Thanks! I am Rebecca! Appreciate the reaction! 🥰🥰 Yes will be in Australia for Christmas! I get 2 summers this year! 😂😂 In Canada we 💯 get the white Christmas. It has been nice to have both. I can appreciate both and they both have their strengths!
I am glad you will be together for the best holiday. Thanks for the comment.
Have been privileged to see him in concert in Perth, his home city.
Just brilliant. So talented.
Tim is a master. This is a very unique Australian Christmas song.
Tim's mum died last December just weeks before xmas.
In Perth WA it can be over 100⁰ F in summer.
I was there at this performance at the Sydney Opera House
Wow, what a show!
I love how this song is about family, instead of the commercialisation of both Christmas & religions
Tim Minchin is unique. Brilliant, and unique.
Tim is self taught pianist; he was awarded an honorary Doctorate at the University of WA a number of years ago for his contribution to International arts. His acceptance speech is a must watch.
The speech was extraordinarily humble, wonderfully candid and thoughtful! 👍
Tim is one of my favourite performers. He is so multi-talented. Everything from musical comedy to lyricist and composer for musicals ( matilda and Groundhog day), television, beautiful love songs. Oh, and he is killer on the piano. He is very intelligent and a lot of his songs really make you think. Thanks for reacting to Tim. 😊
This song has me in tears every time I hear it as our only child, our son, moved to Canada in early January 2013 and has only been back once at Christmas time, to be with us and other family for Christmas Day. He moved to Canada to be with his Canadian partner, who he had met 15 months before when he was sent to Vancouver by his employer for 6 weeks, to help open up the company's first Canadian office. Sadly, his partner finds our summers unbearable - she had come down in late November 2012 for 6 weeks to spend some time with us and to help our son pack up his apartment, etc., before they flew out in early January for Vancouver. They came back in 2017 to spend Christmas but, again, she found the heat unbearable - we live in Western Australia, in a small country town east of Perth, so it's even hotter out here than the Perth metro area. Yes, we have air conditioning but she hates that if she wanted to go walking or do any outdoor activity, it had to be extremely early in the morning, before the heat became worse, or after dark but even then it was still in the mid 30sCelsius. Even spring days of 25Celsius are "too hot" to her.
Yes, we skype every Christmas but it really isn't enough - you can't hug your child, you can't sit around a table with family, chatting and, to use the Australian vernacular, "taking the piss out of each other" so that everyone around the table is laughing, watching people fall asleep on the couch or floor after a HUGE lunch, etc., through skype.
Because of the prolonged heat here, we've never been able to go to Canada for Christmas - it would mean losing all of my garden because I can't ask neighbours to have to care for my garden, as well as their own, during our very hot summer months. It's not as if we could just "pop over" for 3 or 4 days since the quickest travel time is 28 hours (with just one transit stop) and the jet lag hits badly when you arrive at the other end. Now, my husband has dementia so travelling overseas in no longer an option for us.
So this song, no matter what time of year I hear it, hits me so hard because Tim expresses exactly how a parent feels about their child, no matter their age, who lives thousands of kilometres away and what is the importance of Christmas for many of us (including myself, a fellow atheist), that it's the time for families to gather together, to express their love for each other and the joy in being with them.
A good friend of ours tutors Tim’s daughter Violet, she’s a highly intelligent and articulate young woman. They have a wonderful father-daughter relationship!
I'd love to meet him, give him a hug and say thank you for being you, thank you for writing come home cardinal pell
Big fan of Tim Minchin, smart funny and not scared.
👋👋👋👋
This bloke smashes walls with some of his stuff in a hilarious and humanitarian way. Genius Alert Mike 🤠
Australia, in its winter, gets more snow than. the Swiss alps, i think i read that somewhere once.
True. Lots of top snow fields in the blue mountains of New South Wales and some others in Victoria.
G'day, In limited parts of Australia we can get snow at Chrismas time. Not often but it can happen.
