The sky, the sea, flowers of the field - so many things on the earth are a beautiful shade of blue.
Blue is defined by Merriam-Webster as "a color whose hue is that of the clear sky or that of the portion of the color spectrum lying between green and violet." In terms of symbolism, blue is often associated with calm, inspiration, loyalty, protection, reliability, responsibility, relaxation, security, serenity, stability, trust, and wisdom. Does blue just not quite hit for you? Check out different shades like baby, cerulean, cobalt, Columbia, cornflower, cyan, electric, midnight, navy, Oxford, periwinkle, powder, royal, sapphire, turquoise, ultramarine, or any of the many other shades and names this color can go by depending on what frequency it's sitting at.
Like before, this post will be divided between albums and songs. For albums, I've again compiled a list of albums from my husband and I's individual Apple Music libraries looking for blue album covers for the Blue Playlist available @audioaesthetics. I've also complied a list of songs, again from both my and my husband's libraries, that have blue (or a various shade) somewhere in the title. Let's get listening!
