+ | |content=[[File:Raconteurs many shades of black.png|150px|right|link=]]'''"Many Shades of Black"''' is a song by the band [[The Raconteurs]]. It appears as the eighth track on their second album, Consolers of the Lonely. It is also the second single from the album and was made available in 7" vinyl format. The cover art depicts Mary Todd Lincoln or Abraham Lincoln depending on the way the inner sleeve is turned. The track is also available as downloadable content for the music video game Rock Band 2. The release of the single contains a version of the song performed by British soul singer [[Adele]]. Adele has performed this song live several times, including during [[An Evening with Adele|her tour]], and it was included on the deluxe edition of her album [[19]]. The Adele version was featured in the ending of the 90210 episode, "Wild Alaskan Salmon" (episode 6, season 2). It also appeared as the first track on the 90210 soundtrack. The song peaked at number 37 on the U.S. Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart. |
+ | Following Adele's collaboration with The Raconteurs, it almost resulted in future collaborations between Adele and the band's lead singer Jack White on Adele's sophomore album [[21]], however, Adele stated they never got around to finishing collaborations they had planned in 2009 following the [[Grammy Awards]]. |
||
− | It was the first song written for 21 and upon entering into the studio together, Adele and Eg White had intended to write a song similar to "Chasing Pavements", and although Adele wasn't sure she wanted to write another "Chasing Pavements", the two managed to come up with "Take It All", a ballad that consisted only of piano and vocals and was quite different from "Chasing Pavements". Adele stated about the song that she wrote it about the man who inspired 21 and a few days after writing it, she performed it for him, and he broke up with her two weeks later, sparking the inspiration for the record. |
