Beth Hart - Mama This One's For You

Beth Hart – Mama This One’s For You (Live At The Royal Albert Hall) 2018.

Beth Hart – the GRAMMY nominated singer and songwriter with a voice “reminiscent of Etta James and Janis Joplin” (Music Connection) – has just released a moving Mother’s Day video for her song “Mama This One’s For You,” featured on her latest release ‘Better Than Home.’ The video features footage of Hart with her Mother, as well as clips submitted from fans with their moms or children.

The video begins with Hart introducing the song at a recent performance at London’s Union Chapel – “When I wrote it, I was so filled with I guess guilt, that I went and I called my mom and I was like, ‘I wrote you this song,’ and I played the song and I cried the whole way through it. And she’s like, ‘Ok Beth, just call me later when you’re not so upset.’ So this is for her. I love my momma more than anything.”

Known for her visceral, soul-baring vocals and dynamic range, Hart is recognized around the world as one of the great live vocalists of our time, selling out venues in New York, Los Angeles, London, Paris, Berlin, Milan, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, and more. She has performed and recorded with Jeff Beck, Slash, Joe Bonamassa, and Buddy Guy, topped Billboard’s Blues Album Chart, and been nominated for GRAMMY and Blues Music Awards.

Lyrics:
… For all the things I never said
I’m sorry that I never did
I thank you for your precious time
For teaching me how to climb

… I love you more than summertime
You’ve been such a good friend of mine
And every sacred word is true
I learned to love because of you and

… Oh mama I saw the world
And it was good
And full of kindness
Every step I took you held my hand
And watched me grow
You’ll never know
How much I love you
And I am not afraid, I’m not afraid
I finally grew
Mama this one’s for you

… You always look beyond the dark
You told me joy lives in the heart
And life is what you make of it
Make sure to cherish every bit and

… Oh mama I saw the world
And it was good
And full if kindness
Every step I took you held my hand
And watched me grow
You’ll never know
How much I love you
And I am not afraid, I’m not afraid
I finally grew
Mama this one’s for you
You, you, you
Mama this one’s for you
You, you, you
Mama this one’s for you
