Mother’s Day, which falls on the second Sunday of May, is a day to express gratitude to our beloved mothers.
In this article, we introduce “songs of thanks” that can help you convey your appreciation to your mom on Mother’s Day.
A mother’s presence—someone who always accepts you with kindness no matter what—means so much to a child.
Even as adults, many of us probably still feel, “I just can’t compete with my mom!”

This is a song included on “Meccha☆Hajibamu +1.” I’m feeling the greatness and depth of a mother’s love right now.
When we realize a mother’s love, it’s also a moment when we reflect on ourselves—our selfishness and dependence up to that point.
On a big stage, they express gratitude to just one person.
It’s moving.
To MomAI
This song portrays a mother’s presence with a love that is both strict and tender.
It isn’t for the straight-A woman who grew up doing everything her parents said, but for the spirited woman who clashed honestly and grew into adulthood through those confrontations.
It’s a masterpiece overflowing with deep love for a mother, and I especially want women like that to hear it.

By using “Anma”—a colloquial Okinawan term for mother that isn’t understood outside Okinawa—as its title, this song aims to reach each person’s one-and-only mother directly.
If you try to make it objective, the feeling becomes blurred; the feelings we all have for the single mother we each have in this world paradoxically lead us back to the emotions we hold for our own mother.
To MotherKG
It skillfully portrays the feelings toward a mother that one can finally express honestly after becoming a grown man, with the awkwardness toward her fading.
It celebrates the idea that precious memories dwell not in special events but in fleeting moments of everyday life, and it once again pays tribute to the profound presence of a mother.
MOTHERSEAMO
This track kicks off with a breezy, rap-like vibe and is packed with the honest feelings of a clumsy guy who tends to brush off his parents, especially his mom.
The music video—starring Shiro Tsubuyaki and crafted with film-like quality—is brimming with emotion and is a must-see.
Letterback number
It’s a heartwarming ballad that conveys a sense of eternal love.
As you listen, you can truly feel that you’re always being watched over and supported.
Even when you’re apart, it fills you with gratitude for their enduring love.
At the time, it was released as a strictly limited-production single.
It’s hard to say out loud because it’s embarrassing, but the song expresses their gratitude to the mothers who have always taken care of them.
Sung gently with an acoustic guitar, it’s very soothing to listen to.
to MotherYUI
A song that refers to the mother as “you” while praising her objectively as a human being.
Now that I’m an adult, the words and scenes that linger in my ears bring back the certainty that happiness was there, stirring a bittersweet ache and warmth from deep within my heart.
