Thought it would take forever to check if there was already a thread, but surprisingly, only seven or eight screens of colour/color ILM threads--and only bands/albums. Post about your favourite songs with a colour in the title. Prompted by hearing this in the car today:

(Thread title from Donovan's "Colours," not eligible for inclusion because it doesn't mention a colour in its title.)

There are probably a lot of titles containing "blues" ... does that count or not?

I'd say no, just like "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter" wouldn't count. Actual colours.

Went through the last two favourite-songs lists I drew up--a Top 100 on Facebook in 2010 and a Top 50 for rockcritics.com in 2021--and found six:
"Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," CSN"Blue Eyes," International Submarine Band"George Bush Doesn't Care About Black People," Legendary K.O. "Big Blue Bus," Stupid Cupids"Red, White and MILF," Figghole (about Sarah Palin...great song, but apologies)"Black and White," Db's

also every second or third ELO song is about blue things
this is like asking 'what songs have 'night' in the title'

"Post about your favourite songs with a colour in the title"--just naming songs would be unwieldly, agree, but I was thinking more of all-time favourites.
