Meet Tom Lehrer (born April 9, 1928), the genius American musical satirist, comedian, songwriter and performer. These rare videos from the NRK in Norway are Lehrer only with twelve songs, now watched more than 3.4 million times. The supporting website contains interviews and bios. Lehrer did not contribute to this publishing, but in 2008 he -- and the NRK -- said "OK".
The NRK is here:

Use the latest versions of the songs! Click on the playlists button and then on the first video in the main playlist. You'll get the HQ-version of one of his last major paid appearances, recorded to video in 1967. If played on a standard white YouTube page the HQ video window will become bigger.
The most popular videos are about Wernher von Braun, poisoning pigeons and the Vatican. Enjoy some of Lehrer's wisdom and 'accumulated philosophic or scientific knowledge'. Use another playlist with Lehrer's songs for children and his math songs.
Lehrer is now a retired professor emeritus. Click on the website link to hear him on the radio, read interviews or learn more. Do your shopping here:
