Week #21 - The Mother's Day edition & a heavy metal bonus

TL;DR: I'm running a weekly newsletter with 5 songs and a short description, and a matching Spotify playlist if you want to subscribe.

For the non-Spotify readers, there is a Youtube link for each of the songs on the cover.

Hello everyone!

Week 21.

Happy mother’s day today (it’s today in France). So today’s theme is songs or bands with motherhood (or at least a reference to "mother" either in the song title, or album, or the band name :-)).

And as a special treat, 5 more (random) songs from my heavy metal rotation from last month at the bottom of this email.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher ground

• One of the early bangers from the RHCP, from the album "Mother's Milk"

• Full album

2Pac - Dear Mama

• A brutally honest song and lyrics, acknowledging the things that Tupac’s mother did wrong.

• Full album: Me Against The World

Danzig - Mother

• The lead singer of the influential horror-punk band Misfits, posing himself as the ultimate the corruptor of sons and daughters :-)

• Full album: Danzig
