Hi Tim. Yesterday evening I was sitting in my room with my laptop, chatting with my friends over Skype. I noticed a mosquito trying to find its way out of my window, but failed because of my mosquito net. I noticed the irony of the situation, laughed a bit and told this to my friend. He said: '"there are locks on our doors to keep the bad guys outside, but also to lock ourselves in" or something along those lines, by Tim Minchin'. I asked who this guy was. He said 'some F***ING great dude, bloody genious'. He said I should watch some of his videos on Youtube. So I did. The first one was "If I Didn't Have you". My first reaction was "he looks just like Jack Sparrow" :D I liked the song, it was very funny, and very clever, actually hilarious. My friend suggested to watch "10 foot cock and a few hundred virgins" next, so I eagerly did. It blew my mind. I was hooked. It was brilliant. Halfway through the song I realised I was to be your fan and admirer forever. Good Sir, I so much wish you could sing Inflatable You in my wedding. :) Please keep on making music. Don't you dare to stop.
IT'S A SECRET on Tuesday, 30 June 2009
HELLO <3 I really wish I could come and bring you cookies, but it's a bit far.. they would taste nicer fresh...im guessing. Though I don't really know why I'm criticising my own hypthetical cookies. But damnit, they'd be the best hypothetical cookies ever, fresh or ...un-fresh. I think it would be worth flying to Australia (i assume thats where you live... I should go and wikipedia you *stalks*) just to give you some cookies. That'd be AWESURM C: And I could see Kangaroooooos (yes, i believe that's how you spell it) and Koala bears. AND OMG i could go to Ramsay street! It obviously exists. HAY, I JUST HAD AN AMAYSIN IDEA. I'll go to Ramsay Street first and buy you REAL cookies from the General Store C: I <3 NEIGHBOURS It's so much better than English soaps, they go on for ages.. Like this one guy needed a Kidney for like 6 months. This woman wrote in the paper that she was so sick of that storyline she almost donated one of her own Kidneys. LOL. But anyways, in Neighbours, it moves so quickly! Like the episode when they wiped out half of Ramsay street in a plane crash. Good Times, good times. OMG wikipedia says you now live in London!! O M G. Wikipedia better not have let me down, it has lied in the past...I just don't know if I'm ready to trust it again, it's a big step, you know? Im sure you do. WHY WOULDNT YOU. Im quite tired now, I think I've exhausted myself with obsessive fandom. AND btw, my names Eleanor. It's tertully top secret but i'm guessing most people will have given up by now. If you have continued, you may want to ask yourself why? You should really get out more (says the girl who's writing her life story out on a forum-ish-thing at half ten at night). But srsly, this is quite a novel of, let's face it, spam. But thanks anyway, if you have read this. BYE but seeeeee you (Tim Minchin, duh, not the social-reject that finished reading this post) in BOURNEMOUTH <3 I hope you're signing after the show...if not ima cry. Right now. Yeah i am . Yep. *cries*. But i'll more likely just be waiting outside for a veery long time. BYE P.S. I just felt like adding a P.S. really.
Harvey nickerson on Tuesday, 30 June 2009
Dear Mr. Tim Minchin, i would like to say that it truly is a pleasure listning to your music, and better to know that you are a polite, learned man, god bless you sir. I, like many others, would wish to one day learn to play your music, and i know that you suggest learning by ear, but i am hard of hearing, so it would be greatly apprciated if you were to publish the sheet music down, or perhaps a tuturial video. your's greatfully
Jase on Monday, 29 June 2009
...mix it with the highly intelligent, witty, grammatically-correct and aesthetically-sublime individuals that constitute the... Very true, kind sir. =D Hopefully I can come to the gig at the Palais this December, although the parents are being hard to get along with. Might get my shirt signed, etc. Will see you then! -Ignorable, Back-door-able Jase.
