- This song is a single from Laleh's fifth album Colors.
I had a talk with the shadow and the light
fighting for me
they said put your tricks aside
and for once believe
how can I, I don't
I never did, I don't know how to
but when it's not enough to fight for me
I'm gonna wanna live and fight for you
just because it's black in the dark
doesn't mean there's no color
just because it's black in the dark
doesn't mean there's no color
I had a talk with the shadow and the light
oh, oh, looking at me
they said put your reason aside
and for once believe
how can I, I don't
I never did, I don't know how to
and if I ever stop believing in me
I know I always can believe in you
I pulled up my roots from the bottom I was caught in
I was caught in
and I had a talk with the shadow and the light
fighting for me

Laleh got the idea for this video when filmmaker Maceo Frost showed her a dance project, that he was involved in, to Laleh. The dance project is called HOLD, choreographed & directed by Erik Linghede. In this video Laleh, together with Erik and the amazing dancers Anton Borgström and Robin Sundberg, built the idea on "the shadow and the light fighting for me" as said in lyrics of the song. One of the dancers wears black clothes and the other one white, to portray a battle between light and darkness. The choreography is based on contact improvisation, popping and modern dance.
Laleh says:
As a musician, it has been incredibly fulfilling and above all absolutely wonderful to get to know the dancers and learn more about myself. We have tried to find a tone that neither leans against seduction or plastic, no, we have instead been looking for that other element that is so hard to find and portray. I hope we succeeded this time, but I will continue to explore more in future projects. Dance is magical.
Director: Laleh & Maceo Frost
DoP/Editing: Maceo Frost

I've just discovered this Swedish artist, and the more of her videos that I watch the more of a fan I'm becoming.
are her songs made from heaven? Why do I feel strangely in peace whenever I listen to her voice?
shouldnt it be ''there are no colours?''
Came here because of Colours, from Brooklynn Prince!!
From Nelly Rapp then iam came here,,, nice song 🙏👏
My sis gets extremely mad when she heres this song, she keeps on telling me that this song is the most stupid song ever but I LOVE it
I'm Predada Severa, the Beyondabovedeepblack Director of the real illuminati, we who created existence from the nothingness, and protect all that is good. This song is beyondabovedeepexcellent. If you've ever had something in your life occur, for example, something that you needed to hear, in order to make the tears flow, undepress you, and spark an epiphany, this song, it's words, are it. Thank you Laleh, from all of we Anunnaki, etc.. Um, know this is ten years late, but just heard the song a while ago in "Nelly Rapp: Monster Agent"; another work of excellence that needs sequels. Please continue to spread love, and stay safe out there, because the real monsters are the ones who aren't, and aren't like what everyone is taught they are, and are like.

Watch her live and everything falls in place. She is fantastic
live
Masterpiece 🙌🏼
I’ve been looking for this song for SEVEN YEARS. I heard it in Victorias Secret with my mom when I was seven and I loved it and was sad when it was over. I tried to find this song ever since but when I would type the lyrics or word color I still couldn’t find it. But now I finally have and it feels like I’ve found a long lost friend. This feels great. My first time hearing it after that first time long ago. Magical 🖤
She's too good for Eurovision. People don't understand her kind of art!
Colors med Laleh, en sång som för mig påminner om att livet är så fyllt av vackra färger trots att det är mörkt ute ibland.
Your songs touch my soul...poetry to the heart. Thank you so much for sharing your gift with the world<3
Laleh du är så fruktansvärt bra. Vilken artist du är!!
man blir ju så himla glad när man hör och ser laleh...vilken tjej
So happy I could see this video again in my country, it's beautiful :)
Could not stop having goosebumbs!! This song is just perfect
En av de bästa arrangemang jag har hört (Colors) och det vill inte säga lite. Text och rytm, melodi och variation. Den har allt!
This is currently on repeat - cool Scandinavian performance...
