Mother's Day is right around the corner and while we run out to make sure we get just the perfect card and gift for that special lady in our lives, we here at GlobalGrind took some to time to run down a list of the most noteworthy songs for mom.

Songs celebrating mothers cross genres and cultures, but one thing's for sure, they can definitely run the gamut.

"Hey Mama," Kanye West

We were shocked and saddened to hear about the death of Kanye West's mom Donda on November 10, 2007. Kanye didn't hide his love for his mother, as noted on the 2005 track "Hey Mama" off his sophomore album "Late Registration." Listen to the song here.
