Meh, some people do.
Sometimes I'm listening to music when I make them up, so when I see them, that song immediately comes to mind.
Or I hear the song, and a character comes to mind.
Like listening to gospel and imagining angels. I've had THAT happen before.
Oh! And the song, "No Air", by Chris Brown and Jordan Sparks. Reminds me of sylphs, and it even inspired me to think of a sylphen (sylphin?) mating/mate-finding tradition that I incorporated into the Celadon mythos.
It's actually quite fascinating.
