On Ellen, Greyson revealed he had received piano lessons for the past 3 years, but had not undergone any formal vocal training. He cited Lady Gaga as his primary inspiration, stating, "I love how she's so different, and she takes her individuality and she takes her amazing talent that she has and she makes just great songs that are catchy and make you want to dance."
Greyson was on the show on May 26, 2010 again. He performed his own song "Broken Hearts". He got 10,000 dollar from the producers of the Ellen DeGeneres Show. Also Ellen told that Greyson is the first artist on her brand new label called eleveneleven and that they will make a record together.
As of 2014, Greyson is currently in the process of writing and recording his sophomore studio album.
On March 15, 2019 Chance released his sophomore album "portraits". He, himself, calls it his debut album because he had complete creative control on this album and he feels like it's what reflects him now, as an artist.

Dancing Next To Me
Greyson Chance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let loose, he doesn't know what he wants but
I do, and I give into the moment
Hmm, hey
Hold tight, says he wants to come over
And I'll try, try to keep my composure
But I might, say something that I mean
It's the last thing I remember, the first thing that I saw
I thought you had surrendered, and you don't pick up my calls
But I know, that you felt it, and I felt it
When you were there, you were there, you were dancing next to me
Dancing next to me
Dancing next to me
Dancing next to me
You were there, you were there
You were dancing next to me
Slow down, those aren't the words that I wanted
From your mouth, from your lips that I just kissed
One more shot, but I need two
One last touch, and I want you
You were there, you were there, you were dancing next to me
It's the last thing I remember, the first thing that I saw
I thought you had surrendered, and you don't pick up my calls
But I know, that you felt it, and I felt it
When you were there, you were there, you were dancing next to me
Dancing next to me
Dancing next to me
Dancing next to me
You were there, you were there
You were dancing next to me
I was yours for the weekend, come sunrise it's time
For you to dodge your feelings, call your girl to deny
What we know is the truth, you were who you wanted to be
When you were there, you were there, you were dancing next to me
Yeah, dancing next to me
Yeah, you were dancing next to me
Yeah, you were dancing next to me
You were there, you were there
Yeah, you were dancing next to me
The song "Dancing Next To Me" by Greyson Chance talks about a night of passion between two people. The first verse describes a man who doesn't drink but seems to let loose on the dance floor with the singer. The chorus emphasizes the fleeting nature of the encounter – the singer remembers the experience vividly but feels like the man has disappeared. Despite this, the singer knows that they both shared a moment of connection and intimacy on the dance floor.
In the second verse, the singer wants more from the encounter and tries to push for it. They want to hear certain words from the man but he doesn't say them. The bridge of the song reveals that this was a weekend fling and that the man isn't willing to confront his feelings. The singer laments this fact but still remembers the powerful connection they shared when they were dancing together.
The song is a powerful meditation on temporary connections and the desire for something more from them. It also captures the universal feeling of wanting to hold onto a moment of happiness and connection despite the inevitability of it passing.
