Mother’s Day weekend seemed to come around so quickly this year, though I suppose that’s what happens when the 1st of May falls on a Sunday and results in Mother’s Day being on the earliest possible date it can. When it comes to songs, there’s certainly no shortage of ones that refer to mothers in the title or in the lyrics. With that in mind, when I was thinking about which songs to pick today, I realized that I liked two songs that have the exact same title, or are at least pronounced as such.
