• Keith Urban said:
"I think I was trying to find songs and write songs to what I had done in the past, just that felt
different for me. This song called 'Blue Ain't Your Color' came along, and it was just one
of those that I loved immediately. I loved the lyric. I loved the melody, the feel,
and it's basically a waltz, you know, like a one, two, three, two, two, three,
a one, two, three, two, two, three."
"But I didn't want it to feel like a waltz, you know? So, when we recorded the song at Starstruck
Studios here in Nashville, we kept it a little more robotic sounding,
so it wasn't a straight band. It was a little more machinery, rhythmically,
and I think it kept, hopefully for me at least, it kept it in a unique place that
allowed the story to have a lot of space."
