- Tim Minchin's 13 minute extended Live version of Dark Side (and probably the best version) from his 'Are You Ready For This?' Tour.
Awesome in every way! Enjoy.
For all official Tim Minchin stuff. (Which this isn't, I'm just a fan)
Please be decent and visit www.timminchin.com or his official fan site at www.angry-feet.com - Комедії
I don't want to overstate this, but who else here watches Tim Minchin and sometimes feels like he should be the most famous person on earth?
I agree jackster. He is an absolute genius.
Yeah. Like how often have I watched his videos here and have nobody to talk to about it on the bus to church? :)
Comedy set to music so good it's stuck in your head all the time = legendary.
xamzax watching it while your going to church is classic😂
Too late you have ! but i agree he’s extremely talented individual no doubt about it
I agree..., and I have just learned about him very recently. He is truly amazing, indeed!
Don't let the comedy fool you. He's a rock star in every way.
Better than half the musicians out there that "appeal to the teenage market"
@Harry Ashley Half? Teenage market? Try "Better than 99% of the musicians out there, PERIOD"
Nah he’s just a rock and roll nerd
He’s got the look as well
Shimeeka yeah all he ever wanted to be was a rockstar on mtv
Me, as a teen: "I want to be able to play piano Rachmaninov."
Me, as an adult: "I want to be able to play piano like Tim Bloody Minchin."
Just a quick note, he does actually play a bar of Rachmaninov in there at 7:55 just before he smashes the keys. It's from Prelude in C# Minor, which, incidentally, I played as a teen =P
Me, as a teen: “I Can play dark side, YIPPEE!”
hahahaaaa
Was that a ginger joke? Oh crap no I cant say that word no Im sorry ple-
There's a key difference. "Play" and "play like"
As a touring lighting director for 23 years I *_really_* love how he integrates the LD into the show with the red lighting and then the haze machine !! The closest I got to that was when at one show the bass player was thanking the crew and forgot me, so when he said _”am I forgetting anyone?”_ I turned all the stage lights off. The mandolin/lead singer caught on, mentioned me and I had the lights explode with delight !!
This is wholesome
I wish I could have seen that, bet it was an epic moment
I'm a Sound Engineer- no compliments just complaints.
@@formerdwarf426 Hey, you knew what You were getting yourself into. If you're doing everything right, we shouldn't be sure you did anything at all.
Besides, I don't think you got into sound mixing for the fame. Though, it was probably for all the chicks.
6:27 I think he looked up and smiled at the LD lmao
The best point about this song - He plays it at the end of a 2 hour show. He is EXHAUSTED!! Yet he can whip that solo out... love it. All the versions of this song.
That's after a 2 hour show? Jesus
he really worked himself into a froth in the daddy never came tangent too.
He is not human. No human could be as talented as he is.
Wouldn't the whole show be a solo?
Also, plays bare-footed like Kate Bush 😀
"Oh, you're off-beat, wicked." I love him.
Just as I was thinking that he said it.
The audience is not clapping in tune with him, which is probably incredibly offputting
The minute of that?
White people.
its near 4:40 :)
The thing I love about Tim Minchin is that he's actually musically funny. It's one thing to integrate music into your act, it's another to make the music *part* of the comedy.
Charlie Pekin Have you heard F sharp? It's the clearest example of what you're saying, imo
Tenacious D
Man
As soon as he said in the key of C# Minor I thought "Oh like Moonlight sonata" he then proceeds to start playing moonlight sonata as part of the verse, genius.
@@sammy135_ Me too LOL
4:48 I love how quickly he shut down that atrocious clapping. What a legend.
I'm assuming you're referring to the clapping in time to the music that starts shortly into the piano interlude. The interlude I'm referring to starts 4 min 30 sec into the video clip. What does he say that shuts them down so quickly? I can't tell. Thanks.
@@scottkessler3173 He says "Oh, you're off beat. Wicked!"
@@psychoticmortacarn Thank you! It was making me crazy trying to figure it out.
And the second time they start clapping, off beat, he turns to face them a little bit, and starts stomping his foot in a pretty exaggerated way, so that they all have a visual cue to sink their clapping to! And it works!
Don't think I've ever seen that before.
A large group of white people trying to clap in time never works, but I've never seen the person on stage basically say "Hey you twats, if you have to clap, watch me!" and lead the whole audience.
