Thread Name: Orange: forbidden fruit (or colour)
Subject: Orange: forbidden fruit (or colour)
When I posted 'Old Orange Flute' a month ago you (all) were so polite not to point out that this song is already in the DT database. And I sure had searched for it for I hate double work. Now I found it while searching for 'croppies'. So I know it's in there, but I don't get it out searching for [orange flute]. I get nothing at all when I search for 'Orange'. I made a test and searched for 'apple' and got a lot of songs, some of them even telling about 'oranges'. I then made the final test and searched for the colour 'green' and had lots of hits. (Why just Green? Ah, let's not start this again, I could have taken any colour for a test). Forget all this rambling and just answer this:

What makes 'orange' a forbidden word for a search? I'm puzzled.
