About The color Yellow can be both Mellow and Bright.... Since I am surrounded By even richer colors in this garden I named this YELLOW- A MELLOW.... after the popular singer & song-writer of the 70's 'Donovan'....... does anyone else remember him :))

Take Care dear freind ,

Your title is very appropriate. This yellow is definately mellow. Nice details with a colour that makes it hard to capture details.

Thank YOu Shirley for the kind comment and great critique to clone out the white area ( the pot the flowers are in) I appreciate your great eye as I hadn't realized how badly it stands out until You told me :)))

Okay, love the crazy banter going on here. I'll throw in my two cents. Love the beautiful yellow snapdragons, Michele. I would clone out the little white area bottom left. I'm with Dave...hated that song, but got some chuckles out of your conversation.:)

Dave Arnold Dave Arnold   {K:55680} 7/12/2007
But technically, Biljana... you did not post the entire lyrics so I really needn't give you the ten points. On the other hand, it looks like you did it from memory so I acquiesce here and acknowledge your expert opinion.

As for 20 points, I don't think so. True dat, you are a hot lady and all... but I'll be willin to give you the 20 IF you agree with me that the lyrics both I and Michele posted are incorrect: I don't think it was "Fourteen"... but "Fontaine".

Make me right, I'll up it to 30.

Mellow Yellow
I'm just mad about Saffron
Saffron's mad about me
I'm just mad about Saffron
She's just mad about me
{Refrain}
They call me mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow
I'm just mad about Fortean
Fourteen's mad about me
I'm just mad about Fortean
She's just mad about me
{Refrain}
Born high forever to fly
Wind velocity nil
Wanna high forever to fly
If you want your cup o'er fill
{Refrain}
(So mellow, he's so yellow)
Electrical banana
Is gonna be a sudden craze
Electrical banana
Is bound to be the very next phase
They call it mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow
Saffron -- yeah
I'm just mad about her
I'm just mad about Saffron
She's just mad about me

BUT I PREFER THIS ONE:))
When rain has hung the leaves with tears,
I want you near, to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind.

For standin' in your heart,
Is where I want to be, and I long to be,
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind.

Donovan - Mellow Yellow Lyrics

I'm just mad about Saffron
Saffron's mad about me
I'm just mad about Saffron
She's just mad about me

[Refrain:]
They call me mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow

I'm just mad about Fourteen
Fourteen's mad about me
I'm just mad about Fourteen
She's just mad about me

[Refrain]

Born high forever to fly
Wind velocity nil
Wanna high forever to fly
If you want your cup our fill

[Refrain]

(So mellow, he's so yellow)

Electrical banana
Is gonna be a sudden craze
Electrical banana
Is bound to be the very next phase

They call it mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow
(Quite rightly)
They call me mellow yellow

Saffron - yeah
I'm just mad about her
I'm just mad about Saffron
She's just mad about me

[Refrain]

(Oh so yellow, oh so mellow)

____________________________________________

See how bad I am at understanding that British language... "I tried to sleep" was actually "Quite rightly". I've gone through life so wrong.

Born-a high forever to fly.
Wind-a velocity nil.
Born-a high forever to fly.
If you want your cup, I will fill.

They call me Mellow Yellow,
Quite rightly.
They call me Mellow Yellow,
Quite rightly.
They call me Mellow Yellow.

So mellow yellow..

Oh thank you so much, oh rude one. I normally abhorred any of that British music... unless it was Elton.

I see you can't get the words right either. I don't understand British speak. To me, the song was "They call it mellow yellow-I tried to sleep"... which is probably WAY wrong, too.

LOL
