Bittersweet and Blue is the second album by British singer-songwriter Gwyneth Herbert.

Herbert's version of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart", taken from the album, was featured on the soundtrack of romantic comedy Leap Year, directed by Anand Tucker and starring Amy Adams and Matthew Goode.

Linda Serck, reviewing Bittersweet and Blue for musicOMH, described it as "a stunning album" from a "great jazz talent" who "embodies all the smoky jazz boozers she's ever sung in and tacitly commands you to prick up your ears and listen".

[2] John Fordham, in a four-starred review for The Guardian, praised Herbert's "precociously powerful chemistry of taste and meticulous care for every sound – from a whisper to an exhortation.

"[1] The album was produced and engineered by Pete Smith and was recorded and mixed at Townhouse Studios in west London between June and July 2004.
