I think RAINBOW is most obvious. monochrome (as well as probably every other song on ASFXX and LOVEppears) are pretty much... grey.

Bold & Delicious, SEASONS
Moments
rainy day
part of Me
HANABI, ourselves, GAME

I don't think this is a weird thread, because I also associate songs with colors.

P.S II - colours associated with the night: dark blue, brown, white (for the stars)
WHATEVER - blue and white<3
too late - neonish green
appears - brown
monochrome - light blue (the colour of the cloudless sky)
LOVE ~refrain~ - see P.S II.
Who... - light pink
kanariya - like LOVE~refrain~ and P.S II.

Duty: mostly dark, firm colours.

I think the same thing about rock songs!
When I think of the GUILTY album, I think of orange and brown.

Go to this web site: here!

talkin' 2 myself
red
(energy, determination, passion)
The color definitely relates to the song.

BLUE BIRD
deep sky blue
(peaceful, sincere, affectionate)
Weird, huh?

Sorry for the double post.

I'm really glad you liked it~ My friends have enough of my babbling about colours. ("You know, I feel violet today..." "I think 3 is a very green number and 5 is yellow"). As for the brown being the colour of the rock genre - I think the rock music is very... well, earthy, I mean, it's loud and firm and makes you sure you're standing "on the ground". The techno, dance or trance music has intense abstract colours, 'cause I think listening to those genres makes you feel like flying to the sky. :3
I'm weird, I know...

My friends and I do the same thing, haha. 3 is a green number. We think alike.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who associates songs with colors! Seriously, every song I've ever listened to gives off different vibes to me, and I'm glad I'm not alone. My association has nothing to do with covers or music videos though, I dunno why. I think I have this.

Here are some of my fav. songs and the colors they give me:

M - A bunch. Brown, red, green, blue, yellow.
still alone - purple, pink, red, blue
Together When... - brown, light blue, yellow
decision - dark and light green, cerulean
fated - brown, orange, fuschia, pink
HEAVEN - pink, yellow, dark and light green
talkin' 2 myself - brown, red, orange
HANABI - purple, pink, grey
Close to you - orange, pink, red
Connected - green, dark blue, grey, black
Far away - grey, yellow, dark green
Untitled ~for her~ - light green, purple, pink, grey
JEWEL - pink, grey
criminal - purple, dark green, yellow
winding road - green, yellow, brown
A Song for XX - light blue, yellow
Pride - grey, white, black, tan
ever free - yellow, purple, pink, orange

There are plenty more, of course, I just didn't want to list all 148 of them.

After reading that wiki page, I think I have almost all kinds of synesthesia. A few years ago I read a book about a boy with synesthesia - at those times I didn't associate EVERYTHING with colours, scents or flavours, but I started to think I MIGHT have this phenomenon.
However, it helps me a lot since I draw a lot - people often tell me I have a great intuition in associating colours with emotions on my drawings...

WHY NOT? XD It's always fun to read!

BTW, I just remembered about part of Me, which is deep pink... and ever free, which is light pink.

Yeah, I think I only have the music - color one to be honest. But it actually helps me enjoy music more, so I'm not complaining.
