You and I think alike. You have no idea how many times I considered adding that one! Ridiculous how much I labor over these playlists. Thanks for checking it out.
A lot of people don't know that Todd Rundgren did the lion's share of production on "Straight Up" (and, thus, "Baby Blue") after George Harrison left the project due to his increasing commitment to the Bangla Desh charity concert. So, let's toss "Crazy Lady Blue" into the mix as well. [From "Oops Wrong Planet" by Utopia, 1977. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bbqn-RFssDc]
Great playlist! If you consider it power-poppy enough, I would also nominate "Pink Turns to Blue" by Hüsker Dü.

this is so fun!
Glad you dig it! Choosing a random theme for a playlist is challenging, but there is some really great music here. Enjoy.

Great insights AND great suggestion!
Cool list! I'd add:
Blue - The Jayhawks
Blue Cassette - Friendly Fires
Blue - LeAnn Rimes
Blue Bayou - Linda Ronstadt
Blue Letter - Fleetwood Mac
Blue - Marina & the Diamonds
Nice! Jayhawks was on there…but I cap these at 40 songs, so they ultimately fell off.
I'd also add Pete Townshend's "Brilliant Blues" from White City. Love that song.
Nice one!
