The thing that always amazes me about Robin Williams is how he performs stand up with the zeal and conviction of a baptist preacher, stage presence of a rock star, and improvs like a great jazz artist. You can tell part of it is planned but he is going off in the moment, working the audience like two instrumentalists playing off of each other.
You're definitely not alone in that feeling. The day he passed there were multiple people who text me asking if I was ok. They knew how much I liked his work & still do! Ha he would've had a TON of fun with everything going on these days.
When Stevie Ray Vaughan passed away... I cried.... Robin Williams made me laugh till I cried when I heard of his passing my eyes watered up thank God we still have his work that he left behind probably the greatest comedian ever
It was so brilliant and bold for Robin to speak about HIV/AIDS on live tv in the 80s. Im sure there are many people here that werent born yet, too young or grew up in small towns where no one spoke about it. So many dont know how many were sick...and how most treated them all like filth. It was scary and awful. So many people died far too young. So many died waiting for help. ❤
Reagan like Trump.... fools who couldn't lead our country, when leadership was so badly needed.... AIDS & COVID. it only affects a few people and it will be over by Easter.
WOW 8 minutes of comedic genius talking about sex and diseases without a curse word! I miss Robin for sure. His own daughter Zelda quoted from the The Little Prince-"In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing,when you look at the sky at night". Then she said. you- you alone will have the stars as no one else has them, I'll try to keep looking up😢. Memory Eternal ~Robin Williams.
He did massive amounts of Cocaine in the 80's. He often did so much at times in his stand up you can just see the sweat pouring off of him. I loved him so much, We all miss him. Such a wonderful human too.
Robin Williams. Known world wide, very famous even here in Italy... and yet it annoys me that nobody here knows why he was so great. Most italian people have never heard his million voices, have never seen a single piece of his stand-up and have never heard him improvise, spawning a millions jokes in a minute from a single word. So sad, what a beautiful talent, as a comedian, as an actor, unique, creative, heartfelt. An old italian movie says "What is genius? It is imagination, intuition, decision and fast execution.", if that is true, Robin Williams was a true genius.
The relevancy kills me. It still feels current. Or perhaps it’s that he was in a league of his own cause nobody around has that certain element Robin had.
I wish you had known how many people would have dropped what there were doing to tell you how important you were to them. I still can't believe you're gone.
Billie Fingers it broke my heart when I heard, it's so sad because everyone loved him. The only problem is, no amount of love and support can make you happy if you can't find that in yourself.
Its not that he didn't know. Its what he knew. He was so self aware. He knew he couldn't live without pleasing people. What is it to lose the body but not the soul? He could have lived with depression, he had for 60 years. He couldn't live without performing.
It must have been agony for him to know he was losing all that talent, that speed lightning mind little by little. To know that your brain is withering away must be the saddest way to go. The body is strong but the lights are dimming. I understand why he took his life. You will always be a legend. Thanks for the laughter Robin.
Yeah, when I found out the whys.....combined with the fact that he'd faced down addiction and severe mental health struggles his whole life, all I could think was "What possible other choice could he have had?" Especially because the exact combination of diagnosis is.....next level hell. And I imagine he was already deteriorating pretty badly and wanted to go out while he was still him. And that will never stop breaking my heart. My favorite actor, comedian, hell, favorite human being I don't know personally. It's very rare a day goes by I don't think of him.
I think you've hit it. Must have been terrible realising what you had and slowly feeling it slip away. Reminiscent of the Hal 9000 in 2001 space odyssey. When Dave the astronaut slowly closed down Hals higher brain functions. Jonathon swift the great essayist was out walking and came across a tree where all the leaves at the top had died and changed colour. All the rest were still green. And he realised that it would happen to him. 'I shall die at the top first....'
@@chanellevenes1150Robin was suffering from Lewy body dementia, misdiagnosed as Parkinson's. He was experiencing severe changes in cognition, memory loss, sleep impairment, and loss of motor control. A devastating condition for a comedic and kinetic genius.
