@rxp56 The difference is that Bill Bailey's music is not a "prop" but an integral part of his stage act. He's also extremely funny as an actor (Black Books, Saving Grace) and as a panelist (QI). He is not a simple "stand-up" comedian, nor has he ever been.

Bill Bailey is an actual comedy genius, but sometimes he's too clever for his audience!

@beeble2003 2 жыл бұрын

I don't think he was too clever. Actually, the opposite -- I love Bill Bailey but I think he chose his material for this set really badly. The stuff at the start, about US immigration, will make no sense to most Americans. Nobody knows about the details of entering their own country as a foreigner, because they've never done it. As foreigners, we find it funny to be asked if we're a Nazi, a terrorist of a spy; Americans have no idea what that form says. It would be exactly the same if an American comedian talked about UK immigration forms to a British audience. Basing a quarter of the set on the premise "hunting is bad" in a country where _a lot_ of people hunt isn't going to work. He also relies on the audience understanding what a British fox hunt is -- most Americans aren't going to have a clue about that. Then the part at the end is basically saying "Your leader sucks." Even assuming a somewhat left-leaning audience, a third of them will flat-out disagree; another third will kind of agree but feel defensive at being criticized by a foreigner. That's not going to come across well.

@dorothy1 2 жыл бұрын

I thought he chose quite well. Americans like any nation can know exactly what happens as an immigrant by simply going to any library in the nation. If they bothered. He did not say bush sucked and the hunti g bit from England, again try your local library, in the kids section.

@beeble2003 2 жыл бұрын

@@dorothy1 Sorry, where in the library can you find out about the forms that a foreign visitor has to fill in when entering the US? And, even if that information is easily available in libraries, why would anybody look it up? The question is not "can Americans find this stuff out?" Of course they can. The question is "do Americans know this stuff?"
