As this is BE who cares about anything other than the UK one? Only the Brits call it Mothering Sunday. To everyone else it is Mothers' Day.

More seriously.............. one of the best sings one of his best.

People misunderstood this when it came out, but gradually it dawned on everyone that he was singing about the inadequacies of men, their inability to cope with everything that life throws at them, and so on.......

Women of course just cope. Full stop. End of. My mother remains one of my heroes, for all sorts of reasons............
