Shades Of Gray

The Monkees

Transposer:

Shades Of Gray:The Monkees. Album - Headquarters - #1 on BB Hot 100 on COLGEMS Records in 1967. INTRO: #1. When the world and I were young just yesterday. Life was such a simple game a child could play. It was easy then to tell right from wrong. Easy then to tell weak from strong. When a man should stand and fight or just go along. CHORUS: But today there is no day or night. Today there is no dark or light. Today there is no black or white only shades of gray. #2. I remember when the answers seemed so clear. We had never lived with doubt or tasted fear. It was easy then to tell truth from lies..selling out from compromise. Who to love and who to hate the foolish from the wise. CHORUS: But today there is no day or night. Today there is no dark or light. Today there is no black or white only shades of gray. INTERLUDE: .. #3. It was easy then to know what was fair when to keep and when to share. How much to protect your heart and how much to care. CHORUS: But today there is no day or night. Today there is no dark or light. Today there is no black or white only shades of gray. OUTRO: Only shades of gray..(Fade.) A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.

Cette chanson évoque la perte de simplicité et de clarté dans le monde moderne, où les certitudes d'autrefois ne semblent plus existantes. L'artiste se souvient d’une époque où tout était simple, où il était facile de distinguer le bien du mal, la vérité du mensonge. Aujourd'hui, tout semble embrouillé, les choix sont plus difficiles à faire, et les nuances de gris remplacent les oppositions tranchées de jadis. Dans ce contexte, les paroles reflètent une nostalgie pour des temps plus simples, tout en soulignant l'incertitude et les complexités de la vie contemporaine. L'idée de vivre dans un monde où les réponses ne sont plus aussi claires invite à la réflexion sur notre propre perception de la réalité.
