Hiya
My son (5yrs) does almost exactly the same talking thing you mentioned. He seems to have the most urgent and compelling need to say whatever it is he needs to say, often just 'stuff' not anything that I would call important :)
I used to wonder if this was something to do with my son's hearing (big issues for a long time) but having worked with gifted kids, and now hearing your experiences, I wonder if it is related to over-excitabilities / intensities. Could be a combination of having pressing need to get ideas across / understood and some learned behaviour? I don't have any answers sorry, I tend to tune out a lot (bad mother moments!)
Cheers
Madelaine
