"Maybe Tomorrow" was a hit song recorded by American soul family quintet, The Jackson 5, in 1971.
The ballad was originally supposed to have been sung (possibly in a different production) by Sammy Davis, Jr. but for various reasons, the entertainer couldn't get on the schedule to do the song and the song was then given to the Jackson 5. The peaked at number-three on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart, and at number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100.
"Maybe Tomorrow" was included on the Jackson 5's album of the same title, and was later sampled by rapper Ghostface Killah on his 1996 rap "ballad" "All I've Got is You".
"Maybe Tomorrow" is the second single released by New Zealand band Goldenhorse from their debut album, Riverhead. The song has a laid-back guitar based tune, and is a song about how that "maybe tomorrow, all of your sorrow ...will fade away into the air". The music video features the band members around several Auckland beaches.
