Title: Songs and colors
Post by: Izalightblue on December 28, 2009, 06:15:04 AM
Hey! Since I was a kid, there's something that happens to me when I listen to music: Once I start to listen to a song, colors show up im my head, I find it very beautiful, and for every song there are different colors, it is like the colors represent the sounds of the melody, harmony. For instance:

Britney- 3 = yellow, pink, green, silver.
Cardigans- Erase/ Rewind- brown, green, black
Backstreet Boys- Bigger- white, light blue, pink
Britney- Baby one more time - pink, black, white
Leona Lewis- Outta my head - purple , silver
Katy Perry- Hot 'n' cold- yellow, blue, red


I was wondering if this happens to any of you, if it does, let me know, I find it very nice!

Wow that's really nice. When I read your colors, I get the feeling of the songs.
I've never thought of that before. I truly like it especially:
Britney- Baby one more time - pink, black, white
Leona Lewis- Outta my head - purple , silver
They fit the songs perfectly lol. :)

Wow, I am so glad to know it happens to you too!  ;D. Thanks for liking my colors, Sforzando! :) Raul, Shape of my heart is also blue to me!  I like So What being red passion for you, Alex, though it being light green and white for me! I loved reading your colors too, it is so interesting how they can be very similar, a bit different or very different for each person!

Neither do I.

But I always imagine a story with a video to any song I like.
