About the song 40 Days

Raina’s latest single “40 Days” is a subtly complex story about a struggle to let go due to an unhealthy attachment, “I fought for you when I knew it wasn’t right.” It’s hard to let go and it’s especially hard to let go of people who have hurt you. At the core of “40 Days” is the desire to let go and live in expansive harmony. Community, shared truth and recognition set us free. 

Here at Fromgirltogirl.com we like that “40 Days” is soulful and romantic, which captivates us from start to finish as Raina’s smoky, sensual vocals glide over the soundtrack.
