In 2019, the band's major label albums were re-issued on vinyl, with a re-issue of High charting at number 74 in the UK charts after being released by Confetti Records on 5 June 2020 as vinyl or double CD edition. Legacy The band has influenced future musicians such as Duncan Sheik, who covered the song "Stay", as well as Wild Beasts. The 1975 lead singer Matt Healy labeled The Blue Nile his "favorite band of all time" and declared Hats to be his "favorite record of the ‘80s." Healy would describe The 1975's 2018 song "Love It If We Made It" as the "Blue Nile on steroids", while critics drew comparisons between the song's construction and that of "The Downtown Lights".
