Were you a Spandau Ballet or Duran Duran person then? I prefer Duran Duran, as I find Spandau Ballet a bit too bland.

At this very moment, I'm listening to this album by Joey Yung.

Unlike Nin9 2 5ive or Something About You (both excellent albums in their own right), this album shows a more relaxed and intimate side of Joey. The album cover is beautiful too.

One of my favourite songs from one of my favourite groups.  A l ullabye but not for a baby

My national anthem of autistic experience:

'You're weird, in tears,
Too near and too far away.
He said, "Saw red,
Went home, stayed in bed all day".
Your t-shirt's dish dirt,
Always love the one you hurt.

You sleep too deep,
One week is another world,
Big mouth, drop out,
You get what you deserve.
You're strange, insane -
One thing you can never change.'

All of Tool!!

Not mad enough - Smith and Myers’s

'Wait for me because I waited for you -
No, that's not what you should do,
Don't hate me 'cause I don't hate you,
Insane eyes...
You made me realise'

Although not strictly a song or video, the film “the Nuns Story” starring Audrey Hepburn, who plays Gabrielle Val de Mal (Sister Luke), the daughter of a famous scientist in the Belgian Congo, shows our experiences with Autism in a very good way - while Sister Luke struggles with the vow of obedience, despite going on the Missions to the Congo, she ends up leaving the Convent many years later - I got into it because I recall as a child going with my Mum (who herself was raised by Catholic Nuns as a child) and to hear the Sisters reciting (chanting) the Divine Office in Latin and I’ve always liked listening to monks and especially nuns singing in Latin - it’s perhaps why after I returned to my Catholic faith 15 years ago, I taught myself to pray the Rosary in Latin and now get to attend the Traditional Mass in Latin at a church nearby 

For those of us on the ADD edge of the spectrum, AWOL NATION wrote this tracjk "Sail"...

Being a teenager during the 80’s this was the best era in music, leaving aside some of the clothes and fashions such as the “New Romantics” etc 

Martha' Harbour

I sit by the harbour
The sea calls to me
I hide in the water
But l need to breathe

[Chorus]
You are an ocean wave, my love crashing at the bow
I am a galley slave, my love If only I could find out the way
To sail you maybe I'll just stow away

[Verse 2]
I've been run aground
So sad for a sailor
I felt safe and sound
But needed the danger

[Chorus]
You are an ocean wave, my love crashing at the bow
I am a galley slave, my love If only I could find out the way
To sail you maybe I'll just stow away

[Chorus]
You are an ocean wave, my love crashing at the bow
I am a galley slave, my love If only I could find out the way
To sail you maybe I'll just stow away

[Outro]
Stow away
Stow away

Should have named it: Ease my Pain by Declan Flynn apparently 

Been thinking of a Sapphire & Steel rewatch, and had a look for a tribute to remind myself of the stories. Found this great tribute, but (relevant to this thread) the track is really haunting and beautiful. Drumbeat is very Teardrop but it’s got it’s own vibe going on. https://youtu.be/sR8dUaT9VKc

Lol  I suppose they weren't big 'talkers'. Maybe secretly they're autistic?

This song has brightened me up a wee bit.