I love that clapping! It may be off beat, but that’s what makes it special. When did you heard about clapping like that? Almost never!
he is one hell of a pianist
Everybody loves a pianist, but length must have it's limits.
woah there
Alexei Gregory Everyone loves a pianist, but length must have a limit.

When I asked the Genie for an twelve inch penis I got Tim Minchin.
wow, he's really deep...
Deep as, bro.
Yeh I noticed that too
Shit yeah.
YouSirHaveJustBeenShayed No...you fucking ruined it.
#deep
o my god...
I've seen this a thousand times
and i just realized hit hits that high note with his toe at 12:22
what an absolute madlad
He also kicks the piano at 12:54 for the extra "umph".
Haha that is awesome!
That's guy's really deep !
@@jeremieherard2166 Deep as, bro.
Fucka wooo!
Saw Tim live the other night. He played a bit of Darkside, and when he got to the Fur Elise part he proceeded to play it in about 10 different styles before transitioning into another song (Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen which he played entirely in the dark while the audience sang along).
Best show I've ever been to. Tim is highly talented, very intelligent and absolutely hilarious. He had the whole audience laughing between every song (despite it not actually being a comedy show).
I went to the same show and it was amazing
This song is just an excuse for Tim to flex his jazz chops.
Tetrachromia and?
Michael Fajgman And nothing. It's a great song.
The Olympics are just an excuse for countries to flex their athletic chops.
I know! Unbelievable right?! I didn’t realize how truly good a musician he was until seeing this.
That's good enough for me. :-)
I literally love this guy, but love without evidence is stalking, or so I'm told.
best comment lmfao
Nice one
Checkmate, religious fanatics!
Just to make sure I have it right (and I apologise I'm one sip a way through a bottle and 2 cones short a quarter) but are you saying love without evidence from the other party? Need to clarify because I know I love her but she doesn't know she loves me yet
Stalking without evidence is just lots of “coincidental meetings”
I just love his smug face when he starts playing für elise, it gets me laughing every time
That tiny little bit was absolutely wonderful. Just a few notes, so incredibly recognizable and then it was gone. Just delightful
he also plays a bit of flight of the bumblebee I think
@@Ghostwalker98 I started expecting it so he probably did.
And "Jeremy spoke in..."
7:29 for the funny fur elise bit.
Its insame how Tim Minchin is able to write a hilarious song that also works as an incredible piece of music and he's able to perform it at such a high standard and during it he's able to quip about the audience being offbeat. Fucking outstanding
Not to mention the emotional ride throughout.
He is Jesus.
Everytime I watch this video I look at the crowd and think WHY AREN'T YOU STANDING, WHAT MORE CAN THIS MAN DO TO MERIT A STANDING OVATION
Yeah, hes a genius! Im with you~!
Seriously. I'm always reluctant to engage in a standing ovation when I don't think it's completely deserved (cos I'm an arsehole I guess) but holy shit, I would have been the first one on my feet at the end of this.
It’s a cultural thing. Standing ovations are very rare in Australia. Artists get a round of applause and maybe a second round if they come back on quickly but that’s it. They’d better not milk that second round of applause or they’ll find themselves walking off in silence. I’ve seen that more than once.
Tim Nailed it.. it's a cultural thing, american Audiences go out expecting to have a good time, aussies (and I mean this in all due respect, as I am one) go out and will sit there with a "Go on, entertain me"
In Australia, you only stand if you really, REALLY absolutely from the bottom of your heart mean it, because if you stand and clap, the person behind you will jab you in the back and tell you to sit down so they can see! The rule is, unless you are prepared to tell them to get fucked, you're busy cheering, or it's the END OF THE WHOLE CONCERT you arent going to stand.
One of my favorite things was when he preformed this song at Albert Hall with the Heritage Orchestra and someone shouted "I'd go to your ball games Tim!" xD
ExordiumPlayz -CS:GO, Gmod and More! Who let that Australian in here?
Serenity XD
This song could be also called "how to squeeze all the music off of a piano"
Great imagery!
4:47 "oh yeah, offbeat, wicked" - what a hilarious genius
Love that he called the audience out for clapping out of time
It wasn't for clapping out of time per se, it was for clapping on the offbeat. It just makes it a little harder to follow the beat if you're not expecting it.
