Avicii's "Silhouettes" got its proper release on 27 April 2012 in the UK, more than a year after an earlier cut, pitched differently, had leaked online in early 2011, and some blogs had muddied the waters by mistakenly posting Tatana and Scaloni's "Flash" in its place. The Swedish DJ and producer handled the production himself, and the voice belongs to Swedish singer Salem Al Fakir, who goes uncredited on the track even though the words are his. Tim Bergling wrote the music, with Arash Pournouri also among the writers.
It's progressive house cut for the big room, and in the run of Avicii singles it landed between "Blessed" and "Superlove".
