Da Ba Dee Da

My entry for this week’s Song Lyric Sunday is Blue by Eiffel 65. Nice suggustion Amy!

Part of the lyrics maybe nonsense; nevertheless, this is one of my favorite dance songs. “Blue (Da Ba Dee)” is a song by Italian music group Eiffel 65. It was first released in October 1998 in Italy by Skooby Records and became internationally successful the following year. It is the lead single of their 1999 debut album, Europop. The song is the group’s most popular single, reaching number one in 17 countries, charting at number two in Italy, and peaking at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 in January 2000.

In the United Kingdom, the song initially entered the top 40 purely on import sales; it was only the third single to do this. The song also received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2001 Grammy Awards, two years after it was released.

Blue by Eiffel 65

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 toI’m blue
Da ba dee da ba di

I have a blue house
With a blue window
Blue is the colour of all that I wear
Blue are the streets
And all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue

Blue are the people here
That walk around
Blue like my corvette its in and outside
Blue are the words I say
And what I think
Blue are the feelings
That live inside me

I’m blue

Blue is the colour of all that I wear
Blue are the streets
And all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue

That walk around
Blue like my corvette, its in and outside
Blue are the words I say
And what I think
Blue are the feelings
