Colors in songs?

[gnrrocks2005]

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.

at first I thought this sounded like shiit... then i listened to my michelle... and I sorta saw what you meant... to me my michelle sounds totally "red"... although that might just be because I want it to cause you said so


.....i might see what your sayin though, thats wierd... if i had to pic a color though, i'd go with what you said, red

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  

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!

November rain and Nightrain are purple in my opinion...

I always seen My Michelle as yellow and Paradise City blue and yellow.But Welcome To The Jungle is green and black,no doubt about that.

my michelle green, rocket queen purple

[mr. moustache]

estraned = greenish yellow
civil war = blue
SCOM = white, light blue
chinese dem = gray

[gnrrocks2005]

Ok, now that i have time ill give what i think:

Anything off AFD - Red & Black
Patience & Used To Love Her - White & Red
Use Your Illusion I - Red, Black, and Orange
Use Your Illusion II - Blue or Red
Spaghetti Incident - Red & Black
Sympathy For The Devil - Red (Anything that GNR covers is red for me, for some odd reason)
Chinese Democracy - Red & Gray

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.

the brown sound was about eddie's guitar

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
