Tim's vocal style was very reminiscent of singers from the late 10's and early 1920's with the heavy tremolo and pitch variation. Tim was fascinated by this period of American music and was quite the music scholar regarding this period. Dude would have been massive if he had only been born in 1902 instead of 1932.
I never drew that connection but I can't unhear it now. He even enunciates with the clarity of a 20s music hall singer in much of his work. I suppose this makes sense. He grew up listening to Rudy Vallée (an oft forgotten singer, sadly) and worked as an archivist. He had always been around entertainment. This is to say that I can't imagine how he wouldn't have been thoroughly influenced by the old musical styles and more antiquated tongues.
A magical moment occurred at the end of his performance. He got into the basket of an air balloon parked by the stage and then floated across the audience singing There’ll always be an England from above the cheering crowd as he floated across.
I was there mate. Tiny Tim was fantastic and I believe a hot air balloon appeared during his set. However, I think that would remember seeing a large air balloon skilfully maneuvreing its way through that crowd and plucking a 6ft 6inch falsetto with a megaphone into the Aether So I don't think that that happened. Of course, it may well have done.
@@PaulSaether he definitely was in the basket of the balloon as it floated above the crowd to the right of the stage. It was a little while after he finished and he was gone very quickly so you may have missed it.
T.T. was a very sensitive, respectful and moral person. His strangeness was just part of the act, and when he wasn't performing he was an intriguing and wonderful conversationalist. The world would be a lot better off if we had more entertainers with his moral compass and sensibilities. I miss him But who was the baroness? Was that a real woman?
Born in 1965. My mother said that as a pre-schooler I would cry (or was it scream?) whenever he came on the TV. He scared me. I'm glad he can't see this comment and be hurt by it. I'm also glad that there are videos where I can hear his real voice.
No, I think he was a huge multi-talented mixed-up person who lived his life his own way, not succumbing to fame & fortune the way many celebs did. He was always a surprise and YES, I think he was adorable
Three of those track were released very shortly after on a limited edition 78 record. There'll always be an England, Bless em All and It's a long Way to Tipperary if my memory serves 53 years later.
England's finished ethnic English will be minority in a few decades the English kids born are already minority. The Brits should of faught with Germany against communism ....are you blind?
If only this were to be sung by him at next years olympic opening ceremony. and if only he were still alive to sing it. In my own personal vision of Britain such things would come to pass. Sadly some Kitsch hubristic shit will prevail.
A great singer,comedian and corrosive contracultural man.This was Tiny Tim.He must be another member of The Mothers of Invention or maybe a rival of Zappa,i,m sure,of course.
They had it right! There was no revolution, it was all just veiled hedonism. If you need proof just look at the world the boomers created when it was “their” turn. 🤷♂️
Yes Joni could have been cheered more. It is not easy for sluts who sell their souls for money to find a meaningful place in today’s complex society. As Leonard Cohen learned “The competition is fierce. Have you ever seen the self portrait Joni did of herself naked with her legs opened wide along with fire coming out of her crotch with the caption on it reading “if you can’t take the heat stay out of my kitchen” I know that Tiny was too fair and square to ever be able to fit into that hell O I saw thousands who could have overcome the darkness but for the love of a lousy buck I watched them die.

Or 1992...
Seriously though, there's not a lot of singers who could use a megaphone as a mic, and still sound good.
@@k.o.h3599 I wish he was born in 1992! Then he'd be alive and only 5 years older than me!! Or I wish I was born years sooner 😭

At first, many in the crowd jeered Tiny Tim, calling him a poof. As soon as he started singing this, he OWNED them!
Yes, I was there and remember it well.
@@tonywilliams2611 you were there?! So lucky!!
What's a poof??

600,000 people and Tiny Tim stole the show with a loud speaker and a piano

Thanks for that info. Maybe TT flew of to Holland for a bit of Tiptoeing through the tulips?@@davidrivett7603
Tiny Tim is amazing, and I enjoyed the naked woman at the beginning.
I didn't know Tim sung there'll always be an England, happy to hear this.
eww
His repertoire was huge
T.T. was a very sensitive, respectful and moral person. His strangeness was just part of the act, and when he wasn't performing he was an intriguing and wonderful conversationalist. The world would be a lot better off if we had more entertainers with his moral compass and sensibilities. I miss him
But who was the baroness? Was that a real woman?
I went to the comments to find out more info on her.
Thus is an old comment lol
Looked like a Drag Queen
Believe it or not, Tiny took the crowd by storm!
God bless Tiny Tim.
peace and love Herbert baby......you were a great talent... and a gentle man ..
Tiny Tim was such an amazing person and talent. I am sad I did not appreciate him enough when I was a kid growing up
Me too, I got into him as a joke but the more I listened to him the more I loved him.
Me three, I had a poster of Mr Tim with the words "You Are What You Eat"
I've lived by those words and at 66yrs I wish Mr Tiny had too.
🎶RIP Mr Tim💞😏⚘

I'm sad that I was born a few days less than a year after he died 😭
A truly magical moment in history! Tim rocks!
Честный, чистый, торжественный... Ребёнок. С музыкой в сердце, в венах, в душе. 🤗
Спи, дорогой. 😇
Always loved tiny.
AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS HE WAS ADORABLE!? >-
Me! :3
Me too.. ♥
Definitely not!
No, I think he was a huge multi-talented mixed-up person who lived his life his own way, not succumbing to fame & fortune the way many celebs did. He was always a surprise and YES, I think he was adorable
His 3 (maybe 4) wives were def on the same page
Tiny tim actually sang alot of songs and he had a wonderful voice high or low
Tiny Tim kicks ass
Three of those track were released very shortly after on a limited edition 78 record. There'll always be an England, Bless em All and It's a long Way to Tipperary if my memory serves 53 years later.
And, probably, Tip toe through the Tulips.

Genius!
Pure Genius!
One darned good little old country, and don't anyone ever forget that!
There'll Always Be An England
words & music: Parker & Charles (© 1939 and all that legal stuff)
I give you a toast, ladies and gentlemen.
I give you a toast, ladies and gentlemen.
May this fair dear land we love so well
In dignity and freedom dwell.
Though worlds may change and go awry
While there is still one voice to cry
There'll always be an England
While there's a country lane,
Wherever there's a cottage small
Beside a field of grain.
There'll always be an England
While there's a busy street,
Wherever there's a turning wheel,
A million marching feet.
Red, white and blue; what does it mean to you?
Surely you're proud, shout it aloud,
"Britons, awake!"
The empire too, we can depend on you.
Freedom remains. These are the chains
Nothing can break.
There'll always be an England,
And England shall be free
If England means as much to you
As England means to me.
England's finished ethnic English will be minority in a few decades the English kids born are already minority. The Brits should of faught with Germany against communism ....are you blind?

This has been edited, he says ' behind that is Black Power and behind that is Communism ' and he may well have been right.
booed Joni Mitchell and then cheered on this guy. How square the audience were. The revolution was over at this point
They had it right!

I know that Tiny was too fair and square to ever be able to fit into that hell O
I saw thousands who could have overcome the darkness but for the love of a lousy buck I watched them die.
Joni got a bit upset because someone during her set was screaming "Joan Baez" over and over.
God bless Tiny Tim!
