Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: Jean(eanjay) Date: 07 Oct 07 - 01:53 PM I just cannot work out the remaining 2 from the original list. |
Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: Sooz Date: 07 Oct 07 - 01:58 PM Time to come clean. A few weeks ago my sister gave me a list of 50 of these, asking for my help. We were down to the last half dozen which stumped us so I decided to ask you lot. The twenty I posted included these! WGL is "We'll gather lilacs", but I'm still no nearer to finding BGBE. |

Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: pdq Date: 07 Oct 07 - 02:12 PM I see the problem, Sooz. BGBE isn't actually a song, it's how somebody tunes his tenor banjo! |

Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: Jean(eanjay) Date: 07 Oct 07 - 02:52 PM pdq, what about BGBE? I just cannot work it out - do you think there could have been a misprint before it came to mudcat? |

Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: pdq Date: 07 Oct 07 - 03:06 PM BGBE may be a mis-print. Or, it could be an obscure Irish protest song, of which (by choice) I know sqwat. |
Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: pdq Date: 07 Oct 07 - 03:29 PM BY = Blue Yodel? actually, PH was gone with Purple Haze, but Purple Heather works fine too |
Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: fat B****rd Date: 07 Oct 07 - 04:05 PM Yup, pdq, Blue Yodel it is BGBE ??????????? |
Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: pdq Date: 07 Oct 07 - 04:11 PM BGBE is #10 on Sooz' list. See opening post of thread. It is the only one not yet covered. Let's seee, Blue, Black, Beige, Blonde... |
Subject: RE: BS: Songs with colours quiz From: Jean(eanjay) Date: 07 Oct 07 - 04:16 PM Could E stand for eyes? blue eyes, black eyes, brown eyes Or emerald? Could G be girl? Or green or gold? I've tried all sorts of combinations but I think I'm going to have to give up, at least for this evening! |
