That’s how I compose music. My brain plays it to me before I can try and put it on paper. Also when I sing I can hear the instrumental on my brain without actually playing it.

Related to this, I'm a fairly decent dancer....but only if there is music playing. I cannot dance at all with no music, it is just impossible for me to look at all coordinated. I have no music or beat in my head to follow, it is a little crazy to think that the "normal" case is that people hear music in their heads.

Same. I can't see anything in my mind's eye but it's loud as hell up there.

gotta love when you're in a dead quiet room and suddenly it just becomes an mp3 player, i've straight up fallen asleep to music playing in my mind.
