1 is grey, 2 is a light blue, 3 is red, 4 is yellow, 5 is light green, 6 is black, 7 is orange, 8 is a dark red, 9 a dark blue.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Are you German? German notation has H instead of B and B-flat is labeled as B. Hence why Bach was able to use his name as a theme in many of his pieces (B-A-C-H).

Finnish. We also use H for B and B for Bb.
EDIT: Makes me think of a joke we used to make in my Music Theory class. It's a Swedish pun, I'll try to translate to the best of my ability.
Pianisten till den andra:
"Skall vi ta H#?"
"Vi får väl C."
H# is pronounced 'hiss', which means 'elevator/lift' and C is pronounced 'se [long e, pronounced like the e's in 'elevator']. So the conversation goes:
The pianist to the other:
"Shall we take the elevator."
"We shall see."
The pun being that on the piano keys, H# and C are the same key.

Why don't people use the proper notes?
Do, a deer, a female deer
Re, a drop of golden sun
Mi, a name I call myself
Fa, a long long way to run
Sol, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow sew
Ti, I drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to do...oh oh oh
