Tim is brilliant, so many great songs and standup, as well as some beautiful serious songs. He always promotes thought and is always funny. Intelligent and a pretty damned good on the piano.
@@notrashtolerated such a shame, well at least you got to see it. Most have had no issues, yet some have had to put words like Copyright or Tim Minchin or just blur it slightly to get to post it. The YT police work in mysterious ways!
@notrashtolerated Fecking fun police again. I'd imagine his Pope song would have no chance, but I recommend you watch it purely for your viewing pleasure. Cheers mate
Tim is an Aussie musical comedian. Considered a bit of a legend here. Usually he performs songs, he’s a brilliant piano player. Comedy songs of course. He also wrote the music for the Broadway musical and Netflix musical Matilda. Incredibly intelligent. And always good fun, but often has a deeper message too. I’m assuming you know Bo Burnham? Bo names Tim as his biggest influence.
Actually he is an ex comedy musician and hasn't released new comedy in over a decade. He is a serious musician, actor, producer, writer, director playwright these days.
"...in for a penny, in for a pound"... such a familiar moment LOL Thank you! Tim is so underrated. Sharp mind, unapologetic tongue... Just brilliant! You'll enjoy the ride, and so will we And thank you for reminding that IT'S COMEDY, PPL, one does not have to agree with his opinions, but funny is funny, man...
As a long time fan of Tim, everything he does is a work of art. He is a truly a lyrical genius. And crazy talented on the piano. Bo Burnham said he gets a lot of inspiration from him. "Prejudice" is probably the most 'reacted to' song of his. Very clever and worth checking out. He also wrote the music for Matilda the musical and the Groundhog Day musical.
Tim’s Australian and a musician who does comedy, rather than a comedian who does music! He’s a maestro on the piano, and I believe this is the only piece he does where he isn’t on the piano. Dark side- awesome version is arguably one of his best especially as you can see his comedy and musical genius all in one.
Just about anything musical by Tim Minchin is worth listening to. Try Prejudice as a start. He is also a wizard on the piano. Tim has also written a couple of musicals.
Why do people always start with Prejudice? Are Minchin fans really unaware of just how much Tim despises and regrets writing it? Oh and no Tim hasn't written a single musical, he is simply just the composer and lyricist for those musicals.
Tim is the son of a surgeon. He's also the composer of the lyrics & score of the musicals Matilda ( now a movie) & Groundhog Day. Tim's pre-West End musical success was his musical comedy. He's worked with Andrew Lloyd Webber, Bill Bailey, serious UK Shakespearean actors. He is a genius. Read his Wikipedia page which lists his academic & theatrical achievements
i think this guy just discovered his spirit animal...... or rather his spirit Australian. if your curious to see just how versatile Tim can be as an artist check out his song "white wine in the sun" i have no shame in saying as a middle aged man it kicks me in the feels every time
I actually think people are more afraid of uncertainty, which is why the seek simple answers, rather than looking into very complex questions. I'd say the people who believe in magic and other supernatural phenomena find it comforting in a world they don't understand.
Biggest thing my wife and I are teaching our 3yr old right now is to say "No" when we ask her if she knows/understands/remembers something... We want her to say No and question us back and learn
this is not a joke (well not just) it is an important message about logical thinking. these people love certainty. they are vary certain about there stance. they have a problem when the objectively variable answer contradicts the answer they want to be true.
Rewatching this too. Love your reaction to this. 😂 11:49 I don’t think people are scared of certainty. I think people are scared of not understanding the ‘why’ of things. If the truth is too complicated for them to understand.. they’ll reach for a more simplistic explanation that fits with their current ideologies. Whether it’s based in reality or not. Humans are weird man.
Tim has been my hero for many years, and now Ren is too. Both denied record deals, they have made their way independently. Like Ren he is smart, very smart, quick witted, amazing lyricist. Unlike Ren, he never learned guitar, but his piano skills put Ren to shame. In a way it is a shame you began with one of his few non piano songs. His lyrics, also like Ren's can be introspective, but his sense of humour is unparallelled. An Aussie from West Australia, who lived in UK and USA for work. He has a back catalogue of amazing songs and performances. I suggest you begin with his F you to Sony records....."Dark Side" followed by "Rock and Roll Nerd" which tell you a bit about him and introduce his humour and piano skills, then try "Prejudice" and songs like the 3 minute song, Thank You God, Inflatable You and others. Yes, he plays barefoot. His earlier songs, were perhaps written more for (dark) comedy, his later songs are a bit quieter, still lyrically brilliant. My favourite, quiet song is Aeroplane, a melancholic love song Tim wrote a few years ago. The lyrics could only have come from Tim.
@@gailseatonhumbert Thanks for that info. I was going on an old interview he did many, many years ago where he mentioned it would have been more of a social instrument, if he played guitar. I must have incorrectly deduced he did not play from that. I stand corrected. Thanks.
I do think modern medicine is limited, and alternative medicine has a place in preventitive care, but people that dismiss modern medicine entirely are crazy. Tim is a master wordsmith.
I think the uncertainty thing, at least in some cases, comes from not wanting to adjust their view regardless of what facts are presented, because facts are all up for interpretation, and 'I' don't wish to interpret it that way. It also allows people to set their own moral values and if that clashes with social norm, or again, doesn't align with facts, then 'it's all relative'. Tim ability to not only write such a witty monologue, but recite it, too.
Aussie musical comic. Brilliant. Check out Prejudice. . Hmm...I'm betting west coast...San Francisco? Seattle? Portland? . Hey, like they say, If you talk to God that's fine. If God talks to you, seek help. . John Edward was a TV "psychic" who was very good at cold reading. . F*ck living twice as long.

