Colours, Rainbows, or Darkness? is a 1999 produced unreleased song performed by Scottish actor/voice actor Michael E. Rodgers. It is a dark comedic song that is disguised as a normal song for young children.

Background
This song is disguised as a normal dramatic children's song. In this song, Michael E. Rodgers explains colours of the rainbow, although out of order, and the emotions that match the colours. It first was innocent and cheerful, but then, it turns dark and dramatic, but it's just for humour, despite the sad lyrics and the somber tone of Michael's singing voice.

Music Video
The music video for this song was filmed at Shepperton Studios in London, England. In the music video, Michael E. Rodgers was painting a beautiful picture filled with rainbows and bright colours. Unfortunately, when he came back to check on the painting the next day, it turned negative and had dark colours. Soon, the angry ghosts and demons come out of the painting and haunt Michael. Michael screamed and cried as he gets chased by the angry ghosts and demons. Michael finally was able to escape safely by hiding in an upstairs attic, but unfortunately, the angry ghosts and demons from the painting came into the door and haunted Michael to death. He screamed and cried before the demons gave him a severe headache. Due to the headache, Michael made one last cry of pain before he fainted on a bed, and the angry ghosts and demons went back into the painting, thus ending the video.

Reception and Controversy
The song and it's music video has gained a lot of controversy due to it easily being mistaken as a children's song. There were complaints that the song and the music video were too scary. Due to this, this was one of the most hated Michael E. Rodgers songs ever made, due to the dark humour easily scaring children.