@@AlmostAnimixers thank you! it was not off rhythm, it was off beat. if he's playing 4:4 and they're clapping on the twos and fours, its not out of time! its just on the off beat. too many people confuse and conflate these things. 289 people need to take back their likes of something they can't possibly like, as they don't understand it at all.
@@TrapperC2112 that was very interesting to learn
Audience didn't mean to clap on the offbeat, they were just out of time from the get go and happened to be on the off for enough time to sound like they meant it. Clap coils back to the on beat by the end of that wee bit.
@@TrapperC2112 The point was it still sounded retarded... that's why Tim said something.
And if you can't read the sarcasm in the 'wicked' remark go back and take one look at his face. 4:47
"Yeah I... I can have a dark side... if you want me too vakka vam fa vam vah va va va va fuckin' I can have a dark side too fuckin' woooo!"
Best lyric ever
Definitely, just wish people didn't feel compelled to FUCKING CLAP ALONG.
+Abbie Robinson i swear to god no offense but literally every live concert i watch online or live at random intervals people clap, it has to be the most annoying thing on earth because it seems the people clapping are oblivious to the fact there is a SHOW ON, even then they can clap all they want but i swear it pisses me off even MORE when they STOP. because not only does it make them seem the biggest fool of the flock it also just show what they did even worse, its practically HIGHLIGHTING the damn people for clapping like idiots, realizing their mistake, losing the determination, stop clapping, and look literally like fools.
i swear the people who start this clapping deserve to have a spotlight put on them as they realize their obnoxiousness and stop clapping. even then they NEVER learn, i bet you these fuckers go to multiple concerts and just fucking clap every time. even worse is when a whole group of fuckwits decide to start a mini FUCKING PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN AND DROWN THE GOD DAMN ARTISTS OUT.
+Abbie Robinson Agreed! In this case I love Tim's comment about it ("Ah yeah, offbeat - wicked") which actually seems to help a bit.
What really pisses me off is people clapping as soon as there's a "soft" part in a song, I swear I've never wanted to obliterate people as much as when I went to see Opeth and people clapped like their lives depended on it during every single "soft" part.
+Abbie Robinson Disagree, the clapping DEFINITELY made this performance better, and it was short and sweet.
read this comment as he got to it lol
I am so pissed off I've only just discovered him. What a genius.
Make sure you check out his musicals too!!
Same here. How us it that ive not seen this man before?
Me too! I can’t believe that I don’t know him. Random UA-cam pop up and omg!
Same!!!
Same
He’s the only person I can think of who can literally make the audience laugh during an instrumental portion of his song purely on how he plays. To be able to articulate his humor purely through his fingers is nothing short of perfection.
I like how his dark side is 90's post grunge rock.
He certainly found his inner Eddie Vedder.
The beginning of the song sounds almost exactly like a Linkin Park song from Hybrid Theory
@@phoenixrussell8304he beginning is Linkin Park lol
"oh yeah, off-beat, wicked."
4:35
Thank you
literally laughed out loud. i am in love
Love how they all stop clapping immediately
@@melissabailey789 They feel the shame
I'll bet he drove his piano teacher crazy...the world's got enough 'normal' jazz pianists....I'm SO glad Tim decided to follow his own path. Simply amazing, both musically and comedy-wise. Brilliant lyrics, awesome chops, great comedic timing, (not to mention the face!) incredible. Well done, Australia.
I don’t think he was taught
He’s just an one of those rare examples of someone doing exactly what the universe meant for him to be doing.
tim is self taught
Self-taught to my understanding.
He isn't a God, HE IS GOD!
I could listen to him just play piano, for hours and hours. I could listen to him sing, even without the piano. I could listen to him do stand up comedy or simply just listen to his opinions and point of view about anything. And the fact that we get to hear him do all of those things at once, is a gift. Tim, you’re a gift.
Amen! (Not magically or mystically lol)
He is Jesus... just think about it...
Man, that guy is deep.
Andrew McLean deep as...
Yeah I noticed that too, aye.
Yeah, he's really deep. Man.
magyar nep
Shit yea
Join the Dark side. We have cookies and Tim Minchin.
SIGN ME UP :D
yep
indeed
ill trade my soul to join
ill trade my D
Every once in a while someone like Tim Minchin comes along. Rarely. Aren't we lucky
Best 13 minutes and 28 seconds I’ve *ever* spent.
