I don't have much hope of this being the correct answer, but maybe it's worth a try:

"One of Us Cannot Be Wrong"

"when the wind tore off your clothes
and I guess he just never got warm
but you stand there so nice
in your blizzard of ice"

Oh. I wasn't expecting that.

This catches me totally unprepared.

No, it doesn't, actually.

I think my last few riddles were far too easy. So here's a tougher one:

orange
violet
green
white
pink
glowing
pale

Hi Hartmut,

Probably not a correct solution to the riddle with this. The colors/visuals may have been
hallucinations experienced by the people who drank the laced cider in "Closing Time."

No.

This riddle is similar to Roman's previous one.

Hi Hartmut,

Deleted my previous post that said, "Really?" Mentioning this in order to bring context to your
reply to it. As that is now edited, this isn't helpful. Would have been surprised if my answer
was correct.

Hi,

A possible allusion to a life being like a glow is found in which song? Millenials are least likely to
correctly answer this one.

Hi Steven,

Might it be the line "a brief elaboration of a tube" from "Going Home"?

That was fun. Clever description.

Do another one!

I'll refrain from answering (should I know the answer), so that everybody else gets a chance as well.
