Another new video: Tim performing ‘Better Be Home Soon’

So yesterday we brought you Tim’s lovely new ‘Lullaby’ performed with part of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, which aired on Ben Elton’s Live from Planet Earth.

Well the next day, Tim performed a cover of the Crowded House classic ‘Better Be Home Soon’, on Adam Hills in Gordon St Tonight on ABC1, so it seems only fair that we share that performance with you too:

    Love this song and the beautiful way he sings it. I’ve had to watch this video (among other favorites) every day since discovering TIm on Conan OBrien in the USA

    Love this! Much as I love Tim’s comic lyrics it is nice to hear him doing a more serious song (and picking such a good quality one!) Such a talented man, still under rated if you ask me.

    Absolutely beautiful. xx

    Killer cover! Champ would be happy to hear you on a train, plane or automobile. Was great!

    Everyone feels homesick every now and again and there are days when you miss your family and friends more than others. The great TM manages to floor me everytime when he talks of home and makes me miss my mum & dad so much.

    A great song, sung by a great singer songwriter.

  10. Steph Dix

    All his serious songs seem to be about going home. He must either really miss Australia or hate London.

    considering you’re a ginger, australian, barefooted, painted jezzabel, that wasn’t half bad. There might be a career in entertainment for you, have you thought of throwing in a few funnies?

    Tim this is proof that you are far more than just a comedian. Your voice changes you from just the hilarious man that you are, into the hilarious man who truly is an artist with a beautiful voice.