I can only hope you went on to discover Tim's other great work. Storm being one of them (the live version). That's another 9 minutes well spent.
i don't think we could emotionally handle it if Tim collaborated with Bo Burnham
I love Bo Burnham, he’s a great comedian, but he just doesn’t have the same level of musical talent that Tim Minchin displays. It’d be like watching Usain bolt race the winner of highschool sports day race
Sam Cooper I think bo's the better lyricist between the two, and he's no slouch musically himself. Just because he writes simple music doesn't mean he's a simple musician
Ryan Alexander Music i never said he was. I fully agree that he's an excellent musician and i might even have agreed with regards to his lyrical superiority if it werent for Minchin's Thank You God which i believe is better written than any of Bo Burnham's songs I've seen. I find Bo Burnham funnier overall though, i laugh alot more watching his shows.
I think they're styles are different enough to make it weird if they collaborated
What about stephen lynch
best 240p video available on the internet
Ragnokos Holy moly, did not even notice that the quality wasn't bad :D
Gaiden Shinji I’m confused to your comment
I'm confused about my comment.
@@denisdenak why are you confused? just dont be confused
@TILTED Phoenix This is all very confusing
It's cool that when he pauses for a bit, or even gets up and runs around, he comes back in on the beat. He has great timing, both musically and comedically.
his face before fur elise is perfect. It looks like he just noticed what he was playing and went with it
His piano must have been red hot after this. So much admiration for this man. He's the reason I still have a go at my piano after years without lessons.
Get lessons if you can, it's definitely worth it. People like Tim are a rare exception, being self-taught is a bragging right for sure but getting the best teacher you can will improve your playing so much more than just being self-taught, and it's never too late to learn more.
Not only is TIm a comedic genius, and by god he is, he's also an absolutely amazing singer and pianist who would still be famous even without the comedy. I'm so glad he did get into comedy though.
And a pretty good actor. I just finished watching the series Upright and I loved it.
@@kellydalstok8900 and director and poet. He could be famous at about 5 different things individually.
I play piano pretty damn well and can I just say what an ABSOLUTE FEAT THIS IS!! to play like this is fucking UNIMAGINABLE to me I could NEVER do this. He deserves more credit.
At 76 I’m almost old enough to be his granny but I just love this guy. What a talent, amazing! So, so funny and poignant.
FUCK so much talent!!! How the hell does one person posses this much talent!?!
+Aania Naseer HEY, IT'S YOU AGAIN
IT’S YOU OH MY GOD
So you’re a fan of Jacksfilms, Bo Burnham, AND Tim Minchin? I’m beginning to like you very much
SAME :D
+Aania Naseer Get a room you two. :)
Tim is SUCH an incredible pianist! Truly world class. His odd-timed and syncopated style is really impressive. It is hard enough to play that style for a few bars, but to practically play a whole song(s) while singing no less!) is down right incredible. I hope I have the opportunity to see him play live someday.
I love living in times where we can watch such an awesome performance over and over again without being there at the time.
I love finding such jewels of art, music and dedication.
THANKS.
I've been fortunate to live through a lot of great things in my time. The existence of Tim Minchin is high up on that list. Way high up. We're privileged to have him.
Agrreed.👍
Tim's great in the series Upright fabulous show
Tim minchin can hit any random number of notes and make it sound perfect.......... LEGEND
Tim Minchin is, frankly, quite amazing. The performance was funny, musically exquisite and he knows how to put up an unique and entertaining show, I find at least. But what impressed me most of all, is that he somehow inspires me to explore my long buried musical self again. How's that for a compliment?
Does your long-buried musical self appeal to the teenage market?
Docktor Jim Judging from my oh-so tortured soul, I should probably appeal well enough. I'd rather use my music to tackle world poverty though.
Harry Silver Hmm. Have you seen "Fuck the Poor" by Tim Minchin?
I don't _really_ give two shits about some kids in Bangalore; why do you ask?
Harry Silver Make sure you add some minor chords to make it sound more compassionate.
Although this was a comedy play, his “acting” for emotions seems so true and raw
Tim is already an accomplished actor, he's been in several shows!
This is even more amazing when you consider the fact that Tim had no formal classical or jazz training, only had a few piano lessons as a kid then gave up completely for years and was then completely self taught when he took up piano again in early adulthood
Very impressive indeed his piano is phenomenal
I genuinely didn’t believe you. I really thought he had been classically trained. Insane stuff.
