Maria Lawson的容貌并不出众，但她却有一个被上帝吻过的嗓音。Maria Lawson 30岁才开始起步出专辑，正如她说的：“时间能将一个女人的声音变得完美。”的确，经过了时间的积淀，Maria Lawson的声音里有着一个成熟女人的魅力，饱含深情且不矫作。Maria Lawson以她成熟的声音，表达着真实的情感，于是使音乐旋律变得更加动人。Maria Lawson 现在是英国超红的女星，这也许来得有点晚，在她的新专辑的封面，Maria Lawson仰望的眼神，是在怀念那些已经逝去的年轻的岁月，还是表达着梦想终于成真时的感伤？

Maria Lawson 来自一个满是女艺术家的优秀的家庭，这些女艺术家们好强、不妥协、而且正直诚实。当Maria 30岁的时候才开始起步出专辑的时候，她却对此无一点悔恨。“时间能将一个女人的声音变得完美”，Maria 说，那些被Maria 称为给她人生带来最大的影响的女艺术家们，在Maria 看来有着超越舞动的身体和涂着闪光口红的嘴唇的力量，“TinaTuner， Cher， Whitney， Gabrielle， 你能从她们的声音中感受到饱经岁月的洗礼，和很多真实感人的东西。”

成名曲 《Black Mona Lisa 》

But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian

I can paint a portrait of myself

I will call me a black Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa

Come to discover - I am your daughter

The sky above me is silent and empty

I am an island

A little freak of melancholy

But these hands

They unbead your rosary of wisdom

Bewitched, spellbound I'm found

And returned from superstition

You are my martyr

I'm a vestige of a revolution

My alma, my mater

And now I can let go

My old addictive solutions

CHORUS

I used to be a connoisseur

Of hate, self hate, paternal hate

Hate cum gratis

I connected every kind

Sipping it like red wine

The insecurity was mine

The ties that bind were

My design

But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian

The sun is still unkind

To those like you and me

Seekers of sanctuary

Though I'm not afraid

I'm sanctified and fortified

Because you sacrified

I can call myself Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa

Men have adored you

But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian

I can paint a portrait of myself

I will call me a black Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa

Come to discover - I am your daughter

The sky above me is silent and empty

I am an island

A little freak of melancholy

But these hands

They unbead your rosary of wisdom

Bewitched, spellbound I'm found

And returned from superstition

You are my martyr

I'm a vestige of a revolution

My alma, my mater

And now I can let go

My old addictive solutions

CHORUS

I used to be a connoisseur

Of hate, self hate, paternal hate

Hate cum gratis

I connected every kind

Sipping it like red wine

The insecurity was mine

The ties that bind were

My design

But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian

The sun is still unkind

To those like you and me

Seekers of sanctuary

Though I'm not afraid

I'm sanctified and fortified

Because you sacrified

I can call myself Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa

Men have adored you

But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian

I can paint a portrait of myself

I will call me a black Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa

Come to discover - I am your daughter

The sky above me is silent and empty

I am an island

A little freak of melancholy

But these hands
