Music is art.

Music is audible art, it paints a picture!

In your head. Music can transport your mind into any scenario, memory or sensation. Certain soundtracks remind me of books, specific P!NK songs remind me of when I was twelve and went to Perth on holiday.

My Top ten songs of this week:

1. The Emperors New Clothes - Panic! at the Disco
2. Sorry For Party Rocking - LMFAO
3. Counting Stars - OneRepublic
4. Black Magic - Little Mix
5. Shut Up and Dance - Walk The Moon
6. Caffeine - Jeff Williams and Casey Lee Williams feat. Lamar Hall
7. Downtown - Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (come on! the lyrics are freaking hilarious!)
8. Happy - Pharrell Williams
9. Wake Me Up - Avicii
10. Timber - Pit Bull feat. Ke$ha

These are the songs that get me out of my chair dancing around and feeling good. Sometimes, however, you can just sit somewhere comfortable, close your eyes and paint a picture in your mind of whatever the song inspires.

And then there are people with a rare condition called synesthesia, which means they can actually see sound as colour. Here is some synesthesia art:

These paintings are amazing representations of sound, you can basically see movement through the paint. So bright and amazing! I would love to know what sound inspired these works, especially the second one which reminds me of a waterfall. I have noticed that these paintings have quite dark backgrounds with lots of blues, with reds and pinks thrown in too. This could be because they are from the same artist, I can only imagine how they must view the world...

Ciao! xox
