The Indie/Synth Rock Band, Clear Vision, have released their second single for their debut album, Crystal Clear today. The title, "(Every Day) The Sun Shines (A Little Bit Less)". When asked about the creation of the single, frontman Blaine Johnson had this to say.

"The song was kinda a last minute thing we made. Our producers and some of our friends/family were helping us and watching us record the album. We thought we did everthing. Then, during [our] break, Chris [Hadri] was just....randomly playing on a guitar. Then he played this one little chord progression, and I asked him 'who wrote that?' and he said 'I just thought of it. I think it's kinda cool.' So I decided to take that chord progression and use it in another demo I made. I took out the old guitar part, and It sounded perfect! Of course, I changed a couple things, like the bassline, and the drumbeats, but overall, it was nearly perfect. Also, the lyrics fit very well into the feel of the chords."

When asked about the song's sound, here's what Blaine said too.

"Umm, it's just...well I said had a chord-driven guitar part. Then, the bass is also repetitive, but what bass isn't in our songs? The drums are calm, nothing violent. The song is in 4/4, A minor. Kinda tells you it's not too fast and it's sad. If it weren't for the guitar sticking out well, it could've been called a ballad. Basically, think "Island In the Sun".

The music video shall be released soon, and is stated by the band to be "a parkour of the mind."

The song has broken into the Top 200 in the US at its debut, hitting number #165, becoming their second song to enter the Top 200 as well as the band's highest charting single thus far in their career.

Stephanie Fierce: Is there a such thing? Just wondering, not trying to stir you up or anything. All I know is about the Top 40.

Thanks. And to all the fans, we are really sorry for the long-delay for the debut album. We promise it will be out by the end of November.

yeah i know how hard it is to begin with but it will get better in time.
Don't pay attention to that kind of thing, just be proud of what your doing.
Some people don't need number 1 hits to make them happy, just writing a good song is what i look towards.

Stephanie Fierce: Um #1 just says to me that I have the most sold that week and that my fans really dig my song that's it. I have countless of songs that didn't go #1, take "Love Feels Like Grenades", one of my favorite songs and it didn't go #1. I was just wondering if there was such thing as a Top 200 chart. The Sun Shines( clear vision) have really good music and a number doesn't define that.

Stephanie Fierce: 'I don't recall me being "disrespectful ". I asked a simple question and they answered it, you are the only one who seems to be worked up. I was just wondering what was a Billboard chart and if there was an actual Top 200 chart. I personally love Clear Vision and their music, and to me a number does not define talent.