@@heysimone me too, his technique has lots of hallmarks of being classically trained - strong arch hand shape, level wrist and curved strong fingers with the right balance of stability, suppleness and flexibility. He must’ve carefully and diligently observed top pianists
@@sacrilegiousboi978
Tim’s interviews are very interesting. He speaks of his 3 years of very basic piano lessons as a child, which he said he wasn’t very good at.
Quite a bit of variety about his life in different interviews - very interesting, down to earth intelligent man indeed. He can be hysterically funny or quite serious. A lovely family man.
13 and a half minutes of rocking out, chair dancing to this is the best thing that's happened to me in the last couple of days.
I will never take good music for granted again.
9:30 randomly transcends into Pearl Jam. Perfection.
I love how he tells the audience they are offbeat. It's just something that happens a lot and most performers are just stuck with it - might be forced to make adjustments or whatever to fit that, might be thrown offbeat themselves or just be annoyed. But he just tells them and they stop. I think this is a lesson, if you perform somewhere and the audience does something distracting or wrong, to just tell them.
I can confirm that he appeals to the teenage market.
Wow, what an amazing performance. He works so hard. I hated when the audience started clapping off beat, but it was redeemed by that awesome moment when Tim promptly told them to shut the fuck up.
I think it was hillarious, there's no reason for you to hate it. it's a comedy which was empowered by the clueless audience, tim is the first one who would admit it.
I think you and I are saying the same thing
Wait when did he say that? I think I missed it.
Sheng-Yuan Music 4:45
being off beat does NOT mean being out of rhythm. playing off beat is not unusual for whole bars, or even entire songs, and for any percussionist worth their weight, is very important. its how the rest of the band can be in 4:4 while the drums are going off in 7:8, and you don't even realize you're hearing two time signatures. but i reckon if you can't tell when a clap is off beat vs not in rhythm, then you'd never realize you're hearing two time signatures.
that fur elise transition was too good
8 years have passed and we still have not reached the bottom, how deep it is...
+2 years in a pademic, i think we've reached the bottom
@@douglasdemiranda721 I'm just finding this guy this very night
@@douglasdemiranda721 putin should end it all
It’s always a good night when Tim minchin ends up on your playlists 😁
"Oh you're off beat, wicked..." XD
Just realized that just before the Fur Elize phrase he actually was playing a portion of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No.2 Movement 2. Roughly 6 minutes 50 seconds in (on spotify) for those that want to listen to it. Starts at about 7:00 here too which is crazy, probably not coincidence. Dude is insanely talented.
And, maybe a bit of Flight of the Bumblebee too
It may be weird, but I feel after this one song as if I were there for the whole show and had that feeling which concerts tend to create in a person.
I almost forgot this! 12:18 when Tim "toes" a key for emphasis. Just fantastic.
That piano solo at 4:36 is amazing. I don't even have anything else to say about it, it's just amazing.
so CLEAN
It's just pure distilled genius, mesmerising and wonderful
@@kcinstic3012 CLEAN as, bro.
I wonder what it’s like to be this insanely talented: as a pianist, humorist, singer, song writer, and social commentator. Cuz, he seems happy!
I have come to the conclusion that this entire song is just TIm flexing on us with his piano skills.
Ever since the Mid 2000's. I come back to Tim for a Mental reset.
Thanks my Man. Your company has been more than a warm hug when needed.
LMAO he kicks the piano at 12:20 at "if you want me too vakka va bakabakandowishmr fuckin' WOO"
+TinyPerson456 HAHAHAHA
Dude's actually got a pretty freaking good voice under the clown act. Though the clown act is hilarious enough.
Can we just take a moment...and appreciate that high them high notes
Never heard of him before watching this. I'm honestly speechless.
Welcome to reality!!! Tim is the meaning of life.
Congratulations, you just found one of the most talented artists of our time, and a great human too.
Not only is Tim a brilliant comic, he's also a brilliant musician.
The level of skill and entertainment value you have to have to be successful is insane
I love his comedy, i love his atheism believes.
But I ADORE his piano playing.
It’s exquisite to listen to.
Not many performers can keep you listening & engaged in such a manner ♥️
He really is deep. He's a ridiculously talented guy. Comedy, piano, vocals, intelligent deep thoughts. Classy dude too.
best 13 minutes of my life
The Universe just introduced me to him at 66, all my angst, nievity, inner sex Goddess, teenage rock and roller, marching for civil justice drive, inner ballerina and tap dancer are ALIVE at once!
