I can't believe that there are individuals that haven't heard this song (nothing personal). I was about 6 or 7 years old when It came out and somehow It got stuck in my head, probably because of the rhythm.

I wish I was one of those individuals that never heard that song.

I'm seeing a pattern here that everyone (including me) who doesn't know it was an adult when the song came out. It must have had some special appeal to young children.

Well I was a child when it came out, and I loved it. Funnily enough I recall it being the catalyst for me getting into techno. Of course after a while the song became incredibly annoying and didn't get out of my head very easily.

My friends and I loved the Blue song when it came out, but now that I listen to it it was kinda of cheesy I guess. The video just shows how awful graphics really were in the 90s! Extremely catchy tune though.

Well, it's official. That song is going to be stuck in my head all day today. I haven't thought about it since about 2000!

I always lump "I'm Blue" in with stuff like the Vengaboys "We Like To Party"...anything that showed up on those crappy Now compilations in the late 90's. It reminds me of when I first moved Southeast Asia...they loved the **** out of that kind of music. It was seriously playing everywhere I went.

Ahh . . . crappy '90s music. I can still jam out to that stuff. I love it!

I remember the very day I heard that song. (was around 2001 or so) I was working as a welder, fabricating parts for commercial heaters in a hot ass factory in Florida. There was always someone with a radio on, tuned to the local station that played pop and party hits, so we could listen to absolutely asinine crap while we did repetitive, meaningless work for minimum wage and have something to hate more than what we were doing with our lives.

I was SUBJECTED to it the first time I heard it. And was tortured by it for months thereafter. It made some of the other crap that came on the radio a welcome relief.

I learned so many lyrics for ridiculous songs that I hate, the whole year and a half. I couldn't wear ear plugs or headphones. (safety thing because there were forklifts going about constantly)

That, along with the heat of the factory and the welding slag burning me constantly was the reason I vowed to myself that my actual career path would involve computers, because they're always located in offices.
