My ex-girlfriend went to drama school with Bailey. He apparently dropped out after a year, feeling it wasn't doing him any good. Normally I would say, "Stay in school, kids!" But, in Bailey's case, I don't feel like it was the wrong decision. Always brilliant.
I watched Bill Bailey last night at the Palais theatre in Melbourne Australia last night and it was the best show I have ever seen, hence coming back for more on UA-cam!
Bill Bailey is a treasure - so funny, so talented; and he can dance, too! I see his hair has receded a little more, and that's not a bad thing as he has a beautifully shaped head!
Fab, as ever. And from someone who - global pandemics notwithstanding - comes to perform throughout NZ. Not many acts can claim that commitment and connection as well as that reserve of sheer talent.
@@Kris_T_ That's nonsense; the vast majority of Eurovision performers are professionals. The main requirement is that it must be a newly written song, because it's a Song Contest not a singing contest.
@@Kris_T_ Matt Monro, Cliff Richard ,Olivia Newton-John ,Lulu , The Shadows, Engelbert Humperdinck , Katrina and the Waves , Bonnie Tyler ,Blue and even Celine Dion have all taken part in Eurovision, so nothing to stop Bill.
absolutely brilliant! ❤ he really chose well both the choir and the singer - absolutely great blend of voices. Amazing to see the kids completely change the moment the music became more energized thank you very much for sharing!
cant find much of her online other then her marrying that creepy dimitri and giving up her career for him. you look her name up all you see is her with him. or even only him. sad when someone puts their talents away for someone else who does not care for your goals and happyness
@@StCreed im glad she did... giving up yourself just because your relation is a selfish idiot is not good. i hope she gains traction again in her career
The greatest performance here is clearly the lady singer's, who manages to go through her song without a flinch while Bill is actually messing around with his farting horns.
Saw him a couple of years ago, absolutely brilliant. As someone who prides himself on never swearing and never has and finds bad language both abhorrent and unnecessary it was refreshing to see a comedian who could do a routine without using a profanity of even mild intent yet still be hilariously funny.
opening his Royal Variety set with a bit about Poundland is such a power move i love it
Reality check for a bunch of them, I bet.
Particularly enjoyed Billy and K8 laughing at those punchlines! So relatable.
@@garethmcrae668 is that the couple in the balcony? who are they? why is the cameraman obsessed with them?

Bill Bailey deserves a Knighthood! End of discussion!!! He's bloody brilliant. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yes- when is he going to get one?
👍👍👍👍
I feel we should let Bill Bailey be in charge of everything, at least for a few years.
You do know that power corrupts, don't you?
@@luigimario4458 OK, then maybe just one show season.
It never ceases to amaze me how he's the baldest long-haired person i've ever seen.
That's not a review, that's biological fieldnotes! 😉
It'll recede all the way to his bum!
Yeah, just shave it off Bill
Just wait till you find out about Devon Townsend (from the mid 00's)
It's the super mullet
Kudos to her for not cracking up while singing while BB plays the bicycle horns!
Watch her singing Jerusalem with him. Very special.
I was thinking the same, i would not hold it! lol
She's got a good set of 'lungs' on her !
More impressed by the boys choir. Those kids show a lot self-control for their age.
@@jamesbarbour8400 Would gladly examine them, for purely musical research purposes, of course.
I've seen him on so many panel shows that I actually forgot just how talented he is.....
There should 100% be a UK version of School of Rock staring Bill Bailey
Yo thats epicc!!!! and maybe a collab with the american crew at a gig or competition
@@sucharsharma5725 and jack black
@@liys540 of course jack black. otherwise whats the point
@@liys540 ...and Black Books.
OMG YES
Kudos to the singers for keeping straight faces during "Silent Night"- I couldn't have!
What an utter dream for those kids. What a thing to be able to tell their grandchildren one day.
BB is just the best. His wit and humanity shines in everything he does.
Bill brightens up any dull old party.
This man is a national treasure. 👏👏

Some try those schools to determine it's not for them. It's at least good to try even if you don't complete it or feel happy about it.
I reckon he would have been bored senseless at any school....... what an imagination
Bill, is a briiliant man, entertainer, but I feel if he wire cool stetson hats etc, he really would be the coolest guy ever
He found his true calling; falconry
He’s so gifted . Can play virtually any musical instrument . A brilliant comic . And such a humble and lovely guy as well . God preserve him
...or indeed, any virtual instrument: ua-cam.com/video/ioa5qW2rrbM/v-deo.html

Just mentioning "Bill Bailey" always gets me to smile. LEGEND!
“Needs more cowbell!” Bailey is so freaking talented.

