ever written. People don't know how appreciate anything without making it a mockery.

  • I love you always and forever Hal.....

  • David

  • Hers is truly one of the greatest voices of all time. Very few can compare. I can't get enough of her !

    God's gift to mankind.....

  • LIKE is a word not enough to describe this song especially Martina singing it!!!

  • hardly anyone has pipes like this woman. love u martina <3

  • Best Pipes in Nashville............Almost as good as Tammy was.

  • MY MOST FAVORITE SONG IS THIS ONE!!!IST A SONG MADE FOR ME.JUST LOVE IT!!! XX LINDSEY

  • so amazing!

    

  • I'm a big Martina fan, but on this song nobody does it better than Tammy Wynette.

    That's only my opinion of course. Thanks for the post.

  • Very true lyrics, lived with a lady for six years. We loved each other, and still do, but had to part. A year later she still calls, I'll always be there for her.

  • Love u Tammy, but u go girl Maritna!!! Everyone should hear hear this song. God Bless You sharing this.

  • Carrie's voice is great, the only difference is the material that Martina sings is sooo soo much better than the stuff that Carrie sings... I loved Carrie on American Idol, but I don't like 99% of the stuff she is recording now.

  • I have the CD this song is on and she nails every one of those old classics like nobody else has ever done. I was shocked when Rose Garden was the only radio hit she got off it. Who else would dare to cover Tammy Wynette's greatest vocal performance and not fall short in comparison?

  • hmmm..... thanks!!,....xxxxx-(hope you see!!)and i appricate youes!,hmmm.....xxxxx, (friends)

  • WOW!!!!!!!! THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY!!!

  • Hate to say it....she performs this better than "Tammy" and I love Tammy!

  • For you a Great 2 0 1 1 --> MMcB forever Happy New Year to those who are happy in life. -- Happy New Year to those who are unhappy. -- Happy New Year to all dear jaunty youth. -- Happy New Year to those who no longer has twenty years. -- Happy New Year to those who haven't more own house. -- Happy New Year to children who do not have anyone. -- Happy New Year and good luck to the whole world! -- Happy New Year to those who believe in God. -- Happy New Year to those who do not Believe. -- Fausto
  • & This is Why She will ALWAYS be the Greatest . <3 Hands Down !

  • This woman can't be beat-out by anyone!!! GREAT SINGER!!!!

  • there is a reason why carrie idolize her so much..come on..stop comparing each singer...of course martina and carrie not in the same league....that why carrie said she still has alot to learn

  • Beautiful!!! I love you Martina!!

  • this is about as good as it gets. She is absolutely the best, even better than Tammy.

  • @1OLDCOACH1 Agree. I thought no one sang this better than Tammy,until I heard Martina. What a remarkable voice. She will go down as one of the legends of country,with Patsy and Loretta.

  • One of the very best country music- any music venue voices anywhere. She has no comparsion anywhere. Greatest Lady of song anywhere or any time. Just my personal opinion but think I am not alone in this venue.

  • Simply amazing.

  • She does Tammy's song justice. I love this woman's voice! She's so easy on the eye too ;)

  • Earth Angel !!!!

  • Earth Angel !!!!

  • Earth Angel !!!

  • Jesus I love this woman !

  • Its really hard to forget someone you love just like that!!!...Pls understand me and somehow one day i will forget you...I love you hal...

  • absolutely beautiful, the song and the singer.

  • Martina McBride - Country Music's version of Barbra Strisand? Is that a fair analogy?

  • thats about as good as it gets right there

  • Martina Is The BEST!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Some performers are amazing and some transcend amazing.

    Martina McBride is one of the true wonders of the modern age.

    Voice...looks...grace...

    I do not use the word awesome very often, but Martina is absolutely awesome.

  • This was when she appeared on Canadian Idol

  • Absolutely beautiful. The Celine Dion of Country music

  • OMG. Never thought anyone could do this better than Tammy. I was wrong. Awesome.

  • All there is to be said, Stand and Deliver. This Lady can do that in no uncertain terms. One of our better entertainers in many years. God Bless you Martina and keep you safe.

  • Beautiful love Martina ..

  • Now that, ladies and gentlemen, is a voice, a real voice.

