Need Feedback on New Song Buttons

I'm adding a new button called "Tell a Friend" which takes you to a form where you can email up to 5 people and send them a link to the song. Because of this new addition, I have to rethink the buttons next to each song. Below are three color variations of showing two button types, text, and icon. Please let me know which you prefer and why. If you don't like any of the options, make a suggestion on how you feel this information should be presented.

The idea is to:
1. not use more space than what we already have per song 2. try to make it look clean 3. use something that is easy to understand 4. use somethign that looks good with all the skins
I'm favoring the icons, but I wanted to see how some of you felt before any changes were made. If you've seen something on another site that you like, post the URL and I'll take a look.
Thank you for your feedback.

The dark is much more visible...Yet, the white is more "artistserver clean" to me. Grey seems invisible... not much more to say than that; it blends in too well I suppose. I like the white.

Well, I forgot that part, but I think I prefer the icons as long as you have the help popup text that says what it does. The text on the other hand would be good for folks who haven't been to artistserver yet though and sometimes it'd lend itself to be more user friendly.
But since these buttons look like they pertain to members- I say go with the text. It's a very clean setup and I appreciate all the work you're doing to make it look very clean. Opposed to Acid Planet and other places the pages are so dark and scary looking. AS is bright white & that's a plus.

I agree with Kylo re: colors. I favor the icons, and as also was said, as long as there are little text helpers that pop up when you hover 'em.

yes, you'll see text when you move your mouse over each button, just as it does currently.
