Does this mean that McCartney is actually Jesus?

I think Mary is not an uncommon name for mothers and others.

Miracle: Macca's Mom = Mary!

Yes, it's about his actual mother, whose name was Mary, and who died in the 50s.

Catholic woman called Mary, never heard the like.

When asked if the phrase "Mother Mary" in the song referred to the mother of Jesus, McCartney has typically replied that listeners can interpret the song however they like.

--Wikipedia

well, that settles it. He is Jesus.

Pretty sure he thinks he's more talented and worthy of love and respect than that.

That was miraculously quick, forks.

its the only thing i'm good at! maybe not, but some days it feels like it.

yeah amazing playlist, quite a hunting expedition

Just two days ago I was listening to a Philly Soul compilation when "Only the Strong Survive" came on, and I started thinking about how many songs involved what somebody's mama said. Quite a few, as it turns out.

i think another hundred should be easy to come by; i appreciate that people are posting interesting and/or well-known songs instead of just googling up a list.
