True colours

True colours is a really nice compliment! You usually say it to people who stand out and show there thoughts and feelings! It can also be an insult. You could say to someone that there true colours are showing or shining through. This means they might be pretending to be nice but inside are not!

Positive way : Emily your true colours are showing!
Thank you Kate
Negative way : Draven your true colours are showing I cannot believe you!
I'm so sorry Kate!

coloured paper

Money

Paper money i.e. Notes could be described as coloured paper. There are some instances where the term *money* cannot be used.

I expect to get some coloured paper for my services.

Living Colour

A rock band of Black Americans popular in the late 80s - mid 90s. They played a fusion of heavy metal and funk, tho they also experimented with other styles and genres, too. Living Colour wrote mature, intelligent lyrics to their songs. I saw them on David Letterman in the end of the 80s and they were stunning to the max. They were playing "Which Way to Your America?". The singer Corey Glover(who'd make a fine gospel singer) was screaming out the words like his life depended on it. Guitarist Vernon Reid ranks with the Edge, Jimi Hendrix and other guitar heroes. Bassist Muzz Skillings and drummer Will Calhoun churned out the rhythm. It was trandescent and the band got a big time standing o. In the 90s Muzz was replaced by Doug Wimbish. Living Colour broke down racial barriers in FM rock radio. They disbanded in 1995.

I saw Living Colour live in early 1991. They were magnificent. They rocked down the house. The opening act, Urban Dance Squad, got us primed up.

Eeeeeeeeyo! What's your favorite color, baby?

LIVING COLOUR!

Chino colours

When a scene in a movie or tv show is set at a very sad, depressing, gloomy place there is often a blue-ish og red-ish glow to everything. This gives a pretty dark feeling and underlines the sad/scary suspense.
The name comes from the episodes The O.C. When the setting is chino, wether the characters have travelled there or not, there is always a gloomy blue-ish glow to everything.

Wow dude, i was watching a movie where the main character dies. And at his funeral everything was in chino colours.
