Maisyn’s latest track “I Hurt Too” is perfect if are ready to blast the music, open the windows, and let all of your bottled-up emotions burst out. The song is a melody-driven cuddle for anybody who has ever experienced the ups and down feelings of a yo-yo in their chest.
From the very first note of the bass, you know you’re in for something different. Maisyn doesn’t waste any time – from the offset, she grabs the listener’s ear and heart as she tells of a romantic loss with her crystalline voice. Undeniably, it’s cathartic—singing along as if one were the star of her very own breakup flick.
This is the song you open up with when you are driving away from a toxic relationship and going towards a brighter future. Add in powerful, infectious melodies with a rock edge, and it’s near impossible for this not to become a go-to on your post-breakup playlist. Maisyn herself referred to the song as “the comeback you wish you could have had in the heat of the moment”. Her lyrics are just as introspective as they are self-empowering, trailing the journey of self-discovery that often comes through heartache.
This was a very powerful reminder: It’s okay to be hurt, but it is also okay to demand better for yourself.
“I Hurt Too!” exemplifies life’s ups and downs. Maisyn keeps on keeping that open book that began on a journey only now, side by side with Grammy-nominated producer Joey Messina-Doerning.
Maisyn is a master at navigating the many subgenres of indie-pop while creating a distinctively unique sound all her own. Even though you might be struggling right now from a breakup, you’ll emerge out stronger than before if you have this anthem on your side.
