Mother of a Song List

With Mother’s Day coming up, I figured it’d be nice to compile a list of great songs dedicated to mom. No, I don’t mean all lovey dovey, thanks for raising me type stuff. I’m talking about songs that have the word mom, mother, mama or any variation in their title. I’m sure mom will appreciate each and every one of these. And to sucker her in, we’ll even start with a nice sweet one.

Top 10 Songs About Your Mother

10. “Mother” by John Lennon

9. “Mother” by Danzig

8. “Mama I’m Coming Home” by Ozzy Osbourne

I couldn’t find the real vid to this Ozzy tune, but I found this one which has the song set to the awesometastic anime series “Fullmetal Alchemist.”

7. “Mother” by Pink Floyd

6. “Mama Weer All Crazee Now” by Quiet Riot

5. “Mama Kin” by Aerosmith

I couldn’t find the original vid by Aerosmith (do they even have one?), so instead, here’s a sweet live version by Aerosmith and Guns N Roses, complete with a pot-bellied Axl Rose for your viewing pleasure.

4. “Your Mama Don’t Dance” by Poison

3. “Mother’s Little Helper” by The Rolling Stones

I couldn’t find an official vid for this one either, but this version is pretty well done.

2. “Tie Your Mother Down” by Queen

No official vid found for this either, and this version’s pretty boring to look at, except it scrolls the lyrics so you can sing along at your desk and frighten your fellow co-workers!
