OT: Mother's Day Songs

[meyers7]

Ok, I don't see any song threads from this month on the first page, so I should be able to start one without getting in trouble.

Since Mother's Day is coming up this weekend, don't forget your mother. Songs with Mother (mom, mama, etc.) in the Title or bands with Mother (mom, mama, etc.) in their name. I think there's quite a few of them out there.

So I'll start with Mother - Pink Floyd

Excellent topic & excellent lead off choice!
I'm gonna piggyback on this with another version, this one from The Wall Live in Berlin.
Sinead O'Connor on lead with some talented support.

I'm not sure if this really fits the theme, but anytime I have a chance to post a Smokey Robinson song I'm doing it.

One from Hal Ketchum - RIP, Hal.
Mama Knows the Highway
Not the best quality video.

Mama told me when I was young Come sit beside me my only son And listen closely to what I say And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day. Oh Yah!

Here's one that may not quite fit the spirit of Mother's Day, but it does mention "mother" in the lyrics. Pete Townsend is a little twisted...

"Mama Tried," a great Merle Haggard tune covered by the Grateful Dead. They sang it about 300 times in concert.

 

[ThisJustIn]

Claudia Schmidt and Sally Rogers, "Mama I Miss You Tonight."

Saw a cool video a couple years ago for this, but can't find it now. Anyway. A good Canadian group.

One of the most heartfelt performances in Elvis Presley’s catalog, “Mama Liked The Roses” was recorded in 1970 when his voice was arguably at an all-time peak. Elvis’s love for his mother Gladys was legendary and though this tribute song was recorded 12 years after her death, you can still hear him fighting back tears during the spoken part. Though only a B-side at the time, it’s since become one of the iconic Elvis tracks.
