Finnish singer and songwriter Minna Ora has just released her seventh solo single “Rock”.
The song builds around one simple idea: “I will stand right beside you just like a rock.” That line becomes the anchor for everything else happening in the track.
Minna’s vocal carries real weight here. She’s not holding back. The bass sits deep in the mix. Moreover, it grounds everything, while the drums lock into this tight rhythm that just pulls you forward. Then sharp guitar riffs come in and give the whole thing a proper rock edge. It’s got a hypnotic quality that keeps you listening.
The song also captures a conversation between a parent and child, offering reassurance while acknowledging gratitude. It’s about being steady for someone when everything around you keeps shifting. About love, accepting yourself, and understanding where your boundaries are.
The music video features Finnish actresses Outi Mäenpää and Ella Valanne, and it takes you back to a time before screens took over everything. Back when people actually had to show up for each other because there wasn’t another option. The video leans into themes of connection, belonging, and what gets passed down between generations.