Kyra on Sunday, 28 June 2009
Hi Tim, You might like to know that we are discussing you on Science a go go, re my post: The Concept of the Whole and Threadism. From what I've seen on You tube, I think you are brilliant BTW
Kim. The Viking on Friday, 26 June 2009
Hi Tim. I really love your songs and your hear:). Have you thought about coming to Norway? You should realle comeback up here and Play some gigs for us up here. If you deside to. Come to Norway, I'll be happy.
Sarah on Friday, 26 June 2009
Hey Tim - I know you get this all the time, but you rule. You're one of my idols (tied with John Cleese and Lano&Woodley) and I love your songs. A boy in my music class sang "Canvas Bags" and "Dark Side" in class, and I thought they were hilarious, and I looked them up. Since then, I've been striving to get as many songs as possible of yours. Almost every night I am on youtube listening to your awesome songs. My mum gets annoyed by the style, but I adore them. Thanks so much for bringing more laughs to my life. If you ever do a concert in Australia (specifically in Victoria) I will try as hard as I possibly can to come see you. xoxo Sazzy
Sinquana Clare on Thursday, 25 June 2009
I don't think we've stopped watching you on youtube in the last 3 weeks ... i swear I hear my flatmates singing '10 foot cock...' while in the..shower.. You're awesomely talented :D Keep up the awesome work. Please come to New Zealand =D
Marty on Wednesday, 24 June 2009
Wow ! ! Just found your video clips linked from Richard Dawkins' website. Thank god I'm an aetheist. Please Tim, come to Stockton, California. I promise you you won't be disappointed. Ok, actually, I can't make that promise. How 'bout the San Francisco area. That would work. Your message and delivery system has given my life new meaning. Bravo!!
Bev on Wednesday, 24 June 2009
And you'll be bringing your genius to San Diego, CA when?!
Ivar Schloz on Tuesday, 23 June 2009
Hey Tim - you are so f**king amazing. Haven't laughed so hard in decades, if ever. I was also impressed that you knew the age of the universe (though as you no doubt know it is increasingly expanding), and your keen insight into all the angst we scientist/artists are saddled with is non-pareil. Please, please, please come to the USA when you can -- there are still some good people here, even though some of us think Perth might be a better place to live...Cheers, Ivar in Asheville NC.
Mark on Tuesday, 23 June 2009
Tim, you are awesome dude, me and my girlfriend think you're the ultimate. We are on a mission to make sure everyone we know knows about you, and then we move onto the people we don't know (beware strangers) lol..... We're looking forward to seeing you in Cardiff in september, we, know you won't disappoint. All the best to you and the family :)
Christa on Tuesday, 23 June 2009
I listen to your stuff every night, it's like a bunch of nice lullabies to lull me to sleep. I hope to see one of your shows soon, or eventually. Maybe you'll perform near where I live *cough Denver,Colorado cough* Keep up with the sweet music/comedy stuff!
Lotty on Monday, 22 June 2009

Dog on Monday, 22 June 2009
"Like a sniper using bollocks for ammunition" - genius! Coming to see you at The Lowry 2nd September, can't wait
Rhiannon on Monday, 22 June 2009
... Aha i was going to start with "Hello Mr Minchin" but that really does sound like an evil genius off a cliche` film. so uhm... no i actually had something good. oh whatever, i love your performances, you're a very talented person and though life's tough, i know you will exceed some of the most entertaining people in history. [e.g kick @$$] i'm not going to mention Elvis because his hair scares me but i hope you know what i mean :] i hope you have a nice day... or night or whatever it happens to be when/if you read this ^-^
Frank on Saturday, 20 June 2009
My day sucked... until listened to Not Perfect. We'll it still sucks, but your song helped. Thanks Tim. I hope I can catch a live show some time. Come to Canada, specifically Toronto!
Marieke on Thursday, 18 June 2009
Can't wait to see a live show someday. So if you ever come off the island (the cold or warm one), please make a small stop in Holland.

