I was reading on Instagram today that Blue released their debut album 'All Rise' 20 years ago today!





1. All Rise
2. Too Close
3. This Temptation
4. If You Come Back
5. Fly By
6. Bounce
7. Long Time
8. Make It Happen
9. Back To You
10. Girl I'll Never Understand
11. Back Some Day
12. Best In Me

That's absolutely crazy / terrifying it's been 20 years! I loved Blue when they first came out. Having this album on again on Spotify reminded me what bangers they had back in the day, how tight their harmonies were and indeed, what a big hit this album was: four singles, two number ones, took about six months from release to reach number one itself on the album chart, and sold over a million here.











I know there's been talk of a new album next year recently. Would be really intrigued to hear how that would sound.

All Rise is a great song, one of my favourite for debuted by a boy band.

If You Come Back is also good.

I used to have such a crush on Lee Ryan, although not sure why as he wasn't really my type!

Some great pop songs on this album smile.gif

My sister was a wee bit obsessed with him - about 10 years ago we went through stuff in the attic and she found a Blue/Duncan box! I was told off when he came out, as I 'should have known!'

For me they were pretty much a crap boyband with little to remember them by (like JLS), but I do really love 'If You Come Back'.

Yeah 'If You Come Back' is easily there best song imo and best ballad (I'm a big fan of 'Breathe Easy' as well though).
