Anyone else have Synesthesia?

Hello! I was wondering if anyone else here had synesthesia related to music. If you do what kind? (taste, feel, smell, ect.) I can smell different things when I hear a different song so now I'm curious. If it's not related to music then is it letters, numbers, ect?

That's awesome! Do any of you make certain parts of your synesthesia into characters like WormOffTheString does with dyslexia?

@SomeRandomPekoKin: it'd probably depend on what kind of synesthesia you have. with sound-to-color the most annoying thing i face is when a song is named after one color but is actually another color xD (i.e i'm blue is fucking GREEN AND VIOLETTTT)
on the other hand, lexical-gustatory synesthesia sounds like it could be a nightmare

ye! i see different colors in my head depending on the key a song or note is in. e.g the C note is green, the D note is orange, the E note is blue, etc. and most songs in the key of one of those notes will be at least partially in its respective color. when i was a toddler i'd see giant notes in whatever color when i closed my eyes, but nowadays it's more in the back of my head
