I like blue colour.
I like the colour blue.

Are both sentences correct and why?

Thanks!

@tanguatlay,
The first sentence sounds stilted.

As in the second sentence, the first sentence is using "colour" as a countable noun, so you need to use "the" before "blue," if you're referring to a particular blue color, or if you're referring to blue colors in general, use the plural "colours."
