Colors in songs?
« on: October 02, 2005, 01:45:31 AM »
OK, this thread just popped into my mind. Eddie Van Halen, guitar god, says Van Halen's music sounds 'brown', hence his famous Brown Sound. Do some GNR songs have a certain 'color' sound to them, in your opinion? For me, i say all GNR songs are black or red, except some UYI tracks, like November Rain, Civil War, etc. I just want you view on this, see what color sounds you get from GNR.

yeah ... exectaly!
My michelle is my first song I heard from GNR! It's in SK8 Adio Video ... n that part is just kick ass!! I was waiting on the credits when I finally found the song ... then downloaded it with few more tracks from GNR ... started love their music ... bought AFD ... ... ... and now I'm here  :grin:

And yeah my michelle sounds exectaly like red color ... Other AFD songs like WTTJ, Nightrain, Rocket Queen is for me like black ... Ballads like Patience, Don't Cry, November Rain are like puprle
And Estranged, Coma, My World is like every color together!

I never condsiered =VH='s music to be brown at all. My first VH record was Best Of Volume 1, so ive always seen VH music in black, and the album covers color, like Diver Down would be red, and 5150 would be like a green or gold. Maybe Fair Warning is brown for me, i dunno. I still think its odd. But you say Paradise city is green, where i see black & red, so a lotta people are gonna think differently about some.

Not ALL of it. In a Guitar World interview he stated that VAN HALEN SONGS sound brown. But youre not entirely wrong. Before this statement he did say his guitars had a certain Brown Sound to them, which i dont see in either song or his guitars.

mmm interesting topic... well, I think Don't Cry is blue, as well as The Blues or November Rain. Estranged is dark blue, maybe purple. Coma is black. Civil War white. You Ain't The First is yellow :)
