"Shine Your Way" is a song by American electronica project Owl City and Malaysian singer Yuna. The song was released on March 4, 2013, from the 2013 DreamWorks Animation film, The Croods.[1]
During post-production of The Croods, Kirk DeMicco and Chris Sanders created a playlist to "evoke the feeling they wanted" for the film, in which several tracks on that playlist were by Owl City.[2] Sanders stated they wanted Owl City, because he provides, "just the right weight and the right lift you need."[2] According to Yuna, Silvestri reached out to Young, who also needed a female vocalist for the track.[3]
"Shine Your Way" was written and produced by Alan Silvestri, Glen Ballard, Kirk DeMicco and Chris Sanders.[4] The song has been described as a positive and optimistic track.[2] According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com, by Alfred Music Publishing, the track runs at 120 BPM and is in the key of D flat major.[5] Young and Yuna's range in the song spans from the notes Bb3 to Bb5.[5]
