"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" was commonly used with other memes and inspired a lot of YouTube Poop videos in the late 2010s. "Gottam 65 - Im Blu (Gottam Gottam)" by TheNubCupCake."I'm Blue (Da Ba Dee) Shark" by craZelz."Spongebob sings I'm blue" by thanos134ever."Eiffel 65 Im Blue (Techno Remix)" by CryptoJunkie.
The origins are actually rather untraceable, as there are over 1,400 deviations of it on YouTube alone. Most people dismiss this as the origin, because of the relative unpopularity. Other people say it was EOPkers' video "Im Blue – Runescape Style – With Lyrics". Other people say this was the video that started it. This video was also quite popular, snatching over 1,552,000 views so far. However, in the previous year, user Pikachu1391 uploaded a video called "Sonic and Friends Sing 'Blue (Da Ba Dee)' ". The video has since gotten over 5,000,000 views (5,468,244 as of July 25, 2011), and is considered by many to be the video that kick-started the meme.
On July 21, 2008, YouTube user malawolf85 posted a simple video using the song and a single image. Rolling Stone, however, in their review of Europop, gave the song a negative review, stating that the song "blends Cher-esque vocoder vocals, trance-like synth riffs, unabashed Eurodisco beats and a baby-babble chorus so infantile it makes the Teletubbies sound like Shakespeare." The magazine also placed the song on their list of the "20 Most Annoying Songs," at No. PopMatters reviewer Chris Massey, in his review of Europop, described his initial reaction to the song as being "really, really bad." However, he later stated in the review that after many repeated listenings of the song he "loved it." Entertainment Weekly positively reviewed the song, calling the song "a fleeting, feel-good foot-tapper" and gave the song a rating of B. The song received mixed reviews from critics. Lobina came up with the "da ba dee" hook at the end of this line. "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" is one of the first hit songs to use the Auto-Tune vocal warble effect, after Cher's "Believe" and Kid Rock's "Only God Knows Why". The colour blue as the main topic of the song was picked at random, with Lobina telling him to write nonsensical lyrics. Jey stated that his inspiration for the lyrics was how a person picked his lifestyle. The producers of the song then came up with the idea for a dance song. It was know for Underground Warriors, was inspired by group member Maurizio Lobina's composed opening piano hook. It was recorded in September 1998 and released in October of the same year. "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" was written by Eiffel 65 lead singer Jeffrey Jey, keyboardist Maurizio Lobina, and producer Massimo Gabutti. The song also received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2001 Grammy Awards, 2 years after it was released. In the United Kingdom, the song originally entered the top 40 purely on import sales it was only the third single to do this. The song is the group's most popular single, reaching number one in many countries such as Ireland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, Sweden, Switzerland, New Zealand, Finland, Norway, Australia, Germany and Hungary, as well as reaching number six on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. It is the lead single of their debut album Europop. Here in Australia, it went to #1 and went 3x Platinum, as well as topping the charts in the UK, New Zealand, Canada, Iceland, and all over Europe (but curiously, only #2 in the US)."Blue (Da Ba Dee)" was composed by Italian band Eiffel 65. ‘Blue (Da Ba Dee)’, a song as famous for its awful CGI video as its naggingly catchy mondegreens, was first released way back in October, 1998, when a pre-Flume Harley Streten was only 6-going-on-7-years-old. Assuming he’s playing Splendour next year, can you just imagine the scenes at the Amphitheatre if he busted out this ‘Blue’ remix? In an alternate timeline, Flume’d be headlining Splendour In The Grass next month. Could the Hottest 100 sound a little bluer this year? Loading.įlume’s rework of the love-it-or-loathe-it hit follows on from `The Difference’, his 2020 team-up with Toro y Moi, and a string of Hottest 100-charting collabs, including ‘Rushing Back’ with Vera Blue (#2 in the 2019 countdown), ‘Friends’ ft.
