Fun facts
Mama is a word that sounds familiar, but in science it has a more specific meaning. It refers to those protrusions that some female mammals have, such as women, elephants, or certain primates. That is where milk is produced, and it is surrounded by fatty tissue and ducts that carry it. It is a system that is seen in various species, but in humans it is called mama.

The story behind
Mary MacGregor released a song called Mama that lasts 3:19. It was part of her first album, Torn Between Two Lovers, released in 1976. The album was produced and partially written by Peter Yarrow. The song became a hit, reaching the top of pop and adult contemporary charts. It also appeared on the country chart. The song was promoted with three singles that reached both charts. Robert Christgau's review in his 70s record guide gave it a "C" rating, but noted it was significant that Yarrow's first commercial success of the year was a song that reminded him of Olivia Newton-John.
