Welcome to the sixth in the series of Challenges.
Between October 1962 and May 1970, The Beatles released 24 singles, 13 EPs, 13 Albums, with a total of 293 tracks.
COLOUR IN LYRICS CHALLENGE
Below is an alphabetical list of colour-related words which appear in officially released Beatles songs.
The Challenge is to find which word appears in which song, or songs.
Hints/clues:
Some words appear in more than one song. In such cases, the number of songs in which the word is in is shown in [x].
Some songs contain more than one of the words on the list. In these cases, you need to find each word and post each answer in a separate post.
Note: you are not looking for other colour-related words which may be in the lyrics of Beatles` songs but those in the list. Should you find any of the words in songs not on my list, as in the previous Challenges, I will re-check my sources and give my verdict with an explanation as to my decision
No "live" recording; BBC sessions; Polydor records; bootlegs; unreleased tracks.
Rules:
Please, no googling, wiki, social media, iplayer, youtube, personal record collection [e.g. album sleeves] in search of the answers. Of course, listening to songs is permitted.
You may submit one answer for one word in one song per post - not two or more songs where the same word appears - and can only post one answer per day.
Each entry should be submitted as [colour-related word] in [name of song it appreas in].
This Challenge will open at 11pm tomorrow [Monday 13 May] when you can submit your first answer up to 11pm Tuesday, when the first results will be announced.
On each subsequent day/night, answers can be submitted after midnight until 11pm.
The list of colour-related words is given in the next post.
Good luck.

Okay, @Cleoriff, how did I manage to beat you - The Fastest Finger In The West
Was totally shocked to not see you before me after I'd posted.
Sorry but you shouldn't do that to me, I can't cope with being first
And I see the Awesome Threesome, together again

To be honest I was watching another episode of Our Planet and took my eye off the ball...or the clock.
Rather a second or two late, than early. That will never do....
