If there is any biopic made about him, it probably will not come from Hollywood or any of the usual sources. Tiny Tim was a devout Christian, and very open about it. If he were around today, he would be cancelled, for sure.
The man had talent and is still totally unique and one of a kind all these years later. The world's a darker place without him. God Bless you Tiny Tim.
I met Mr.Tiny Tim in Greenpoint Brooklyn at the finish of a NYC walkathon.I recognized him and greeted him, told him I was a big fan. I even offered to drive him home as he was exhausted.he was kind enough to sing a few bars of tiptoe through the tulips just for me when I asked. what a lovely ,charming ,talented and wonderful human being. God bless tiny Tim.
Α mimic/comedian and a singer with enormous range, from hilarious countertenor falsetto, to tenor and rich baritone, all delivered with a tongue in cheek attitude. Great.
There’s something particularly stunning about this recording. Two years earlier Tiny was just a struggling musician, then he’s singing a Beatles song with George Harrison for their Christmas album. Plus nowhere man is a very human song on its own. Will anyone ever know who I am? If so, so what?
He died on stage of a heart attack. After his doctor had told him not to go onstage ever again. Because he had already had one heart attack on stage and survived.
@@evanwolf6618 Tiny was the ultimate entertainer - he lived and breathed solely to perform and nothing was going to stop him except death. It put immense strain on his marriages because he couldn't just settle down and stop performing. And thank the powers at be for that.
Dec. 1968. George Harrison invited Tiny Tim to be a guest on the 1968 Beatle Christmas record where he sang Nowhere Man. George was also a ukelele enthusiast.
Anyone who does not instantly recognise Tim's genius obviously is clearly in deep suffering and urgently requires the services of a chiropodist, and possibly also electro shock thereapy to either end. Few such choral athletes cause instant floods of tears - Maria Callas, Tiny Tim, Angelina Jordan, Annie Lennox .......
classic! when you have a voice like TT, guess you worry less about tuning your ukulele :) I like this better than the original, but I also play soprano ukulele so, you know...
This poor soul only wanted too be taken serious... A man who’s expectations succeed his talent.. He tried, he failed, he probably will go down in musical history as the worse singer ever. Maybe , just maybe that counts for something...RIP Tiny Tim.
What are you talking about? The man was amazingly talented as a singer. His knowledge of songs and music was phenomenal. It's people like you who failed to realise what an absolute gem and talent Tiny Tim was.
Rachel, why are you so sure...? under my opinion could be some beatles joke...they were very used to do it in several others situations...anyway, the most true about all is: George liked so very much the ukulele, the instrument that Tiny Tim used to play.
Hasteere2, I´m forced to think about some beatles joke too... in many happy hours moment of them in abbey road studio, even despite tha fact that Tiny was not a fool but, a fantastic performer.
Lets start a petition to get this man a proper biopic film 🎞

It was made last year, it’s called Tiny Tim: King for a Day.
it would probably be from some European or a Asian film studio because he would be a bit controversial even from the time you originally posted.

"I hope I don't give music a bad name." - Tiny Tim
You didn't sir, you did well.
You didnt sir, you were one of the best
Bon Jovi says otherwise (not an insult, I love Tiny Tim)
He lived with a certain courage we'd all do well to emulate.
He certainly gave Howard Stern what for!! Never wavered in his beliefs and really didn’t care what people thought! Very courageous!!!
well said
Well said. He surely did.
Tiny Tim is so underrated it hurts
hi, PinkFairytale17-have you heard Tiny's first two albums? You won't belive HOW GREAT they are
I agree Pink
Underrated by you.
@@gogoyubari366 no he's pretty underrated
He scares me so much
Tiny Tim was one of the most gentle souls. Reast easy, Tiny. Rest easy.
Most people don't realize, but this is the proper way to perform this particular song.
Agreed! Tiny Tim - the most misunderstood singer ever.
@James Boyles ummmmm yes
LOL first it would be great if he learn to tune his instrument properly....
@@thomasdupont7186 I think the fact that it is out of tune complements his unique style.
@@thomasdupont7186 listen to his song man and the moon and ull get it...lol
I wish Tiny Tim did Honey Pie. That was written for him (not literally).
Omg you're right though that song would totally suit his style
Agreed.
Pablo Jose, very perceptive,you're right it would suit Tiny Tim perfectly.
Great call.....maybe When I'm Sixty Four would also be a natural pick.
I found about tiny tim yesterday and it was the first thing that came to my mind hahaha
The man had talent and is still totally unique and one of a kind all these years later. The world's a darker place without him. God Bless you Tiny Tim.
🐞 You can really hear how happy George was when introducing Tiny !

