Martina McBride: Live In Concert Hits Stores April 29
Martina McBride, one of the top female touring acts in the country, is bringing her powerful live concert to fans across the nation with the April 29 RCA Records Nashville release of Martina McBride: Live In Concert. The package features an eight-song live CD from one of country music's most dynamic and astounding voices with a bonus live concert DVD.
McBride's angelic voice and poignant delivery have made her a Grammy winner, four-time CMA Female Vocalist of the Year, three-time ACM Top Female Vocalist and one of Pollstar's Top Female Touring Acts across all genres. For the first time, fans can own live tracks of eight of her biggest hits including "Happy Girl," "Concrete Angel," This One's For The Girls," "Anyway" and "Independence Day," among others.
The bonus live DVD was recorded last September at Moline, Illinois' I Wireless Center, for PBS' Great Performances, which is airing across the country this month. Before a sold-out crowd, Martina delivered back-to-back spellbinding performances including "Where Would You Be," "A Broken Wing" and "Wild Angels," among others. Also featured in the package are the unforgettable classics "(I Never Promised You A) Rose Garden" and "Help Me Make It Through The Night," from her Timeless album, as well as fan favorites from the road including "Over the Rainbow," Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" and Pat Benatar's "Hit Me With Your Best Shot."
"Her credentials as a highly entertaining performer are impeccable."
-Richmond Times
"McBride owned the stage from her first note..."
-Norfolk Daily News
"From one tune to another, McBride morphed from a honky-tonk queen, to a tough rocker to a pure-pop diva... When she leaps into her upper register and milks a note for every possible ounce of emotion - it's guaranteed to get a crowd on its feet."
-Newsday****
CD Track Listing:
1. Happy Girl
2. Anyway
3. Concrete Angel
4. From The Ashes
5. Whatever You Say
6. This One's For The Girls
7. Independence Day
8. Hit Me With Your Best Shot
BONUS DVD Track Listing:
1. Anyway
2. When God-Fearin' Women Get The Blues
3. Wild Angels
4. My Baby Loves Me
5. Tryin' To Find A Reason
6. How I Feel
7. Happy Girl
8. (I Never Promised You A) Rose Garden
9. You Ain't Woman Enough
10. Help Me Make It Through The Night
11. Where Would You Be
12. Concrete Angel
13. For These Times
14. Love's The Only House
15. Blessed
16. This One's For The Girls
17. A Broken Wing
18. Independence Day
19. Don't Stop Believin'
20. Hit Me With Your Best Shot
21. Over The Rainbow
Sadly, one of my favourite songs by Martina is not on either the live CD or DVD, the bouncy and irresistably catchy I Love You which is featured on Martina's Emotion album (which I do have as a studio album, just not live). Still, I'm thinking of adding them to my collection anyway, especially the DVD. I have both of Martina's music video DVDs, but I've never been fortunate enough to see her perform live, so this live DVD should be a treat.
Now I will post the lyrics to I Love You simply because I LOVE this song.
I Love You - Martina McBride (*From Emotion)
"The sun is shining everyday
Clouds never get in the way for you and me
I've known you just a week or two
But baby I'm so into you
Can hardly breathe
And I'm in so totally
Wrapped up emotionally
Attracted so physically
Acting so recklessly
I need you so desperately
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you, I love you
I never knew that I could feel like this
Can hardly wait till our next kiss
You're so cool
If I'm dreaming please don't wake me up
Cause baby I can't get enough
Of what you do
And I'm in so electrically
Charged up kinetically
Acting erratically
Need you fanatically
You get to me magically
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you
I can't believe that this is real
The way I feel
Baby I'm gone head over heels
And I'm in so totally
Wrapped up emotionally
Attracted so physically
Acting so recklessly
I need you so desperately
Sure as the sky is blue
Yeah
And I'm in so electrically
Charged up kinetically
Acting eratically
Need you fanatically
You get to me magically
Sure as the sky is blue
Baby, I love you
Baby, I love you
Do you love me too
Baby, I love you".
It's also interesting that Martina is performing a cover of Pat Benatar's classic tune, Hit Me With Your Best Shot on the CD and DVD.
Cheers, Mikey
