Yes, and yes. I can sing, and I sing for fun. In fact Karaoke is a good bonding experience with NT friends. I just wish it could happen outside of bars. Or maybe in juice bars instead. I've heard that in some places they put Karaoke in bowling allies and/or arcades. That sounds awesome to me, as long as each is at least partitioned off from the other so the noise, lights, etc. don't become too much.

I've been singing and recording my songs since I was a teenager. I'm not a great singer in the traditional sense though because of my monotone voice.

I am gradually teaching myself, in around a decade I might be half decent enough to desire to voice my various melodies and structures and snatches of songs and musicals I have always had clanging about but never had the confidence or energy to explore far enough to slot together, I like the guitar and piano but have lots more musical textures I intend to stumble around within.

Yes, I can in fact sing. I've sung the vocals on all of my own songs, and I occasionally like to go to the local karaoke bar and sing a few tunes.

Yes, I certainly can. I have an amazing talent for learning song lyrics really fast. I'll usually be able to sing a song after having heard it 5-10 times, if not sooner. I must know the lyrics to at least 50 songs off the top of my head. The only difficulty is that I don't have a sense of rhythm, so I tend to be off the beat sometimes...

Yes, but I'm a lot better when I sing regularly, not like how you sing in choir.

I sing all the time. I was in chorus in school and I took voice lessons for over five years.

I'm a horrible singer, but that doesn't stop me from belting out showtunes in the shower (and even using the detachable shower head as a mic!)

I love to sing :) my meds help out a lot too with processing audio, so I've gotten better since I've been on them.

Yes I sing. I just refuse to do it in front of anybody.

Yes! I'm very lucky to have perfect pitch, so singing is a very fun way for me to bring focus to something that is other than what's on my mind. I am classically trained, have sung in two orchestra choruses and just completed singing chorus in a fully staged professional opera! I'm really proud of my accomplishments, and singing is something I have used to bond with my younger brother who has a more severe form of autism than I do. Singing in chorus has helped me socially over the years as well :)

Nope. I have no business behind a microphone. Every once in a while when I am playing guitar I will catch myself singing some of the notes and actually matching them. It's a great feeling and cool experience when my voice and guitar are making the same vibrations but this this happens infrequently.

I once sang a karyoke song and the bar area cleared out and went outside for a smoke and some fresh air. :cry: :(
