- Not to be confused with Black Or White (つぅ Song).
"Black Or White" is a song by Fernando Bonini under the alias Nando. Produced in 2002, it made its first album appearance in "Super Eurobeat Vol. 136" on March 19, 2003; followed by being released alongside other three songs ("Da Burning Tokyo" by Tokyo Future, "Face To Face" by Oda and "Power Of Desperation" by Dr. Love) in a vinyl maxi-single published by Avex Trax that year. The song was written by Simone Coen, composed by Giordano Foglia and produced by Andrea Leonardi, under his alias Bratt Sinclaire.
Due to Leonardi's dismissal from Delta, since 2008 the song's license has been transferred to SinclaireStyle together with many other songs produced and/or written by Andrea Leonardi at Delta.
Lyrics[]
[Intro]
(Black Or White!) (ouh, ouh)
(We will fight!) (ouh, ouh)
(Wrong or right!) (ouh, ouh)
(Day and night!) (ouh, ouh)
(Ouh, ouh)
(Ouh, ouh)
(Ouh, ouh)
(Ouh, ouh)
[Verse 1]
Here we are, living on the edge of the world
Here we are, trying hard to save our soul
So here we are, feeling nothing can stop this war
Fighting, running, kicking people to the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
But sometime's hard to say if we are
Losing, winning, how can you tell?
Be right or wrong
Reality seems to be made up of different shades of grey
[Chorus - Repeat Twice]
Life is...
Black Or White! (ouh, ouh)
You have to choose your side
We will fight! (ouh, ouh)
No matter if it's
Wrong or right! (ouh, ouh)
We'll ride the lighting
Day and night
Until we will be winning
[Verse 2]
Here we are, feeling right on top of the world
Here we are, feeling mean right to the core
So here we are, asking for an end to this war
Hear the enemy is knocking on the door
