Here's the plan. You go in alone, get on and perform until they physically kick you out. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to whomever is doing the kicking out, I and a large group of people are queued up out side with picket signs ready to immediately protest loudly and in grand fashion. Maybe someone has a megaphone. Someone definitely has a megaphone. We occupy, protesting and chanting until we clear out the bar, then we peace out.
For those that have asked Lyrics Opening: "I trusted you" Chorus: "I trusted you" Bridge: "I trusted you" Closing: "Scream" Encore: "I trusted you. Scream"
This song still is one of the most emotional songs I've ever hand the pleasure of listening to. Thank you so much for posting this. I have asked for this to be played at my wedding and my funeral....and my rebirth (if it happens). I trust them.
Kaufman traverses depths here few dare enter. He addresses the primal symbiotic nature of a relationship gone sour. He dredges up pain and suffering that is hard to watch, yet one can not look away. His catharsis is subtle, yet strikes as a sledgehammer. Andy Kaufmans performance of "I trusted you" is like looking at the sun. Illuminating, blinding at that same time. As tears stream down my face. I think...YES I understand!!!
im sure this was some inside joke andy was telling...someone in his life flipped out on him and screamed "I trusted you" and andy thought "this would make a great song..."
@@Pablo-wj4hb Hard to quantify it exactly. Part of it is his extreme level of commitment. It's such an incredibly simple idea. It's one sentence! But it says a lot. The sound of the guitar lick is so funny to me, and it just goes on and on... The false stops! The way the audience is LOSING it over this moron hahaha... There's a lot to it.
@@u2soadfan Thanks for the reply, I see what you're getting at he definitely performs with a lot of heart. I feel like it also hints the idea that the audience trusted him to deliver a comedic experience , a trust which he enjoyed abusing (in a funny way). one funny this he did was read an entire book to the audience instead of performing, and then he asked the audience if they would instead like to hear a record, he put on a record of him reading the same book! lol

there is something miraculous about this video. It doesn't matter what mood I'm in or how angry I am : by the end of this performance I am ALWAYS laughing. Not just chuckling or snickering but snorting, honking, crying and spastic with laughter. And I don't even know why. And I don't want to know. Thank You Andy!!!
There's no evidence that he thinks he was wrong in trusting you. This song could be a celebration of trust and how he's so glad about how he trusted you.
Idk the first time I saw it I laughed out loud once he started really over the top dancing and screaming. Andy was one of the pioneer and better satirist. His whole career was based on mocking people and what they like to their face. I just like his attitude, he was an experimental comic and not everything is gonna be gold. I didn't really care for Latka which is his more "famous" bit. The Kaufman-Lawler stuff was genius, not hysterical but genius none the less.
Andy Kaufman is a highly evolved spiritual being (or HEB). His harmonic oscillations are the ultimate unification of the extra dimensional convergent chakra being energies to form a togetherness of self.
Concept art goes back at least to the 1910s (Duchamp, Dada movement)... Man, I'm a Millennial, but I hate how millennials/Gen Z believe everything was invented recently...
how come andy kauffman can do a song repeating " trusted u" over and over again and get tons of laughs, but justin bieber writes a song where the only lyric is "baby" and nobody realizes how hilarious it is
I love how so many didn't understand him. It's like he was playing a joke on the world and questioning what "art" even is. RIP Andy. you will never be forgotten. ty
So good. Could be said he was ahead of his time but there hasn't been anyone since that does this as distinctly. Kaufman was the master at messing with the audience, within 90 seconds they're clapping along to this 'song'. Throw in the Elvis dancing, being asked back for an encore (of course all part of it), pointing at the guitarists as he sings and the possibly planted screaming girls; brilliant sketch. And he only had to write three lines.

i play this song at open mics until i literally get kicked out
Me too..we should duet..
Thank you

@@reneelolley6019 can you trust each other?
@@loustandards2827& the people protesting are only saying I trusted you
I like the part where he trusted me.
But he didn't trust me--he trusted YOU.
I like how smoothly that segues into the part where he trusted you.

Lyrics
Opening: "I trusted you"
Chorus: "I trusted you"
Bridge: "I trusted you"
Closing: "Scream"
Encore: "I trusted you. Scream"
🎸🙋♀️Are you sure? I’ll trust you!🤣
One of the saddest, deepest, and honest breakup songs of all time
When he said, “I trusted you.” I felt that.
Ha
Where did he say that?!
@Ag21 who cares
For a female cover/version, just those lines are enough for me.
my favorite part
He was too generous with his trust.
Or maybe the person he trusted was too generous with their deceit.
A little trust goes a long way. Was this A Bridge Too Far? Maybe so.
I love when he points at the guitar and bass players, and they recoil like he's going to attack them.
You should've seen what happened to the last guitar and bass players he trusted
This song still is one of the most emotional songs I've ever hand the pleasure of listening to. Thank you so much for posting this. I have asked for this to be played at my wedding and my funeral....and my rebirth (if it happens). I trust them.
Very easily Could've been a Nirvana song
Wayne Blair Andy Kaufman....godfather of grunge...
He had to sing the lyric for every person in the audience.
Spot on
When I saw the title, I thought "Wow, an actual song from Andy Kaufman!" He got me again!
Are you implying this isn't a legitimate song?
@Richard Gleaves Yes. I guess I'll never learn. lol 😂😂😂
💯🤣
This is the greatest song a heartbroken lover can sing
Either the people cheering in the audience are like me and truly appreciate his humor, or they're high AF
Why not both
Trust in Andy....n the dope
Some of the cheering sounds like the ladies were super into him, especially because it increases when he dances. They probably like his orange outfit.
This should have been a bigger hit than it was.
Really when were born.
I'm also thinking about it.
@@kimberlypascua8020 I trusted you
@@WesCoastPiano Por favor?
A true artist who was before his time. I wonder if he knew back then how loved he would be so many years later.
Yes and he probably didn't care

Andy Kaufman is so punk rock man!
My favorite part is when he said, "I trusted you"...

