someguy is it a mistake that You're In My House Now is listed twice?

[Deleted]

I always forget how much I love her.

Top 10 (mostly her big hits, I guess):
1. Trip Around The Sun
2. Wild Angels
3. Independence Day
4. A Broken Wing
5. Happy Girl
6. Love's The Only House
7. Blessed
8. My Baby Loves Me
9. Valentine
10. I'm Gonna Love You Through It

I wouldn't feel confident posting a "bottom five" but I'm not a fan of "God's Will" (laughable) or "Teenage Daughters."

Yeah. #6 should've been "One Night".

For whatever reason, never been much of a fan. What felt like a string of dreary ballads asking for tears killed me on her.

[bboat11]

I cannot believe I never posted in this one! What a severe lapse on my part. Anyway, since Martina is my favorite, many of her hits stand out to me and it is very difficult for me to place one above another on a favorites list. That being said, I think this is pretty close to where I would rank them if I absolutely had to. I just chose to rank all of them rather than pick 5 favorites/least favorites :)

Top 5 (These songs are pretty much constantly a part of my life):
1) Where Would You Be
2) When God-Fearin' Women Get The Blues
3) A Broken Wing
4) Whatever You Say
5) Anyway

Still LOVE LOVE LOVE (basically a continuation of the top 5):
6) Independence Day
7) I Just Call You Mine (I never understood all the hate for this one. It is a HUGE guilty pleasure for me.)
8) How Far
9) Safe In The Arms Of Love
10) Wrong Again
11) There You Are
12) Ride
13) Wild Angels
14) Concrete Angel
15) I'm Gonna Love You Through It
16) Love's The Only House
17) Happy Girl
18) Phones Are Ringin' All Over Town
19) Swingin' Doors
20) Wrong Baby Wrong Baby Wrong

Merely love, but not LOVE:
21) Blessed
22) Still Holding On
23) I Love You
24) My Baby Loves Me
25) Valentine
26) This One's For The Girls
27) Cry On The Shoulder Of The Road
28) Life #9
29) The Time Has Come
30) (I Never Promised You A) Rose Garden
31) Heart Trouble
32) Where I Used To Have A Heart

Still enjoy, but they pale in comparison to her greats:
33) Teenage Daughters
34) God's Will
35) It's My Time
36) Cheap Whiskey
37) Marry Me

Bottom 5: (Should have never been singles. There were much better options on all of these albums...)
38) How I Feel
39) For These Times
40) In My Daughter's Eyes
41) That's Me
42) I Still Miss Someone

I am honestly not too big on Martina McBride. She's highly talented and I've liked a decent portion of her work. But she's very much hit and miss with me lately and well lately she's been miss.
