Maria Lawson的容貌並不出眾,但她卻有一個被上帝吻過的嗓音。Maria Lawson 30歲才開始起步出專輯,正如她說的:“時間能將一個女人的聲音變得完美。”的確,經過了時間的積澱,Maria Lawson的聲音里有著一個成熟女人的魅力,飽含深情且不矯作。Maria Lawson以她成熟的聲音,表達著真實的情感,於是使音樂旋律變得更加動人。Maria Lawson 現在是英國超紅的女星,這也許來得有點晚,在她的新專輯的封面,Maria Lawson仰望的眼神,是在懷念那些已經逝去的年輕的歲月,還是表達著夢想終於成真時的感傷?Maria Lawson 來自一個滿是女藝術家的優秀的家庭,這些女藝術家們好強、不妥協、而且正直誠實。當Maria 30歲的時候才開始起步出專輯的時候,她卻對此無一點悔恨。“時間能將一個女人的聲音變得完美”,Maria 說,那些被Maria 稱為給她人生帶來最大的影響的女藝術家們,在Maria 看來有著超越舞動的身體和塗著閃光口紅的嘴唇的力量,“TinaTuner, Cher, Whitney, Gabrielle, 你能從她們的聲音中感受到飽經歲月的洗禮,和很多真實感人的東西。”
