The natural heir to Tom Lehrer, cracking hot pianist with a really clever comic mind. And eyeliner.

You can recognize a good entertainer easily: When the crowd laughs when he insults it, he is great.

Oh man - the very first line of his song is SO hilarious. "We don't eat pigs" then he pauses for the perfect amount of time before "You don't eat pigs"... Cracked me up. He's so awesome.

Love it! When the audience barely sing along and he says "oh you're crap" gets me in stitches :D

it's funny and all, but i can't get enough of that piano segment... to beautiful

This guy is so talented, watching his solo piano work is amazing.

He's encapsulating everything good about the arts and putting a higher importance on intelligence in that community. He is edgy but soft.

Me and three others bought tickets today to see him in Septermber, tim!

I dont know much about piano, but he seems amazing to the point where he could continue just on his musical talent alone

this is one of those rare songs that is funny the 15th time you watch it. mind you thats always the case with Tim

He's such an incredibly talented pianist it blows my mind.

HOW DO YOU PLAY THE PIANO LIKE THAT?

"Oh you're crap" LOL!!!!

This is really funny and at the same time Tim Minchin is presenting a very valid point - we should look for similarities, rather than differences ;) Enjoyed this a lot, thank you!

He's bloody hillarious, I burst out laughing at the end where he goes 'ROCK' and then goes really fast XD

"So if you don't eat pigs, and we" "..... don't eat pigs" "Nah u're crap!" instant love! :p

I have been trying to learn this for about an hour and i can play the first two bars of the beautiful classical intro. Only the right hand part, i'm not good enough for the full thing yet! One day though.

Awesome! Comedians playing musical instruments certainly isn't new, but he's the first "musical comedian" I've ever seen who I'd pay to see, sans comedy. Friggin' amazing chops on that piano.

The sound of this song is amazing.. and the lyrics are godlike

Tim Minchin is a brilliant pianist and such an amazing comedian.... I absolutely love him, this made me smile :D

I'd love Tim to release an album of his piano work. :)

Wow. I'd be equally happy to see him at a comedy club or a piano recital!

"SING if we don't eat pigs and you don't eat pigs OH, YOU'RE CRAP" AHA, i love himmm! Pure talent! such an amazing pianist!!

The only time I've seen Tim in shoes was when I met him after his gig earlier this year. He was brilliant. Just saw him again recently. He was amazing. He states that him not wearing shoes is just an affectation in his song So F**king Rock!

His piano skills are epic!

His face at the end when he says "sure" is classic!

i love the way he says 'sure' at the end.

haha he has such a contagious smile ^^

*pause* "ROCK!" *epic piano!*

love the chopin-esque, high speed, cadenza style ending!!!!

yay, this is where i first saw dear Tim, and i've loved him ever since! thanks for uploading!

this guy is fabulous! i was doing research on a thesis paper on Obesity and ran across him ... im hooked and now side tracked for the evening .... thank you Minchin

busking on the gaza strip... :)

genius lol... i love the build up to the last verse

bloody love him

i can play that almost as fast as him!

i would love to go to one of his gigs

I'm palestinian, LOVE IT!

its aa beautiful tune, and the fact its Tims makes it so much better

i love him!! all his stuff is amazing and he's so talented!! :D

Tim Minchin rules! I'm so glad hes coming to my town to do a show!

Lol, I'm really starting to love him. The intro sounds so beautiful

whenever there is a free piano at my uni this is the first thing a friend on my course plays. haha. TIm is epic

The message in this song makes us all think "What are they waiting for?"

Hes so awesome.

Man is he epic in this clip... on his show it was a bit more laid back suppose it just makes him all the more brilliant. =)

He's a brilliant pianist..

omg. his piano skills are amazing

the comedy lie's in the seriousness of th piano and the lack of seriousness in the vocals... i love it XD

This has to be one of the most ridiculous songs to get stuck in your head. Especially when you're on the bus and you suddenly come out with "we don't eat pigs, you don't eat pigs..." I bloody love it though! He's an absolute genuis :)

Tim's face at the end 'Sure!'

He's so good!!

Omg tim minchin is blumin awsome!

Rock!

Love this guy and this song!

Wow. Awesome musically and funny. What a great combo!

the thing he does with his voice at 2:57 is so cool (it probably has a italian sounding specification but I don't know it)

great talent !

ROCK!

great to see humour winning the day here.. everyone who seen past it all give yourselves a huge one :~) Peace all

He was amazing at Leeds Festival!

Thanks!

Tim you are awesome !!!!!

I love this man!!!

haha that's the reason I found him too! He was great on it...

omg. he is a good pianist.

My inspiration!

brilliant music

yes

This man has serious talent on the piano. And he is funny as hell.

he looked so happy at the end lol

He's fucking hilarious, but his "Crack addict" look makes it perfect.

Hahaha at the end when he's like "sure" XD

ROCK

i love that guy

Oh my lord. I either crapped my pants or my heart exploded. When Tim plays its like conjuring up a tornado!

is he born with a piano at his hands? O___o

love this :)

Loool this dude is crazzy but i love his songs eather way ...its just when he goes *ROCK*.. and at the end hes like "Sure" Loool

rock!!!

he's brilliant on a side note is that russle t davis ( head writer of doctor who) in the audience

ROCK......

Legend

@Boogieforme He's self-taught ;-) He took pianolessons for 3 years, but thought the whole discipline thingy sucked, so he quit, only to return to it after rediscovering the piano through composing for school-theater ;-)

Oh his piano playing is heavenly, makes me wish I didn't quit my classes =(

the beginning of the song sounds like it came straight out of an old final fantasy game.

yeah his smile is gorgeous :D

A ROCKING peace anthem is all they need :D

Brilliant!

Please! Can somebody help me to find the text of this song. My English isn't well enough to understand all the nuances of his song.

tim minchin is awesome!

Oh, yeah, who wouldn't feel soiled by not only providing nice music, but great acting and humor to boot? :)

does anyone else get reminded of the puppet at the end of chitty chitty bang bang at the end of this? i love tim XD

I clicked on this because I thought it was going to be an Anthem for 'Plasticine'..

He's so talented :)

hahaaaaaa !!! this guy's unique !!!!!! i love the ending "shure !!!(smile) "

@JohnThurcaston it's in 3/4 for the most of it but the very last bit (That's really fast) is in 2/4. =)

awesome pianist and so funny

I do, please !!

i love at 2:11 hes like woah a revelation
