A true original. Thank you for sharing your genius with the world; you’ve made a lifelong fan out of this American lady
My Aunty in the UK went to get her grandson a copy of ‘You so F*****g Rock’ she couldn’t bring herself to say the word to ask for it so she phoned her daughter and got her to say it over the phone!!!
My daughter turned me on to you and said, “Don’t you think grandma would have liked him?” The answer was, “Yes, she would have loved him!” My mom was a professional piano player and her favorite stuff to play was silly, old songs from the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, but especially parodies. I grew up listening to her play crazy, little, unknown tunes, then sharing with my friends. I have so missed her and can’t begin to thank you enough for working hard to become famous so you could share this great musical niche.
I’m an agnostic in southern Oregon, USA…Maybe , I’m the only one. Today, I listened to White wine in the sun. It was the first time since I played it to the most wonderful Mum a man could ask for. She left this earth, last January. No, I don’t know where she went. But she sure did love that song. I played it for her last Christmas, when she was so ill. I just want to tell you thank you, for putting a smile and a tear to both of our faces.
I bought a park, this summer. No, its a first for me. I bought it, because Mum would have wanted me to. Mum used to swim there, with all us kids, in the best swimming hole in Oregon. . I’m naming it Merete’s Cove after my Mum.Its one of the worlds most beautiful places. I’m trying to build a beautiful bandstand there. Mum loved music. I welcome you to sing there someday. I know its a little crazy. But including you, there would be at least two Atheists near the stage. Three including my sweet daughter, Brook, who also loves your music. Maybe I dream too big……. Either way, My family will be listening to white wine in the sun, this Christmas, and thinking of Mum.
Hi Tim – My wife and I saw you in Thousand Oaks on Saturday and said “hello” afterwards. We’re the couple from Phoenix who mentioned to you that I played piano and sang at her over the Internet and in return she married me. Pretty good trade, honestly. We made it back safely, by the way. Anyway I just wanted to drop a note to say thank you for such a fantastic show, and your transformative influence on my life. I’m very very very happy to be able to say that I shook your hand, and I’m very very very sad that I declined to be in the picture that you took with my wife. Come back soon!

Hey Tim&Co.
I first saw u(tim) @ moorabbin town hall in 05 and was soooooo fu***ng impressed-u r a genius. My sister thinks ur weird and even though i sort of agree, i still think u r awsome-kEEP IT UP.
Hey hey tim, the donut shop that I work at (Puffin Fresh Whitfords City, Perth) just started distributing Canvas Bags. Well not canvas as such, but those big reusable hard plasticy ones. I’m not too sure what they’re actually made of, but I’m very glad, because I was previously getting told off by my boss for not offering customers plastic bags to put their multiple donuts in. ‘It can’t be that hard to just *carry* them, guys, Do it for the environment.’ But apparently there’s no room for environmental friendliness in the world of donut retail.
Well g2g, I’m off to work :D
was the photographer at your radio recording at the drill hall london on the 2 nov which was great fun…loved the song about pigs very funny,hope to catch a show at the duchess got some great shots for the bbc too!!!!
To Blake:
I really meant that i dont think
We get circumsised
You get circumsised
Why not get circumsised togethor would sound as good as.
We dont eat pigs etc.
Maybe i was wrong…
Your music has been with me through some tough times in America. I am a Black woman. I don’t have much hope for changing my stars. But hearing your excellent voice rock n rolling my troubles away… at least for a day… keeps me sane. I know you do the same for millions around the world. It was my birthday a few days ago. I turned 46. I hope to see you live again before I reach 50. I promised my niece (she’s always challenging me) that I would chase one dream this year. I hope I don’t sound too weird when I say, I want to sit in that future audience of Minchin fans and scream my head off for you again. My humble dream. Much love from Portland, Oregon USA.
Thanks for the positive in this sea of controversy. I liked your message so much I bought the book!
