Some types do. Really runny lava, or hot lava, like Hawaiian-type lava, does glow because it's so hot (like when you heat a piece of metal). Really viscous (sticky) lava, however, has a solidifying skin on top because the lava has cooled down. It's sort of like custard (except custard never glows)

Is any lava blue?

No. The glow of lava is a product of something called blackbody radiation. At the temperatures that lava reaches, it can't produce more than a red glow. Blue blackbody radiation requires extremely high temperatures not even found in Earth's core. One article discussed "blue lava" from one volcano. In reality it was not lava but molten sulfur, which caught fire and burned with a blue flame.
