Here is the story behind the new happy pop single Maini Sorri – Tomorrow  A local newspaper in Maini’s old home town in Finland interviewed her for 15 years ago. Many years later the interviewer Marjo Pajuranta surprised Maini by sending a poem to her and asking her to compose it. Because the poem was in Finnish, Maini wrote English lyrics to it with the title “Tomorrow”. The Finnish original version “Kauneimmat muistot” (Beautiful Memories) is included as #2 on the single).

Maini could not record in the studio for 1,5 years because of the covid19 pandemic. It is fantastic that she finally could record new music studio and release the new single “Tomorrow” on November 11th 2021. Label is Reya music, Sweden. Instrumental by Jaakko Viitala.

Maini‘s rock single I Fall To Pieces got excellent reviews. Rick Jamm from London writes in Jamsphere Magazine:

“Like all of Maini recordings, “I Fall To Pieces” proves to be an extremely rewarding listen as its internal complexities unfold…As usual Maini once again shows that she is at the top of her game vocally. The song’s musical and lyrical thoughts are delivered in the clearest manner they could ever be”. Read the whole review here

Brett Stewart, Chicago, Tilting Windmill Studios writes: “Sorri’s vocals are solid, as usual…I’d actually align her vocal style to that of Yoko Ono. I mean that as a compliment, too…Sorri’s typical pop sensibility is infused into ‘I Fall To Pieces’ as well, and it’s a catchy tune.”Read the whole review here

Bree Morcroft, freelance writer from Melbourne, Australia writes: “After a slow-building, atmospheric introduction, ‘I Fall To Pieces’ explodes into a slightly unexpected, but pleasing bright burst of pop goodness the moment the vocal kicks in.” Read the whole review here

Bradley Rust, freelance writer from Sydney, Australia writes: “Maini follows up the impressive collaboration single ‘Second Chance’ with a new single of her own. To start with, my first vibe is a little Nightwish style from the opening 30 seconds before the pace eases a little and her voice takes centre stage”. Read the whole review here

More more sound writes: “I Fall To Pieces” is a truly stunning track with a rock edge that feels emotional and fragile, yet uplifting and direct, highlighting Maini’s strong ability to turn touching personal stories into amazing melodies with a purpose”. Read the whole review here
