Vic,
Sweet tribute. Fun rhymes & well performed. I could understand most of lyrics without looking, but I think vocals can be slightly more upfront. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Lovely tribute to your mom, Vic. Strong write, I especially liked the chorus. Cool vocal as always.
Good one, enjoyed!

Hi Misha.
Thank you. Glad you like it.
I'm torn between to camps. Those who say the vocal is too loud and those who think it's too soft.
I'm like "piggy in in the middle".
I suppose as long as 50% are in favour I'm ok.
Vic

Nice write, fun listen, catchy. Love the mandolin. Can't ask for much from a song!

Vic - that’s my Mama
That’s a delightful song, Vic. It had both of us reminiscing about our Mama’s and the similarity in the character of that generation. Weren’t we lucky?!
Everything sounds good!

There have been many songs about fathers on this forum, so it's very welcome hear about a mother for a change. Mothers work hard for us, even though we don't always notice or appreciate it enough, glad that you do. Nice band also, great upbeat groove, mandolin and fiddle work very well together. Catchy melody. And I always enjoy your strong vocal.

Hi Janne.
You’re right. Daughters tend to praise their mothers openly. Maybe sons think it to be unmanly.
Thank you for listening.

Hi Vircan,
Well-written lyrics allow us to put images on the text. A mother is a precious possession. The orchestration is pleasant. I appreciated.
