Don't think I've ever seen anyone discuss this. I'll start with AFD.

Welcome To The Jungle = Green and black

It's So Easy = Brown and black

Nightrain = Purple and black

Out Ta Get Me = Black

Mr. Brownstone = Brown

Paradise City = Green

My Michelle = Black

Out Ta Get Me = Yellow and white

Sweet Child O' Mine = Red

You're Crazy = White

Anything Goes = White

Rocket Queen = Black

This is an excellent and thought provoking topic that I have given a great deal of time and consideration into too. I too am shocked that no one else has come up with idea.

  • Welcome to the Jungle - Crimson
  • It's So Easy - Pink
  • Nightrain - Turquoise
  • Out ta Get Me - Mauve
  • Mr. Brownstone - Chartreuse
  • My Michelle - Indigo
  • Think about You - Periwinkle
  • SCOM - Ochre
  • CRAZY - Fuchsia
  • ANYTHING Cerulean
  • ROCKET QUEEN - Vermilion

You and downzy should consider sticking and promoting this thread for all too see, so that everyone can contribute their thoughts on the colors they associate with each song.

I have synaesthesia. Since I was a child, songs have always made me see colours and patterns in my mind, so this thread is actually relevant to me (although I imagine it must seem absolutely insane to people who don't :lol: ).

Welcome to the Jungle is a mixture of black and earthy tones.
It's so Easy is brown.
Nightrain is red.
Out Ta Get Me is electric blue.
Mr. Brownstone is a mixture of blue and earthy tones.
Paradise City is bright yellow.
My Michelle is dark grey and neon pink.
Think About You is black and gold.
Sweet Child O' Mine is bright blue up until the solo, where it turns red and black.

Etc.

My Michelle - Darker shade of red

Estranged - deep Blue

The Garden - a dull yellow

Coma - some type of orangey yellow for most of it, red when the lower variation of the riff is played (aka the part with the "bitches" and doctors talking), and a dim green in the middle interlude

Prostitute- pink and light blue, maybe cyan

There was a time - mostly purple & pink

Better - Yellowy

Pretty Tied Up - Cyan-ish

Rocket Queen - a shade in between red and purple

I agree with brown for ISE

My World - TV static, but the kind that has specs of color in it
