Peter Fox reports back with "Future Pink
In terms of solo work, it had been a bit quiet around Peter Fox for a while. Now the singer is back with his new song. It is called "Future Pink" and can be seen as a kind of statement for a colorful world.
The video for "Future Pink" was released last Thursday. Even for the die-hard Peter Fox fans this might have seemed a little "spontaneous". Because: A great announcement about the fact that something new is coming up again, there was not.
The video went viral all the faster and was discussed extensively on social networks, among other places. More and more music fans wanted to see the latest work from Fox. Whether the song will soon be followed by a new album is (still) unclear.
However, it is already certain that Peter Fox will be at the start of various festivals in 2023.
What is "Future Pink" about?
At a time when many are worried about the challenges ahead, "Future Pink" certainly seems very optimistic. The song is danceable and exudes good humor. Fox sings, among other things, that everyone paints black, but he sees the future as pink. The line "Alles wird gut mein Kind" shows that it's not too late to believe in a better future, even nowadays.
And if you listen to the music lyrics, Peter Fox already seems to have precise ideas about how this pink future could be shaped. Among other things, he sings "Black, White, Straight, Gay / Love for all and for myself".
A great message towards the community, whose visibility is increased once again with this song. Once again, the singer Inéz Schaefer is part of the band. She sings the female voice in "Future Pink" and provides an interesting contrast to Fox's lines.
A video in classic Peter Fox style
The video for "Future Pink" was once again shot in Berlin. The backgrounds seem uninviting. Among other things, images of backyards, industry and big city are shown.
But it is precisely this environment that the protagonists of the video do not let spoil their good mood. On the contrary! They also dance happily to the sounds of "Future Pink". In addition, the sounds "Because we are the future / I see the future pink".
Whether the song also contains a small side blow to the world of the Internet, everyone must certainly decide for themselves. At least the singer fights in the video with an android that looks like himself. He explains that he "killed" his avatar "because I want to go to the party myself.
"Future Pink" has been well received so far
Many fans of the singer learned about the release of the song via newsletter. It didn't take long for them to vent their enthusiasm on Twitter, among other places. Several comments show that there seem to be parallels to Fox's first album. Those who appreciated the sounds of that time and the singer's characteristic style should also feel well entertained with "Future Pink".
And even if Peter Fox is of course also celebrated when he's on the road with his band: solo, the artist is obviously also indispensable for his followers. At the latest when it comes to embellishing the fall and winter with some positive vibes, some might feel especially addressed by "Future Pink".
