Guster’s “Keep It Together” and OK Go’s “Oh No” are both orange.

Did your friend mean the cover or the CD itself? I know that \*\*Incubus - Make Yourself \*\* is a completely orange CD, but the cover is [not](http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/3/3c/MakeYourself.jpeg).

[Roy Harper, Jugula](http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/105-4787019-1322046?initialSearch=1&url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=roy+harper+jugula&Go.x=0&Go.y=0&Go=Go) is very orange. It is also one of the cherished few on my desert island list. 🙂

And **Massive Attack, Mezzanine** does not have an orange cover, but the cd itself is completely flourescent orange with no text or printing. Does that count?

[QUOTE=Rubystreak]  
The cover of [REM - Green](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Green_REM.jpg) is ironically, orange.  
[/QUOTE]

And the cover of [the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion’s “Orange”](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange_%28album%29) is, of course, not.

As far as I can tell, the only albums with mostly orange covers I own are [Belle & Sebastian - Dear Catastophe Waitress](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dear_Catastrophe_Waitress) and [Old 97’s - Too Far To Care](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Too_Far_To_Care) .

[Bush’s Sixteen Stone](http://rockonzine.homestead.com/files/16stone.jpg) has something of an orange tint to it.

For the most part, we were talking about the covers. I honestly do not know what more than half of my actual CDs look like.

Thanks everyone for that… you should see what my start page at Amazon looks like now!

I will be sure to give due credit when she is presented with the list.

Oh! I got another one!

The soundtrack album to the (massive underrated) movie _Out of Sight_ is [very, very orange](http://www.amazon.com/Out-Sight-Music-Motion-Picture/dp/B000007QEB). The CD itself is almost entirely orange as well.
