I think it goes the other way around. I like songs that produce interesting colours. An example would be the Scriabin I listened to. The actual music is a bit dischordant, but the colours are quite fascinating. It's like an acoustic painting.

The colours can definitely affect my reaction to a song. As noted in the other thread, club music tends to annoy me because it's usually quite jagged and bright and can be quite distracting. Some music has a tendency to be too intense to listen to if I'm not in the right mood for it, while other songs are quite cool and mellow. A song that's all dark blues and greens can be quite soothing after a stressful day.
