The discography of Blue, an English boy band, consists of three studio albums, five compilation albums, one remix album, seventeen singles and thirteen music videos. The band originally formed in 2000, releasing three studio albums, All Rise (2001), One Love (2002) and Guilty (2003) that all peaked at number one in the United Kingdom alongside releasing sixteen singles, over a four-year period. The group also worked alongside artists such as Stevie Wonder, Elton John and Lil Kim. In late 2004, the group announced that they would be going on a two-year hiatus and released their first compilation album, Best of Blue on 15 November 2004. However in 2005, the group confirmed that they would be splitting due to wanting to pursue solo careers.

On 28 April 2009, the group announced that they had reformed. Blue released their fourth studio album, Roulette on 25 January 2013 with "I Can". The song "Hurt Lovers" was released as second single on 22 April 2013.