I love tim minchin. Hes incredibly intelligent and articulate. I particularly enjoy watching american youtube reactors being both amused and shocked by his songs. He doesnt hold back and is so skilled in articulating the absurd.
Tim Minchin is huge asset to Australia as he is probably one of the smartest men on the planet, he also stands up for people and is not only an author, writer, producer, actor, singer and comedian but he is an activist
But he also has a wicked sense of humour..
My favourite song by Tim is called lullaby but I’m a psych nurse and have a very dark sense of humour so the song makes me laugh
Also Tim just recently wrote a song called “play it safe” in celebration of the Sydney operas house 50th birthday. I thought you may like it as not only is it excellent but it has the wonderful Mr Jimmy Barnes singing with Tim for a very short period during music clip ❤
Best Christmas song ever!
Please do more Tim! ❤
In Perth at Christmas it gets hot , it wouldn't feel like Christmas otherwise.
ha ha... i hear ya.
I love this song. It's one of my favourite Xmas songs. If you want to check out more Tim Minchin, I highly recommend ''Heaven on Their Minds' Tim Minchin | Jesus Christ Superstar' on the channel 'The Show Must Go On'. Phenomenal performance.
And, if anyone is reading this comment, you can buy the entire Jesus Christ Superstar production on UA-cam. I highly recommend doing so if you are willing and able. Everyone, absolutely everyone in the cast, performed to perfection. It's my favourite performance of the show out of all the ones I've seen.
Looks like Tim Minchin is currently performing in Texas.
Tim comes from Perth, Western Australia. Their Christmas is like Amarillo in July !
And we sit outside under the grape arbor and nibble snacks and drink locally produced white wines. Thankyou so much for this - it reminds me of all the friends over the years and the way the children changed in variety and size.
Tim is a genius, funny, and absolutely epic pianist. His song "Grew On Me" is hilarious and also probably one of the best love songs ever written.
Nice reaction Mike. Aussie artists/ music is an amazing journey... P.S. Snow in Australia? We get more snow annually in the southern highlands than all of Switzerland.
This is more serious and sentimental Tim with just a sprinkle of humour!
Tim is a genius and fantastic pianist. His humour is intelligent and can be quite biting!
He has written music for Broadway musicals Matilda and Groundhog Day, started in tv and written tv series. Too much talent in just one ginger man!
Just gotta say. The star of this show is Mike! Most likely most of us, myself included, have grown up with these singers and have seen these clips before. Therefore, its better to have you front and center and the artist in the smaller window. Keep up the good work.
Thanks my friend
Strange point to enter the Minchin rabbit hole, but hope you keep going.... a national treasure
Sherrif Mike.. Tim Minchin is a Lyrical wizard
Cheers mate
Tim shows what a genius he is by his songwriting. Try a reaction to his beat poem called Storm from this same concert.
if it Snows during Christmas here in Australia it will be a bloody miracle well at least on the mainland i do remember high up in the mountains around
Hobart in Tasmania they had snow once or twice but then again Hobart is only a stone's throw from Antarctica well maybe 5-6 big throws lol
He's such a great songwriter. He has also written some great musicals such as Matilda and Groundhog Day.
Brilliant!!!!
Winter is winter mate. We don't get as much as you, but we still get snow.
Yeah, we might get two snow events a year here in the Dallas area, but even then it's only enough to stick around a few days.
We have some great song writers in Aussie Tim Minchin, Paul Kelly is another i could see you taking this one in you need to check out some from Paul. We do get some snow in Aussie our mountains are very low compared to America so we do not get a lot but we do get some. Great choice Way
I've done 2 paul kelly's already.. its here on the channel. Enjoy my friend.
@@SonofBuck-f7z Paul has over 200 songs he has written so 2 is a good start LOL
G’day Mal 👋
👋👋👋
This is one artist from the comedy he started with to his later serious music everything tim touches is gold. The budget allowed one more big gif this year the choice was cold chisel or watching tim being interviewed on stage for 90 minutes. Tim wins everytime
Hey Mike. We do get snow in certain areas. The weird fact is that we get more annual snow than the Swiss Alps.
