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.
Blueboy can also refer to any of a number of bands/artists called Blueboys that are redirected to this page.

Blueboy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then everyone is a star
Talk about the future
Come back close in the snow
Pink sky blue trail
V.C. tensing
In a car very fast
Watching katy sleeping
Scissors voice echoes past
Pink sky blue trail
V.C. tensing
Way out beyond the clouds
Piled golden sun shine out, shine on
Your daydreams turn me on
Fountain pens and pages
Ice cream white nothing flows
Frames of gorgeous
Is this art? no one knows
Pink sky blue trail
V.C. tensing
Drunk on sentimental
But it's time to move on
Look beyond the lying
And my words that were wrong
Pink sky blue trail
V.C. tensing
Way out beyond the clouds
Pile golden sun shine out, shine on
Your daydreams turn me on
Way out beyond the clouds
Pile golden sun shine out, shine on
Your daydreams turn me on
Way out beyond the clouds
Pile golden sun shine out, shine on
Your daydreams turn me on
The song "Joined" by Blueboy is an interpretation of the fleeting nature of memories and the desire for something more. The first two lines of the song talk about how people are seen as stars when they talk about their past, which can be interpreted as a person being glorified for something they might have once accomplished, but can no longer obtain. Then the song talks about the desire to talk about the future and returning to a time when everything was good, which can be both nostalgic and hopeful.
The third verse seems to be a collection of seemingly random phrases that might be symbolic of a time once had. The line, "Pink sky blue trail V.C. tensing," suggests an idyllic scenery that may be remembered from the past. The poet may be trying to connect with the past while experiencing a new sense of existence.
The fourth verse might be referring to the poet's introspective thoughts while driving, a way of personal healing. The poet is watching "Katy" sleeping, someone who is closed to him, and the "scissors voice echoes past" expresses a haunting memory that he is attempting to escape by driving away from it.
The chorus in this song repeats "pink sky blue trail" and "V.C. tensing," which feels like a representation of tight emotions being held onto after losing someone or something. It almost appears as if the poet is having a vision of his past reflected in the sky.
Overall, the song is ambiguous, and the lyrics are abstract in meaning. At times, it's difficult to connect the dots between the chorus and the verses, but it appears to revolve around a somber tone of being stuck in the past and moving forward.
