Liquid O2 and solid O2 have a light blue color and both display unusual paramagnetic properties, due to the negative exchange energy between neighbouring 02, . Liquid O2 is usually obtained by the fractional distillation of liquid air."

In case you're wondering:
Liquid and solid O3 (ozone) have a deeper color of blue