Thank you, Robin. If you're looking down, you know how much I needed to hear your brilliant words at this moment. We all love you and miss you so very much💛⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️
SO WAIT A SEC.. HERE I'm all SORTSA HELLA CONFUSED THIS WASN'T SOME LATE NIGHT TALK SHOW HOST JUST ASKING HIM TO COME OUT WITH A HUMDRUM TALKING ABOUT THE AWARDS HE'S RECIEVED AND BEING BORING AS ALL GET OUT EHH.. N/M THIS WAS THE SNL SKIT WITH ROBIN IN/ON IT
I remember watching this episode when I was in high school. Can't believe he got away with that monologue back in 1988. When he hosted snl it was always the funniest ever
He was a man who could make you feel so many emotions in just seconds & behind it all he struggling silently while giving a lot of a reason to live on.
During this pandemic, we’ve been watching everything with Robin Williams. We just found this today. There will never be a comedian or versatile actor like Robin Williams, again. RIP, Robin!
@@christianschoff2490 Neither did we! It popped up on my suggestion list, too! We thought we’d watched everything with Robin Williams that existed on UA-cam, but nooo. We’re happy for another!
Every now and then i look for a video of Robin, because i miss him so much. I've never seen this one before, and i'm amazed (as usually with him) with the sheer energy, full force of nature and incredible courage to speak about AIDS in that way at that time. Many people don't remember, but it was sensed as a very complex, shaming and terrible topic. To naturalize it, to acknowleged it and to be able to talk about it in the 80's and 90's, required ''balls''. Loved you then, love you even more now Robin.
I saw his photo on the front of the Chronicle newspaper and thought it was about an upcoming show. Looked closer and pointed the paper to everyone l passed on the street that fateful, hole in my heart morning. Such disbelief, lost, unending tears. Missed and loved are understated words. Still so very missed. Still so very loved.
Robin was found by a TV producer as he was doing his act on a street corner in LA. True! They were looking for a fill in actor for a TV show - and the producer grabs Robin and takes him to the studio and of course he was spectacular in the role. After that one show - they began work on a show just for Robin and two weeks later the first episode of Mork & Mindy was on the air. 2 weeks from street corner act to Number 1 TV show inception. An incredible talent! (I think the producer was the late Garry Marshall) We are all geniuses when we are in the right environment.
He was discovered at the Comedy Store doing stand up (not on a street corner) by a producer for Laugh-In. He also appeared on the Richard Pryor Show. A few months later he appeared as Mork on Happy Days after they needed a replacement for a recently departed actor and then a few months after that, Mork and Mindy premiered. It wasn't 2 weeks and Mork and Mindy was never a #1 show and they didn't work on a show just for him right after the Laugh-In appearance. Once they saw him as Mork, the show was written to incorporate his zany nature but adjusting a show to suit an actor isn't uncommon. None of that takes anything away from Robin and his phenomenal talent and it was still a quick rise to stardom, but that's what really happened according to multiple sources. Regardless of how his rise happened, he was one of the greatest entertainers to ever live.
What it must have been like to be inside his brain...The buzzing, whirring,.the clanging, the colours the roller coasters, the merry go rounds, the screaming and the crying and the laughing...but now all still.....and like the empty fair ground.....just some paper blowing and the ferris wheel stopped. A lonely clown crying by the mirror maze......
You capture him so well. He was a genuine comedic genius. A much missed voice to parody and tear apart pretenders and fools alike. I'm glad we had him for as long as we did but I think he left a hole in the hearts of many of us.
I miss him so much. I'm gen x, remember looking forward each week , for new "Mork and Mindy" . Then, as I got older, I realized, Robin was truly a genius comic mind. His passing messed me up for a little while, I was already dealing with some "issues " , I find out that day , one of my very favorites passed, the way he did...my own headspace...was in the same neighborhood....at that time. I'm ok now....then. that was rough.
If you have never seen it, find Robin's episode on a show called Inside the actors studio. A truly great performance. From what I understand they had cut down Robin's 5 hours of basically doing improv to 2 hours to make the show. RIP Robin Williams. One of the truly great comedians who was taken from us too soon.
Pity & shame that he never truly appreciated how deeply loved he was, how outrageously talented he was, and that none of us knew or understood how deeply troubled he was. So many choose to leave us every day. All those voices silent, all those smiles and faces forever lost.
wow, what a presence, monologue, performance and authenticity, like you feel it's coming from his own imagination unlike these days they tell jokes like robots, lifeless. Robin is a legend. RIP.
So sad that a talent as huge as his..that had the entire world in the palm of his hand, had problems just like many people today..he left a huge hole in the entertainment industry..definatly a legend
Robin once made fun od me on "The Tonight Show" in 2003 when I accidentally passed out on camera. Knowing Robion, its amazing to see that this whole monolog was improvised!
