    one. It's not a very good compliment if you're suggesting American Idol. He is BRITISH.

    three. Be quite what? I am quite nice, I am quite good at spelling, I am quite good at identifying excellent music.

  • My favourite part of the video: the drawing round 3:15. XDXDXD

  • @TheStringsAreBroken Those people SUCK.

  • 20 people are twats

  • Why does the Casio part sound so familiar? Has it been used in another video?

  • people get over the fact that he's english!

  • The last part is the most EPIC, and if you don't think so you're a TWAT! XD

  • tom this is amazing :)

    i hope you make more :)

  • WHY HAS THIS NOT GOT MORE VIEWS?!?!?!?

  • Today in Ancient Rome we were learning about Livia and under every photo of her it said "Livia. Cat. ect.." Subsequently I had this song in my head all day.

  • 20 People Have Dead Cats

  • Can't believe I missed this... wow Tom, amazing. I feel like I'm constantly underestimating you, and that's saying something because I already thought you were insanely talented

  • Comment removed

  • My name is Olivia and I've never heard the name 'livia' until I bought this album. (:

  • This is kind of similar to what happened with my parents' separation; they essentially tried to hide all of their fighting, but they didn't do a particularly good job...

  • Hello Tom Milsom! How on Earth did you do this video? It's brilliant. Is there a software to do animation with? Please advise. thank you :-)

  • @ricog Adobe Flash is what I think he's using.

  • OK Tom Milsom fans, I have a plan to get Tom fame. Tell all of your freinds about him, even if you don't think they'll like him. If we all do this we can at least triple his subascribers. Please do this, we could show more people his awesomeness and hopefully get him a lot more popular-er. Thank you for botheriing to read this.

  • did i ever mention that i love this song :)

  • :) Your songs make me happy.

  • @jazzy1muffin really? even this one about a cat dying??

  • @Kathrynhol It's kind of a happy song despite the death of a cat (':

  • This is absolutely my favorite music video. Ever.

  • I LIKE CATS ANDDD I ALSO HAVE A WAY TO HELP TOM MILSOM!!!

    I made a stop motion video (on my channel page) with Indigo on it! :D

    and it's in the top 3 to win a contest!!! :D please vote for it, you would help Tom Milsom too, because it would give him publicity!

    the voting link is on the video! the title is "Fairy Dust" :D

    HUZZAH

  • FUCKING AWESOME!

  • you're amazing, Tom. <3

  • My copy of 'Awkward Ballads for the Easily Pleased' arrived on Monday, and I'll admit I didn't think any of the 'catsongs' could be better than any of the ones I'd heard on YouTube... and yet this one is my favourite. Just shows that you should never underestimate Mr. Milsom's power of awesome. Also that the rest of you should buy the album too.

  • (: fabulous. the music video is incredible and the song is beautiful. I loved it when you mixed the two together... Goodness. Tom, you need to be big.

  • This song has been haunting me for the whole day! I wish I could play the piano... I love to sing the songs that haunt me but the piano is like half of the song and without it's kind of complicated... :D

    I love the witty lyrics! All of your lyrics are so brilliant and I love your skills.

    Greetings, thank you-s, best wishes and a huge hug from Estonia!

    Liina.

  • love the song but i strongly dislike cats :]

  • I like this song, why did you write it?

  • I think this is my favourite of your songs.

    It's sad but very clever...I kind of want to see it done on stage, possibly with Alex Day dressed as a giant cat...

  • OMG. i never knew this song had a video.. but this is EXACTLY how I imagined the song to "play out"

  • You're bizarre in an extremely good way. I'm definitely subscribing. :D

  • you have an interesting way of presenting your videos.

    the parents and your voice embodied in each of them harmonizing is so fitting;

    therefore i gotta say, thanks for bringing yo-self to youtube :)

    i haven't been disappointed (thus far) especially by the video/drawings you upload :D

  • i appreciate great talent.

  • Normaly,when I get a song in my head,when I learn all the words,it goes out.WHY WONT THIS GO OUT? It just HAS to be one of your songs :P <3

  • *tear* Poor Tom.

  • Tom, did your cat die? Is this based on your experience? Do you even have a cat? (or did you?)

  • Did you animate all this yourself ? Or just draw it ? Where did you learn how to animate lip-syncing ? (I won't bother you by asking where you learned to draw, I think that's a bit much.)

  • in a way its kinda sad but i like it has a good message

  • Awesome. When I saw the cat playing on the piano I was like "Keyboard Cat"! But then it was a piano so yeah...

  • this is my favorite video on youtube.

    minus the cat.

  • WOW!!!luv it man

  • It reminds me of arctic monkeys

  • This is actually excellent ! Bravo

  • You are a fantastic mad genius.

  • ahh, tom, u will be so famous one day

  • Isn't he already ?

  • that was cool! xD

  • fantastic song, catchy lyrics and piano. Could sing a tad louder but other than that its perfect :)

  • dude this is awesome

    i like the piano

    u are seriously talented my friend

  • Great video: I've heard this song loads of times, but this is the first time I've understood it !

  • i love this soooong~

  • aww the kid magician kit! ^_^

  • i love this song. how did the cat die tho?

  • it's fictional!

  • No it isn't, it says in the notes that come with the CD that there was an actual cat which belonged to Andy Stanford (who co-wrote all of the catsongs) and the cat actually did die. It doesn't say how it died though.

  • In Catsongs I there's the line "Your little kidneys couldn't handle it no more", which obviously means that the cat had some kind of kidney failure.

  • cat flu

  • this is great

  • i love this!!!

    xX

    <3

  • <3 this song!!! =^-^=

  • Did you do the animations for this?

    Great song Btw. =]

  • Yes, he did do the animations.

  • cute song and vid ... i like cats too heehee =D

  • Brilliant song!

    But I keep thinking it should be titled "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kat".

  • Amazing song

  • Well, that really is the cats meoww; but really shouldn't the dogs get equal time-perhaps with a little more woofer? (K8 ers club) truly scintillating ,,,

  • great song!

  • This song helped to cheer me up the day my cat died.

  • they might be giants style much? XD

  • no matter how down i feel this always cheers me up

  • Great! I enjoy it!

  • I really enjoy the stuff that comes out of your brain, tom.

  • nice!

  • Gosh that is so weird and so adorable and... So weird XD

  • the cat thing is random

  • Not really, seeing as how the song is about a dead cat. . .

  • i love this alot!

    :]

  • im gonna get your album :D

    very soon!!

    his just awesome like potatoes!!

    xXx

  • Since when were potatoes awesome? I've always thought broccoli was awesome-r, because they're all like miniature trees...

  • when i was little my mum used to make me say what a veg or fruit could be and i made a choo choo train lool

  • i always stumble upon this video randomly, love it, and then forget to buy the song itunes.

    that wrong will be righted.

  • This was a big inspiration to the cartoons we're doing now!

  • This simply made me go :D

  • aooow, my cats little kidney's couldn't handle it no more a few years ago.

    :(

  • good but too much base - maybe its youtube...