I was gutted I missed that show...
He is a national treasure and a world-wide gem. All love on BB. All hail and bow to BB!
This man is an absolute musical genius and comedy wonder. Never fails to amaze
Bill Bailey for king of the world and Eddie izzard for Queen 👑
We definitely need more metal versions of Xmas tunes
there is a video on Yt where Bill plays a metal version of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star...
Check out a guy on UA-cam called Leo Moracchioli, he does metal covers of pop songs but he's got a few Xmas ones too 🤘
It's pretty much the christian metal genre 🤣🤣
Check out the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Lots of metal xmas stuff
or check out Majestica the Christmas carol
I've had the pleasure of seeing him perform several years ago, fantastic evening that was!
Doing a sketch on Poundland, 'Those in the cheaper seats, laughing, the rest rattling their jewellery. '
Stolen from John Lennon 😅
Bill Bailey is a treasure - so funny, so talented; and he can dance, too! I see his hair has receded a little more, and that's not a bad thing as he has a beautifully shaped head!
Time is slowly unwrapping his wonderful head like a present to the world, revealing ever more entertaining contents
@@sdarryg3413 When he finally gets rid of it he will actually look like current Peter Gabriel
About time he was in the King’s New Year honours I think.
Fab, as ever. And from someone who - global pandemics notwithstanding - comes to perform throughout NZ. Not many acts can claim that commitment and connection as well as that reserve of sheer talent.
Here Here
@@zapkvr Erm… it’s actually written as ‘Hear! Hear!’
Our only hope for Eurovision victory!
Your so right !! He would be 👍 fabulous!!! Cheers 🍻
Unfortunately Bill's a professional, & Eurovision is technically only for amateurs.
@@Kris_T_ That's nonsense; the vast majority of Eurovision performers are professionals. The main requirement is that it must be a newly written song, because it's a Song Contest not a singing contest.
@@linmanfu913 The main requirement is that nobody votes for the UK, no matter the quality of the song😛

A master class in entertainment. As always.
Ooooh, that vocalist is just splendid 😜
The fist pump on "Satan's Power" killed me.
I saw him in Edinburgh in May. First lifetime experience. Stunning! Checked the backgrounds, he is still in full drive, what a Job! Never New before!
Liar
The boys are having fun too :-D
absolutely brilliant! ❤ he really chose well both the choir and the singer - absolutely great blend of voices. Amazing to see the kids completely change the moment the music became more energized
thank you very much for sharing!
One of a kind, and genuinely one of the most intelligent and talented comedians in Britain. Absolutely brill bailey I mean billiant I mean funny man
This tickled
you always bring such joy, Bill - thank you!
Bloody Awesome! He's got such a talent, comedy and musically!
Ayy that's me singing with him! On the left at the back in the robes
This seem so wonderful, no mention of covid, just pure normality and joy
William, whispering: "Kate, what is this 'Pound-land, and why is it not a part of our Commonwealth?"
“Ask Andrew, I’ve heard him mention it”
I love his wonderful y talented mixture of comedy and music.
One minute in and I'm laughing like an idiot. I love Bill. I've only seen him live once but it's a highlight of my life.
I saw him live in Brighton last week - absolutely fantastic!
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments.. I really appreciate your love and support towards me and my career..
Replying so you get the memories popping up again
He is such a great entertainer.
Long may you keep us laughing Bill 😁👍
This guy is a genius
Always fun to watch Brill Bailey.
“Been there Bruv” 😂😂
Bill Bailey is a Rock Star incognito🤘
What's this incognito, bruh?
His choice of material was a cleverly scathing irony at the audience I thought
Brill, Bill 😆💕🇬🇧 Indomentable, Infectious, Irreplaceable. Oh, and Hilarious.
I love Bill Bailey pieces
Brilliant! Always puts a smile on my face.
I saw him live in the Hong Kong comedy club in the mid 90s.
Fantastic!
A genius of our nation.👍🏻🇬🇧
Silent NIght brought tears to my eyes. (Thought I'd wet myself.)
It's annoying just how talented he is.
Love Bill Bailey to bits. Had tickets to see him this year, cancelled for Covid lockdowns. Devastated
Florence Hvorostovsky has such beautiful form and her singing is superb too.
cant find much of her online other then her marrying that creepy dimitri and giving up her career for him. you look her name up all you see is her with him. or even only him. sad when someone puts their talents away for someone else who does not care for your goals and happyness
@@sadev101 Dimitri died in 2017 so I think she took up her career again?

This crowd has never been inside a Poundland in their lives.
The master, love you Bill, don't ever stop.
Class act!
Genius. Pure genius.
None of the audience has ever stepped into a pound land
One best comic I've seen
Mercurial, a national treasure.
How can she keep singing with such a straight face????
That vibrato at 7:17 gave me goosebumps
Such talent

I'd never thought of looking at Poundland reviews. I'm now wondering if there's one from S. Ashen in Norwich.
"Absolutely awful tat. Will definitely purchase again."
One of the most interesting men on the planet !
i have no idea how the choir and singer weren't laughing when he was playing the horns lol
This guy is music god
Magnificent!
brilliant as usual
If I could play the guitar I would sooooo love to do metal versions of "normal" songs and music :D
He's not bad, all things considered. 😆
we have so many comedic geniuses in the comment section who seem to think they could do a better job.
Pure magic
Very system towards the end.......love this guy's talent
This is Eurovision Ready!
Wow! The tangible tension between that couple at 3.12.
great stuff
Everyone needs to see the Horns bit.😂😂
"Hello, I'd like a suit. But take in the sleeves so they are too tight. And make the trousers very baggy. I know, it's a unique look"
Do not leave Irons unattended ☠️
glorious!
How are they singing "Silent Night" without cracking up? 😆😂🤣😂🤣😆
lot of jokes in very short space of time - enjoyed very much
Never underestimate the comedic effect of a bunch of bike horns
STILL, PURE GENIUS 👍
Love Bill bailey
Genius, pure genius
National Treasure Status: achieved!
Satan's power just killed me 🤣
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
class!

World treasure !!!
It's Bill who's the national monument 😂
