I thought hearing color was a natural phenomenon until I read that it is actually considered a disease or disorder of some sort called Synesthesia (link below) I have read reviews where the author will describe a component as sounding like a particular color, usually shades of warm or cool. I often do the same but will sometimes hear other colors as well. I'm curious if others hear color or have ever thought about it?
