I'll start off with Western Star and mention that he even includes the french version of the word.

So,

1. Western Star

Which others?

One of my favorites...

SUGAR DADDY:

Black strap molasses,
You're my orange blossom honey bear.
Bring me Versace blue jeans
And black designer underwear...

sorry pixiesteve. didn't mean to steal your thunder. but you should be happy for me! if it makes you feel any better i cheated. i too utilized the song database. but i did know the bluish all in black- just couldn't remember what song it was from.

here's a pixies one:

number 13 - black tear falling on my lazy queen.

Ah scruvs. I thought about it all night and remembered Changing of the Guard and now you, the ruiner have already mentioned it. Good call though. I realized that there were many references to black, but never this many.

Yeah, here's one from DITS. I found this one in the song database here at fb.net

DOG IN THE SAND
Where the water glows
Where the water glows
Bluish all in black
Where the forest grows

I want to go back (x2)

over blacktop soft beneath the sun - So. Bay

I doubt anyone will find another song that wasn't on an official album, I think the only one without a mention is DW.
scruvs Posted - 11/08/2005 : 20:46:28
I cheated and looked something up in the song database, but I don't care.

"Stupid Me"
I'd practice a black art

"Stupid Me" (acoustic)
I'd practice a blaaaaaaack art

Comin' through in the clutch. Thanks Kathryn.
Well, I am off. Talk to ya'll tomorrow.
I think I am going to listen to my b-sides and rarities to see what references might be in them. Have we covered each album?

Would you accept "blackened"?

Thank you people. I am sitting here at work trying as hard as possible to get the tune in my head but it was too difficult with all of these sharks feeding on the scrappel.

"Its a long away across all of this black" is from Big Red
"And some went back, they couldn't face the black" is from So Hard..

Big Red -- "it's a long way across of all this black"

Brian's right. So Hard To Make Things Out -- " some went back, they couldn't face the black, and they're going back today with their personal things"

Other songs, obviously, Men in Black and Old Black Dawning

Also, Strange Goodbye -- "I used to walk in a big black cloud"