Amy on Wednesday, 17 June 2009
Oh, and yes, please let me know where you live, so I can bring you some, er, cookies. Yes, they're definitely cookies. Does this cookie smell of chloroform to you? :P
Amy on Wednesday, 17 June 2009
Monsieur Minchin, Thank you very much for distracting me from revising for my A-levels - it's much appreciated. Really. Also, thank you for helping me mock my ginger friends. It's been great fun :D In other words, you are epic. Please continue being epic. Best wishes (and all that jazz), Amzi
Heather Waterous on Tuesday, 16 June 2009
ok so, I was just watching Just for Laughs and saw you perform 'Inflatable You'. It intrigued me and I just had to google you. You're amazing and a great writer! PS. I love your look.
Jake on Tuesday, 16 June 2009
How about some Western Canada show?
Amy Louise on Monday, 15 June 2009
Hey Tim, Oh mygod I can't believe I am leaving you a comment you may or may not read!! I absolutely love you and you work, You are so incredibly funny and good at playing piano...I wish I could play like that!! If you want cookies Juat drop me a line! I cook so they will be home made lol Amy xxxx
Shhhh on Monday, 15 June 2009
I discovered your music by accident! Now I'm in trouble. I'm forever being told off for singing your songs whilst on duty because not a day goes by that either my husband or I don't play your CDs. So if you hear a copper singing Dark Side and getting told off it's probably me!
Alexandra.S on Sunday, 14 June 2009
Hey Tim, I've been a fan for a while now but since I joined the YouTube community i've discovered so much more of your work & I have to say you're amazing :) I play piano myself but only because I have to & I wish I had as much passion/inspiration/talent as you so I might appreciate the opportunity more than just loathing every minute of it :). I have introduced most of my friends to your songs and we all love you, however my teachers don't quite enjoy our cover of inflatable you in class, they just have no taste :). I'm coming to see you live at parr hall in sept & I've not been this excited since I saw the mighty boosh live around the same time last year, and that's saying something :D. No doubt i'll comment again before the show :). Love your work (& your hair) Alexandra Sproson xx - Stalls : Row U, Seat 17, 4/09/09
Curtis (F'N TONY) on Sunday, 14 June 2009
Hello Mr. Minchin,My name is Curtis,I live in Canton, Ohio U.S.A. and just recently found your songs,poems,and interviews on Youtude and have become addicted to them. Thank you for adding me to your friends list on Myspace. I know it would take alot of time,work,and effort but I would like to see you make another visit to the U.S. and go on tour here. I would definitly come to your show and bring all my frinds along even if I had to buy the tickets myself. You are a brilliant writer and an absolutely amazing pianist,keep up the fantastic work and I will ALWAYS be a fan!!!
Ellie on Friday, 12 June 2009
Dear Tim, Hello there!! My name is Ellie and I absolutely LOVE YOU!! I am booking tickets for your show in Cambridge and MAN am I excited!! Basically I just wanted to say that you and ONLY you (well maybe my teachers a bit but...) helped me through my GCSE's this year, because you make me laugh...actually if I am honest you make me wet myself you are so funny...I know EVERY one of you songs off by heart (I am not a crazy stalker i swear) but have only just come to recognise your particually AMAZING talent because of my friend Maddie...you may know her, she was the one who's mum wouldnt let her go to one of your gigs, but you persuaded her!! We were listening to your music ALL the way to Germany on an exchange in April 09 and well now you are just the most fabulous person ever!! Oh and when we were in Oz, going to a wedding, I saw one of your posters advertising you, and I just knew that would relate to something fab happen in the future...you know when you get that instinct that something is going to happen about this thing soon... well I do =P xxx Don't ever stop writing songs and performing because everybody just loves you too much!! And I just wanted to comment on "White wine in the Sun" because is has made me and my family cry everytime we have heard it. It's a beautiful song with a wonderful meaning and a gorgous melody and accompaniment...you have soooo much talent and I hope you are enjoying your time in England!! See you soon hopefully!! Hope your baby girl is well and happy!! xxx x x x E l l i e x x x
Kate on Friday, 12 June 2009

Liza (wickedlibrarian) on Friday, 12 June 2009
Hi Tim! You made me happy today. So, thanks for that. ~♥
Natalie on Wednesday, 10 June 2009
Hi there, just thought we'd leave a message to say hi and let you know how awesome we think you are! I've introduced my niece to your work over the last few days and she hasn't stopped raving about you since! Take care, and thanks for providing us with so much entertainment - you're very talented and clever and stuff! PS think it's great that you met your wife when you were just 17, I'm 30 and still searching!!!
