I get this when I have a migraine. I see people as colours, mostly green and blues. The lighter the shade the nicer they are.
Echoes
oh this is real? I hear music when I see colors and shapes example how someone decorates their home its like their personal song

I have colors that I associate with different names. The name Jennifer always has a purple feel. John has a blue feel. Amanda is a pale yellow. Eric is green
