From here, she will move forward, and many new opportunities will come her way. I truly feel she will go far. And to her fans-I just want to say, support her wholeheartedly. " Shedding light on the theme of the song- simplicity, the singer added, "Absolutely. When I was writing this song, I never imagined that I would approach Mona Lisa or even speak to her family about doing this project. A long time ago, I was sitting alone one night and had this thought-what if a girl stands in front of a mirror and the mirror says to her, "You are so beautiful, you don't need to dress up." That thought stayed with me. "