Hi Tim. Mike from Tampa here. Once you hit 70, you start thinking of things you’d like to do while you still can. My daughter and I saw your NYC TM & his Piano and London Songs the World Will Never Hear shows. Hard to to top that. Then it hit me. Dream big! Would you consider bringing back your Royal Albert Hall Orchestra show? I’m a tennis player. Your NYC and London shows coincided with the US Open and Wimbledon. It was much easier selling going across the pond to my velp, if I also got to attend one of the majors. Thanks. Mike
I’m thankful you came to Toowoomba. Watching real people with really amazing talent was a blast of fresh air, blowing away the junk that builds up from scrolling. Phew, you came in time. Thanks again xxxx
Dearest Tim, I just wanted to post a thank you / congratulations, to you and your team on the end of your tour; the gig in Toowoomba was the perfect finale! Thank you for sharing your new work with us tonight, we could all see what it meant to you, although I did have a pretty good view of your celebratory Hi-5 during the next number. I am just hoping that tonight you felt the love of an entire generation of students, from one of those special tax exempt organisations, here in Toowoomba. Starting them with ‘Storm’ in the middle years Philosophy elective, and always ending with your UWA speech for the Yr 12’s…I’m not saying that you are a ‘tool’, but you know what? You were a great tool! Someone, whose intelligence and wit opened the eyes of a generation, and more importantly, gave hope to those who thought, or were at a minimum, interested in thinking… Love your work – its importance simply can’t be measured!
Hi Tim, I was listening to White Wine in the Sun again today. It pops up in my social media memories all the time because I’ve shared it so much over the years. My Dad really loved Christmas — he loved having everyone around him. He passed away in 2019, on the 17th of December, at 80 years of age. He just wanted to make it to one more Christmas. Upright came out that same month. The song Carry You, and the series itself, absolutely broke me… but somehow carried me through as well. I don’t think I really grieved in the way I expected to until this year. Suddenly, it’s hitting me like a train.I really miss him. This Christmas it will be just my Mum and me. I’m towing my little 1986 Viscount caravan up to the lake at Wooroonook, Victoria, to try to make something meaningful of the day for her. She’s 81 now and struggling to get around. My brother, sister-in-law, niece, nephew, and even my sons won’t be there. It’s going to be a hard one. Christmas just doesn’t bring me joy anymore. But still, I’ll sip white wine in the sun, think of my Dad, and try to make a happy memory with Mum — because I know her time is drawing close too. I just wanted to say thank you. Your music has a way of touching people at their deepest places, and these songs have been a part of my healing more than you could know. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family and I hope you keep writing the kind of music that reaches people when they need it most. Thank you ~ Megan xo
Dear Tim. We went to your concert in Canberra tonight. We have to drive 2 +1/2 hours and stay overnight. It was very well worth that effort. There were many moments that made us laugh and cry and think deeply about my life and where to from here. We are in our senior years and enjoyed it all immensely. We have followed your career from the beginning and as rusted on nerds will continue to do so. I saw Matilda the musical live in Sydney and enjoyed that very much. Would love to see Groundhog if it comes our way. Thanks again for all the music and the chat. Loved it all. Love to you and your family. Coral
I saw your show in Brisbane on Friday with my partner. I have never seen a crowd so obedient to putting their phones down. We all desperately wanted to photograph the real life Tim Minchin for ourselves. Many took the sneaky blurry shots that will forever be the bragging point over Christmas dinner. The recovery from accidentally entertaining the comedian in the crowd, to the perfectly balanced sound was amazing. Thank you for giving us almost an hour of extra entertainment. Absolutely worth it. I’m so glad I saw this before seeing Metallica tickets. It would have been a hard choice. Probably would have still chosen you. This is a big tick on my life bucket list.
