Their greatest worldwide success came with their first single 'Blue (Da Ba Dee)' from their 1999 album Europop. Despite this, there can be no doubting that ‘Blue’ played an instrumental part in bringing more dance music-based tones to the mainstream, with the commercial and daytime radio scenes opening this one with welcoming arms. The '65' was added as a mistake: part of a phone number scribbled on a demo by accident. But theres no song that survived that year, except for Blue (and some of Gigis). It is the first single from their album Europop. At the same time like Eiffel 65 raised, Prezioso and some others (names I dont remember) released top20 hits, at least in Germany. With the release being accompanied by a very cool computer-generated official video, filled with the adventures of a bright blue main protagonist, Eiffel 65 suddenly became a household name and in all honesty, it was a level of fame which the Italian trio have since failed to replicate. It includes the hits Blue Da Ba Dee, Move Your Body, and Too Much of Heaven. Blue (Da Ba Dee) (also known as Im Blue) is the debut single of Eiffel 65 released on October 7, 1998.
However, it was almost a full year later when the Euro-pop banger entered the United Kingdom dance music scene, with the song initially entering the top 40 purely on import sales! It was only the third single to do this at the time, and later received a Grammy Awardnomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2001 Grammy Awards, two years after it was released.
