A Musician with Autism (Extremely Gifted)

- Josh is diagnosed with autism. At age three he was nonverbal and aggressive at therapy. One day, as Josh struggled through a session, his therapist turned on the radio. A few weeks later Josh sang his first words.
Today, seven years after discovering music, Josh loves to perform for others and talk about autism.
I've been friends with Josh's mom for many years and I've followed everything Josh has done on her page. I still have videos on my timeline from many years ago. This kid is far more amazing than anyone might believe. I've heard him sing so many different songs and he is always perfect.
Wouldn’t be surprised if this kid gets a record deal when he grows up
@@UNKNOWN-du5fc, He totally could if he wanted to. He is so amazing.
“If you have a disability, there is always an ability you can find”
These are such eye opening and wise words
correct
What a beautiful voice, and you can see that it makes him so happy to sing and play with his voice. It's natural to him !
I’m autistic (extremely high on the spectrum) and I love music as well, so hearing a testimony of someone completely nonverbal using music as a way to cope is absolutely amazing. And he has a very good voice. Like if that’s him without any training or vocal training, he’s going to be a superstar.
His voice is angelic
Ikr, he’s so good
Aw bless him, his voice is spot on: he was singing in a perfect A key, I wonder if he also has perfect pitch.
Lots of love to you Josh, keep it up and enjoy when your voice changes ...it's like swapping instruments :-)
If I founded a record label, I would immediately sign this kid…
This story proves that treatments are not a one-size-fits-all situation. Instead, you need to find a therapy that plays with the strengths of the individual.
Hi everyone: It's so nice to see you all again on UA-cam. I want to meet you all one day. Take care and stay safe.
He has such an angelic voice😇😢
God bless you all abundantly 🙏

Music to my ears!
"He used to sing beautifully but still not talking."
As another autistic person, I find this interesting. It shows how our aspirations are the things that lead to our abilities in the first place. Everyone can do and are able as long as they have it within them, and they usually do, in most living or healthy human beings, but for people on the spectrum, those abilities are less naturally functional and hence the energies are put into somewhere else, topping them. You just have to put in some energy towards your necessary weaknesses to eventually reach it. For me, personally, what triggered that aspiration was through the negative way, as my parents, teachers, classmates, and everything in my environment squeezed me into the forceful and necessity point of either growth/strength or collapse/weakness paths. I chose the former one, and it has then set me towards betterment, growth, and furtherment. I'm glad Josh has got to be in such a loving place. I'm sure he would've reach there, the speaking, even if he didn't pursue singing, but it did make it better and faster.
"If we focus on the positives, the weaknesses could turn into positives."
Oh, yes, definitely, with awareness of it, apparent emphasize from guardians, or if they were necessary in said person's path, the positives could bring the energies into play, into life to tackle those weaknesses and internally nurture them. Positives-focusing could make fear, obstacles, and such mental hold-backs within the path disappear, therefore the chances of you meeting it and actually doing well, as they make them as easiest as possible, potentially, in them becomes higher. (But the balance of properly working with each of your human traits, meaningfully, is the best.)
Ur awesome josh.
Wtg cous. You rock it
he should do and create his own music he does at his best

Im also an autistic person but I can’t sing
Me neither 🤷♀️ I much prefer music notation and digital, never was a fan of singing but I do have decent pitch. I'm sure you've got another talent yourself
@@Mits_ I prefer instrumental over voice
selective mutism as well
He’s Rothy’s fine 😒