Hi Tim. Mike from Tampa here. My daughter and I loved yer show at the Apollo. Matilda at Cambridge there’s… no words. The London sites and a day at Wimbledon after 7 hours on the que. Could’ve been perfect, butt…You didn’t do Airport Piano, so this is all your fault. I had to do it. I’m a 70, mediocre singer, though energetic and enthusiastic. I sang Airport Piano at Karaoke last night. Sounds ok but… I live in a nudist resort. My 70 y/o 140lb nekid scrawny bod singing my favorite song. I’d include a vid, except cameras are not allowed…
Hi. I just wanted to say. I’m finally listening to “Time Machine” (I was going to do it sooner, but it felt so weird to do so right after Tom died. I felt like I had to listen to him for awhile first). And I got to The Song of The Masochocist… and broke down crying. When “Apart Together” came out it was not a good time. For anyone really. I’m in the US and it was just. SO BAD. And then that album came out and I listened on repeat. And it made things better. I would just lay in bed as it felt like we were in the 10th, 11th, 12th month of the apocalypse and would cry as songs like “The Absence of You” comforted me against the absence of the WORLD. Because that was it, the whole WORLD was a hole and it was missing and everything was horrible. And “Apart Together” was what kept ME together. And listening to “Time Machine”, 4 tracks in, and I broke down sobbing because I had somehow forgotten just how much hearing your music when I’m in a dark place, like I am again, can just mend me and make it ok. Even for a little bit. And I had always hoped someday I could tell you that in person but, I’m an American, nope, so here I am. Anyway, thanks. For putting this box here and for making all the music you do. I’ve been listening for a long time, and you’ve gotten me through so much. Thank you for everything.
This is silly because I don’t really think you will read it in person but I still want to say Thank you for saving my marriage! We’ve been through a lot and there are so many times I’ve just wanted to walk away from everything. It took me a long time to discover you (since I live in Sweden where “everyone” says “Heh, Tim who?”) but the two first songs I heard were White wine in the sun (which reminded me of the importance of family) and Not perfect (which reminded me that I am pretty nice and can stand myself). Your rock ‘n’ roll nerding makes me happy and your love songs make me sad and happy at the same time and I confess the huuuuge confirmation biases ? My 50th birthday was coming up and I felt trapped, old and unloved. I thought about spending it in Paris all by myself. Then you unveiled your UK tour! Bam! I bought tickets to Edinburgh and told my husband that he could come with me if he promised to try to understand WHY I really had to go and he was not allowed ruin it! He prepared by listening to the songs and our kids gave him “clues and keys to mummy” and he nailed them all. I haven’t felt so loved in years! And to be there seeing and hearing you live, sharing tears of laughter and touched hearts, feeling his eyes on me when I was ALIVE for the first time in years and holding his hand to all the lovesongs (including the boobs ?)… yes, you saved us. Thank you ??
…and here is the rest…

Oh, it is row C, and it is the Center of the room…very good seats. The opening bid is $50 for all 3, but the buy-them-now price is $100. Auction ends at about 3:30pm EST Friday…thanks!
Again, the Ebay listing is http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170662075586
Hey Tim, you are wonderful. A good musician, artist, comedian.. Your mix of truth, jokes, feelings is perfect, every time I hear your music, I love it as on the first day ;-)
One last wish. PLEASE come to Germany! One time, Frankfurt perhaps? I would love to see you live, if you come, you will get a free drink from me :D
Tim, My son turned me onto you and from there I turn on my boyfriend and anyone else that I thought could appreciate you. Thank you for playing Austin, TX. That show was on my son’s birthday and I was able to get tickets for him, his wife and myself. My boyfriend passed last January but I purchased a forth ticket anyway. Thank you for closing the show with “White Wine” which my boyfriend and I had chose for our Christmas song and “Halleluiah” which my boyfriend introduced me to. The show was entertaining to me and emotional for me. You are very talented and I am not aware of another solo act who can hold a audience for that length of time. Truly enjoyable.
AS an avid fan for a couple of years I am thrilled to be seeing you tonight. I purchased tickets on the day they went on sale and got seats towards the back. As a fluke I just checked again what was available- and scored….Middle of front row. I will be the grinning Englishman in the pink shirt. So now I have spare tickets I am attempting to give away.
The Austin show was great! Thanks for the awesome performance Tim!