Holly Lou on Tuesday, 9 June 2009
Leeds Festival?! It's a STRONG RUMOUR that you'll be playing Leeds Festival!! If you did it would be absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!! Please Please Please Please!! Im going to see you in October in Nottingham but its too long to wait!!!!!!!
Twinks on Monday, 8 June 2009
I actually cant deal with how much I love your songs, there superbly work-tastic in that I can't get through the day without them. We recently had a choir of nuts sing Canvas Bags in an international Tim appreciation event. random. but beautiful. Come the the US, get an album of you-tube hits
cailin on Monday, 8 June 2009
Tim, it's great to see all the messages of love people are posting here. I felt like joining in, so here's my attempt, 'tim, if you tell me where you live, i'll post you over my fly swot. Hope the fly leaves you alone in the meantime. Cailin xx'
Genevieve Messenger on Monday, 8 June 2009
Hi Tim, My friends Georgina and Jonathan with Mandy Nolan, booked you for the big Joke up north in Bangalow Oz, recently. I was the red head side stage, worried about the lack of good coffee for you! Anyway I'm a fan now (I was ignorant before) and I just want to say I love "Drowned" I think you can be the rock star you've always dreamed of being now! ps I live in a county town in Vic (near Daylesford) and book extremely humble entertainment, if you ever want to try out new material amongst a bunch of bogans !(Well it's not THAT bad) let me know! Or let your manager know)
Ben on Saturday, 6 June 2009
Can't believe I got to meet you (I was the wide-eyed one with the Nokia 6230i and the friend who couldn't stay), I enjoyed the show loads. You should come back to Carlisle, we love you up here! Hope to see you again soon, Ben.
Lizzie Watt on Saturday, 6 June 2009
Hey Tim! :D! Thanks for such a great night in Carlisle, it was fucking amazing!! You probably don't remember me, I'm Lizzie! :D!! Your work is so amazing, you're so talented!!! Mitsubishi Colt is my favourite song you do, it's hilarious and sweet at the same time! :P!! Anyway, you're soooo cool, keep it up! :D!! Lizzie x :)
Dr Bob on Saturday, 6 June 2009
Yeah don't you know ... 'B' is before 'Q'. Good work. I wanna show 'Birdhouse in your soul' to my wife'

I just hope you make lots of money.
Jaime on Saturday, 6 June 2009
Hey there, I see others have been looking forward to your guest gig on rage. I however, did not know it was on (I have no social life and like to pretend I do by staying up really late on Saturdays)and came across it. I think your choice in songs is quite fascinating and has led me to this website of yours. I just would like to say the frist three songs I totally adore but (and you knew the but was coming)........ David Bowie should have been before Queen ;-), I know this was probably a slight error on your behalf or perhaps ABC's. By the way adore your work (always has me in stitches) when I see it in TV and now I will look on your website and check when you have a peformance on this way next.(may even find some cookies for you).
Cath on Saturday, 6 June 2009
Thank you, thank you, thank you for a fantastic night at the Sands Centre, Carlisle. I laughed my ass off and you were by far the best act on the night. I'd never seen you before, but I'll definitely come and see you again!!

Tegan on Friday, 5 June 2009
Hey, is there anywhere I can grab a list of all your songs? I'v been obsessed with your music for ages now but I keep finding new songs and I don't know whether I've heard them or not yet, and I've missed some old ones. So is there anyway you could put up a song list?
Also not perfect on Thursday, 4 June 2009
