      I know religion in general tends to be patriarchal, but if you teach your girls they don’t need a man to be whole, that is the best life lesson you can give them. If they grow up to be self-sufficient & independent, they won’t ever be in a position where a man can treat them like the woman in the music video. Just my opinion.

    Great reaction! This is considered Martina's signature song! It's hard to believe it is 30 years old! It peaked at #12 on the Country charts because radio stations didn't want to play a song about domestic violence. But it won CMA Video of the Year in 1994 and Song of the Year in 1995! Rolling Stone ranked it at #45 on the 100 Greatest County Songs of All Time in 2024.

      As someone born to this country one of the most touching experiences of my life was going to the Federal Courthouse and watching a naturalization ceremony. Seeing the excitement, joy and passion of our newest citizens (who had to jump through considerable hoops and work for it) was inspirational and emotional. I encourage everyone to witness it at least once.

      My daddy was the best man I've ever known. My sissy & I grew up surrounded by large, hard men who would have killed to protect us.
      We both married men who fooled us and we were abused (I had a broken nose, fractures on my skull and cheek and miscarried two babies. I literally joined the Army to get away from my husband. It took me two whole years to get divorced from him ( 4 years married in total).
      My second husband was a soldier and we've been together almost 40 years and he would never ever lay a hand on me. My sister took longer to divorce her husband but she has now been single for almost 35 years and she has never had another relationship with a man.
      My sister and I literally never knew that a man would treat us the way they did since my father or uncles and all of our calabash uncles would never have lifted a hand to a woman.
      We never told our father because he would have been thrown in prison for murder of two men.

      I'm always confused about how I should feel during this song. I end up feeling empty and sad. Victory at what cost? Her life seems to high a price. I don't have a daughter, but if I did her life would be to high of a cost, rather mine.

    Every time I hear this song I get tears in my eyes. I am not a person who cries but this song hits so close to home. I grew up with a military dad who was always deployed, and a step dad who was extremely physically and psychologically abusive.
    I intern grew up to enter a relationship with someone who literally almost ended my life. Now I am constantly trying to show my children how relationships are supposed to be, in hopes that this cycle of abuse ends with me. It is very important for you to show your girls how women are supposed to be treated. Not just with your relationship with them but also with how you treat their mother. I can't emphasize that enough for the men and women in my life, show your kids how relationships are supposed to be so they don't grow up to see toxicity, abuse and neglect as normal.

    What a lot of people don't realize (or forget) is: everyone has their breaking point. If no one is going to listen or help you then sometimes you get to the point where you can't take it anymore and decide that you're the only one you can depend on to change things or you just decide like the mother does to take the person out (unfortunately for her daughter herself as well).
    I thankfully never got to my breaking point when I was relentlessly bullied for several years. No one would listen they just told me to suck it up, ignore the bullies, and remember that they were just doing it for attention or to make themselves feel better. Before I reached my breaking point I was moved to a new school for high school and few of my bullies were there and those that were couldn't get away with it due to the smaller size of the school. That being said I completely understand the desperation (though being bullied and being a victim of domestic violence is not the same thing, it's just as isolating, and gives you the need for escape)

    I grew up without a father. I watched my mom and my sister be beaten bloody. They kept leaving but would date basically the same guy with a different name.
    It never happened to me. For me, it felt that because I was strong, knew my worth, refused to settle, was confident that it made a difference not just in who I chose but in how they acted towards me.
    My mom and sister always felt they had to have a man to be happy. I never did. I WANTED a man and to be married but I never allowed that desire to overshadow my common sense and my deal breakers.
    This was just me. My experience. It’s devastating to watch family go through this and not be able to help.
    Teach your girls to be confident, strong, and to know their value. They can still be feminine and strong. It’s not an either or situation. Keep showing them and their mother what love looks like.❤

    My dad got too angry on Mother’s Day 2012 and the evidence on my older sister got him placed under house arrest for 4-5 months, court mandated anger management classes and counseling. My older sister and I were always terrified that one day the whole family would not exist. With how small my hometown is, not a lot of people were happy with him. My sisters and I always wondered why our mom stuck around. Now grown up and seeing things the way we do now, we have a better understanding. They are still together and he is still just as quick to anger. Martina got me through the rough nights that’s for sure.

    We… we always want better for our children than we had, my words to this, being a long term fan of Martina & other very strong women artist of “our generation” I’d say this, it is way too common these days ESPECIALLY, we need to show our children how they should be treated.

    A little known fact about this music video is that martina was standing way too close to the burning house and was getting third degree burns on her back but refused to go to the hospital until all filming was done

    Martina's songs all of a message. Some are difficult subjects. Her song "God's Will" is one of my favorites. Or a fun one is "Teenage Daughters".

    Tidbit: Apparently, when Martina was singing this song in front of the burning house, she knew that there was only one chance to have the proper shot of it all, so she sang that song, while apparently her back got scorched (she either was standing too close or the fire was too hot). She continued to sing and its only after it was done that she told them about feeling burnt. They checked her out and yes, she had been scorched. (Don't know what degree burn she had but regardless, it must have hurt).

    Martina grew up in my county in Kansas so know all about her and yes, this world is the energy of purgatory if that answers questions out there. BUT we are moving into the Golden Age but have to take out the trash and clean things up first. Humanity is ascending out of hell but have to go through it to understand it and make sense of everything.

    One of my traditions for the 4th is to watch "1776." It's a musical about the lead up to the signing of the Declaration. The music is phenomenal, & the story line for the most part is historically accurate.

    JSYK Sebs, I served 32 years in the Army and I find it interesting that you keep humbling yourself about being an immigrant. Let me tell you Sir, I am proud to have served to protect Americans just like you. I am sorry to say that I can't say the same for a lot of natural born citizens because they have been led to believe things that simply aren't true. Thank you Sir for keeping the spirit alive and reminding me why I did what I did. ❤

    Great reaction! Glad you got your citizenship. Martina is one of my favorites. Domestic violence/abuse is such a terrible situation to be in... be it for a man, or a woman. My advice... just get out of the situation. There is NO reason to stay in it... ever... NONE.

    For a funnier side of Martina, you gotta check out “When God Fearing Women Get The Blues”! Awesome tune!

    Bruce Springsteen also has a song called Independence Day from his album, The River. BTW, the song The River, from the same album, is a really great, soulful song

    Because of the chorus, this song often gets thought of as a patriotic song, but I think this song carries much more of a story. Great reaction.

    It is scary raising children. But as long as you raise them with love and respect and open conversation, you’ve set the stage for them to know that there’s always home to come to. ❤
