It's no secret that moms are a pretty big deal. This Mother's Day, we wanted to celebrate moms the best way we knew how--with music!
We asked our social media followers and very own employees to share stories about song that remind them of their mother. We used those songs plus other popular mom-music from the Atlantic and Warner catalog to create the ultimate Mother's Day playlist! Share and listen with your mom, your friend's mom, your mom's mom, or anyone you think of like a mom. Enjoy!
"Chiquitita" - ABBA | My mother was around my age when disco was big and always wanted to be a dancing queen. "Chiquitita" is like my mom consoling me through song!
"A Thousand Years" - Christina Perri | I fell in love with [Christina Perri] and this song during an adoption special when she sang it. - Catherine
"Mama Said" - Metallica | Every mom loves Metallica! - Fred
"End Of The Line" - Traveling Wilburys | When I was about 10 years old, my mom found this album on cassette, and we would listen to this song and ONLY this song on repeat every car ride that summer. My brother and I would tease her and get irritated after the 3rd or 4th time it would play, but now every time I hear it, it brins a smile to my face and makes me feel safe! - Tonianne
"House Of Gold" - Twenty One PIlots | "House Of Gold" was written about [twenty one pilots front man] Tyler's mom! - Dan
I Can't Smile Without You - Barry Manilow | Before I could walk or talk, my mother had me singing this song word for word. Many years later we danced to this song at my wedding. - Paul
