- Covered Up:
- "My Baby Loves Me" was originally a Top 10 hit in Canada for Patricia Conroy a year prior to Martina's version.
- "Safe in the Arms of Love" was originally recorded by Gail Davies in her short-lived group Wild Choir, and by Baillie & the Boys after that. Michelle Wright also released a version in Canada at the same time that Martina released hers in the States.
- "Swingin' Doors" was originally released by Molly & the Heymakers.
- "Happy Girl" was recorded by Beth Nielsen Chapman a year prior to Martina's version.
- Narm: Some of the lyrics in her Issue Drift era lean toward this. Prime examples include "living on dreams and Spaghetti-O's" in "This One's for the Girls" and "I met God's Will on a Halloween night / He was dressed as a bag of leaves" in "God's Will".
- Seasonal Rot: Some fans think that her quality took a nosedive around Emotion, due to her moving straight into a combination of Issue Drift and Melismatic Vocals that long overstayed its welcome.
- Sequel Displacement: As it was her first big hit, most people don't realize that "My Baby Loves Me" was the lead single to her second album.
- Signature Song: "My Baby Love Me", "Independence Day", "A Broken Wing", "Concrete Angel", "This One's for the Girls".
