"Clarity" is a song by Russian-German electronic dance music producer Zedd featuring the vocals of British singer Foxes. It serves as the third single from his debut studio album of the same name. The song was written by Zedd, Matthew Koma, Porter Robinson and Skylar Grey and released as iTunes Single of the Week on October 2, 2012, and as an EP on February 12, 2013 via Interscope Records. Zedd has released an extended mix of the song exclusively on Beatport on November 12, 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.beatport.com/#release/clarity-extended-mix/995714 )〕 When Zedd listened to Foxes' song "Youth", he skyped her and asked her to be the vocalist on "Clarity". After Foxes did research on Wikipedia about Zedd, she accepted the offer. In June 2014, following the success of Stay the Night featuring Hayley Williams in the United Kingdom, Clarity was re-released there, and this time reached a better peak of number 27, compared to the previous one of 29 in 2013. It ended up being awarded Silver certification by the BPI following the intake of streaming into Official Charts data in the UK. The extended play of the track was released on February 18, 2013. It features ten remixes including Tiësto, Headhunterz and Funkagenda, among others.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.beatport.com/release/clarity-remixes/1043750 )〕 From December 2012 to February 4, 2013, Zedd hosted a remix contest for the track. There were 982 official entries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Zedd / 'Clarity' Remix Competition )〕 The winning remix by Tom Budin is due to be featured on an upcoming Zedd release.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Zedd Ft.

The music video featured Foxes and actor/model AJ English as a couple. The video starts with tha camera panning over the desert, and later switching to see Foxes and male lead driving in different cars, until they suddenly collide head-to-head, with enough force for both characters to rocket backward. The male lead wakes up after being knocked unconscious from the collision, and finds the injured Foxes. However, she runs away through the desert, making him follow her until she falls unconscious in the sand. A rewind of the whole event was shown afterwards, before in the final scene, the two people drive in the same car, presumably enjoying themselves. All scenes were accompanied by computer effects of collisions and other images that synchronize with the music. It also features Zedd's cameo. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Clarity (Zedd song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
