Song[edit]

The song opens with an exotic-sounding flute, subdued verses and a soaring chorus. Some Indonesian spoken parts are heard. Anggun said that "A Rose in the Wind" was her favourite on the album: "It's my real story. It's the most personal song in terms of melody and a perfect example of what you find between Indonesia and the culture here [the West]. Lyrically, it's something in which you can find the different faces of me, of a woman, the weak, the strong, the things that frighten me, my dreams. This is so personal".^[1]
