The Color of Silence is the fifth studio album by American singer Tiffany, released on November 7, 2000. It represented a "comeback" for Tiffany, being her first studio album released in seven years, and the first released in the United States in ten years. It was released after Tiffany returned to southern California after living in Nashville, Tennessee for several years attempting to develop her career as a songwriter, as well as to make a return as a country music artist. Background Originally, The Color of Silence was going to be released by Modern Records, but when this company ran into business troubles the release was switched to Eureka Records. The Color of Silence is Tiffany's "alternative" album. It experimented with different facets of the genre including darker textures and lyrics, distorted guitars in "Butterfly" and the unusual time signature in "Flown". The ballad "If Only" is in memory of Tiffany's bodyguard, Frank D'Amato, who died of cancer at age 34 not long before the album was released. An online download version, and a version released in non-US countries, each had bonus tracks not found on the original US CD release. The song "Open My Eyes" was used in the film BearCity. Critical reception and commercial performance The Color of Silence received some very favorable reviews. A Billboard front-page article called it "thoughtful, intelligent, and full of grace", and said that it could be considered "Tiffany's equivalent to Alanis Morissette's landmark Jagged Little Pill." However, the album did not achieve commercial success to match the critical welcome. It made it onto the shelves of many record stores, but was not heavily promoted; it ended up selling mostly to the established fan base which had stuck with Tiffany over the years, as well as to a few new fans attracted by word of mouth or dance club play of songs from this album.