Saw you in Anaheim CA. You were great! Loved the show and cant wait to see you again.
Tim,
Thank you for a wonderful show in Anaheim. It was great to hear some old favorites and some new songs as well. I have always wanted to go to one of your shows and now, because you have traveled, I have! Please forgive some of the rude audience members. Your music has made a difference in my life and continues to make me smile. I was so excited it was all I could but grin and smile during the whole concert. I was the one in the orange shirt, front row, stage left. Thank you!
Saw you in the FRONT ROW in “Anti-Hymen” last night and wanted you to know how much I enjoyed what you do… You are truly a master at your game, topping Tom Lehrer and even the late George Carlin. The OC Grove made a huge error with Ticketmaster which prevented your having a full house–even if you were in the bastion of fundamentalist religion in Orange County. I’m so glad you performed and was not disappointed at all!
Now if we could only get US distribution on your CDs and DVDs! ITunes says we have to have an account with the UK iTunes to buy, and that’s gotta be killing your sales.
I’ll be doing my part in making you viral on the net… you are special!
Totally delighted to have seen your show last night in Anaheim, thank you for touring the USA. As a fellow Aussie (from Perth) and a ginger (yes, it’s true) I loved every moment from the opening Rock N Roll Nerd, through Prejudice (good on ya ginger – I can call you that, right?) to White Wine in the Sun. I brought 3 guests along and they were (naturally) SO impressed. So, yeah, thanks for being a genius and doing what you do, it was great.
Tim, thanks for making me smile, even when I am sad.
I like apples, but I like them best when listening to songs about boobs.
Hey Tim. Love your work. But you gotta get your stuff out to North America cuz there is really no where for us to access all your great material.
Tim!!!
I am such a huge fan! Let me start out by telling you that I’m a ginger too! The first time i heard Prejudice the lyrics really spoke to me. I said to myself wow! this guy really knows what he’s talking about! From the first time i saw canvas bags ive been such a huge fan! My two friends Sam and Katie and I are going to see you in Philly on July 22 and were soooo excited!!! i really hope i get to meet you!!! Gingers forever!!! (we should make up a secret ginger handshake or something!) see you soon!!! -Amy
Vote for Tim! He is #10 on the list.

Tim!! I have to say i’m a bit of a new fan, of which i fully blame my friends for not telling me about your epic-genius songs, as i asked them all yesterday if they knew who you were and they all replied, ” oh yea that man with guyliner “. So anyway I’m hoping to get tickets for the Greenwich comedy festival, (yay go Londoners!) so that i can see your smelly feet and take a sample of the smelliness and clone them so we can all have Tim Minchin feet…which obviously everyone wants! But really though i cant wait to see you live! Your songs make me laugh so awkwardly on a silent bus, and i totally wish i found out about you sooner!! And you also have cool hair and eyes because your obviously so fucking rock!
Rach loves Tim!!
Mr. Minchin – I came home today and was linked to a youtube video of your Pope song. As I am a Catholic, my friend warned me in advanced I might be offended. I just wanted to let you know that I *wasn’t* offended in the slightest, in fact I totally agree with your message. If you get slack for this song, don’t accept it! You make a valid point and the Pope should be ashamed of himself.
I really look forward to listening to some more of your work, and hope it continues to be just as good! Best of luck in the future!
KAM
Hey! Your work is amazing!!!! youve got to come to houston soon!!!!!!!!! wish i could see you live!!
What’s up my Ginger!! Saw your show last night in San Francisco and you were amazing!!! You made me laugh, you touched my heart and made me a fan for life. Can’t wait till you perform in Northern California again. Please don’t make us wait too long!
Thanks for last night. You rocked my world like no one else could…
Absolutely 100% AMAZING is all I can say about you
(and very gorgeous too ;) )
Fav song atm tied between Darkside and Lullaby, but they’re all brill, goes without saying
Looking forward to going to your next gig
: )
Hey Tim,
I enjoy your commedy beyond cliche, you regularly manage to go beyond the repetetive reinstatement of trivialities that has become so characteristic of modern commedy.
