Blue Eyes and Green Eyes

[mccutcheon]

I'm working on a Blue Eyes & Green Eyes CD comp. So far I have this list. Anyone want to help?

Johnny Cash- Blue Eyes (song title?)
Velvet Underground- Pale blue eyes
John Hartford- Green eyes on the train
New Order- oh you blue eyes, oh you got green eyes
Coldplay- Green eyes
Shane MacGowan- Victoria, the girl with green eyes
Cary Brothers- Blue eyes (not the greatest song)
Captain Beefheart- Her eyes are a blue million miles

Blue eyes crying in the rain

I thought that was ultimate Blue Eyes song.

I had no idea there were so many others.

And it's funny (strange, not ha,ha) green eyes by coldplay I told the guy whose green eyed girl is leaving him to put that on a cd for her, if this one is going out to the one you love, you might want to omit it; it didn't work out well for him (although she's got some killer green eyes)

This may be a stretch but "Sweet Child O' Mine" starts out:

"She's got eyes of the bluest skies as if they thought of rain. I hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain."

I'll do the Luna cover of that song.

gee, but what about the Sheryl Crow version...

Okay I got one - Green Eyes by Throwing Muses off the first album. Sung by the beautiful blonde Tanya Donnelly, later in the band Belly.

In fact I think I'm going to play that right this minute.

I'm trying to remember how that Elton John song goes...hearing bits and pieces in my brain. I think that's a pretty good one if I recall correctly.

this has the will to turn out to be a good comp.
