Pseudo-Synesthesia

So turns out finding yourself plagued all day by a song stuck in your head that you haven't heard in a while may actually be from something we saw. 

"According to a study headed by scientist Stephen Palmer, we are hardwired to associate anything from Mozart to Mumford & Sons with a particular hue from the color spectrum. Whether it's a classical composition or an indie pop ballad, we automatically make music-color connections based on how the various melodies make us feel [...] insinuating that humans might share a "common emotional palette" that can cross cultural barriers." (read the full article here)

Ohhh, art. 

Wonder what this one sounds like?
