Nothing Came Out by The Moldy Peaches probably applies to lots of lonely aspies:




Just because I don't say anything,
Doesn't mean I don't like you.
I open my mouth and I try and i try
But no words came out.

Without 40 oz. of social skills
I'm just an ass in the crack of humanity.
I'm just a huge manitee.
A huge manitee.

And besides you're probably holding hands
With some skinny, pretty girl that likes to
Talk about bands and
All I wanna do is ride bikes with you
And stay up late and watch cartoons.

Duck Tales, shirt tails, Talespin, Sailor Moon, GI Joe, Robotech, Ron Jeremy, Schmoo.

I wanna watch cartons with you.
Josie and the Pussycats and Scooby Do,
I want you to watch cartoons with me.
He-man, Voltron and Hong-Kong-Fui

I tried to ask you to your face
But no words came out.
I put on my hood and walked away,
That doosn't mean I don't like you.

And besides your probably holding hands
With some skinny, pretty girl that likes to
Talk about bands and
All I wanna do is ride bikes with you,
And stay up late and maybe spoon.

Just becase I dont say anything
Doesn't mean I dont like you.
No...
I opened my mouth and i tried and i tried.

And besides you're probably holding hands
With some skiny, pretty girl that likes to
Talk about bands and
All I wanna do is ride bikes with you.
And stay up late and watch cartoons.

I'm just your average Thundercats ho.

"Manic Depression" By Jimi Hendrix.. i'm not DX'ed as Bipolar but i can relate to the lyrics methinks..

lol & the quote in my Sig.. i am orange & yellow on Jimi's spectrum.. btw i only mean to suggest that I relate to this music, i make no claims about other people's relationship to music.

How Soon is Now - the Smiths
Ask- The Smiths
There is a Light that Never Goes Out - The Smiths
Heaven Knows I am Miserable Know - The Smiths


Go through Morrissey and the Smiths entire catalog.

is morrissey AS or just incredibly dull? "booyah!"

Pure Narcotic - Porcupine Tree

especially the chorus:

I'm sorry that, I'm sorry that I'm not like you
I worry that I don't act the way you'd like me to

and the line:
You keep me alone in a room full of friends

The rest of a song is a pretty standard unrequited love song though.

Butterflies and Hurricanes by Muse

Change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

Best you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

Interlude

Change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

Best you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

Interlude

Don't let yourself down
don't let yourself go
your last chance has arrived

Best you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

I like to look on the bright side.

Myxomatosis by Radiohead

"And I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied
Don't know why I feel so skinned alive"

"My thoughts are misguided and a little naive
I twitch and I salivate like with myxomatosis
You should put me in a home or you should put me down"

I don't know what these lyrics are supposed to mean exactly... but to me it's a most poetically apt description of how I feel when I'm in a really self-conscious mood.

Morrissey is probably on the spectrum. The guy is almost textbook, maybe not as much as Nick Drake, but still very aspie. I mean the guy almost exclusive communicates through faxes.

kk sorry, as you may have guessed i'm not a fan, but no offence.. each to their own.

Hi,even though I have Aspergers, play music like I'm the real composer.I have been playing ever since I was 2! I've been playing Beethoven,Mozart,Chopin,Bach,Brahms,Tchikovsky,Joplin,I'm getting a little carried away aren't I? I even have recitals once in a while.People are like this when I play,

So true