  • What a Wonderful song and singer!! Such a beautiful Woman!!

  • my husband left me im completly broke but i will make it on my own lol love this song

    

  • I did a version of this song with a girl that rates right with McBride and she's only a sophomore in high school. Yall should watch it and let me know if you agree. I'm just trying to get this girls voice heard, she's a prodigy. Her version of Til I can Make it is very good and won't be disappointing

  • To anybody who reads this - listen to the billy gilman version of this its sooooooo amazing I swear you won't be disappointed

  • Holy cow, wow

  • Holy Shit

  • Hi, my name is Conrad, I live in Augusta Maine and I have to tell you that she is so deep in my heart, Ilove all the songs that sings particulaly, when she sings with Bob Seger the song Chances that is so beartiful, I love you Martina...........

  • Martina McBride you have NOW!!!!, been Anoited, The ''Standard Bearer''  of at least, one of Tammy Wynette's songs,....''till I can make it on my own'' ....when you were singing it, here, I closed my eyes, An a tear fell.......only Tammy, has EVER caused that to happen...

  • Shivers up and down the back everytime i hear this. Martina you are a blessing.

  • She is so beautiful, like her voice. She is one of the original country singers. Like her voice will stand to be "TRUE COUNTRY", She is real. Not fake like Faith Hill. Martina didn't become plastic like a Barbie Doll. She IS, and truely will be country.

  • i love this song, really its reminded me too much ,, vicky b.

  • nothing compares to her and reba mcentire. screw taylor swift.

  • Martina started singing this song for a tribute to Tammy, not to take her place. Martina is a very good singer and would never try and make it big on someones else music.

  • Martina wasn' t trying to take Tammy' s place. She knows she never will. That' s the difference in a woman that lives and loves and the little girls that the industry is forcing down our throats. MS McBride has her on place in music history and it, s huge. Only other Lady that can stand beside this two is Jennifer Nettles. Okay, okay so can Dolly. lol But question is, who can stand up to Dolly?

  • Carrie, Taylor(espcially) and many others are not in this ladys leauge. Absoulutely amazing. To bad the industry(new country), can't and won't give her the respect she deserves. Martina is one of the true greats.

  • @MrKmb17 If you are willing to listen, I did a cover of this song with only a SIXTEEN YEAR OLD girl! If American Idol is around long enough, I believe she will make it very far in the near future. You should listen to it and tell me what you think. I'm not trying to spam, just get Briget's name out there

  • Carrie is good, no doubt about it but come on! How can you compare? Martina's voice....WOW!!

  • @dbenne27 I'd love to see Carrie put out a similar album of country classics!  Her voice is actually very similar to Martina's in range and quality; I love them both. But if I had to make a choice to see one or the other in concert, I wouldn't even hesitate: Martina all the way, baby!

  • @dbenne27 ummmm well said!! tc!!

  • Carrie who ? Who cares............

  • Love this song no matter who sing

  • brilliant

  • She certainly comes across as though she is into this song. Well done.

  • if you can sing this better . lets hear it..

  • that was nice martina , great job

  • Tammy, Martina, and Billy each give a wonderful performance and new meaning to this song for me

  • The closest thing we have to Celine Dion in Country music - this woman is outstanding. Truly in a class of her own

  • Martina is amazing, but give Carrie Underwood a listen too. Both truly amazing. :)

  • But you dont, so sit back and enjoy the music instead.

  • this is so amazing. Its beautiful

  • this is a beautiful song and a beautiful voice but nobody can do it like Tammy.

  • I agree

  • There is singing the song and then there is living and being a song.

  • no, Tammy is unique, it's not just about the voice: the feeling she irradiates is so powerful

  • Exactly!!! There will never be another like tammy, Martina does a fitting tribute to Tammy here and it's lovely to see her songs being covered.

    I hope Ritchey is proud of himself for robbing the world of her.

  • She is Pretty.

  • i NEED TO LET GO AND DEDICATE THIS SONG...THIS SONG IS THE SECOND STEP..FIRST i NEED TO LET GO...i HAVE TRIED TO LET GO BEFORE AND i COULDN'T MAKE IT ON MY OWN...

