There is no bond like that of a mother and child. Nothing can even come close to touching the relationship that a son or daughter shares with the woman who once carried them within her. Garth Brooks sought out to put this maternal relationship into song form when he wrote the song 'Mom' as a tribute to the one who gave him life. As a hit country star, Garth Brooks is known for his upbeat country swing, but this song elicits a different feeling for listeners.

Unique Song Structure That Draws Listeners In

Sung from the point of view of an unborn baby who is ready to make its way into this world, Garth sings about the fear of the unknown that the child battles with. Encouraging the baby to trust God with the person he has chosen to place them with, this song brings to life the moment when two souls meet for the very first time. Singing lyrics like "a loving angel, tender, tough and strong" shows listeners just what Garth thinks about women who give everything to their children. Hearing these deep lyrics sung by Garth's characteristic voice makes it even better.

“So, hush now baby don't you cry / 'cause there's someone down there waiting / whose only goal in life is / makin' sure you're always gonna be alright"
