  Ok, this is a weird poll...Do you see words/music in colours?

Does anyone else here find that certain numbers are also certain colours? I know other people have found this to be true, that certain numbers have certain colours attached.

I want to know if anyone else has the same colours attached to the same numbers.

I also find letters have certain colours to them, and musical styles do as well.

This is an odd poll, so if something doesn't make sense, or if you don't entirely understand what I mean or how to vote, let me know.

Fairly strange poll indeed but interesting , I work on a daily basis with a ton of different colour names and as much as I wish I could attribute a number to them, there are so many slight variations they get names often quite cyptic ones given to them, rather than blue,dark blue,very dark blue, they all have Pantone numbers but they tend not to be human friendly to use .
Here's a few eg's of this seasons names we are using Sahara,Anchor ,Lichen,Platinum, Chilli,Sky, Oyster, Riveria.

I work with color all day in my job to ( Automotive Painter ) and the numbers are called color codes for all cars , but I know GM colors so well after 30 years I just look at a car and know the Paint Manufacturers # but I dont see colors in numbers though .
Just 3800 is PPG's GM truck White , 4154 is PPG's Victory Red , ect...... thats how I see colors and numbers

"I've never thought of numbers as colors"

I don't think I explained this very well. Ok, I explained it fairly poorly.

so, you have the number two. Imagine it in block letter form in your head. Big number two. What colour is it? In your head? For me, its always blue.

Now, think of the number three. What colour is it? Green for me. Everytime.

So are you saying a rainbow is God's phone number?
