Revered band Blue’s 2003 song One love is trending online, but the boys, in their 40s, don’t “understand what that means”. Currently on tour, they hope to do a show in India soon

Blue band
Inarguably among the most popular bands of the 2000s, Brit-quartet Blue amassed a league of followers fairly early in their pop music career. Having delivered 15 chart-toppers in the mere span of three years soon after their debut, their early success had them rubbing shoulders with industry icons like Elton John and Stevie Wonder, establishing their place as a band that was, as they say, “here to stay”.
And even though their hit tracks, including All rise, U make me wanna, and One love never left the playlists of ’90s kids, it is the recent attention directed to the last one on this list that brings them before us for this interview. One love has been trending on social media, but there’s some comic relief in the unison with which they nod their heads in the negative when we ask them if they are social media-savvy. “When they tell us we’re trending, we’re grateful, but we don’t know what that means,” say the boys in their 40s, adding, “We’re not from this era.” In this interview, they discuss sticking together for 24 years, and the defining moments that made them.
