About this song
Jordan Fish has described "mother tongue" as the spiritual successor to "Drown." The song was written as a love song for Alissa Salls, Oliver Sykes' wife, and it is connected to the album amo, which is a concept album about love. The track's title comes from the Portuguese that appears in it, Salls' first language, as she is Brazilian. A music video for the song was released on May 9th, showing a love story with a supernatural twist.
What it's about
The song is an emotional love song dedicated to Sykes' wife. The music video compares the couple's relationship to a supernova, with the chaos around them representing the struggle before they settle into peace and love.
