Clouds (Silver Lining)

'Clouds (Silver Lining)' is a song recorded by singer-songwriter Ashley! and is the third track and title track on her third album Silver Lining. In August 2013 it was released exclusively as a promotional single, two weeks prior to the album release on August 19th and one week prior to the lead single (Light Up The World's) release.

Originally considered to be released as the albums lead single, it was decided it was too similar to Light Up The World for them to both be singles, so it was decided the Crystal Barker track would go forward to launch the album campaign. The track was written by Ashley Roberts and produced by Max Martin and is described as a 'pop anthem for the summer' and lyrically takes inspiration from the people who look at life with a negative stance, with Ashley encouraging people to open up and find the silver lining in the things they do, because with the bad, comes the good.

Upon release, the song gained very positive reviews across the board, with many stating it was 'an uplifting and refreshing song'. Upon 'download only' release, the song charted at  , selling     digital copies.
