Everything about Blue On Blue totally explained
}}
Blue On Blue is
Leigh Nash's debut solo album. Nash began working on the album a year after
Sixpence None the Richer disbanded. Produced by
Pierre Marchand who is famous for his collaborations with
Sarah Mclachlan, the album consists of pop songs.
The track "
My Idea of Heaven" was released to US radio on the 14th of July, 2006. A video was also made for to accompany the song. Other than that, a remixing competition was held on her official website in order to promote the lead single.
The track "
Ocean Size Love" seems to be the second single and yet never has been promoted.
Critical and commercial response
The album met mostly positive reviews upon release. It was received very well by Christian music reviewers. Nash's vocals, lyrics and music direction were lauded.
Blue On Blue was criticized mainly because of the songs not being as immediately appealing as the ones released by
Sixpence None the Richer. Collaborators on this album are Sixpence bandmate
Matt Slocum, and the songwriting/production team of
Rick Nowels and
Billy Steinberg.
Commercially, the album hasn't performed well. One of the main reasons for this is the fact that the album remains unknown among the masses due to the lack of promotion and airplay. So far, it managed to reach #25 in the
Billboard Top Heatseekers charts; however, the bonus track "
Blue Sky" had reached #5 in Japanese pop music Chart due to it's frenquent airplay and the advertisement of "Toyota Prius" in Japan in 2007.
