Blue

Blue is the colour between violet and green on the optical spectrum of visible light. Human eyes perceive blue when observing light with a wavelength between 450 and 495 nanometres. Blues with a higher frequency and thus a shorter wavelength gradually look more violet, while those with a lower frequency and a longer wavelength gradually appear more green. Pure blue, in the middle, has a wavelength of 470 nanometres. In painting and traditional colour theory, blue is one of the three primary colours of pigments, along with red and yellow, which can be mixed to form a wide gamut of colours. Red and blue mixed together form violet, blue and yellow together form green. Blue is also a primary colour in the RGB colour model, used to create all the colours on the screen of a television or computer monitor.

The modern English word blue comes from Middle English bleu or blewe, from the Old French bleu, a word of Germanic origin, related to the Old High German word blao. The clear sky and the deep sea appear blue because of an optical effect known as Rayleigh scattering. When sunlight passes through the atmosphere, the blue wavelengths are scattered more widely by the oxygen and nitrogen molecules, and more blue comes to our eyes. Rayleigh scattering also explains blue eyes; there is no blue pigment in blue eyes. Distant objects appear more blue because of another optical effect called atmospheric perspective.

Blue (Vivid song)

"Blue" is the second major and sixth overall single release by the Japanese band Vivid. The single was released in three different versions: two limited CD+DVD editions (A+B) and a regular CD only edition. Each limited edition contains a different type of the title song's music video, but differs in the second live track: A comes with ""Yume" ~Mugen no Kanata~", while B comes with the unreleased song "Ril". Both live performances were taped during their last indies oneman live, which was released as the DVD Indies Last: Vivid Oneman Live "Kousai Genesis". The regular edition contains the B-side track "Re:Load", and the first press of this edition with an original Bleach cover jacket and one randomly chosen trading card (out of a possible six). The title track was used as an opening theme song in the anime Bleach. The single reached number 4 on the Oricon weekly charts, where it charted for eight weeks.

Plot

After moving out of the apartment she shared with Santana Lopez (Naya Rivera) and Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer), Rachel (Lea Michele) is revealed to have moved in with Elliott "Starchild" Gilbert (Adam Lambert), another member of "Pamela Lansbury," the band Kurt formed, and the two bond over an impromptu performance of "Barracuda." While working at the Broadway diner, she and Santana attempt to out-sing each other in a rendition of "Gloria," both vying for the approbation of Gilbert; instead, they inadvertently drive him from the band. Kurt, tired of their feuding, reconvenes Elliot and Dani (Demi Lovato) to form a new musical venture, "One Three Hill", who perform "The Happening" at their debut; while watching this trio, Rachel and Santana are forced to co-exist peacefully, leading to the beginnings of a reconciliation when Santana points out that they share a hunger for success and a willingness to backstab others, even ostensible friends, to get to the top.
