Wysiwyg: I agree you are over thinking it a song can really only be one mood and all you have to do is think hmmmmm how does this song make me feel? what does it sing about? is it upbeat? hmmmm. So really a song is only 1 color and 1 mood!

Ok, this is seriously weird. I was dreaming only last night about a similar idea! Except my thoughts covered not just colours, but textures, from bright sparkly, through pastel, pure bright, dull, crackly, dirty, patterned. I see music in colours, patterns, textures, and opacity. But.. maybe that’s too many options for the average user :)

I think you got it the wrong way around Josh. I agree X is intensity and Y is sad-happy, but everyone knows that Blue is sad (why do you think it’s called ‘the blues’?) and Red is a happy (or ‘danger/exitement’) colour. However, based on this – green must mean intensely depressed/suicidal, and the software should automatically send an email with your contact details to The Samaritans if it sees you playing too many of these songs…

@Galley: No, I mentioned something about that:

“Moody lets you tag your iTunes music based on color with “upper red” being for sad-intense music and “lower green” being for happy-calm music.”

Sure I didn’t say “X-axis” and “Y-axis”…but I mentioned the scale.

You failed to mention that they recommend using a scale of “calm to intense” for the X-axis and “sad to happy” for the Y-axis.

Can I draw attention my (also-free) music ranking widget that lets you set your own scales, rather than having specific colours?

That way, you can make playlists for example where “soft > 2″ AND “mood > 3″ AND “My Rating > 3″ for your favourite happy soft songs :)

@ Wysiwyg: See, that’s the thing…you’re WAAAAY over-thinking it. The music isn’t inherently “blue or purple”…it’s whatever you feel like it is.

It was a good idea until i started to use and ask myself some questions when tagging…

- Mmmm… Is this music blue or purple?
- Am I feeling yellow today?
- Red or Orange?
- Blue? Or Blue with some tint of red and a little black?
- Why do I even bother with it?

Unfortunately, Moody was removed after two days of use.
