I've seen the "Dear Ol Dad" thread...how can we leave out Mom?
Let me start off by nominating 5 off of the top of my head...
1) "I'll Always Love My Mama" - Intruders
2) "A Song For Mama" - Boys II Men
3) "Mama Said Knock You Out" - LL Cool J
4) "I Saw Mommie Kissing Santa Clause" - Jackson 5
5) and my favorite: "Mama, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys" - Waylon Jennings & Willie Nelson

The first 2 are dedicated to my Mom who passed away on November 23, 2002. God Bless You, Mom.

Alan
