White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane

Didn't Ted Nugent do a great job with:

Great White Buffalo?

Now that most of the colorful songs have already been mentioned (some twice), it's getting harder to think of more.

Stay Gold - Stevie Wonder

Silver & Gold - don't know who it was by originally, but Burl Ives did it in Rudolph, and is the version I'm familiar with.

(edit - looks like it was attributed to Johnny Marks)

I decided to tally up a scoring system for posts in this thread.
Watch for details and your score soon.
(Hopefully by the end of this month)

Just posting an update:
I will be working out of town this week but when I return,
this thread is going to the next level.

Hi all:
It took longer than expected, but here's the basic point system I came up with:

PLUS 1 POINT for each color or variation (ie- rainbow, color/colour, psychedelic) in post.

PLUS 1/2 POINT for posting the name of the artist. (Reference)
PLUS 1/2 POINT for any poster whom corrects another post.
(Example would be if a previous poster did not know the artist in their post
and a later poster mentions the answer,
then the latter poster gets a 1/2 point for the reference.)

NO POINT for lyrics (Sorry BG & LM

)
NO POINT for repeated songs (unless specified by cover band)

MINUS 1/2 POINT for no reference to song artist

I am checking-up on some of these.
(A few interesting things I've found from looking-up some of the posts.)

Any suggestions, comments, complaints, or just want to see how your points add up, please PM me.

In the future, I will try to set up an award of some kind or maybe a give-away on items.

Here's the scores as of now:

A Gunslinger - 13 points
Bloodguard Bob - 0 points
Cagliostro - 5 points
Cate - 4 points
Cheval - 42-1/2 points
Damelon - 5-1/2 points
daNdeLION - 2-1/2 points
danlo - 3 points
drew - 4 points
Elfgirl - 6 points
Esmer - - 1/2 point
jererak - 1 point
Lorelei - 2 points
Lucimay - 8 points
Onewyteduck - 3 points
Phantasm - 2-1/2 points
sgt.null - 12 points
Trapper - 5 points
