"Mama Lover" is a song by Russian group Serebro, which has been released as the lead single from their second studio album of the same name. The song was written by member Olga Seryabkina and co-written and produced by Maxim Fadeev. It was released on September 15, 2011 by Monolit Records and Ego. "Mama Lover" received positive reviews from music critics, praising the catchiness and fun vibe towards the song. Commercially, the song is one of the group's most successful charting singles, peaking in countries including Russia, Italy, Belgium, Latvia, Czech Republic and Spain.
The music video was released on September 15, 2011 as an exclusive of Ello.com. The music video received critical acclaim from many critics, noting the simplicity of the video and the girls for being edgy and provocative. "Mama Lover" is considered Serebro's most popular song, since it has been featured in a lot of press releases.
"Mama Lover" is Serebro's eighth single. The single was originally released on August 8, 2011. However, when it was announced that a music video was going to be released, a Russian release was also announced. There are two official versions; the English version and the Russian version. Both versions were released as a digital download.
"Mama Lover" is Serebro's most popular single to date, having been featured in different press releases around the world. Diana Guglielmini said about the single, "And their single Mama Lover is the new summer hit: a song first released in August 2011 but that only just arrived in Italy. The video is currently a huge hit all over the Internet because the three girls, scantily clad and showing quite the erotic attitude are really easy on the eyes. That's why the younger generation- although not exclusively- is having way more fun watching the video than listening to this new hit." She then continued saying, "[The] Serebro are extremely close to capturing markets outside of Russia as well."
An Italian magazine wrote that the single reached 20 million views on YouTube and there are already more than 250 parodies of the single being performed. The song is also the group's first single to be released on iTunes.
