2011 MDA Telethon Performance - Martina McBride "Somewhere Over the Rain...

This is the purest voice I have heard since Linda Ronstadt. There is no way to describe this incredible voice as recodings do not do her justice. I had the privilege of attending a Martina concert a few years ago in Charleston. 10,000 plus people at the Coliseum and it seemed as if I were at a symphony concert. This tiny woman threw her head back and blew the audience away with her talent, earning a standing ovation after each song.
Martina's version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow captures her incredible phrasing and tone, and voice control.
