Blue Monday Color – #637983: Codes and Complete Breakdown

Blue Monday shares its name with New Order’s 1983 track, still the best-selling 12-inch single of all time with sales past two million, whose title came from a Kurt Vonnegut illustration reading “Goodbye Blue Monday.” The color matches the song’s mood: a cool, downtempo slate-blue with melancholy in it. The Blue Monday color code suits a moody, contemplative space.
