They soon signed to Sarah Records, releasing the single Clearer in 1991, and soon took on more members, including singer/cellist Gemma Townlet and second guitarist Harvey Williams. Clearer was followed by several singles and two LPs, If Wishes Were Horses and Unisex. Their final release, The Bank of England, was released in 1998 on Shinkansen Records; by then, Girdler and Stewart were the only original members of the band. Girdler and Stewart were also involved in two other bands, Arabesque and Beaumont.

Blueboy's songwriting touches on the timeless indie-pop motifs of intimacy and vulnerability, with a modicum of sexual ambiguity, both in lyrics and cover artwork. Their sound combines the jangly guitar-based pop sound of their genre with elements of bossa nova and shoegazer.

by Blueboy

don't restrict me
don't restrict me
i can't take all your guilt
don't whip me
don't beat me
don't stone me
i can't take much more of this
so let me live and let me love
i need love so bad
let me be please
let me be free this time
my time it is getting clearer day by day
this time my time it is getting oh oh so
goodbye freedom
goodbye freedom
we've gone back thirty years
secret lovers, blood brothers
don't you give the game away
for all the clubs and all the pubs
there's still no love
don't whip me
don't stone me
let me be free this time
my time it is getting clearer day by day
this time my time it is getting oh oh so