It’s probably strange to apply the same rules to art as to science; but since you proclaim a rational outlook on the world I cannot resist ;-) When I listened to “Storm”; I couldn’t help but think that you might have an outdated theory of science. The problem of postmodern science seems to be that Storm (if she had read a bit of wikipedia first) may win the argument. This is due to the fact that our “observations” are inevitably theory-infected. How do you know what you observe without having a theory about the units that make up an observation? The regularity of scientific revolutions and paradigm shifts makes it hard to believe in the truth content of science; knowledge does not cummulate over time (or only indirectly), since the new theoretical terms cannot be translated into the terms of the old theory. The conclusion most people reach so far is: We have to accept some basic principles on faith, we cannot know whether science gets it right; only believe in the method. One can only win the argument against Storm, if she already shares some common believes one can appeal to.
Ok, this was enough nerdiness for the day :D I wish your show all the success it deserves (much!)
Tim, no Toronto dates on your tour? How disappointing. Wish you’d put Toronto on your list for your next North American tour. Would definitely buy tickets! Just getting to know you and your stuff. Amazing! Can only imagine what a live performance would be like.
Oh no! Just went backwards on your calendar and saw that you were in Toronto in early June. I am now kicking myself silly for missing it! I can only hope that you will be coming back in the not-too-distant future. :'(
Tim!! My bestie and I are headed to Atlanta in the morning and are trekking the 8 hours from New Orleans to see you!! We know it will be well worth the road trip!! We can’t wait to see you and your barefeet live at Center Stage!!
Hi Tim!
Please come to Sweden sometime soon! I, as well as thousands of other swedes, am dying to see you live! You are brilliant.
I just got done watching Tim Minchin Rock n Roll nerd. Seeing your success story is quite inspiring. Tim, you are a very lucky man… Not only are you down to earth and have a great talent, but you got something which a lot of men can only dream off, Sarah, your wife. Someone who obviously love you very much. Someone who supports you no matter how hard it gets and someone who believes in you. It’s also nice to see that you haven’t taken her for granted either. The love you two share is truly heartwarming and I sincerely wish you great successes..
Dear Tim, I just picked up my first Tim Minchin album, Darkside. It is just as excellent as I expected after hearing your stuff on the Non Prophets podcast. I hope to see you here in Finland some day!
Was looking at the tour dates – Dublin in October but no Belfast? D: pleaseee come to Belfast sometime this year <3
Hi Tim, my brother and I are huge fans. We would love to see you perform one day in Belgium. But we are planning to come to England (as soon as we can) to see one of your gigs. We love your lyrics and we admire your music! Best wishes from Belgium!
Last night I saw Tim Minchin in Atlanta. He “So F*#king Rocked”! The show was great as I expected it would be. He played a lot of songs that we were familiar with and a few new songs. I would love to tell you about them, but I’ll keep it a secret until you get a chance to hear them yourself… but I am confident you will love them as the whole audience in Atlanta was laughing. The sound was great, we didn’t miss a word and the venue (Center Stage) was small and comfortable, everyone was close, so close that at one encore he didn’t use a mic and we still were able to hear him well. If Tim comes to your city, I recommend seeing the show… you will love it.
It was great to see so many fans anxious to see Tim play. I estimate there were a thousand heathens and many knew most of the songs. I hope we get to see him in South Florida… I will be there too.
We were lucky enough to catch Tim’s show in Atlanta last night, at Center Stage Theater. My husband and I had fantastic seats, I nearly caught the lyrics sheet to a new song “Context” which made me laugh my ass off!!!
We both agreed that we’ll be seeing Tim anytime he comes through Atlanta.
Thanks for a GREAT SHOW TIM!!!!
