Christina Aguilera, the queen of global pop who sparked widespread buzz at her debut and has won multiple Grammy Awards, was ranked 58th on Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time.

When you’re troubled or confused, it will surely give you courage and energy!
Like My Mother DoesLauren Alaina46rank/position
Country musician Lauren Alaina.
Her song “Like My Mother Does” is perfect for Mother’s Day.
The lyrics pay respect to a mother’s strength, beauty, and kindness, and they also express gratitude for everything she’s done in raising her child.
It could be a great surprise to play on Mother’s Day—the powerful vocals will create a moving atmosphere.
By the way, her mother appears in the music video.
How about enjoying this parent-child duet as a parent and child yourselves?
JuliaThe Beatles47rank/position
The legendary band The Beatles’ “Julia” is a song John Lennon wrote about his mother, Julia Lennon.
Performed as a solo piece with John singing and playing guitar, it was included on their ninth studio album, The Beatles, released in 1968.
Julia passed away when John was 17, so in the song he gently calls to mind his mother.
If you happen to think of your own mother in a quiet moment, why not listen to this song and maybe even think of a gift for her?
In My LifeThe Beatles48rank/position
The Beatles, a British rock band.
It’s probably fair to say everyone knows they left behind countless masterpieces.
When it comes to a Beatles song that expresses gratitude, there’s “In My Life.” It’s a piece John Lennon wrote while reflecting on his own life.
The lyrics convey thanks to the people he met and to his family.
Since it doesn’t explicitly state exactly whom it’s addressed to, I think it can be used in a variety of situations.
Look What You’ve DoneDrake49rank/position
A song from Canadian hip-hop artist Drake’s 2011 album “Take Care.” It expresses his gratitude to his mother for helping him become the man he is today.
