Martina McBride is something of a marvel. Throughout her career she has managed to walk a tightrope between Nash-Vegas commercial concerns and the high art of well-crafted songwriting and serious singing that makes up modern country at its best. Her hits in the Nineties ("Wild Angels," Independence Day," "Life #9," "Safe in the Arms of Love") were beacons of light in a darkness of clichéd and over-produced cowboy-disco tunes. Martina continues her tradition of tasteful tune picking and powerful but never over-the-top vocals. "This One's for the Girls" mines much missed Mary Chapin Carpenter territory, while tunes like "In My Daughter's Eyes" and "So Magical" (with its scenes of rural bliss) stay safely this side of excessive sentimentality thanks to McBride's considered performances. Even pop tunes like "When You Love Me" and "Learning to Fall" are kept country with an emphasis on guitars, fiddles, and steels over syrupy synthesizers. Throughout, producers Paul Worley and McBride herself give Nashville lessons on how to make a record that is shiny but never slick. Finally, her live performance of "Over the Rainbow" is a lesson on delivering a show-stopping vocal with minimal melisma and maximum soul. --Michael Ross

 Little here to please an old-fashioned country fan December 8, 2008
Axton Blessendon, Jr. (Canton, OH)
I liked the single okay -- a glossy but propulsive gal-power anthem called "This One's For The Girls" -- but with the exception of a tune or two, the rest of this album is really just a bit much. Her soul-styled glissandos are a real turnoff, particularly on tracks like "How Far" and "When You Love Me," and almost every song on here is horribly overwritten, and horribly over-obvious. All these songs about Everywoman and Everywoman's interior monologues and self-helpy struggle for self-affirmation... Geez, louise... Doesn't anyone in Nashville still believe in just writing catchy, twangy little songs that the folks at home can can sing along to and enjoy? That's the stuff I like, and the stuff that's kept me interested in Country for over thirty years... not all this high-concept glitziness and the big, loud pop arrangements.
This is one of McBride's most "pop" albums, and her newer fans will probably love it... This is pretty much along the same lines as her other recent work. But there's little here to please an old-fashioned country fan like me. (Axton)

Love this CD. Especially Martina's song: "In my daughter's Eyes". Bought as a gift for my daughter who recently gave birth to her first daughter. Thanks!!!!!!
Great CD, Great Person February 11, 2008
Jianjing Zhang (Shanghai, China)
Martina Mcbride maybe has the best voice of her generation, so versatile and so powerful. But only the powerful is not enough, Martina also shows great talent as a songwriter. In her songs, Martina always concerns love and problem in our life, like Concrete Angel in her greatest hit, like many in this album, especially, In My Daughter's Eyes.
Martina is really a good person and especially a good mother, unlike Britney Spears or Paris Hilton, Martina should always be a great role model to say when talking with our future generations.
BEST MCBRIDE! January 18, 2008
Puddleglumm (Memphis, TN)
In my humble opinion, this is the BEST single album by Martina McBride. I have a preference for songs that are positive, upbeat, and inspirational and of all of her recordings, I think this one fits the bill. There are some real highpoints on this recording including her "live" rendition of "Over the Rainbow." THIS LADY CAN SING!
