“Just Let Me Sing”, perfectly encapsulates the project’s thesis. Maini Sorri has an unerring ear for pop hooks, and she’s a strong songwriter, which allows the song to flow naturally with effortless ease. The music is built around an organic foundation of shimmering guitars – both acoustic and electric – and airtight percussion.

The music matches her gorgeously mellifluous vocals. The song is nestled in brightly colored tones, which highlights Maini’s formidable talents as a top-shelf tunesmith and songstress.

Maini Sorri and her collaborators have created a joyous track that will pull you into a good mood. Filled with a great melody, a catchy rhythm, solid lyrics, and strong vocals, “Just Let Me Sing” is a sincere effort from the singer-songwriter. Maini’s voice is warm and feels like a hug when she starts to sing.

The reason I believe that “Just Let Me Sing” is good, is because of Maini Sorri voice alone. There are no mistimed vocal inflections, nor weird phrasing that jeopardizes the simplicity of the track or feel annoying. Moreover, there is a sense of confidence and potent songwriting that sticks out and does not seem to be let go. The straightforward, from the heart lyrics, and very good organic instrumentation simply lends to the song’s strengths.

In every song Maini Sorri performs, her unique voice shines through, but this particular song shows a more natural, yet expanded version of her range. “Just Let Me Sing” is the type of song I would play with the volume up and the windows down in my car.

Although it’s under 3 minutes long, the track still provided me with a big enough boost of serotonin throughout the entirety of its duration. “Just Let Me Sing” dispenses Maini Sorri’s unconditional joy magnificently.
