it's cold outside. feel that warm dextromethorphan glow, with a nice fire going, dimly lit room, Christmas tree flickering. 101F fever coming down now. good night everyone, it's gonna be a long night, hope everybody feels better soon.
I haven’t cried like that in a while. Thank you. My dad used to be on cold medicine and I have so many memories of him dancing in the living room in his pj’s.
@@ericclaptonsrobotpilot7276 i am aware, thanks, it was a joke. Unfortunately I'm wildly allergic to DXM and we found that out the hard way one time when we drank several bottles and my eyes swole shut. Ever tripped while having a severe allergic reaction? 🤌 Highly recommend it. I've never actually partaken in NyQuil, though I was an addict for many years. Never quite was a fan of classical deleriants. Thanks for the help though big guy. Happy Crimbus!
The same Tim Heidecker that was prosecuted for murder? He's a menace, but he writes a fine ballad. Just gotta separate the artist from his work I guess.
Sometimes you need a menace to make things right. Prosecuted but not convicted I believe. Also, remember all of his fine work for charities.@@theterminaldave
Nothing like drinking some old generic brand, orange flavour syrup under your dads bathroom sink to bring back all the great memories. Cause they WILL be coming back like it or not
I think the true beauty of an artist is how believable their art is. Tim makes ridiculous comedy but is also talented in such a way where I could imagine teenage Tim getting on high on cough syrup with his crush and this being a song about a real moment.
Memories light the corners of my mind. I don't have a cold medicine story like yours, but some guy delivered carnations to my house when I had chicken pox, in 6th grade. Isn't it romantic? x
Flight attendants, grocery store sample table attendants, priests delivering the eucharist, bartenders at the local pub, all pouring that syrupy green elixir, delighting the sleepy-eyed hoi polloi
Find someone who looks at you the way Tim looks at cold medicine. Find that someone and then avoid them, because that's sure to be an unhealthy relationship.
The Ramones were known for their song “Now I Want To Sniff Some Glue” but the b side to that was “Vicks Vapor Rub” . The song preaches about the aromatic therapy and healing powers of the menthol ointment. The 7” inch could be purchased over the counter along with Vicks Vapor Rub at Walgreens in 1976. A vinyl record that was low in production and is hard to find.
I give this song 5 bags of popcorn and two bottles of NyQuil multi-symptom relief

I don't care whether it's cold medicine or piss, an empty bottle is a sad thing!
Tim has two sides: one is a tender and wholesome Mark Kozelek and the other is Spaget
i'll never forget listening to this for the first time on christmas eve. this song will follow me for years.
This takes me back to a time that I barely survived.
This really is the first song I learned to play for my wife on my acoustic
This is actually surprisingly wholesome, but that might be the NyQuil talking
This song is about Dextromethorphan, not diphenhydramine.
Most Nyquils do actually contain DXM! Just got over a bad flu and I passed the hell out taking em lol.
@@ericclaptonsrobotpilot7276 NyQuil doesn't contain DPH. Even the varieties that do contain an antihistamine use phenylephrine.

I'm high as a kite, and my teeth are green. Merry fucking Christmas!
Driving with a open bottle of tussin on Christmas Eve to see my family and hearing Cold Medicine for the first time was an absolute joy.
I had a roommate that was addicted to cold medicine. Drank every bottle that people bought for their colds. Anyway, happy holidays!
wtf tim i was expecting a satire, not the weirdly specific and relatable nostalgia that you're literally known for in your music
I’ve got the Oscar Fever
Maze 🌽
@@Exodus26.13PiUNGH
Oscer gave me a fever
Deserves 5 Oscar's and a bottle of vics vapor rub
this sounds exactly like what would be echoing out from some distant corner of a strip mall in Jefferton on an overcast day at late noon
Remember to get the kind without acetaminophen, kids
those warbly guitars fit the vibe perfectly
Gordon Lightfoot up there smilin
I got a 103 degree fever for the past six months
And it ain't goin down
Im so happy to see Casey's finally getting himself the care he needs
The voice lessons really paid off
Tim is such a responsible artist for providing the public with this message
So this Is Tim In late 2023. Good song. Happy holidays you weird weird bastard. You're the funniest person to ever live. Dont forgot that
103 fever for the past 6 months
He shoulda called DJ dougpound instead of drake
Ya body burnin’ up like a weed filled blunt.
Heidecker is a great American. He is a true national treasure.
A real American. Fighting for the rights of every man.