I mean sure, you can maintain fitness, so you're up for longer, but 90 is still 90, no matter how fit you might be. For now, anyway.

still can't get the damn thing posted
@@notrashtolerated Don’t worry about it!! Just tell me what you thought about it and I’ll be happy. ☺️
@@jackwhitbread4583 Beg to differ mate, I saw him in Perth in 2022. Had a few new ones. I've seen him three times now.
This style used to be known as "Beat poetry". Beatnik inspired1950s jazz poems. Daddio.
That’s awesome. Thanks for watching and commenting. Are there more performances in this format on TH-cam?
His song thank you god is an absolute must hear
I would love to sit down and have a conversation with Tim. He is brilliant.
Me too!
Yes, Prejudice is awesome
Tim would strongly disagree, he intensely dislikes Prejudice and deeply regrets writing it.
@@jackwhitbread4583ok. Well, I like it and I am glad he wrote it, whether Tim agrees with me or not. I could care less to be perfectly honest.
@@jackwhitbread4583 I've seen so many black americans react to it and they loved it.
Also love lullaby
"...in for a penny, in for a pound"... such a familiar moment LOL

My old man used to say a round for a pound to us growing up. Apparently it was a thing here in Vic back in the 50's/60's. Larrikins haha

@jackwhitbread4583 i start with Prejudice because I think it is outstanding. As to the rest of your comments, I bow to your superior opinion.
An aussie legend. Saw him in Melbourne in October and flying to Perth to see him next week
PREACH, TIM ❤
Yesss. So here for this.
It’s Rah-nah. ❤
Tim is the son of a surgeon. He's also the composer of the lyrics & score of the musicals Matilda ( now a movie) & Groundhog Day.
Tim's pre-West End musical success was his musical comedy.
He's worked with Andrew Lloyd Webber, Bill Bailey, serious UK Shakespearean actors. He is a genius.
Read his Wikipedia page which lists his academic & theatrical achievements
Seriously! Holy shit. He’s the real deal
For one of his actual songs.. I’d recommend ‘Prejudice’.. 😂😂
Totally agree the song prejudice hilarious
Prejudice is the song that made me fall in love with Tim
I’ll have to check that out
@@notrashtolerated an absolute must
Tim is very proudly Australian, he is a national treasure.
i think this guy just discovered his spirit animal...... or rather his spirit Australian.
if your curious to see just how versatile Tim can be as an artist check out his song "white wine in the sun" i have no shame in saying as a middle aged man it kicks me in the feels every time
the best comedy is based in truth
Watch Tim’s ‘Mitsubishi Colt’. Gold
Tim also wrote the music and lyrics for the Broadway hit "Matilda".
Yeah that’s insane. I didn’t realize how talented he was
I actually think people are more afraid of uncertainty, which is why the seek simple answers, rather than looking into very complex questions. I'd say the people who believe in magic and other supernatural phenomena find it comforting in a world they don't understand.
Tim is like Shakespeare, but for the 21st century.
Biggest thing my wife and I are teaching our 3yr old right now is to say "No" when we ask her if she knows/understands/remembers something...
We want her to say No and question us back and learn