My girlfriend surprised me with tickets to your show in Atlanta this week. It was an awesome show. As the last finale your version of Hallelujah was nothing short of spectacular. Thank you for that moment. You said during the song that it was the greatest song ever written. I will concede that it is one of the best, to be certain, but in my opinion “White Wine in the Sun” is a better song. So much depth. The passion that song evokes is amazing. It defines being a son, and a father both in the most sublime way. Thank you.
Thrilled that my speck got to experience your speck in Minneapolis tonight! You do humanity proud with your blend of genius, humility, rationalism and humor. Kudos and gratitude.
I was so sad, I bought tickets to your show in Australia in 2009 and we were unable to attend :( then in 2010 we moved to Minneapolis for 3 years so when we saw you on Conan we started looking for where you were playing nothing was going to stop us from going! I was so excited and you didn’t dissapoint us, we have been watching you for a very long time (not stalking) I think we first saw you on the “Sideshow” in Australia! Can hardly wait till you come over again we will be waiting! I loved the song “White wine in the sun” we are going home for the first time this christmas and it reminded me of what is to come Thanks xxx
G’day Tim,
Great show in Atlanta the other night,
Best line of the night “I think I just called atheism a religion”.
3 bad things about the night for me,
The Tshirts were sold out,don’t you want my money.
You didn’t sing white wine I am a Aussie living in Atlanta.
And you didn’t come out so you could hear me bitch about the first two.
Mate, thanks for a very funny night keep up the great work
Hey Tim, thanks so much for coming all the way to Minneapolis! Your performance was quite enjoyable (maybe even “deep”), and meeting you after the show was a very special treat. You’ve earned two new lifetime fans with your talent, wit, brilliance, and with the kind patience you displayed when confronted by a mob of strange fans outside the stage doors. Please come back again someday!
Tim (or Tim’s minders), when are you going to post a video to YouTube of Thank You God? It is sorely lacking and it’s one of your most lyrically brilliant songs. The version with the SSO was superb and deserves to be seen by many, many people. Please please please do this. Pretty please?
Drove 327 miles to catch you in St. Louis….YOU SO F**KING ROCK DUDE ! ! !
My girlfriend turned me onto you…she has such skills>>SHE F**CKING ROXS TOO ! ! ! ! Can you make them sell your t-shirts in the US…puuuh leeeze ! ! !
YIPPEE ! ! ! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr ….
Great show at the Pantages in Minneapolis MN. I’m a 50 year old dad that drove my two kids 18 and 20, 535 miles one way to your show. (They are avid fans) They have been following you on YouTube and said I just had to watch…which I did…and really really enjoyed your material. Being raised in the Lutheran faith and marrying a Catholic, was “forced” to raise my kids in that despicable manner due to the demanding traits of the Fucking Pope. We have all since ‘seen the light’ so to speak. Your comments that 85% of the theater was atheist, I believe was spot on, which really tells you there are many of us that lie to ourselves (the Hallelujah song was amazing). You can’t tell me a bunch of non-church going atheist could sing that well without a life time in church… really makes you wonder just how many of us are out there secretly setting in the pews say to ourselves what the fuck am I doing here. Keep up the great work…. very impressive 3 standing ovations.
Saw you in MPLS MN, last weekend. I had never heard of you and since the show, have been telling everyone about you, your humor and musical talent. VERY impressive show, laughed my ass off, ( The ginger song was my favorite). Keep up the good work brother and I hope you make it back here soon.
Saw you in Minneapolis and had an ear to ear grin the entire show. Absolutely loved the encores and had a good laugh with the (equally rabidly atheist) SO over your comments about that room of 85% Atheists.
I only wish we’d have had a longer time with you. I sort of have a sad now. :(
Excellent performance and we’ll be making plans to see you again if you’re back in our area (which means IL/WI/MN to me. Oh, I’ll travel to see you again, no question.) I’ll also be dragging any and all of my Atheist/skeptic/kickass friends along. They’d love you, too!
Be well. <3
Just love you, Tim! I wish you would tour Japan where I could see you. I have to enjoy you via the DVD format. You are Eddie Izzard, Richard Dawkins, and PDQ Bach all rolled into one. I have laughed so hard I’ve cried, and your drive for people to THINK is just brilliant. Keep going. You are the best Rock-n-Roll nerd ever!
