Mother and Father

about this song

“Mother and Father” is the ninth track from Madonna’s ninth studio album American Life, released in 2003. It was written and produced by Madonna and Mirwais Ahmadzaï. Like she did in many songs before (such as “Mer Girl”, “Promise To Try” and “Oh Father”) Madonna struggles with the feelings towards the premature loss of her mother and the relationship with her father. She said: "'Mother and Father' is a way of freeing myself from suffering because of my mother’s death
