"Your Blue Room" is the third track from the 1995 album, Original Soundtracks 1, recorded by U2 with Brian Eno under the pseudonym Passengers. The song was slated as the second single release for the album following "Miss Sarajevo", but it was cancelled due to poor album sales. In a 2005 Rolling Stone magazine article, Bono nominated it as one of his favorite U2 songs.^[1]

The track features U2's bass player Adam Clayton reciting the final verse; it is the only album recording featuring Clayton as vocalist. Clayton's only other vocal performance was in 1983 on "Endless Deep," which was only released as a B-side to the "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and "Two Hearts Beat as One" singles.

In addition to the Passengers album, "Your Blue Room" was later featured as a b-side on the "Staring at the Sun" single in 1997, and on the B-sides disc of The Best of 1990-2000 in 2002.
