Not only was it a geographical and temporal journey but also a musical one. Though most of all, it was a sentimental one, since the 14 songscarefully chosen for this album are so precious to her because of the memories they contain. Almost all are taken from film soundtracks, from \"Everybody's Talkin'\"from\u003ci\u003eMidnight Cowboy\u003c\/i\u003eto \"Take My Breath Away\" from\u003ci\u003eTop Gun\u003c\/i\u003e, you find \"Pure Imagination\" from\u003ci\u003eCharlie and the Chocolate Factory\u003c\/i\u003eas well as \"Here On My Own\" from\u003ci\u003eFame\u003c\/i\u003e. All of them possess an unique power to evoke an emotion through their music that has shaped her identity, helped overcome trials, and bloom as an artist. Thus, it's no surprise to hear, in the voice of Malia, sometimes even within the same song, the little girl, the teenager, the woman, and also, as if through a fascinating act of vocal transmigration, the soul of those who are no longer with us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike before, she entrusted the instrumental part to a trio comprising pianist\u003cstrong\u003eAlexandre Saada\u003c\/strong\u003e, bassist\u003cstrong\u003eJean-Daniel Botta\u003c\/strong\u003eand drummer\u003cstrong\u003eLaurent Series\u003c\/strong\u003e, with whom Malia has collaborated since\u003ci\u003eBlack Orchid\u003c\/i\u003e.
