* One game in ''Radio/ImSorryIHaventAClue'' was to improvise a Blues song. The title would always be in this form (eg, "The Trichologist's Blues" or "The Kerry Packer Blues"). In one case the song was called "The West Indies Blues", but was sung as a calypso.

Common method of naming things "The (Something) Blues". [[CaptainObvious Very prevalent in Blues music,]] although there are also many, ''many'' non-blues songs with a title like this.

* The third VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas DLC is ''Old World Blues''. The DLC [[TitleDrop mentions]] it as an in-universe term for extreme, crippling nostalgia to the point that you can't really operate in the here-and-now -- though a good karma ending has it evolve into a more positive term, with greater respect for the potential of Old World Blues to turn to New World Hope (an ''evil'' karma ending solidifies the old meaning and pairs it with New World ''Misery'').

* An unusual example is found in ''Film/AdventuresInBabysitting'', when Chris and the kids accidentally wander onto the stage of a blues club and are told that "Nobody gets off stage without singing the blues." The teenager is forced to make up a song on the spot, which is of course called "The Babysitting Blues." It works.