Just a genius - everything he does is worth a look at.
this is not a joke (well not just) it is an important message about logical thinking.
these people love certainty. they are vary certain about there stance. they have a problem when the objectively variable answer contradicts the answer they want to be true.
often the truth is said in jest
It's not just jokes, he's serious.
Yeah I mean I get that
"darkside" (awesome version) is brilliant
No they are not scared of certainty, they want certainty. What they are scared of is doubt and the unknown.
My wife and I were lucky enough to travel from Canada to NYC and catch Tim Minchin live.
It was a few days before the election where Trump won 😅
Thanks ... A refreshing reaction to Storm ... Oh, and ... Enjoy watching yourself on TH-cam; There's no crime in that ! :)
Thank you for watching!
Anything Minchin is worthy. Whether it be comedy or music or serious discussion. But you probably want 'Thank you god' next.
I think you might just like Tim Minchin's "The Pope". Not sure about the first 7 seconds though, but you should be right after that.
Cheers dude.👌☮️
Cheers man 😀

Tim is a lyrical genius, apart from his comedy, he wrote the musicals Matilda and Groundhog Day. He's a singer-songwriter actor. Director.
Shit, really? That’s remarkable
Lets get him to 10K subs!
Love this!

agreed very well put
It's like watching a kindergarten kid listening to jazz
Love this. Fun reaction.
Thought I’d paid for Tommy Makem - Broad majestic Shannon - maybe didn’t do it correctly.
Highly recommend Pope Song 😂❤
Thanks for that
Try Tim’s songs Dark Side or Prejudice to show his humour and his musical ability.
Will do! I’ve got to get to some more Tim minchin
You need to watch more Tim Minchin he’s a musical genius as well as a bloody funny comedian
I do… I actually really enjoyed this
Slower pace from Tim? "Not Perfect" Simple, funny but touching.
Tim is a fantastic wordsmith
Try the Pope Song
You will be singing along as its so catchy
Don't want ya alone on the internet it leads to sore hands and outrageous lubricant bills... so ive heard 😂😢😅
Do Thank You God. It's genius
Will do, thank you!
I think you’d really like Thank You God - based on your reaction here.
I’ll have to check that one out 😀
Go along to get along! Soon what made you you will be no more! 😢
Aussie musical comic. Brilliant. Check out Prejudice.
.
Hmm...I'm betting west coast...San Francisco? Seattle? Portland?

Hey, like they say, If you talk to God that's fine. If God talks to you, seek help.

F*ck living twice as long. Now, staying fit and healthy and able for twice as long, that would be special. I mean, sure, you live till 100+ now, but that just means you're old for longer. Sad but true. I mean sure, you can maintain fitness, so you're up for longer, but 90 is still 90, no matter how fit you might be. For now, anyway.
Haha I liked this comment but yes west coast. In general a lot of metropolitan cities are pretty liberal in the states. Not sure about other places
@@notrashtolerated I know Chicago is. Not so sure about, say, Birmingham, AL...(no offense meant to Brummies, from any country).
@@notrashtoleratedI wonder if you think Tim would rather hang out with liberals rather than bible thumping conservatives?