This really should've been included in Man On The Moon. :)
If I recall, there was alot of cut footage from that movie since Universal wanted it to be a certain length. maybe someday we'll see it.
I walked out of that movie feeling I had wasted my time. Would have been much better spent just watching authentic clips of Kaufman.
that shit movie? nah
Shit movie shit performance
I don't think Jim could've done it
Will wood be like
YEPP
We've found the Will Wood fans comment! :D
wee woo
This guy was so far ahead of his time. "Trolling the audience" personified.
After 30 times I finally memorized this song
I don't know. These lyrics are too complicated.
It even passed despacito
I swear to god Andy, if you are alive...
If he were alive, he'd be the most elaborate Internet troll there ever was.
Nah, he's a decent 2nd.
HE DEAD
im sure this was some inside joke andy was telling...someone in his life flipped out on him and screamed "I trusted you" and andy thought "this would make a great song..."
Everything Andy Kaufman did come off as an inside joke that only he got.
Well, him and Zmuda
This is one of my favorite things in the world.
absolutely! Has to be my favorite💓
Really makes you think...
Exactly. Who did he trust?
This is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
Any chance you could explain why you find this so funny? I'm seriously asking-- I'm trying to understand Kauffmans appeal as a comic

a hell of a singer! i always wonder why he didn't release music albums.
Can someone please give me the lyrics? It's going so fast I can't understand!
I tested you I tested you
This is like one of those 10 minute TH-cam loops, but in real life.
He was brilliant 😂😂 I definitely get his humour 👏👏👏
He trusted me, and I know I never let him down.
It makes me feel good to know his trust was well placed.
I'd post the lyrics for all of you, but I would go insane.
more lyrical meaning than 90% of pop songs
Lol true
🎸🙋♀️💖Agreed🤣 You made me laugh out loud but you’re absolutely right!
I'm so going to do a cover of this song.
I'll do a cover of your cover.
Just make sure you don't mix up the lyrics
Check out Future of the Left's version, it's hysterical
Ever get around to that cover? Would like to hear if so
i did one a while back!

moltimondi .... thanks for writing the words out, I was a little fuzzy on some of it, much appreciated!
Random screams were the best part
This will be a great song to cover. I can't believe it hasn't been on the radio.
Widespread Panic cover it and it's hilarious
there's also a live version but i don't remember where
Can someone help me what are the lyrics
"You I Trusted"... For the love of Pete, weren't you listening!?!?
No, you idiot, It's "I trusted you"
Irony- the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.
I'm not sure Google will know
I think you'll find it's "I trust a jew"
This is the answer
Lmao the little dance the guitar players were doing just made the whole thing that much better
omg i love it.... its even funnier in the moments when you feel the crowd going "enough already"
Trusted is no longer a word
This song is just genius... too bad it ended after just 3 minutes... it need to go on about 10 or 15 minutes, minimum...
People who look up to him are gonna change the world. Just saying.
Eric Andre is the first who comes to mind
Me?
I trusted him .. I trusted him ..
@@downtowncowboy6554 Sure!
What’s funny is that it builds up and turns into a rock & roll experience!
Punk rock

The comments here are great! I have never gave out so my ‘likes’ on one post before, Andy would be proud...
The proof that this is art is in the repeated watchings.
i trusted YOU, andy. I TRUSTED YOU.
This goes out to you Oculus Rift... I trusted you.
The words "I", "you", and "trusted" have lost all meaning.
Second verse right in the feels :/
A comic genius, challenging the audience, being delightfully mad...
That's started my day with a laugh and now I can't get the smile off my face!
I've heard he really had to work a long time on the lyrics and the chords.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOUR TRUST
PLEASE FORGIVE ME
Ther best thing about Andy was that he only did these things to make himself and his friends laugh! Brave and brillaint.
There's no evidence that he thinks he was wrong in trusting you. This song could be a celebration of trust and how he's so glad about how he trusted you.
Yes there is. I trustED you.
@@eleven9286 "And I'm glad I did" could be how he feels

This is the kind of song I wrote and sang when I was 5, much to the chagrin of my parents.
When he starts yelling randomly like a loon that had me busting up! Andy was great in this one...just sing the same thing over and over ...perfect
That was the best AGT audition ever
Who wrote that
Back when TV was actually good
and they let you down i bet andy
I stan a legend
I trusted you
I love how near the end he points at the musicians and they clearly panic and back away because they have no clue what he might do next.
I love it, when he "scares" his bandmembers!
I've written a bridge for this song if anyone wants it.
Intriguing, but can we trust you? 😅
i remember when will wood covered this
I don't care what anyone says, this is the funniest thing I have ever seen.
A brilliantly bizarre performance artist. ☺
So funny
Jesus I forgot about this!!!! He's done so much awesome trolling. What a fucking king.
The greatest break up song of all time
Ahtrustajew
Lol the audience must've been pissed
you can see and hear the audience...do they seem pissed to you? XD
Lol well I mean... I would've been pissed
This makes me so happy when I have really bad days like today, thank you Andy!

This was concept art before concept art was a thing.
what you call concept art was already a thing for a long time man

same hahah
Lol it's so great
This is as punk rock as any song has ever been.
He really was ahead of his time. Sounds like the lyrics of a Justin Bieber or Beyonce song. And the beat is funkier.

I love this song. What’s it called?
This type of performance art is still over everyone's head in 2016.
Not mine. But i agree.
Surrealism is everywhere now though, I think the only head's it should go over are people who just don't like this kind of humour.
