Why Jack Black Is So Sensitive (About Autism)

jack black autism song   “Sensitive. Am I too sensitive? They call me sensitive,” shouts actor Jack Black along with his dueting partner-in-crime Wyatt Isaacs. “Is it something about me? Or the clothes that I wear? I hear noises. Things are too loud. Is it me? Are things too loud!?!”
No, the legendary “Professor of Rock” and voice behind Kung Fu Panda isn’t feeling especially emotionally delicate today. Instead, he has teamed up with Wyatt — a young teen from Los Angeles who has autism — to sing about what it feels like to have the condition. The two performed the song together at a star-studded music festival, featured on this weekend’s episode of Everyday Health.

Call him givin'-back-Jack Black: The actor has teamed up with a young rocker-in-training to help raise awareness for the autism organization The Miracle Project.['Everyday Health, January 26, 2012]