”Cold Medicine (Not Driving Home For Christmas)”

Tim Heidecker is fast becoming one of my favorite entertainers.
I like Biden. Tim is 'ol reliable' tho.
Please consult a physician if you listen to this song for more than 4 hours.
This is just a comment to kindly request a Yellow River Boys revival. Thank you. Love ya. Great job!
Never heard of it
Flax seeds is the only cold medicine I need
Imagine being germ free!

hell yeah dude instant classic
I know most of us post in character but this is f'n incredible and your dedication is beyond the pale.
Has to be done sometimes. I am often guilty and I agree.
My dad was a cold medicine. Missing him this time of year (he’s in the other room 😔) Thanks for this one, Tim! Happy Holidays! ❤
This is a Tim Heidecker Classic.
💯
Memories light the corners of my mind. I don't have a cold medicine story like yours, but some guy delivered carnations to my house when I had chicken pox, in 6th grade. Isn't it romantic? x
I heard that you were feeling ill, headache, fever, and a chill...
Tim Heidecker is an insanely talented guy
This is incredibly well done
Wow I love it. Thanks for sharing Tim. Happy Chrimbus!!
Tim, your music reminds me of WEEN. I mean that as a compliment.
Play this on a loop for your family this holiday
Genius!
You just made my DAYQUIL™
Your music is as lovely as your comedy is funny (both excellent) ❤
I enjoyed that a lot, almost as much as I enjoy my cold medicine
wait this is good
Ah the Robbotussin days 😮
Singing this with my mem mem and pep pep around the fire tonight while passin a bottle of that sweet sweet tuss
This is already stuck in my head!
Another holiday banger is born.
Finally a brave musician using their art to explore serious relationship issues.
That was amazing! The low notes you hit were so chilling. Such a catchy song.
This is beautiful. Cold gold.
Here’s to being irresponsible, but not enough to get yourself or anyone else too hurt or killed!
What a pleasant song to have stuck in your head on this fine Christmas morning. Merry Christmas everyone.
Weird that he wrote this. Every time i take cold medicine my mind reverts to when i watched a ton of Tim & Eric back in 2010
Ahhh, so many memories... That I can't fuggin remember lol, love me a bottle of the Ny or two

I picture Mr. Henderson singing his. Great job, Timbit!
Lovely song. Brought a Christmas tear to my Christmas eyes.
Most bangin PSA I've ever heard.
i'm feeling better already
Happy birthday, Tim. Hope you got your medicine. 🙏❤
Instant Holiday Classic!!!!
I drink cold medicine to help wash down the hot piss.
THIS is the good old country music I've been missing! Thanks Tim!!
Woke up and saw this...what an amazing gift, thanks Santa!
This will be on repeat Christmas day
I’m gonna tell my children this man discovered the Columbia river
This is great. Love how twangy the guitar sounds
What a beautiful song
Tim keeps honing his craft and improving. I can't even recognize his work because he's evolved so much.
The simple solution was to heat up that cold medicine. That's the crazy part.
Ok Tim, this is unspeakably wonderful, thank you!👏🏼💯💖✌🏼
Steel guitar always gets in for free.
Best Heidecker song so far, and easily among the best 21st century Christnas songs. In my winter brain forever now. We're lucky to have this song.
literally my holiday tune this holiday season 😆 need me another bottle
an amazing artist through and through dont give me any cold medicine because that just healed my niffles > - < loveya tim! yurthebest! GREAT JOB!
I would never ever listen to music like this. This was actually pretty good. Good job Tim.
I smoked a thousand meths to this one Tim! NEVER STOP!!!!
That's a fine song.
Ok Tim’s songwriting is making a turn to Warren Zevon, which is phenomenal.
THE holiday song of the year right here bud.
That drum solo was epic
I love it
Instant folk classic!
I think this might be your best song Tim.
I was looking for a new Christmas song, and here we are. A banger! Almost as good as Empty Bottle by DKR
Finally some real country music
Thanks Tim, keep up the gum updates
Brilliance. ❤
An emotional tale
FUCKING STOP IT TIMOTHY! YOU KEEP MAKING ME LAUGH AND CRY AT THE SAME TIME AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!
Ok this is epic
Your killing it tim,
Tim’s music is the best part of his creative output imo.
Haunting
Merry Christmas, Tim. Another gem. 🎶❤🎶
been humming the chorus all day long since i heard it
Find someone who looks at you the way Tim looks at cold medicine. Find that someone and then avoid them, because that's sure to be an unhealthy relationship.

Thanks, bro. Merry Christmas
