Subject: A colourless quiz - fully blacked out

4. My Green Sea
  Paint It Black - Rolling Stones Indy Gent

5. Read 'em and weep
  The Ace of Spades - Motorhead Taoist

6. Oh, no Please God help me
  Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath (though I would also have accepted NIB) Tao

7. How to rock rock rock
  A song about a stretch-limbed female by one of Old Possum's cats
  Long legged woman dressed in black - Mungo Jerry southernspitfire

8. Long way from home
  Black Night - Deep Purple Taoist

9. They say I’m a myth
  Appropriate coloured attire approaching orgasm (show you agree)
  Black Suits Comin' (Nod ya head) - Will Smith southernspitfire

10.A child will smack your face
  A dark big hill, with a different colour
  Black Mountain Blues - Janis Joplin southernspitfire


Enjoy

Phil

Hey Phil!

#5. Just like the gambler said 'Read 'em and weep...' "

But that is from "It Makes No Difference" by the Band, and since there is no "black" in the tile, I know that is not what you intended.... (Do I still get credit, tho'? ;D ;D )

Correct!  That is not what I intended ;-)

I can think of another couple of songs with "Read 'em and weep" in (including one with that as a title)... So you do get the credit for a wrong answer ;-)
