"[Blue and Yellow is] really close to my heart. I wrote it about Quinn—our relationship and how close we are. The first day we met was special; he's just one of those people that you meet in your life that's special. You know you're going to be with this person forever and you know you're going to be close to that person. And it's pretty much about being in a band with someone ... being around someone 24 hours a day is really hard thing to do, and sometimes we don't get along the greatest, but if it came down to it, I'd much rather be Quinn's friend than be in a band with Quinn. That's how close our relationship is. It's great. That's how close that song is to me—I love it."
thats exactly what Bert said
i was listening to Blue And Yellow the frist time I read it and I started bawling so hard I love those guys so much Bert & Quinn own me

It's about love. "It's a feeling that you cannot miss, and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it" Love can be so hurtful sometimes, and yet it can be the greatest thing in the world.
"Should've done something but I've done it enough by the way your hands were shaking rather waste some time with you." This part still confuses me. maybe he had to go somewhere or do something that she doesn't like but he's tired of doing it and so he wants to only be with her.

I know this song is about Quinn and Bert's relationship. This song is about a really deep relationship. I think the only way you will get this song is if you have a relationship with a friend that is very deep.
"and it's all in how you mix the two
and it starts just where the light exists
it's a feeling that you cannot miss
and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it"
It's about a relationship between two people. No one knows how it truley starts (where the light exists). If you have this type of relationship you positively know about it, there is no way you can confuse the feeling with something else. (a feeling that you cannot miss/ and it burns a hole through everyone that feels it)
"well you're never gonna find it
if you're looking for it
won't come your way
well you'll never find it
if you're looking for it"
Don't try to look for it. Cause you can't simply find the one person who understand you so clearly. It just happens, and there is nothing that you can do to find that person.
"should've done something but I've done it enough
by the way your hands were shaking
rather waste some time with you"
People and your mind are telling you to go do things. But seeing this person you are so close too be upset (hands shaking) you would give up everything in the world to just try and help them and spend time with them.
"and you never would have thought in the end
how amazing it feels just to live again"
Going through this type of relationship you will definatly deal with hardships, but in the end of it all you will feel so alive.
It's not about a love (getting married, having kids, etc.) type of relationship. But a friendship relationship.

This song is about love, but love of his girlfriend Kate who died carrying his child on a drug overdose. "In Love and Death" CD, Bert says, "no matter how much I ever told myself that I wasn't writing songs about you ALL THE TIME I really was snd will miss you forever, Kate," so when Bert says "it's all when how you mix the two" he's talking about drugs and how it feels and how it burns a whole through people. "You never would have thought in the end how amazing if feels just to live again" he used to be and addict but cleaned up and he is telling her how amazing it is to live again. and the feeling is so great as well as her feeling on drugs.when he says "should of done something but I've done it enough, by the way your hands were shaking rather wastes some time with you" he is saying she should helped more but he has enough and she didn't listen, her hands are shaking because she is on drugs and all we wants to do is waste time with her but she is gone. "Should of said something but I've said it enough, by the way my words were faded rather waste some time with you" he said it enough for her to quit but his words were faded because she didn't listen.

I think that this song sould be about a number of things. I agree with the interpretation that it's about Quinn and Bert's friendship.
The last interpretation said that it was about his ex-girlfriend Kate. I disagree with that even though its a good idea because this song was on their self-titled album, which was released when she was still alive. He wrote that about her in the thank-yous in the newer album, "In Love And Death"

The song ISN'T about Kate. Those of you who know your "Used" history know that Bert was not dating Kate at that time (though they were friends)P but was in fact dating the ugly, the chubby, Kelly Osbourne.
He dated her for a long while (they were named "ugliest couple"), and the song is about Bert and Quinn's friendship and how, as the band grew popular, they began to fall apart. This was Bert's appology for that and him telling that no matter what he always would rather have been around Quinn then pursuing the rock star life. More of a never ending friendship promise that will always be immortalized.

Bert wrote the song about Quinn, and how Quinn helped him through his drug addictions and how they became such good friends. plus, blue and yellow go together so well, they make green!

Alright, let me get this through your heads. This song IS about BERT and QUINN's friendship. NOT ABOUT KATE! Bert and Kate didn't go out until after this record was even made. Bert was going out with Kelly Osbourne. So how can he write a song about a girl that didn't die by that yet? It maskes perfect sense that it's about Bert and Quinn, not Bert and Kate. Get facts right, if you don't know, look it up.

What I believe it means is tat the relationship is basically over and he has tried everything but he has done it enough. And he knows it hurts you but he knows tat it cannot be fixed so all he wants to do is be around you even though you aren't together. And in the end when your heart heals its the best feeling but you can't have tat feeling if your looking for it.

Should've done something but I've done it enough by the way your hands were shaking rather waste some time with you." This means that what ever he did wasn't enough....And even though he knows its not going to work ....The time spent is good times even if its a waste of time

It's not about kate. Its about his friendship with the beautiful quinn. Heard it straight from the mouth...
(it's all in how you mix the two...)
bert was the last to join the band and when he did he was crzy wacked on drugs and acted like a jackass, quinn hated him and in turn bert hated quinn back. But them something happened and quinn was there for bert for it, and thus they became best friends which is where they are at today
(never gonna find it you're looking for it. Wont come your way)
...Straight from the mouth, yo...

Idiots...
This song could be about anything to anyone who hears it. He didn't write it so everyone could think about him and quinn when they hear it.
Since it was originally written about Bert and Quinn I must admit it most surly isn't about Kate.
But this song is about love...Bert and Quin love each other. The song is not gender specific so it could be about a couple who almost lost each other but found each other again through the hardtimes.
So before you proove anyone wrong think about it people, cause it seems there are just some close-minded people in here.

ok this might sound stupid but its what I believe and I think you people are thinking to much about this. Ok, basically, its a love song he falls in love and loves the girl so much that he doesn't want to hurt her in anyway (should've done something but I'd done it enough) he means yelling at her or threatening to break up with her. (by the way you hands were shaking rather waste my time with you) ok this part is about him not wanting to break up with her and she knows he's gonna because she did something wrong and knows he found out so heres this girl her she so scared to lose this guy that her hand are shaking and this guy can't break up with her because he really loves her. He says he'll waste his time with her because he knows these things will keep happening but they'll get through it eventually.
thank you=]

I was watching a concert. &he said 'This song is called blue and yellow and it's about love'. Maybe it's about love in the way of a friendship. I dunno. But that's what he says.
This song makes me cry (it remembers me of my ex-boyfriend, the way I see it it's about love but I don't know what Bert was thinking when he wrote it you know what I mean?

This song for the millionth time IS NOT ABOUT KATE whatsoever, for those of you who consider yourself "true" Used you should know Bert wasn't even dating Kate yet, and he wrote the song about his friendship with Quinn.

I read an interview and Bert said that the song was about Bert and Quinn's relationship.
I'm pretty sure the writer of the song would not be wrong about his answer.
therefore all of those people saying its not about their friendship are wrong.
kthanksbye.

I think it's about the feeling Bert gets when he's around quinn.
