Martina never did shy away from difficult topics. Please watch her singing, "Concrete Angel." Another I love from her is called, "I'm Gonna Love You Through It." Her vocals absolutely shine live in, "Where Would You Be," live from the Flameworthy Awards. That tiny woman has such a huge voice, in so many ways! Mad respect for her!
I just don't think you understand…. Very rarely are abusers put in jail much less for a long time. And staying? When they vow to find you and prove that they will it's fear that keeps women in these relationship.
I can tell you from experience, if the cops show up and dont witness anyone being violent, no one admits to any violence, and they dont see any marks, they will do nothing at all!
The most dangerous time for a woman in an abusive relationship is when she tries to leave. That's when she is at greatest risk for being killed. Police can't guard you... As the lyric in the song "Goodbye Earl" says - "He walked right through that restraining order and put her in intensive care".
Exactly. Restraining orders are pitiful as protection. People can still do a lot of damage from the prescribed number of feet away and if they're sneaky about it you won't have a chance to call the police to report a violation you'll be dead. Restraining orders seem to me to be either evidence after the fact and or a clue to where to start looking at suspects
You are exactly right. A girl who was close to my family growing up married and had three children with a man who was physically and mentally abusive. When her kids were between 9 and 16, she found out that he had a second family he supported in Mexico. She filed for divorce at last, and had a restraining order so he didn't come to their house. But they ran a business together and it was there he went to find her. When mom didn't get home at the usual time, the 16 year old rode her bicycle to the shop, only to find her father had committed a murder/suicide. It was her leaving that put him all the way over the edge.
Martina ended up with burns from this video. She was placed too close to the burning house but knew she only had a limited time to get good video footage so she just endured it.
I’d like to suggest Vince Gill “Go Rest High on that Mountain” official video, voice of an angel, beautiful beautiful song and out the death of his brother. Might make you cry.
Sometimes it is the only way ,, I been in a relationship like that ,, but I have full grown children that helped put a end to it ,, but I understand because she had no help so she did it to save her child
While doing this video, Martina was standing too close to the burning house, but they only had one shot of doing this, so while the house burned, Martina got scorched by the heat but kept on singing and not telling anyone. Of course, afterwards she had medical attention but this only shows the strength that this woman has and how caring she is. Martina has such a great voice.

The profoundness in the mother and daughter singing Amazing Grace that morning. Momma knew what was coming that day~
Martina has one of the best, most powerful voices ever.
I can't believe this song is 30 years old! Martina has perfect pitch and her voice is amazing! Please check out Broken Wing and Where Would You Be!
A Broken Wing is my favorite by Martina ❤
The police use to tell the husband to take a walk and cool off then he would come back home and finish the job

Making you feel.
Queen Reba McEntire says…If you cannot make people feel the emotions, Don’t sing the song. That’s Country Music.
Martina's vocals are magical live ❤❤
This song gets me every time.

A must of Martina - Where Would You Be - live
You’d have a hard time finding a better live vocal performance.
Unless you"ve lived it, you can't understand. Bruises on the skin heal. Abusers use their mouths as more than they use their fists.
Classic country didn’t use auto tune, it’s a great genre

Another 5 foot nothing singer with an incredible powerful voice
This is the best music video I know of and I grew up in the 1980's with MTV. Her next best video is for the song God's Will.
I recommend her song " Broken Wing"
By?
@@therealLeoJofficial Martina McBride
Beautiful voice! Domestic violence is just a terrible issue and for police a scary call
I like that you get it...be we need to say Spouse rather than "partner"....
This song is about her niece
Must do Broken Wing.
Sadly I have been there. Sometimes it is the only way. My ex got away with it every time.
I’d recommend you listen to John Michael Montgomery ‘ the little girl’.
I also recommend "BROKEN WING" LIVE
I love her and her videos. Also do carrie underwood singing melody of her Christian cd at the 56th ACM awards thx.

She channeled that pain into her voice
I think it's easy for you as a man to say it's not the only way.......and as for moving on many women don't live to get that chance. Pure ignorance
