Last night, I told some of you about my Asperger's project, and even explained that as practice, I have been writing other songs. Here is one I wrote in a state of despair and mental anguish.

https://soundcloud.com/csoim-blank-vids ... le-talk-to

The song title is above and inspired heavily by two things: my mom and girlfriend reminding me how annoying it is to talk to yourself and my feeling that writing a song and performing it all by yourself is a lot like doing so because this time, you are alone with a guitar. Sometimes, you need to talk to yourself and it would probably be more socially acceptable if the message said something like the lyrics on the page.

Written and performed in around three or four takes this afternoon. Enjoy. Even if you don't, at least take the words into consideration. If you know someone who really needs it, tell them CSOIM sent you. :-)

I talk to myself all the time. Sometimes I even argue with myself, but hey...I always win :)

I often talk to myself but not very loudly. I also mimic animals sounds a lot, and "communicate" with animals in my own special language!! I have been doing that since I was a young child, and never stopped. :lol:
But I have recently taken a liking to translating into English speech the sounds that my pet birds make when they chirp to each other. I translate them into amusing conversations...purely for my own entertainment. :P

From what I am aware of, the vast majority of people "talk to themselves" but it is only when it done to a certain degree with complete obliviousness that people may call it "crazy".
