}}Fading Shades is the sixth studio album by German singer Sandra, released in 1995.[1]

In 1995, while pregnant with twins, Sandra recorded and released Fading Shades. The album saw a new writer/producer Jens Gad working alongside Michael Cretu. The album featured a powerful cover version of "Nights in White Satin" by The Moody Blues. The music video showed only close-ups of Sandra's face as she was heavily pregnant at the time. She even had to sit during the recording sessions of the album. Again, Andy "Angel" Hart performed all the male vocals on the album. Note that the album cover was taken from the music video of "Nights in White Satin".

The album become one of her least successful releases, reaching number forty-two in Germany and thirty-seven in Switzerland.
