Buck wrote some liner notes for this album:

"When I first heard Martina sing, it sent chills through me.  She's one great singer.  Very few singers have ever affected me like Martina McBride.  When I met her, her flashing smile and eyes were startling, her dazzling beauty was apparent to all.  Along with her singing and her beauty, there is only one thing that comes before her music: her love for her family, children, and husband guides her every footstep.  She is very kind to her fans and all who come in contact with her, and her charitable attitude is unequaled.

As I'm writing about Martina, I'm listening to her sing this group of songs she has gathered together and in my 55 years of being in music, I've never heard them done better.   She is loved nationally as well as internationally, but after this album, she'll be loved universally.

If one could see Martina's heart, I'm sure you'd find it to be red, white, and blue.  Our kind of music, present and future, is in good hands.  Martina McBride's hands!"
