Is it strange that Yellow the color between green and orange is my favorite. 
Very, but not entirely strange, yes. I find it's subtle shades to be quite pleasing myself.
I prefer a light yellow. Like that of subtle sunlight in the morning. 
Ah yes, but dark yellow does have it's good qualities as well!
Dark yellow reminds me of pee. Yellow was one of the first colors used in art 17,000 years ago.
