about

This song is inspired by Yves Klein's blue monochrome paintings.
The lyrics were created from translations of some of his statements about blue.
You can see one of his blue monochromes here:

lyrics

At first there is nothing
Then there is a profound nothingness
After that, a blue profundity

I did not like the nothing
and it is thus
that I met the empty
the deep empty
with the depth of the blues

It was then, that I remembered the colour blue

I had left the visible, physical blue at the door
The real blue was inside

I have devoted myself to blue.
