LOL! I kept thinking of games that would be really cheap/ridiculous/could be done in a backyard. Backyard (drunken, possibly inflatable) Nidhogg anyone?

How about an Assassin's Creed climbing wall?

It is probably the guy in the skull mask, calling it now.

Nah, he's just doing some creepy sh*t to that lady with the donks in the basement. White slavery, if I had to guess.

HAPPY HUMMMMMMMP DAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

What is the best song with a color in the title?

Yellow - Coldplay
RamJam - Black Betty
AC/DC - Back in Black

I'm sure there are tracks from less popular bands that I like, but I've always really liked "Paint It Black."

Paint It Black - The Rolling Stones

WHOOOooaaa

Dammit now the song is in my head.

My choice for best song:

Tie between Pearl Jam - Black and Metric - Black Sheep

Certainly not one of the best songs out there, but my mind went straight for Eiffel 65's "Blue (Da Ba Dee)". Memories of my youth, I guess.
Honorable mentions: Enya's "Caribbean Blue", Sneaker Pimps' "Blue Movie" and "Black Sheep", IamX's "Old Red Light", Paul Young's "Now I Know What Made Otis Blue", Orgy's "Blue Monday", Michael Jackson's "Black or White", Weird Al's "White & Nerdy", King Crimson's "Red".
Definitely +1's on Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black" and Coldplay's "Yellow".

Gosh, do I have to choose one?

Are we being picky enough that black and white aren't colours, but shades?

I don't think we're getting that picky, no.

No because there are too many good songs that include them! We're going by the pre-school definition of color. Or colour, for you classy non-'Mericans.

I think I know what SixteenBlue's choice would be.

Ahh Type-O, such an uplifting, optimistic band.

Can't get any more colour than this:

Type O Negative -> Black No. 1

...and less color than this:

Procol Harum -> Whiter Shade of Pale

Cab Calloway - Saint James Infirmary Blues

in honor of the retirement...

First answer got it right. Why are we still naming songs?

I just found this list. There are many songs that sound better than old gravel voice.

The Stones are up there so that's that.

Haha. Bad Bad Leroy Brown.

Did some random searching for color names in my iTunes library. Lots of great songs with colors in their names. And yes, my tastes are a bit... eclectic.....

Recoil - Electro Blues for Bukka White (BONUS! 2 colors!)

Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod (Redline/Whiteline Version (does this count? It's better than the original... <g>)

Professor Kliq - Green

Carbon Leaf - Pink

Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Aphex Twin - Yellow Calx

Great Big Sea - A Boat Like Gideon Brown

Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze

Without cheating or looking at lists, these two off the top of my head:

I'ma browse my Zune and see if I can find other colors. There have to be songs using red or yellow or blue or something in them.

EDIT: Gah! How could I forget to add ELO to the list?!
