Music & Color: Yellow

[meahtenoha]

Ever thought a song sounds warm? Or makes you feel red?

Do you see yellow as soon as your favorite album from high school starts playing?

There's a lot of ways to share, experience, describe and discover music. And we'd like to start a few threads focusing on Music & Color.

How does it work?

1. Think of a song that you would associate with the color yellow.

2. Right-click the song in Spotify and click 'Copy Spotify URI'

3. Click 'Insert/edit link' in a reply to this thread

4. Paste the URI

5. Click OK

6. Go to color-hex.com.

7. Find the perfect shade of yellow to match your song.

8. Copy the hex code and paste it below the song.

We'll then build an infographic that displays the songs and colors. It's an experiment for sure, but we're curious to see how this works with all your contributions.

Thanks for your continued input into this thread! The response has been great.

We're collating the data we've gathered and we're looking into informative / visual ways we can explore this further. 

If you're still seeing flashes of yellow, sunbeams, beachs or daffodils - add your tracks to the thread and we'll keep collating. 

Here's one more for luck. https://open.spotify.com/track/3n74JdAdR7b6NMkMyGZYzc

First of all, amazing idea! With this song I thought of this shade of yellow.

Really interesting project!

Coincidentally I've been working on a series of playlists based on the color spectrum.

Since this thread is focused on yellow I'll just share that one 🙂

The song I associate with a yellow-ish color is Happy Face by Jagwar Twin. It's a much darker yellow than most of these replies though.

That's an awesome question. Definitely, this track sounds like yellow :
