Our Take
Our Take
Well, well, well, what do we have here? BLUE NILE's debut album "A Walk Across The Rooftops" is a delightful mix of dreamy melodies and contemplative lyrics that will have you swaying in your fuzzy slippers.
From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where the sun always shines, the birds are always chirping, and your ex-boyfriend suddenly realizes what a mistake he made. The production on this album is so smooth, it's like taking a sip of Earl Grey tea with a hint of honey.
Lead singer Paul Buchanan's vocals are like butter melting on a hot crumpet, smooth and comforting. Tracks like "Tinseltown in the Rain" and "Stay" will have you reminiscing about that one holiday romance you had in Spain, even if you've never been to Spain.
But don't be fooled by the whimsical title, this album has layers deeper than the Loch Ness Monster's trench. BLUE NILE tackles themes of love, loss, and longing with a touch of Scottish charm that will leave you contemplating life's mysteries while tapping your feet to the beat.
Overall, "A Walk Across The Rooftops" is a must-listen for anyone who enjoys a bit of melancholy with a side of whimsy. So grab your umbrella and take a stroll on the rooftops with BLUE NILE, you won't regret it.

The Blue Nile
Blue Nile, the enigmatic Scottish trio, have been weaving sonic tapestries since their debut album "A Walk Across the Rooftops" in 1984. With their dreamy, atmospheric soundscapes and introspective lyrics, Blue Nile have carved out a niche in the music industry that is entirely their own.

Their influence can be heard in the work of contemporary artists such as The xx and Bon Iver, proving that their legacy continues to resonate with a new generation of listeners. With just four albums to their name, Blue Nile have managed to captivate audiences with their ethereal sound and poetic lyrics. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to their music, one thing is certain – Blue Nile is a band that will transport you to another world with their spellbinding melodies and emotive storytelling.
