Lyrics

The clouds up in the sky are several shades of grey
I need to find the words you wanted me to say
And even now the land is dark and overcast
I'm dreaming of a brighter future

Does it seem to you, I always take this tone
Should I check for rain again? Are we all alone?
Does it seem to you, I'm lost and starry eyed
Should I keep on waiting here, looking for a bluer sky
Looking for a bluer sky
Looking for a bluer sky

Fracus

'Shades Of Grey' is supposed to be a very positive track, the lyrics and chord progression are supposed to be quite 'empowering' for the listener.
Donna has such a deep emotion in her voice and we wanted to create a track that contains as much of that uplifting 'happy hardcore' vibe as possible, whilst keeping the nature of the music itself and the production very much on a 21st century tip.
The piano is different to the usual hyper-fast patterns usually employed in music of this style, we wanted to show how musical hardcore can be without losing that 'ravey' edge and danceable lead line.

The harmony of trance-synths and vocals makes this song irresistible. This track has a deep evolving rhythm, and its piano break-down grabs the listener's heart as its tension propels them forward. Truly a work of art, there is no doubt that it will get everyone moving on the dance floor.
