Babs's cover!

I'm gonna put in a request for "Sadie," but I fear we'll get the Intruders' "I'll Always Love My Mama" (great sentiment, awful lead vocal).

"Motherless Children" by Steve Miller, Tom Jones/Portishead, or Clapton.  Something from Mother Earth perhaps? "Your Mother Should Know" or "Mother Nature's Son" from the Beatles.  "Mother's Lament" from Cream would be quite a stretch.

ABBA's "Does Your Mother Know" or "Mamma Mia."

"Motherless Children" by Steve Miller, Tom Jones/Portishead

Wow, Geoff, I'm psyched that you know the Tom Jones w/ Portishead version!  I really like both of his duet covers albums.

Will.i.am, "I Got It From My Mama"
Junior, "Mama Used to Say"

Good one.  I suggest The Police's "Mother".  Not a good song, but would be fun to hear.

Some fairly uncreative Fogheads on AL's FB page; I suggested the Junior, J-5, Fountains of Wayne and Queen songs mentioned above, as well as EJ's "Mama Can't Buy You Love"

AL nixed Lennon's "Mother" as "too sad and painful".

"Mama I'm Coming Home", Ozzy
"Shock Your Mama", Debbie Gibson
"Mothers Talk", Tears For Fears
"Wind Beneath My Wings", any version
"Down With The Sickness", Disturbed

I am glad that Annalisa is doing a lot of 'specialty' sets.
