What are some songs that make you feel like they may be about ADHD or the ADHD experience?

Here are some of mine. I love these but man I feel seen and heard and felt in these pieces.

Piece of Shit: wet leg Everything is boring: the beaches Edge of Town: Middle Kids

The name of the band can be offputting, but they are a really good punk band : Viagra Boys. They have a song called “The Cognitive Trade-Off Hypothesis” which is my favourite from them. The subject is straight up how ADD is maybe a result of our evolution. Really funny lyrics as well.

Edit : just saw someone else suggested another Viagra Boys song, I guess it may be a recurring subject with this band lol

The Car Song - The Cat Empire

It’s funny because last week I was listening to this song again and thinking about 15 years ago me hearing this song for the first time. And how much it resonated with me because I totally related to the “I really need to buckle down and apply myself but something always distracts me and crap now it’s Monday again where did time go” undercurrent in this song.

Ten Foot Pool was my first thought too.

I saw them live back in the 90s when they opened for AFI. They put on a fun show.

Anything put together by Dj cummerbund:

They make all my neurons fire at the same time and make me feel alive. So maybe not “about” adhd, but for people with adhd.

Oh man I was about to suggest OG breakcore when you said ADHD music

It doesn’t have exactly what you’re looking for because it isn’t about ADHD per se but the music describes mental state. Here’s some and some more. The title of the second one is a little dumb but I can look past it
