You are! I'm a longtime unrepentant Depeche Mode fan, so I can tolerate quite a bit of cheese and synthesizers.

Because Kylie is objectively better. I admit I like some songs from the Erotica era, though.

To me, the following two pieces of music are really kinda the same. They're both extremely "visual" in a way that's hard to describe, unless you simply "get it."

So do you also have mild synesthesia then? I don't find that certain genres are necessarily any more colorful than other ones. But I'm often drawn to certain artists for the same reasons, especially if many of their songs tend to be overwhelmingly blue/indigo (like The Durutti Column and John Cage--there's also lots of dark green, black and dark blue there-- and Julee Cruise)
