Blue Memories was sent to Loveless's producer, Tony Brown by Paul Kennerley for her to listen to. Once she heard this song, after just hearing the chorus kick in, Loveless decided to record it. Loveless was a big fan of Paul Kennerley, and he also wrote "Blue Side Of Town", which was the lead track on her previous album, "Honky Tonk Angel".
The song charted for 20 weeks on the Billboard Hot Country Singles and Tracks chart, reaching #22 during the week of 20 July 1991.

Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or memories:
“That air would disappear from the whole earth in time, perhaps; but long after his day. He did not know just when it had become so necessary to him, but he had come back to die in exile for the sake of it. Something soft and wild and free, something that whispered to the ear on the pillow, lightened the heart, softly, softly picked the lock, slid the bolts, and released the prisoned spirit of man into the wind, into the blue and gold, into the morning, into the morning!”
—Willa Cather (18731947)
“We are prisoners of the worlds demented sink.
The soft enchantments of our years of innocence
Are harvested by accredited experience
Our fondest memories soon turn to poison
And only oblivion remains in season.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
