Why Charli XCX Lives For Champagne, Britney Spears, and Glitter

Charli has sound-to-color synesthesia, a rare neurological condition in which the person experiencing it hears a sound, then sees colors and shapes. "It really helps me with the visual aspects of what I do. It helps me with lyrics and it helps me to be able to think about music videos and artwork for my songs. It allows me to paint a cinematic picture of my music."
