Norwegian singer Maria Mena broke through as a teenager in her home country, but conquered the rest of Europe in 2006 with the single "Just Hold Me ." Her fragile, melodic pop music is especially popular in the Netherlands; she reached the top ten with "All This Time (Pick-Me-Up Song) ."
In 2023, she released her eighth studio album , And Then Came You , a record full of captivating pop songs about rediscovering faith in love.
