Dissecting "Independence Day" by Martina McBride

from Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music

It's about time.  In this special July 4th episode, we finally tackle 90s icon Martina McBride, and arguably her signature song, 1994's "Independence Day". Rarely has a song been so committed in every aspect to its interwoven themes of justice and judgment, and from so many different angles and perspectives that we had to bring in a PhD to help us unravel them! (Seriously.) Dr. Victoria Reynolds Farmer joins Nashville Anthems as our first ever guest! So you're going to want to stick around to the very end of this one. Or else.