Hi Tim,
Doug from Albuquerque. Met you at the Largo in LA. You asked me where Albuquerque was.
I am in DC looking forward to your show at the Warner. I am bringing 5 Tim virgins to the show maybe more.
Would you like a dinner recommendation or some dinner guests before the show? I am following you on twitter. @douglascoplen.
Yippie!!
Please please please please please COME TO SOUTH AFRICA! You have a MAD (in a good way..) fanbase here, seriously I couldn’t believe it when Geoff Coates said he plays for you and yet he still hasn’t recommended SA as an epic place to tour. So do it. We have sunshine, and interesting people, who love you as only people who have never actually met you can.
Hey Tim, I have a suggestion (and request.) I’d love to see a canvas bag with an image from your Canvas Bags video. Perhaps the frame when you’re all getting blown away by the large fan, or the shot right before the image of the earth, or the shot when you’re releasing the dove, or the last group shot before you get ported back to reality. Heck, you could offer all four as a set! I’d have my birthday gift shopping done for the entire year!
Aye Tim! Please come to Germany!!!
hey tim :) you may hear this often but youre great.
my boyfriend showed me some of your videos and i was like omg whos that crazy guy?
yeah well, see you in october in dublin. i bought these tickets as a present for my boyfriendyfriendy cause he loves you so much. and i love him so i thought WTH you can do this for him.
youre always welcome in germany, you know? so we dont have to come to the UK or ireland everytime :p
Hey Tim, I just got back from seeing your show at the TLA in Philadelphia. I’ve got to say that out of all the concerts or shows I’ve been to, I looked forward to yours the most; you certainly did not disappoint. Just one thing: I would love to see you record and release Hallelujah. Why? Because I honestly think if you do not, many people will be deprived of the wondrous beauty you created and extended by make an already gorgeous song even more so.
Hats off to you, sir, and thank you for making my entire summer.
Hello Tim,
I have been quite a huge fan of your work for a few years now. I see you will be performing in Canada in a week’s time. Is there any chance you might consider visiting us in the west? Maybe Vancouver? I do hope your trip to our country is a wonderful adventure for you. Much love to you and your family.
Just got home from your DC concert. I really loved it. I only knew of your song Storm and some friends invited me. Now I am a huge fan. You are very deep :) and brilliant. Looking forward to when I can see you again in concert. Now I am going to look around and purchase some of your music. Will be telling some of my friends about you and the few non-believer family members I have.
Cheers!
Hi Tim!
Just saw you in D.C. What an amazing show – you had me in stitches one moment, and brought tears to my eyes the next.
And what a HUGE surprise to run into you and the crew at the resturant a bit later.
Thank you being so gracious – I appreciate the hand shake, and the chance to chat for a moment. I can’t explain just how much you mean to me, but I will say that I’m so happy for all of your success. Thank you for making a stop in D.C., and I look forward to seeing you again. Take care, be safe . . .
~ David
Come to Brazil!
Thank you for an incredible show in D.C.! I’ve been a big fan for years and had been eagerly waiting for you to tour close enough to where I live to see you live – the four hour drive was completely worth it. I really appreciate you coming outside after the show and spending so much time with your fans trying to give everyone a moment (and letting us get pictures!), it meant a lot. Hopefully you’ll be back to the US east coast again soon!
Loved the DC show! We travelled from Lancaster PA to see you and it was well worth it! A few of us here in the heart of conservative Amish (think “The Good Book”) country are doing our part to help spread your message and expose others to your huge. . .talent! Thanks!
Oy Tim! Saw you in D.C. and fell more in love with you (if that’s possible). You were fantastic, sir! Please return to the states at some point so I can stop watching you on Youtube (as much).
