Re: I can pretty comfortably say that Baby Blue is Big 3 good
I'm surprised to hear that Dave said that this was about Roi. To me I always thought it was about having children, their eyes are a beautiful blue color when they are born, and you do feel like you've been punched in the gut when you first see them as the weight of the responsibility settles in and there's nothing like a spontaneous I love you kiss from your child. Raising them you try your best and then letting them fly on their own with their guardian angels watching over them for you because you can't be there every minute to protect them.
I am obviously in the camp of loving this song but I don't think that it is truly about Roi. I think it is about having children. Especially given that it is placed right before YAM on the album.
WIA and LITHOG are definitely tributes to Roi but I'm not so sure about Baby Blue.
