How to use songs to surprise your mom on Mother’s Day
It’s not just about putting a song on her and saying “Happy Mother’s Day!” But the nice thing about giving your mom a song is doing it in an original and special way. Therefore, before we start with our particular list of songs dedicated to mothers, we offer you some original ideas so that your dear mother feels special on this day. We hope we can inspire you so that this year you pay homage to her as she deserves.
- A video with photos of mom and children: collect all the photos you have with your mother, your brothers or sisters (if any) and you. Scan all the photos if you don’t already have them digitally and with a video editor create a composition with the chosen song in the background. There are currently a multitude of very easy-to-use applications for mobile phones, tablets and computers, with which you can do it.
- Dedicate the song to her on the radio: if your mom listens to the radio often, surprise her with a song dedicated to her on her favorite show. Make sure you are there when she hears it and say something special in the message that she can recognize as you. She will love it!
- A Serenade: Hire a group to go to the balcony of his house and sing him the song you have chosen. They can be mariachis, troubadours or any music group that is dedicated to doing this service in your city.
- Music video: Another option is to make a music video yourself, in which you can be the protagonist or the whole family can participate. The idea is that you appear as if you were the group and sing the song. It will be very fun! And your mother will love it.
- Organize a flash mob for her: imagine you are walking down the street on Mother’s Day and suddenly a bunch of strangers start dancing to their favorite song or a song you have chosen to dedicate to them. Your mother will have a great time and it will be an amazing gift.
- Sing it to him: if you like to sing, dedicate the song to him personally. If you also play the guitar or the piano or a relative does, it will be much more beautiful. You can do it at lunch or dinner, in an intimate family moment. Or if you’re more daring, you can also do it on the restaurant’s stage (you’ll have to look for one that has it) with a microphone and everything. It will be a lovely surprise.
- Record It – Another option is to record the song, either the original or your own if you’re a musical talent, and mail it to him so it arrives that day for him to put on his stereo. It is a very nice gift if you are far from your mother and you will not be able to see her on that special day.
Did you like our suggestions? It is about going one step further, using your imagination and giving him a special gift that touches his heart and soul. Congratulations, mom!

- And I look again, and I see my debt grow
- with these angels
- Who have dedicated a lifetime to be able to create

- Sonnet to mom – Joan Manuel Serrat
The teachings of a mother are priceless, like the ones shown by singer-songwriter Joan Manuel Serrat in this beautiful song. The good way to love, tranquility, appreciation of what we have in life, the importance of care… there are many lessons that a mother gives her sons and daughters from her day by day.
- It’s not that I won’t come back because I’ve forgotten
- Of your smell of thyme and cooking
- From afar they say it looks clearer
- That it is not the same who walks and who walks
- And I knew that love has green eyes
- What four suits does the deck have?
- That what is lost never returns
- And the tide rises and then falls
- I knew that the simple is not foolish
- Not to confuse value and price
- And a delicacy can be any bite
- If the horizon is light and the course is a kiss
- It’s not that I won’t come back because I’ve forgotten
- It’s that I lost my way back
- Mom…
- It’s my mother – Isabel Pantoja
If your mother likes Isabel Pantoja, then this is the perfect song to dedicate to her this Mother’s Day. To thank the pain of childbirth, the one that was always there, in her womb and from the first day of her birth. A song that talks about maternal support, about that figure that anyone needs to have in her life (whether biological or not).
- She is much much more than my friend
- It looks more like me than the same me
- She warms up my engine when it’s cold
- And lifts me up when I fall in pain
- She does nothing more and nothing less
- That loving me exactly how I am
- And accompany me from afar and give me courage
- That’s not love, it’s much more than love
- She is my mother
- The woman who gave her own blood for me
- And she gave birth to me without fear, it’s you, my mother
- That woman who accepted me without knowing me
- And just seeing me adored me
- That is much more than everything
- That’s so much more than love
- She knows where I am even if I hide
- And let me be as free as I am
- Makes him shut up when he wants me to answer
- And he answers me only when I want
- And sometimes I think that I love her
- and other times not
- That’s not love, that’s much, much more than love
- She is my mother
- The woman who gave her own blood for me
- And she gave birth to me without fear, it’s you, my mother
- That woman who accepted me without knowing me
- And just seeing me adored me
- That is much more than everything
- That’s so much more than love
- She is my mother

The genius Bruce Springsteen wrote this beautiful song to his mother, now deceased, recalling his childhood and the influence that he had on him throughout his life. A song full of love, memories and a lot of rock. I’m sure your mother will love it.
- Dirty old street all slushed up in the rain and snow
- Little boy and his ma shivering outside a rundown music store window
- That night on top of a Christmas tree shines one beautiful star
- And lying underneath a brand-new Japanese guitar
- I remember in the morning, ma, hearing your alarm clock ring
- I’d lie in bed and listen to you gettin’ ready for work
- The sound of your makeup case on the sink
- And the ladies at the office, all lipstick, perfume and rustlin’ skirts
- And how proud and happy you always looked walking home from work
- If pa’s eyes were windows into a world so deadly and true
- You couldn’t stop me from looking but you kept me from crawlin’ through
- And if it’s a funny old world, mom, where a little boy’s wishes come true
- Well I got a few in my pocket and a special one just for you
- It ain’t no phone call on Sunday, flowers or a mother’s day card
- It ain’t no house on a hill with a garden and a nice little yard
- I got my hot rod down on Bond Street, I’m older but you’ll know me at a glance
- We’ll find us a little rock ‘n roll bar and baby we’ll go out and dance
- Well it was me in my Beatle boots, you in pink curlers and matador pants
- Pullin’ me up from the couch to do the twist for my uncles and aunts
- Well I found a girl of my own now, ma, I popped the question on your birthday
- She stood waiting on the front porch while you were telling me to get out there
- And say what it was that I had to say
- Last night we all sat around laughing at the things that guitar brought us
- And I lay awake thinking ’bout the other things it’s brought us
- Well tonight I’m takin’ your requests here in the kitchen
- This one’s for you, ma, let me come right out and say it
- It’s overdue, but baby, if you’re looking for a sad song, well I ain’t gonna play it

- Feeling in the words emotion
- I can boast of my great love
- You are the most beautiful thing that ever happened to me
- Mother
- Today I want to say I love you
- I plan to steal your years
- be tender thief of you
- What a joy it is to tell you
- The things that the heart has felt
