Her childhood memories, mother’s warmth and love are all gorgeously captured in the lyrics of the song.

‘Let it be’ by Beatles

One of the most timeless Beatles track, ‘Let it be’ was inspired by Paul’s late mother, Mary. Stirred by a dream of his mom, Paul wrote a song about how life works itself out if we just ‘Let it be’. Mary always advised her son to ‘Let it be’ when it came to challenges and troubles in life. The song captures a mother’s unconditional support and strength for her son in the most beautiful way.

‘Only One’ by Kanye West 

‘Only One’ is Kanye West’s touching tribute to his beloved mom Donda, who passed away in 2007. Ye took a lot of creative inspiration from his mother and the result was him creating the song ‘Only One’ which is a message sung to his daughter North from her late granny’s perspective.

‘Mama’ by The Spice Girls

Mothers have always served as an inspiration for a plethora of pop tracks, one of them being ‘The Spice Girls’ song ‘Mama’. The song elaborates on how kids are rebellious to their moms during their teenage, and as they grow old they realize it was for their good. During the writing process, each member wrote a small verse in a different corner of the recording studio, while the chorus was finished around the piano with a guitar.

‘Oh Mother’ by Christina Aguilera

It’s not always about the happy moments cherished, there are some songs that bring out personal life challenges and issues. The same goes for Aguilera’s song ‘Oh Mother’ where the singer takes us through the story of her mother’s abusive relationship with her father, how she came out of it and how the siblings emerged stronger as individuals, and promised to support their mother no matter what. It’s a song that touches your heart.