What a wholesale comment!
@@joyeboye_ I couldn't help myself...Tim really has got that something special!

Holy Christ that’s sick
Tim Minchin is both a master pianist and a hilarious comedian. A great combo. A legendary combo. Not nearly as famous and well known as he should be. He is well known, but not the billions of views that he should have imo.
That guy's really deep.
Shit yeah
Deep ass, bro.
@Zerion Can't tell if this is deliberate or just a hilarious mistake.

Love this bit
This is, without a doubt, one of the greatest things I have ever seen or heard!
Tim tends to be brilliant at being brilliant. He could be famous at about 5 different things individually.
Tim Minchin is my pick-me-up: so authentically funny and creatively ‘out there’. He’s the least afraid person I have ever watched perform; he’s mastered the art of being simultaneously authentic, brilliantly ridiculous, and poignantly on point.
he may be a comedian, but damn can he shred on a piano!
Best piano solo I have ever heard
My favorite version of the Daddy never came part: putting the hair over his face, the emotional face before he starts singing, and especially the freak out! Definitely, pain he can do!
July 2021:
My mum was a piano teacher and I so wish she was here to see this GENIUS
She might not have got all his humor but definitely would appreciate his piano skills - I ADORE TIM and everything he does
This video never gets boring
A lifetime later, I can confirm…it indeed doesn’t ever get old.
Tim is so clever with rhythms as well as all of the improvisation, he's just so damn good. And all self taught too!
Telling the crowd they are off beat is the most underrated statement in the history of live performances.
The amount of time I see live music and think the same. How hard is it people… really 🙄
This is a banger. I have no words.
I really hadn't discovered the breadth (I'm refusing to use "depth" to describe this) of this guy's musical talent. He's got a fully functioning Jazz/Blues musician in him! This piece is wonderful, or at least this performance! Wow!
i think he is too good for jazz or blues.... hes in a category of his own...
smidget whittington
blues is simple music made attractive by raw musical talent. check.
Jazz, on the other hand, is played by musicians with the best technical skills, or would you call Dizzy Gillespie, John Coltrane and so on (and there are loads of them there, who are virtually wizards with their instruments) musicians with "average" technical skill.
i mean, it's one thing if you don't understand music, another entirely if you don't like jazz/blues. did you ever hear Thelonius Monk?
@@smidget5843 Tim can't even read or write music. He just never bothered learning it.
"You could be clever as Voltaire, but it won't get you nowhere if you wanna sell discs...it doesn't appeal to the teenage market" rumbles in my head so much!! That and "Daddy never came to my ball games..." Brilliant.
That piano is being kicked and hit and it still knows few people could play it with such love
Just got home from a Minchin concert - had to immediately put this masterpiece on.
+tim minchin
You sir can perform and do it bloody well!
Hahaha! Good 1 bro!
This just played after I'll Take Lonely Tonight in my music playlist and goodness it's a tone shift but also somewhat fits well together. Tim Minchin is just amazing and such a talent. And those piano skills!
I love Tim's range. He's really good at humour and irony, but he doesn't have to rely on it. He can sometimes be straightforward and sincere. And either way he's top class.
Tim IS deep. This guy owns the damn piano. Watch him live, I've never regretted it.
Edit: LOL that "Jeremy has spoken"... this is early Pearl Jam Jeremy and Black put together 😍
As has been said about many people, there is a fine line between genius and madness... and Tim Minchin seems to use that fine line as a skipping rope. Being a former pianist myself, he is bloody brilliant!
That was dramatic, shocking, unique, very musical and very entertaining. This bloke is is genius. One hundred percent. THANKS TIM
10 years later and I'm still watching the "awesome version"
nothing could be more awesome than the awesome version.
you know, with all the humor and funny stuff he makes, i sometimes forget that Tim Minchin is genuinely one of the best performing musicians of our time
Not just musician. He is also one of the best writers/ poets of our time and a great philosopher. Performances like Storm and Mitsubishi Colt spring to mind. Not to mention he is also a good actor. Judas' Final Moments from Jesus Christ Superstar is pretty devastating.
The world needs more Tim Minchin!
This is not only a comedic and truly beautiful song. This is a fackin masterpiece 💯
