Martina McBride has an ear for picking hits. The powerhouse dominated the country radio airwaves in the 1990s-2000s with hits like “Broken Wing,” “Valentine,” and “This One’s For The Girls.”
In a recent interview with Cody Alan, the “Girl Like You” singer revealed one smash hit that she didn’t even expect to be a single.
“Interestingly enough, “Independence Day,” revealed Martina. “While I loved it. I never really thought of it as a single. I just knew that a lot of people really needed to hear it, but I never really thought it was a super commercial record so that one surprised me a little.”
