Ok, inspired by gina_lash, who suggested the need for a new alphabeticals-style game, perhaps based around colours, here's a new 'tag' game for y'all.
Here's the rules.
* A colour is picked.
* You need to name a NEW ZEALAND song which has that colour either in the title OR in the lyrics somewhere.
* When you've named one, you continue with a new colour.
* You MUST have a song in mind when you pick a colour. There's no point picking turquoise or something else mad if the likelihood is there's no corresponding answer. righto, let's start with an easy one...

I think it was from listening to rhombus last night -- and the number of times they manage to namedrop themselves in each track -- I was kinda off on a tangent where a classic Nun band might be tempted to try the same trick.
neck's a bit better. a bit stiff -- just about back to the normal OOS level of vague achiness. cheers.