  • this reminds of my ex....I'm still using him after 4 years....lol...gut he doesn't mind...mayb it's better that we are not living together...but still come to 1 another...nice...

  • nice song!!!!

  • I bet the brothers love that

  • She makes occasional guest appearances singing backup for The Isley Brothers and Kool And The Gang

  • They wish they could open for her. No comparison different genre.

  • They dont make country singers like this anymore.

  • beautiful vocal !!!

  • Wow nice song Madam Martina .... amud a kabaru kantam....

  • The emotion and power that she puts into the song is amazing.

  • wow she sings this song with such emotion, she is such a beautiful woman.

  • mm she's getting old but she's still beautiful

  • Hope that you can be anything like her at her age

  • I was going through some of my music collection on my computer the other day & came across this song by Martina McBride -very impressive & beautiful-one of her great songs.

  • in my personal opinion the greatest vocalist ever

  • The best, as close to a perfect voice as you can get!!!! Simply beautiful....

  • SING IT Martina!! Boy she can sing that song too..l ove this song ... I agree with Silverdevane

  • I LOVE THIS  SONG

  • She is the artist to whom I feel can cover a great Tammy Wynette song the others are posers. =)

  • Love MARTINA!!!!!!!!! I am sorry, but I have to say these new little girls that think they will ever be a Martina,,, better run fast,, and RIDE!!!! Martina ROCKS,,she can sing any song you give her to sing,, and she sings Acapella with a lot of her songs,, No one will ever be another Martina!! :))

  • i have to agree this is the absolute bes tof this song.. i love this video and song.. and Martina well is so awesome.. this is the best cover of this song by anyone i believe.. and so glad i found this again tonight by accident.. as it used to be in my favs ..

  • This is the best version of this song. This girl sings with everything shes got

  • I just love the way she sings and her emotions. She is awesome..

  • And those sexy eyes...!!

  • She is truly one of the great voices in modern music.

  • god its hard to live up to a tammy song, but she does it so so well!! nothing like the orignal but great!

  • Holy shit holy shit. Brings a tear to my eye she is so awesome.

  • Martina you are one of a kind and no one ever could match that soprano voice u have. I love all of ur music. You make a old song come alive again.

    Love ur biggest fan Marlord Brown Oregon

  • Awesome God given talent in her voice, and some people are so jealous of talent, they had to disrespect others! Tis sad! But I for one love her voice, and any other musician or artist who shares their gift with us!

  • mintypepsi: you are aweful and the Lord needs to help you to get ur hearing back! Were sorry you are death and cant hear. Martina has the best voice ever, And made this song come alive again. THey dont call her the Celine Dion of Country for nothing :) Beat that whore!

  • Beautiful just Beautiful. This young lady can sing anything and make it sound even better than the original!!!

  • Just incredible, makes me remember the GREAT Tammy Wynette.

  • Wow..someone is deaf lol.

  • I agree...completely...she is flat out AMAZING!!!

  • lets hear YOU sing it better ..you are completely blind to talent

  • wow.. I was blind but now I see... its perfection.. just listen.. inspiring.. this bitch got talent!! dowg

  • yes she's what u'd call a real pretty Galway Girl

  • (Till I get used to losing you let me keep on using you.) What a line. I love the song. I think Tammy would have been proud.

  • Tammy Wynett orignially sang this song. Martina does a great job!

  • Martina's incredibly talented. I have her voice alot. And she's very beautiful. Yeah beautiful is almost an understatement for her

  • beautly, brains, talent; martina has it all, and so sexy! tiger1031

  • Simply Beautiful!

  • For Martina, beautiful is an insult.

  • i like tammys version better,but this is good too!

  • Great job! Martina love it ,love it,love it.

  • this reminds me of my friend, love it.

  • Its good to see a few young performers who still know how to sing real country music!

  • This is beautiful. I have Martina's Timeless album and EVERY song is good. I never thought of myself as one to like the country classics. But, she does such a good job with all of the songs. It's true, if you are a great singer, you can sing anything. That definitely goes for Martina. By the way, she is a powerhouse Live Concert performer. She even brings a rock edge to her concert and does a terrific version of Journey' s "Don't Stop Believing".

