mother daughter song
I was fascinated to think about a place where men could be the mothers and I thought of my own song-writing and I decided to have a relationship with their daughters.
daughter mother song
Operation Peter Pan spanned from 1960-62 whereby over 14,000 children were sent away from their families in Cuba, some never to reunite again. Pan Am flights took the children to Miami FL, 'Never-Never Land', and the children became known as the 'Peter Pans.' I wrote this song for my daughter, and it is sung for all the daughters and mothers, fathers and brothers who felt this pain of separation all because of governments and their politics.
mother three
I was very close to my mother as the youngest of three. She was my playmate.
mother wife steps
I'm not very social when I'm off the promo trail, because I step into wife and mother mode. It's very reclusive.
mother undone
When the mothers start to shatter, then everything just comes undone.
mother rocks scary
There are enough scary rock & roll mothers in the world.
mother
At 15, I knew someone whose mother cooked macrobiotic, so I persuaded my mother to go macrobiotic with me.
mom mother children
I became a mom at 37 and having a child has been an emancipation for me.
mother records classic
I love the classic crooners, but I got that from my mother - she worked in a record store.
mother law great-relationship
I have a great relationship with my mother-in-law. We're both Leos, we understand each other.
mother morning kings
My mother says I was two-and-a-half when I started playing. My father was a minister, and when he went to church in the morning, she would put on Fats Waller, Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole and Cole Porter records. I'd crawl up on the piano stool, sit on a phone book and play.
mother swings important
I'm a mother, and that's really important. Today, the mother and the musician can sit next to each other. Even when the musician is out there in full swing, the mother doesn't get switched off.
mom mother talking
When I was little, my mom tells me, I used to say things like, 'Mom do you hear the string section? Do you hear the string section?' And she would look at me and say, 'No honey, I don't know what you're talking about.'
inspiring mothers-day thinking
If you are a nurturing mother, and a good one, you can go to play groups, sit on the floor and play all the games, and have tea with the other mothers, but wouldn't you like to think that's not all there is? That you haven't hung up your high heels without knowing how to walk in them?
