THEN & NOW: Blue

UK boy band Blue (previously featured as part of our Where Are They Now? series) are celebrating 21 years of music this year with a new album and a brand new single, “Haven’t Found You Yet”, which has more than a distinct whiff of OneRepublic’s “Kids” about it!

Antony, Lee, Duncan and Simon have reformed (again) and recorded a new album, “Heart & Soul”, their first since “Colours” in 2015. Blue debuted in 2001 with the UK top five hit “All Rise” and closed the year with two number ones, “Too Close” and “If You Come Back”.

Blue achieved 11 UK top ten hits until they split up in 2005 with all four members forging solo careers, some more successful than others, until they regrouped in 2011 to represent the UK at that year’s Eurovision Song Contest with “I Can”. The quartet have sold over fifteen million records to date.
