EMOTION, Martina McBride's fifth release (not counting her Christmas CD), is a fine collection of songs that show off the singer's magnificent voice. McBride's vocal range gets a real workout, from the restrained prettiness of "There You Are" and "Good Bye" to the powerful, emotion-packed readings of "From the Ashes" and "This Uncivil War." McBride, who is known for believe-in-yourself, strong-woman anthems like "Independence Day" and "A Broken Wing," offers a couple more here, "Do What You Do" and "It's My Time." The latter is one of the strongest performances on the CD.
Though EMOTION is a country album, two of the tracks seem designed for pop crossover success. "I Love You," first heard on the RUNAWAY BRIDE soundtrack, is a song that has the same feel and lyrical wordplay as Faith Hill's career-making smash, "This Kiss," while "Anything and Everything" is a mid-tempo love song that would fit right in on any soft rock radio station. The most unusual track on the album is "Love's the Only House," a song that sports a catchy chorus despite its serious social message.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - ...The machinery is all in place, the songs sound easily good enough, [and] her voice much richer than la Twain's. Nashvillle currently loves [her]...
...Eventually, this singer will find a way to separate herself from the pack. In the meantime, she sounds great just getting there. - Rating: B+
