It's hard for strangers to capture lightning in a bottle, and there's no shame in saying "We had different musical ambitions, and it's ok."

A memory of this song I’ll never forget: I was in elementary school (born in ‘90) and my bus was just pulling into school in the morning for drop off. This song comes on the radio. The entire bus load of kids-were talking 30-40 kids-was singing along to this song. Every single kid. That’s how big of a deal this song was back in the day. No one could resist it, and no one tried. God the 90s were great 💙

When he played the piano in the beginning it struck something in my heart from when i first heard the song as a kid. You know you've made something special when music makes you feel a certain way.

I was born 1990 and this song was a big part of my childhood! Thanks for this cool video about them.

This series is probably one of the best out there. It’s interesting to see the behind the scenes on some of the most nostalgic songs for many of us. Sad how they never worked out as a band in the end but it’s nice to see they’re all doing pretty well.

Its sad too see that big groups like this didnt accualy get along all that well. But its really what happens with these one hit-groups, the song blew up out of nowhere and suddenly people start fighting over who did what and forget that it matters they even got the oppertunity to get this big. Nonetheless absolute timeless classic :)

Looking back, I had no idea what the genre of music was, but it was something that was completely different then was on the radio in America at the time. Fast forward to 2010, I picked up Hardstyle and techno. Again, nothing like it in America. Now I look back on those days and I smile. Great times. I still listen to some Hardstyle every now and then. My daughter is a huge EDM fan now. She loves Techno. I played her some tracks from Euro Pop and she loved them. It made me smile. The music I listened too and loved as a child is now the same music my daughter listens to. So special

So many amazing memories rush to my mind as soon as I hear the first couple of notes of the melody. That is exactly what good music is, that is exactly what art is. Thank you Eiffel!

Travis you are very right . The whole Miami vice theme is coming back .

Blue was a formative song for me in my childhood. I connected with the song because I felt like the music was saying words that I could not articulate. It was as if someone was singing for me, and because of that, I could express myself when I heard this song. I bought all the music that Eiffel 65 and Bloom 06 made because that unique sound was my sound. It was me, and because I loved it, I felt happiness in myself. Blue is the anthem for people looking to see that they are not alone in this world. Thank you Gabry, Maury, and Jeffrey for giving me this connection and this beautiful song.

I love the background story, and the fact that it was such a random hit. As a music producer in the late 1990's, it was an amazing time in the world of electronic music production and distribution... Also, a friend of mine thought that the lyrics said "I'm blue, I'm in need of a guy - I'm in need of a..." - which made it all even more fun. Great work, guys!

​@@miserabletry as an Italian, Im so proud to see that Anglo-Saxons listeners like you out there appreciate 90's italian dance music after so many years. I'm 38 and it's not so common to see italian music to be known outside our country. Eiffel 65 and some other italian dance music artists made it possible. If you like this type of music try even Gala "Come into my life" and Alexia "Me and you" songs. They are both italian and they are amazing. Cheers from Tuscany!

Wonder if James Cameron heard this song and made Avatar.

Already on it. Lately I've been channeling my inner Millennial child self, listening to nostalgic music from the 90s. Dance pop being club music with pop lyrics, European dance music meeting USA electronic music, it all makes sense now why I like party music and EDM today. I also reactivated my boy band dancing skills. Is that something I should be embarrassed about though. lol

Being a kid back in the 90’s, this song always gave me goosebumps.

I've seen a few behind the music types shows & when they interview foreign producers who ended up splitting, they are always so diplomatic when explaining what happened. Much respect.

I was a homeless 13 year old, living in an abandoned motel when this song came out. I was bullied a lot during that time too; and music was my only escape. I knew I wanted to do something in music when I grew up, but I wasn't sure. I listened to this track and a lot of tracks by Thievery Corporation. I was bullied for my music choices too; and I was soooo poor. But one thing I could afford was this single. It was like $12. I had a Discman I got for Christmas 2 years before that, and I played the HELL out of this single. I didn't actually see the music video until I was about 23 years old. Now I'm a former DJ who still goes bananas when this comes on. Thank you for keeping me happy and safe while I SURVIVED poverty. :)

Just came across it right now. I was a little kid when it came out. I was smiling the whole time while watching this documentary. Thank you VICE! :)

We'd recently got married and in the B & B where we spent our honeymoon, this song was always floating out of the kitchen area on the radio every morning, without fail. Whichever station they listened to REALLY liked this song lol, it was a staple, every morning. No other songs stick out in my memory of those mornings, apart from this one. All these years later, still married to the same guy, now with a 19 year old son, and every time I hear this song I am transported back in time to being a newlywed couple again. I have a really fond affection for this song. I also feel a bit old reading most of the comments saying that they were in school when this song came out lol!

Gabry was basically told: you didn’t WRITE anything, yet is the one that literally built the architecture of the song. Eiffel 65 also had a side projects (sans Gabry) called Bloom 06 which also had some cool dance tracks. When that did not play out, it seemed natural to reassume the E65 name. Thanks Vice for covering this, man it’s purely nostalgic for me and took me back to the early 2000’s when trance, dance and euro pop music was truly at global peak.
