2016 most popular songs taste

What do the most popular songs of 2016 taste like?

Pharrell Williams, Lorde and Kanye West are all musicians with synaesthesia – a neurological condition where two different senses are involuntarily connected. When they hear sounds, they see colors, patterns and textures.

Other people with synaesthesia can taste sounds. Considering what this would be like, the Decluttr team chatted with the President of the UK Synaesthesia Association James Wannerton to find out what flavors are conjured up when he listens to some of our favourite songs of last year.
