A live performance on ABC TVs ‘Sideshow’ of Tim Minchin’s ‘Not Perfect’. Links: www.timminchin.com www.abc.net.au Lyrics: This is my Earth And I live in it It’s one third dirt And two thirds water And it rotates and revolves through space At rather an impressive pace And never even messes up my hair And here’s the really weird thing The force created by its spin Is the force that stops the chaos flooding in This is my Earth And it’s fine It’s where I spend the vast majority of my time It’s …

God, I love him.

lmao at 0:14
Wow… I would’ve loved it even more when he had stopped at the chord at 6:58/6:59 and not add the 7:00/7:01 chord… It would have created a better feeling… But I love this song, it actually has good lyrics imo. And the melodies are great too.
Can you believe hes essentially a self taught pianist..
Yeah what a freak I can’t get that guy out of my head whenever I have this song playing through.
It’s worth it though, because I absolutely love this song
One of my favourite songs ever now. Not just comedy songs.
I’m a little bit in love with Mr.Minchin, shhhh don’t tell anyone.
The irony is how near-perfect this song actually is.
to say he’s a comedian.. he can really write a great song
Musical and lyrical genius. Love the Aussie accent rather than adopting a faux-American typical rock/pop style. Facial expressions are perfect.
my favourite verse is the Brain verse.
“the weirdest thing about a mind, is every answer that you find, is the basis of a brand new cliche.”
it’s just such an amazing song, that park i quoted in particular. it speaks to me. i love it.
where is he comes from, btw
not one of his funniest, but DEFINITELY one of his best.
hes awsome at doing what he does and hes gawjuss
xx love you Tim xxx
This song makes me want to cry.
I fucking love this man so much.

aww. this is an awesome song. i actually went to see tim this night and it was fricking incredible. i met him after the show. he is such a nice guy and loves his fans. LEGEND!!!!
This is just one of those songs that’s an anomoly, the chances of another so touching in my lifetime is ever so slim.
I think anyone can relate to this song, something for everyone and all that jazz.
It affirms that everyone is self conscious, I particularly found myself relating to “I often try to fill it up with wine
And the weirdest thing about it is
I spend so much time hating it
But it never says a bad word about me”
he ended on this on wednesday night and got a standing ovation which was well deserved
this song is simply poetic and heartfelt. brilliantly done.
At newcastle?
if so then you are so right.
that night was amazing.
got a photo with him afterwards.
hes a lovely guy.
proper amazing.
=)
Aw. quite light hearted but serious this one. I am in love with his accent
(nad his body on canvas bags) x

makes you think..
makes you laugh..
makes you sad. Tim Minchin is a Genius.
