A blue note is the pitch slightly below the third, fifth, or seventh of the scale (usually the third or seventh). This is usually only found in blues or jazz. Blue notes add color to the music because they stick out a little bit because they have a unique sound that doesn't sound quite right in relation to all the other notes of the scale.