Damn Beatle George x tiny Tim???
That's a frcking gift
R.I.P. Tiny Tim
Rip.
Words can‘t express how much i love this guy

tiny tim is one of the underrated greats
The king of outsider music ❤️✨
it's def tiny tim..frm the beatles Christmas lp!!.I listen to it every year,and this bit cracks me up!!
He died on stage of a heart attack. After his doctor had told him not to go onstage ever again. Because he had already had one heart attack on stage and survived.
@@look4hiram true
Apparently he had to remind the people that he can still sing.
Thats how underrated he was even in ill he tried to perform only for the joy of peoplr
@Shallex Tiny Tim was aware of his condition and refused any surgery .
He is the hoodini of music
@@evanwolf6618 Tiny was the ultimate entertainer - he lived and breathed solely to perform and nothing was going to stop him except death. It put immense strain on his marriages because he couldn't just settle down and stop performing.
And thank the powers at be for that.
and by the way His with George Harrison of The Beatles in this Moment, That was so Precious Timeline of his Career,
RIP Tiny Tim.
Back then Tiny talked with his put on voice.
He actually had a very deep natural speaking voice.
Previously unreleased live recording from a Beatles gig in a helium factory.
His version of Helter Skelter is the shiznit!
Ok, this is fascinating.. I had no idea this existed.
Dec. 1968. George Harrison invited Tiny Tim to be a guest on the 1968 Beatle Christmas record where he sang Nowhere Man. George was also a ukelele enthusiast.
This was probably made in Woodstock when tiny was working on a film with dylan and george came to visit.
And God bless us, everyone!
That is amazing.

Is Tiny Tim related to Emo Philips? Also Hollyhobs sent me here, thanks Hollyhobs you were right!!
Owen Johnzon haha he sent me too
tiny Tim makes me cry
why
Unique beauty that once was can do that.
grande personaggio ....e musicista..
RIP Tiny 🙏...
We have a special guest here this evening, Mr. Tiny Tim!
Lmao I like that George Harrison said little in a Irish accent
He did ?

Tiny and George Ukulele guys ❤️
And Dylan as well.
Dude thus is great
Cool!!!
Omfg I'm over the moon with this video!!! 😂
Fellow ukulele fan -
Bravo, Tiny! Not sure about the Budweiser jacket, though. I hope they paid you for that. 2:04
Well he was known to be quite fond of beer.
🌹🙏
❤❤🎶🎶🎸🎸✌✌❤❤
Was this REALLY George playing ukelele he loved to do and doing a dead on imitation? LOL!
George could only wish to have a vocal range like that.
@@billk9856not sure I would want to listen to that vocal range on a regular basis. George's voice will do just fine.
Es tan bizarro que se veras muy interesante

Ah caray
Strange dude that tiny tim
Mr Tim, reminds me of Sr pelo.
Is it the voice thats y?😂
Yoko Ono..ese es mi camino...les gusta..el hueveo...
God, that was excruciating.
It sounds like he didn't rehearse it at all. At least he could have tuned his ukulele
Basil Fomeen that was kind of his iconic style. He also expressed how nervous he was in George’s presence
Governed caucus juror pledge
Hate to be a Debbie Downer, but Tiny should have taken a couple of minutes to figure out the right ukelele chords.
And tuned it.
Doesn't matter. It's his style, unique and free.
This poor soul only wanted too be taken serious... A man who’s expectations succeed his talent.. He tried, he failed, he probably will go down in musical history as the worse singer ever. Maybe , just maybe that counts for something...RIP Tiny Tim.
At least he was a kind soul. Too many pretentious charlatans running around here.
Listen to "Leave me satisfied" and then tell me that man couldn't sing. It was a style, he knew exactly what he was doing.
What are you talking about? The man was amazingly talented as a singer. His knowledge of songs and music was phenomenal. It's people like you who failed to realise what an absolute gem and talent Tiny Tim was.
George adored him ... seriously.
How does becoming world famous and raking in the dough seem like failure?
😟😟😟😟
That doesn't sound like Tiny. Could be, but I don't think so.
Definitely is him.
