[edit] Single Releases

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 Kennerly, and he also wrote "Blue Side Of Town", which was the lead track on her previous album, "Honky Tonk Angel".

The song charted for 17 weeks on the Billboard Hot Country Singles and Tracks chart, reaching #22 during the week of 20 July 1991.
