Cool fact about me: I can color and see music.

I got Chromesthesia. Some songs appear grey, blue, red, orange, yellow, green, all sorts of colors to me. If I was any good a painter, I'd paint what I see when I hear music. It's beautiful.

I can't make that connection personally. Is it something textural? The notes that are hit? Which colors are a male or female voice?

@uncalled4 the tonality of the song is like a base coat if color. The voices or other instruments playing over it have their own unique signature of color. For an example, when I listen to the sound of silence I see dominantly shades of grays. When lead singer of Disturbed, David Draiman starts singing. I see a subtle black line like a heart beat monitor. As he sings the chorus and the second verses I see more colors like reds and something you'd see in a sunset. Then as it fades again, it mellows out to blues and grays. Pretty wild.

It doesn't obstruct my field of vision. It's in my mind's eye but it's uncontrollable
