As s little girl I sang this to my mom all the time. I"m 79 now and she's gone now and I still find my self singing it to her when I miss her and the times we shared together. Everyone loved her and caller her Nonnie, Miss you mom.

[Featureman]

@CarolJGarrett Thanks. Mom is very special.

You put a lot of feeling in that old 1915 song. I used to sing it for my mom when I took care of her before she died. I miss her more than ever now. Thank you for honoring mothers. I called my mom, my "wonderful one" after one of her favorite songs from the early 1920s..

[Featureman]

Thank you. Moms are special.

Hey there Tom.

I was just watching your videos again and if you don't mind... which is the 2nd picture of you? I saw that one which seems to have been taken in the 80s,am I right? What is the 2nd one?

Thanks and great video.

[Featureman]

Hey, Alex. The picture right after the picture of myself and my mom is a picture of my Aunt Sally and her four sons. All four boys were serving during WWII. The president, Franklin D Roosevelt found out all her sons were serving and he intervened and sent one home. Joe, who is second from left was later badly wounded in the war but he is the only son still alive today. I have had that picture since I was about 3 years old. Thanks.

[devangelis]

BEAUTIFUL classic photographs!

[Featureman]

Thanks. I chose them from the selection at the Library of Congress.

I think of this song on Mother's Day and I even think of my own Mother who died 16 years ago in June 1993 and I loved her very much.

[Featureman]

Yes. Mom's are very special. This song has been one of my favorites since I first heard it many years ago.

[dabiribd]

Beautiful

[Featureman]

Thank you so much. I hope everyone who views this will visit your channel and watch your piano playing videos. You are great.

[NostromX]

I lost my mom to cancer 7 years ago. I miss her more than anything in this world. Mother's day is coming up. Be good to your mom if you still have one. 5* Featureman as always.

[Featureman]

Thanks. Sorry to hear of your mother's passing.

[frasierfreak92]

i was really holding back the tear watching this, reminded me of so many people. But on the upside, i think your voice soothed my throat infection

[Featureman]

Thank you. I wish you a speedy recovery. The pictures do tell a story. Moms are very special.

[matthewlombartmusic]

Thank you for this video, Tom :-)

Not only are you great on the guitar but you're also very skilled on the keyboard and you sing this beautifully -

can't wait to hear more of your tunes!

[Featureman]

Thanks, Matthew. I am one of your biggest fans. I hope to perform maybe a million more videos before I retire. I hope you will also do that many.

[BigLon]

Good song Featureman.

Pretty sad though.

Those were some awful

tough times back then.

[jojobrandy]

That was special...Especially for those of us that have lost our Mothers...Thanks for sharing...

[Featureman]

Thank you.

[Featureman]

Hi, It is good to hear from you again. Thanks for the kind words. I will try to post some more videos soon with some various content. Good luck with everything and stay in touch.

[hunterveure]

Hey

[cyberwanderer]

Really touching. When they finally get Heaven wired and online, I'm vid-sharing this with my mom, for sure. (She's gonna love it.)

(Same with your mom, Tom! When Heaven goes online, Ma Willet is gonna check up and be saying, 'Oh, look at what my Tommy has gotten himself up to, now! Calling himself Featureman! He was always such a showman. And what's this? 'I Want More Porn?' Oh dear...! Wait, oh, it's a parody song. Well, isn't my Tommy Boy being the rascal, once again.) =)

[Featureman]

Thanks. It is wonderful that each new technology brings opportunities to remember some of the happiness of the past, even during the hard times. Thanks again.

[medicinesocks]

still photos can be so moving...

thanks for this little gem tom. i confess i'm wiping away tears now.

[Featureman]

Thanks. I must confess I did not use some pictures because they were too moving. These seem to capture much of the hard work mothers do and have done throughout the ages regardless of the economy. Thanks again.

[rpbraziliansinger]

Beautiful video! Nice photos and great singing and playing!

[Featureman]

Thanks a lot, Rafael.

[moomay11649]

This vid SHOULD be featured.  Great footage.

[Featureman]

Thanks.

[Schratchey]

I surely hope to see this vid featured!

[Featureman]

Thanks. I was surprised to see so few Mother's Day videos here at YouTube. I thought there would be a lot left over from last year. It is only three weeks away. Thanks again.

[travisdt]

which ones are you Tom? All I see are cute kids. lOL

[Featureman]

I am just in the one color picture with my mother who since has passed away. The photo that follows that is my aunt with her four sons. She raised them by herself after her husband died. All of the boys were in the service in WWII.

[tunisianswife]

beautiful video, Tom. I always love to hear you sing and play, and the photos were great. Glad they are preserved in the LOC. they really capture that era. Susan

[Featureman]

Thanks, Susan. There are many thousands of pictures there at loc. I chose just a few but there are 160,000 black and white and 16,000 color pictures from that time period.

[monello198]

[Featureman]

May 11, 2008 will be Mother's Day officially. Every day is mother's day. Thanks.
