    Mine was "Anyway" I hadn't seen her sing live before 2008. It was amazing. I cried when she sang that song; tears of joy I would assume! :)

    My first Martina show was in 2004 when she toured with Alan! I wish that Alan would have been her opening act. Sadly, I wish I had gone to shows before then. The one that really gave me chills was Over The Rainbow. To be honest, all of it is a blur, and that is the only one I remember! My seats weren't the greatest, either. Thank goodness for fan club seats thanks to Tracy!!! :)

    She opened with God Fearin' Women that tour. The fan club seats were a disaster back then. We didn't have the awesome system that we have now. You had to physically go to the venue at the time they first went on sale. For many cities (including mine), the venue workers had no clue about the fan club tickets. We were promised seats within the first 10 rows and did not get them. Thankfully, those ticketing days are over.

    Joy of Christmas tour and it was a Christmas tune but I don't remember which one....I do remember Concrete Angel as the one Martina song she sang that night.....I always like to hear When God Fearin Women Get the Blues near the start of a concert (great song to get things going)

    The full moon is calling
    The fever is high
    And the wicked wind whispers and moans
    You've got your demons
    And you've got desires
    But I got a few of my own......

    "Thanks a Lot" was the first because it was on teh Timeless tour - 2006... I'll never forget it... she appeared in that gorgeous teal dress and started singing. I was sooooo excited. I had no clue how incredible it was going to be. I think the first song of hers she sang in the second half though was.... "When God Fearing Women Get the Blues"
    I have been blessed with so much more than I deserve. To be here with the ones who love me; to love them so much it hurts.

    I don't remember the very first song (it was several years ago), but I remember the most memorable song was "Concrete Angel" at that same concert, my first one to see her. The video was playing in the background and I just remember sitting there with tears streaming down my face. It was even more touching and heartwrenching experiencing it live.

    I think the first song was "THANKS A LOT" Can anybody confirm if that was what she opened the Timeless portion of her show at the Gwinett Arena in April of '06? That concert changed my life as I became a HUGE fan from that first note that Martina sang...whatever that note was...

    I believe she opened every single one of the regular Timeless shows with Thanks A Lot.

    And my first song was WGFWGTB at the MN State Fair on August 31, 2005. I can't believe it will be 5 years this year since my first Martina concert!! Seems like yesterday...
