That's because they are close together on the spectrum.
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple
Let's use that as the spectrum for now..
Lessay what I recognize as orange, you would recognize as blue, were you to see through my eyes (however, through your eyes, you'd call it orange as well). Therefor, I see what you'd call yellow, yet I call it purple... (and so do you, Ginkasa!).
Is blue close to purple? Sure is... is Orange close to Yellow? Definately (though we may not be talking about the same colors, exactly).
This "theory" would also be based on the spectrum. Don't give it too much thought though, for it is impossible to prove incorrect without scientific tools.
