1987년 정규앨범 [Cross My Palm] 수록곡, 모던 우먼
이 앨범은 해외 작사,작곡가들한테 곡을 받아서 전곡이 영어로 되어있는데, 수록곡 중에서 가장 평가가 좋은 게 바로 이 노래..
아키나의 속삭이는 창법과 목소리가 진짜 최고ㅠㅠㅠ
Symbol of the times
Modern woman
Throwing off the chains
Of history
Standing for the things
She believes in
Trusting in herself
Her feelings
Making her own plans
For the future
Dreaming her own dreams
Can come true
*
See how she shines
A beacon in the night
One step ahead
To meet the morning light
The modern woman
The modern woman
Making the most
Of her new liberty
She can be anything
She wants to be
The modern woman
The modern woman
Only flesh and blood
Modern woman
Passion is her strength
Her weakness
Love may rule her heart
But none can measure
Just how deep her pain
The pleasure
What lies behind
The veil of mystery
Lover or friend
Or stranger, or all three?
The modern woman
The modern woman
She had the power
To shape her destiny
To give herself
A new identity
The modern woman
The modern woman
Somehow she keeps
Her femininity
Making her world
A better place to live
The modern woman
The modern woman
