I have a song for you, it's from the late 90s.

I have a group for you, they're from the late 80s.

All this just came out of the blue.

Never knew what exactly Blue Man Group was doing.

Now I know. They were doing spectacular shows.

That one about Dubai and Aberdeen?

Yo, listen up, here's a story about a little guy that lives in a blue world.

And all day and all night and everything he sees is just blue, like him, inside and outside.

Blue his house with a blue little window and a blue Corvette.

And everything is blue for him and himself and everybody around, 'cause he ain't got nobody to listen...

I have a blue house with a blue window...

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Blue is the color of all that I wear...

I'm the operator with my pocket calculator

[–] letsgo@lemm.ee 2 points 2 weeks ago

So, about your colourblindness...

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 33 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Downvotes are for putting that ear worm into peoples’ heads. Probably.

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Hell no! My ass going to Spotify to play it right meow.

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee -4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You say that, but you’ll have better luck on YouTube. You’ll put the song you want into Spotify and it will play any and all songs triggered by its “similar” algorithm. There’s a high probability it will take days of trying to hear a single, specific song on Spotify.

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

Days? No. Try years, if ever. I’m still getting recommendations of kids songs from years ago when I let my kids use my account.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Downvotes? For this banger?! Have fun thinking about The Venga Boys now then suckers!

You know he had to be kicking himself for not actually making the final lyrics "if I were green I would die"

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Get some glasses and you got Milhouse

[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

🎶 I'm GREEN. If i was blue, i would dye. If i was blue i would dye. 🎵

[–] AtariDump@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I’m blue, I’m in need of a guy

I’m in neeed of a guy

I’m in need of a guy (repeat as necessary)

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 3 points 2 weeks ago

It was a great mystery at the time what was actually being sung there.

Along with yours, we also had:

I'm blue, I believe I'm a dog,
I believe I'm a dog,
I believe I'm a dog.

And

I'm blue, I believe I will die
I believe I will die
I believe I will die.

Eiffel 65? I never knew what that song was called or who did it.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

It was the first album I ever bought... And I am pretty sure I only listened to that one song.