An outstanding comedian that never failed to empress and make you laugh. When I first seen him on Happy Days in 1975, you knew there was going to be someone special that would make the world laugh, right up there with Richard Pryor and today with Dave Chappell...God's gift to us to help take the edge off life's crappy days...🙃
Robin was brilliant, imagine the guts it took to do that routine and pull it off ! You only have to look at the band members cracking up in the background...
He was an amazing dancer, singer, actor, comedian but, most importantly, A great humanitarian. He came from a wealthy and privileged family and had been raised in the realm of "classic" graces. He learned to let loose in his late teens, early twenties.
The thing that always amazes me about Robin Williams is how he performs stand up with the zeal and conviction of a baptist preacher, stage presence of a rock star, and improvs like a great jazz artist. You can tell part of it is planned but he is going off in the moment, working the audience like two instrumentalists playing off of each other.
“Not even a German Geneticist could have thought that one up!”
Cocaine
Right on ✌️
His timing was better than the actual jokes. His voices and the way he played up a joke was so much skill that most comedians would deliver it flat
That’s the best description of Robin Williams I’ve ever read!
There will never be another Robin Williams. One of a kind actor, comedian, and performer. RIP.
Forever and ever, amen.
Indeed
Btw...Gerardo Herrera...
Best name ever!
Amen to that!
There probably would be but people are not allowed to express themselves anymore because humor is forbidden.
You're only given one little spark of madness... you mustn't lose it. - Robin Williams
Great quote..!
Thank you…
Full-tilt-bozo was great.
Don't worry, I havent
Well he did a LOT of cocaine too, that helped his madness and energy quite a bit.
Compare SNL monologues nowadays to the one Robin did on this occasion! It’s like 10 openings for SNL in one! Genius at his best
Not too many performers have had me in tears when they passed away. Losing Robin still gets to me.
You're definitely not alone in that feeling. The day he passed there were multiple people who text me asking if I was ok. They knew how much I liked his work & still do! Ha he would've had a TON of fun with everything going on these days.
I know, it was like everybody lost a “Funny Uncle”.
Not a day goes by when I dont think about him in some capacity he was so good my all time favorite.
Me too
When Stevie Ray Vaughan passed away... I cried.... Robin Williams made me laugh till I cried when I heard of his passing my eyes watered up thank God we still have his work that he left behind probably the greatest comedian ever
His dancing at the beginning was great.
It was so brilliant and bold for Robin to speak about HIV/AIDS on live tv in the 80s. Im sure there are many people here that werent born yet, too young or grew up in small towns where no one spoke about it. So many dont know how many were sick...and how most treated them all like filth.
It was scary and awful. So many people died far too young. So many died waiting for help. ❤
Totally agree 💯%
Horrible memories - and all true
Reagan like Trump.... fools who couldn't lead our country, when leadership was so badly needed.... AIDS & COVID. it only affects a few people and it will be over by Easter.
Indeed. If only they could have just.. stopped having promiscuous sex.
Look how people reacted with covid !
There will never another Robin Williams - ever!
I really miss him!
The energy + brilliance = Genius!!! AMAZING! So grateful for Robin Williams! RIP!!!
He won a Golden Globe on the same night.
"I will part you like the red sea" Bahahaha!! Oh Robin Williams, you are sorely missed x
A visually great bit.
Unreal. Great routine (no one else could do this) and I had no idea he had dance moves like that. R.I.P. Robin Williams.
Lightning in a bottle. Absolutely incredible man.
I love what David Letterman said about him when he first saw Robin perform, he said it was like Hurricane Williams!
Well spoken
WOW 8 minutes of comedic genius talking about sex and diseases without a curse word! I miss Robin for sure. His own daughter Zelda quoted from the The Little Prince-"In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing.

The energy, THE ENERGGGYYYYYY!
The cocaïne, the cocaaaaaaaaïne!
It was a joke. And apparently he was indeed
Cocaine is a hell of a drug ha
He did massive amounts of Cocaine in the 80's. He often did so much at times in his stand up you can just see the sweat pouring off of him. I loved him so much, We all miss him. Such a wonderful human too.
Cocaiina...
What a monologue. He was ahead of his time. Such energy and for 9 mins. He was truly a performer.
This man was a f*ing gift from the Heavens to humanity.