All parents can relate to his lullaby song
Tim a musical comedian you don't see much of it the one you've shown
Typical Aussie will say as it is something brutally at times
As for how you do you set up its up to you and the reasons why
Just remember mate you'll never please everyone so do what's best for you and your site with censorship
Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
Thanks Dave
Listen to his song lullaby, but remember it is to be taken with a grain of salt. Don’t think he is serious.
As you could gather Tim is a atheist but a wonderful human. He was in England when he wrote this and looking forward to having a hot Xmas in Perth. If Australia was overlaid on North America it would stretch north to south from up in Hudson,s bay down to the Caribbean so we have the same variation in weather that you would expect from Canada to Cuba. It is snow season here right now in our alpine areas.
Why the "but a wonderful human"?
Thanks Way. Good choice
The further you get form the equator whether its north or south the colder it gets. The southern part of Australia especially the alpine regions definately get snow the tropical northern areas does not. I find it hard to associate xmas with the cold because in the southern hemisphere we grew up with the opposite so its really what you are used to. Great reaction Tim Minchin is a gifted pianist and talented song writer he also wrote the music for the Broadway production Matilda.
We actually do get snow in Australia we get it mostly southern states like Tasmania, in parts of Victoria and New South Wales. Mainly in the alpine regions and when it snows most of Australia feels the cold during winter. Eg. A few weeks ago It snowed in the VIC and NSW region and southern parts of Queensland (QLD) felt the brunt of it. 😂
wow....
@@SonofBuck-f7ztoday even though it has been overcast it has been muggy but within 1-2hrs from me is large mountains 🏔️
Tim Minchin wrote the world famous musical, 'Matilda,' inspired by a Roald Dahl children's book. You must check out his performance of 'Prejudice'.
My only experience of a white Christmas Day was on Mount Dandenong in the state of Victoria. The weather turned bad and there was a big hailstorm. The ground was completely covered in white hailstones and we lit a fire in the fireplace because it was sooo cold even though it was summer.
Others have written that we get more snow in winter in Oz than in Switzerland. Not quite true . We get a greater AREA of snow in the mountains but it is not as deep as in Switzerland. We do have ski resorts for snow sports. Snow can fall in every state in Oz, but mostly in the states of New South Wales and Victoria, where there are ski resorts, and in Tasmania. Australia has about seven climate zones.
Family is everything.....especially at Christmas 🎄 Yes, it is hot in WA (Western Australia) that time of year, but it is our summertime.
It is the end of winter now, and it's raining as I write this. 🌧
I'm not crying, you're crying
Hi mate, love your work,, Im happy to see you go down the Aussie rabbit hole. If you get a chance check out Monsters, by James Blunt an English x Marine. It's about his father s battle with cancer. His dad is in the video also. Keep the tissues near. Thanks mate. 🤟
Love Minchin. More please. :) I'm in Tasmania and I get a little snow each year. Better falls/coverage happen on the dividing range around the NSW/Victorian border.
He is very clever but probably not he’s best song . He is very good on the piano, try Darkside
Hard to believe but we get a lot of snow used too go as a family every year 70s/80s.
Thx Mike 😊 I’m crying again 😢
sorry my friend..
@@SonofBuck-f7z it's good tears mate. 😉
Mike it`s time for you to look at an atlas. Australia gets more snow than the Swiss Alps. I don`t know if that is a lot or not, but it sounds like a lot.
Tim is really well known internationally. He has written musicals that played on Broadway and the West End of London like Matilda. He is a controversial music comedian you could say. A lot of what he writes and sings has people reacting in some pretty weird ways and most people are in awe, especially with his playing. I hope you get to see some of his other work like Prejudice, or The Pope Song just to name two. When he wrote about the pope, he wouldn't have known how right he was about him at that point of time. Knowing (as a red pilled truther) that the pope, cardinals and bishops have all been taken by the earth alliance, military tribunalled and executed back in about 2018 and replaced with clones and CGI would make him happy but I don't think he is red pilled yet. Disclosures will come soon.
