Spirit in the Sky vs Blithe Blue
Spirit in the Sky is a Benjamin Moore color while Blithe Blue comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. With LRVs of 46 and 46, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Spirit in the Sky's blue character against Blithe Blue's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 1.2, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
