Songs for you mum.

[MummyJoJo89]

I was thinking today about my mother, and how when I was growing up certain songs reminded me of certain memories. But I can't think of a song that reminds me of my own mother.

So I just wanted to ask you all.
What songs do you associate with your mum?

It’s not really a mother/daughter song but my Mum and I went through a really bad patch when I was young, both abused throughout my childhood by my step father and when we finally left we were homeless, sharing a bed at my nans etc. Then we finally got a house we were sat in the living room with the radio on and ‘You’re still the one’ by Shania Twain came on so I always associate that with her now

ABBA, Cliff Richard and the Grease soundtrack.

Unchained Melody - it’s her favourite tune.

After my DM died I heard Sinead O'Connor singing
Nothing compares to you.
I crumbled, luckily I was at home on my own washing up.
I felt like it had been written for me.

A lullaby, "si hei lwli".

Bloody Cleo Laine and James Galway.
