Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Kenny Loggins was born in Everett, WA, and moved to Los Angeles in his teens. He got a job as a staff writer and wrote four songs used on a Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album in 1970, among them the hit "House at Pooh Corner." This brought him to the attention of former Poco member Jim Messina, now a staff producer at CBS, who intended to produce Loggins' debut album. The two ended up in a duo, however, and Loggins & Messina made a series of successful albums during the '70s. Loggins & Messina broke up in 1976, and Loggins went on to solo stardom with such million-selling albums as Celebrate Me Home, Nightwatch (which included the hit "Whenever I Call You Friend"), and Keep the Fire, all in the cheerful, sensitive style he had displayed in Loggins & Messina. Loggins also became known as the king of the movie soundtrack song, scoring Top Ten hits with "I'm Alright" (from Caddyshack), "Footloose" (from Footloose), "Danger Zone" (from Top Gun), and "Nobody's Fool" (from Caddyshack II).

Blue On Blue Lyrics
Kenny Loggins
Found your picture in an old coat
And the ghost stirred deep inside.
All this time and I still feel the cold
From the madness in my pride.
Don't know why you ended it that way
I would've thought that you would tell
me to my face
CHORUS
Color me blue on blu
Color me sadness without you.
Color me blue on blue
And I will wear it well.
I will wear it well.
Painted someone from a vision.
You saw the future in his eyes.
I know that wasn't how you pictured me.
You stole my hope, now I'll never know why.
Two hearts who began to beat as one.
I guess you scared yourself
And now you're on the run.