Your show was the best birthday present I’ve ever had. BTW – Star wars fan (1983 birthyear) and married, counter to your claim.
i love you
Never was much into musical comedy. Always liked to keep music serious and comedy, well you know. I’m from a small town in Sweden so when this girl I know, she’s also Swedish but she lives in London, asked me if I’d heard of Tim Minchin I said no. And then we sat down together and watched Storm.
Made me laugh a lot, sure, but more importantly it sums up the way I feel about that stuff and and wraps it up in a quite lovely package. When I got home I went on Itunes and bought your stuff there and listened to it. Over and over again. It’s brilliant. That’s the word I’ll have to use. So. Next goal will be caching a show somewhere.
Thanks for opening up my mind a little bit (Not to much though. I’ve heard things about what could happen.)

Hi Tim, congratulations on your inclusion in the Variety list of Top 10 comedians. Your fans are all (vicariously) very proud of you down here in Sydney. Looking forward to more of your performances going on sale. We have actually been hoping that a DVD of your performance with the SSO at the Sydney Opera House will also be produced for distribution, especially as the live telecast already exists. It was fantastic – and really re-created the feeling of being there (we were at the first of the SOH concerts and loved it). I’m sure the Royal Albert Hall DVD is very good, but there was an intimacy to the Sydney performance – with our very own SSO – that we’re sure the home crowd would really appreciate. Here’s hoping! In any case, ALL THE BEST!!
I would just like to say that you could possibly be the musician of the millenium. I cant wait ’til your back in Australia!!!!
Tim,
I think you’re the BEST musician/comedian ever!! So witty and such xD I love you’re live shows and can’t wait to see you at the Beautiful Days Festival!! I’ll be the one at the front shouting how much I love you (I hope my girlfriend doesn’t mind…) Give me a shoutout? :L Just pulling ya leg, but I would like to bring you some cookies.. :D
Thanks for being so awesome, keep it up! :D x
Hey Tim, I just wanted to say THANKS for a great show last weekend @ the Warner in DC. Please don’t be a stranger and come back to the area sometime in the near future…we will all make it our mission to spread your word and give you a sell-out crowd next time you’re here. I hope you enjoyed your visit and that your US tour went well. I cannot thank you enough for what can only be described as an amazing experience, to mix comedy and music in perfect proportions, yielding the performance of a lifetime. Words, and succinctness, are not my strong suit, so I’ll leave it @ “THANK YOU!” (and forget the empty seats that make baby jesus cry; better to have 800 loyal friends than 1500 cynics). :-) Cheers!
coommeee to bouuurrnnneeemoouuttthhhh :D pplleeaassee :D :D i loves you :) xxx
Heard an interview with you on NPR today . . . now I’m a fan!
Mr. Minchin!
I loved your Washington D.C. show and was very glad (and surprised) I got to meet you after the show. Dare I say it, your music and playing moves me. That was the best evening of entertainment I have had in a long time and I just wanted to thank you.
dear mr minchin. come on over to sweden. we´re atleast 3 guys lovin your work :)
My partner and I had the privilege of seeing you live in Montreal last night. You sir put on a fantastic show. Thank you very, very much!
Hey Tim, I’m an Aussie living in Brazil, I got married here last year and gave the guests canvas bags to take home! :) woohooo
I’m an English teacher here in Brazil (where the first sentence ppl learn is “the book is on the table’), and unfortunatly my students know more about English grammar than most of (all) of my Australian friends (and myself, but as I am a teacher I cannot let them know).. Please write a song about grammar, and it’s misuse (then/ than, it’s/ its and how Maccas has the right to use ‘lovin’ etc) I was shocked when a student asked me to review the verb ‘to be’ with the class. I told the students that I needed to print out a worksheet and left the classroom (to ask another teacher what on Earth my students were on about). Why was I never told that is, was, are and were are all linked?
I’m going to use your song ‘ Prejudice’ in an advanced class, because it ‘s fantastic! Keep performing. Lovin’ your work! ;)
I was SO happy to have seen you live in Montreal! Thank you for taking the time to have a picture taken with us :D
I hope I get to see you perform in Sidney or London someday!