  • billy gilman song this song better..! :* realy ! LOVE YOU BILLY GILMAN! :* :*

  • Beautiful song, Beautiful voice, Love Matina. She is great! I really love this song a lot, this is one of the best versions since Dottie West. You go girl!!

  • Very powerful and unique voice.

  • I love Martina's vocal technique and the timber of her voice. But this song became a favourite of mine when I was a kid. It was the Kenny Rogers And Dottie West version that I grew up listening too. The Boy - girl duet and Good Ol Kenny's feel just made the song memorable. But All said and done, God Bless Martina. She's really gifted.

  • Tammy would be proud, Martina has the range and did this song very well.

  • i love this song because my dad friend sang this before she died and that was the saddest day of my life so far....... :(

  • Brilliant, powerful, voice, just wish i could get the video of Martina singing How Great Thou Art can anyone help?

  • nice song

  • fab performance...awesome voice..but bad hair...country hair....nashville hair a go go

  • after anne murray, martina is the hottest chick on this planet! she's classy, sings well and donates alot to charity...

  • hey! i used to have a billy bilman cd with him singing this song!! cool

  • I adore this song! I wasn't familar with Tammy's version till I bought "Timelss"!! I love how Martina describes recording this song in the voacl booth, she says she could feel Tammy in the booth with her, almost giving blessing!! Brilliant dedication to Martina's Idol, excuse the pun.

  • I love this song SO much!! Martina and Billy sang it amazingly!! 5 stars!!

  • i love martina a lot but I honestly think billy gilman does a better job at this song. her virsion is great too so dont get me wrong. they both rock!

  • ouchhhhh. i'm very much on this stage of my life at the moment....and know, i will get through it in due time, it just takes time....

  • dit s geweldig!!!

    mooi!!

  • Thanks...great song which at this time I can relate to sooooo much S

  • martina is the most beautiful and talented singer of all times. Don Scott

  • i can relate to this song..... thanks a lot....

  • What an honor and tribute to Tammy as Martina aings this song beautifully. She is the absolute most incredible singer of our time! She is also beautiful in and out. I hope she comes out with a live concert on video!

  • Martina just came out with a live concert cd/dvd :D

  • Tammy would be so proud of her and iknow iam

    Love jayleexxx

  • Hmm...the memories....love this song!

  • utter perfection. can't say anymore

  • Martina McBride is so Beautiful.... Her voice her music the way she puts her songs out She is truly the best singer out there and deserves to be a 4x CMA Female Vocalist. No other Singer should have anything on her because no one could match that sopranos voice I love you Martina and ur new song "Anyway" keep it up Marlord Brown

  • martina covers songs....this is true, but she does it well..and im sure the actual artists would agree

  • Martina is amazing!

  • how old are you, anyway? 10? THIS WAS TAMMY WYNETTES SONG and NO ONE will ever do it better. no one "stole" it. Others want to honor her and some do it better than others. Perhaps you like Billy's version. Try Tammy's.

  • hello i'm actualli

    16..and i didn't know it was tammy wynettes song sorri for writing about the 'stole it'part ....sorri i just prefer billy gilman's.

  • Martina McBride is a professional, beutiful, talented woman. Billy Gilman is not! He is young! He should be honored that she chose to sing one of his songs!

  • Oh...my bad this is a Tammy Wynette song...sorry!

  • When Martina sings a song, it stays sung. However, I still like Tammy's version better. You could hear the tears in Tammy's voice when she sung this.

  • Concrete Angel is such a heart wrenching song it brings me back to my life as the child in the video.... It should be used more in signs of child abuse and the outcome when everyone turns a nose ... these are children who look at elders for safety and we as adults turn..Seem wrong to you I know it would to Martina McBride think of this song next time u see a child covering a bruise children are our future and hope>>

  • Martina You Have Bootiful Eyes, x

    You Sucha Stunnerr, x

  • LOVE her.. Perfect vocal. I wish she got more recognition that she has received. SHE is the best femaile country performer. I have heard from people I know in her hometown that she is a REAL person and it really shines through. She's amazing.

  • If ANYONE has the right and ability to sing a Tammy Wynette song, IT'S MARTINA!!!
