"Scream in Blue" is a song by Midnight Oil from their 1982 studio album, "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1". It is the longest song on the album (by 38 seconds), featuring an extremely esoteric yet also very intense, perhaps somewhat progressive rock-inflected intro - for which the song is probably best remembered - just over two minutes in length. After this, the song becomes very quiet and keyboard-driven, allowing Garrett's vocals to become dominant.

Compilations

Discounting re-packagings, the song has been featured on no compilations.

Live versions

The song was performed sporadically throughout the band's history. While on tour for "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1" the full song was performed occasionally. At other times, it re-appeared, yet usually as only the intro. An example of this from 1990 can be found on the live album Scream in Blue (which derives its name from this track). Otherwise, no live versions have been officially released.
