colour popen

When one ventures into the outside world late at night (between 3am and 6am looking for more booze/sex/drugs in particular), and decides to wear as many inappropriate and brightly coloured clothes as possible simultaneously, they are said to be a colour popen. Reasons for dressing like a colour popen can vary from sheer idiocy, undesiarable weather conditions and/or being highly intoxicated.

"Jesus Christ almighty, and Moses and Joseph and all the saints above! Jenny and Jemima ye look like fuckin' colour popens the pair of ye!"

Ocean Colour Scene

An amazing english band that have been around for more than a decade (lets see which crappy pop act can last that long nowadays!). Absolutely fantastic live! Despite the departure of bassist Damon, they will remain excellent.
Often shunned by critics, but have continued none the less due to a solid and ever growing fan base.
Collaborated with the likes of Paul Weller.
