Canvas Bags by Tim Minchin

[Adrelinen]

Is it just me, or on the long shots, does he look like SImon Pegg?

[Vamp61616]

Tim looks too sexy in those jackets and that big top and just.... Agh, Tim, Y U SO CUTE?

[hannah171770]

i feel for tim in the first scene :( he's doing his best!! x

[LatevSava]

181 ppl dont wanna let go of plastic :)

[savetheguineaworm]

I give up, I'll get canvas bags. But WTF, a Republican presidential ad? Seriously?!? Are they so fucking clueless about the audience?

[Dandeldragon]

I came here because of Axis of Awesome. So what? I think the video is awesome, and thats what matters, right?

[Laurie2733]

@Laurie2733 Huh. Witness to a tune eh? Is that like listening to a picture? I fail. XD

[Laurie2733]

I normally don't 'like hunt' but screw it......

Like if you don't care who brought you here, you're just glad to be witness to such a fucking awesome tune!! XD

[Sporky86]

Dear Tim,

Congratulations on your everything.

[Sozzie16MJ]

This brought me to the Axis Of Awesome, motherfuckers. Not the other way round. Jeesh. >.>

[JoshLianLegend]

axis of awesome brought me here :)

[postofficeman22]

first heard this in environmental science class ha

[almandinine]

Those blue trousers... I want them! :D

[yurismir1]

I have a mash up of this song and "Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia stuck in my head.

"Take your canvas bags Take your canvas bags Take your canvas bags Lyin' naked on the floor"

(sung like the chorus of "Torn")

I blame Axis of Awesome

[FongioHELS]

this has been stuck in my head for 6 days and now half my class knows it :)

[SeanTAochi1]

i prefer axis of awesome but this is good :)

[TheBonster12]

i agree



[fyonista]

Loved it. Tim is such fun.

[donalwatzon]

That's an unreaaal song

[hannah171770]

181 people have a fear of sock puppets...

[FunkyChicken000]

yes tim, we get it. haha

[Polymeron]

Last time I took mine to the supermarket, its ripped and I had to throw it away :(

I think I used it maybe 8 times since I got it...

[Sozzie16MJ]

Oh my GOODNESS, WHY HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS HOTNESS BEFORE?!?! Tim, you've been hiding. :( This is absolutely brilliant. :')

[blowjoe1995]

[ThingsJakobCanDo]

[BrownBearBarbie]

[newosis1]

@BrownBearBarbie D:

[SadfaceGaming]

@BrownBearBarbie Disgraceful.

[BrownBearBarbie]

@SadfaceGaming Sorryyyy :( I'll just google it then...

[hiya1177]

Stop at 0:54

[ewanmeredith]

very sensible in Wales where you have to pay 5p for plastic bags!

[Anim8Jim]

@ewanmeredith and 5 POUNDS to get into the country anyway!

[Goosla871]

At 1:16 he's like "Where the hell did all those people come from!?!?!?"

[Neall07]

blackout!! fuck yeah

[timothy22597]

@Kycklingstek the signs are pointing at the first pair of girls... he says 'interscholastic' so it includes mil tipple schools, probably some would have rivalries or whatever.

[maddymud]

this is a lot like "I DON'T NEED A BAG" ... check that one out here on the Tube of You ...



[TheUnderratedSection]

Is he trying to tell us something?

[zatan130]

AHAHHAHAA the guitar's not even strung!

[TheOneTheyCallSushi]

I think he's trying to tell us something.

[drummersaysHI]

This is the most legit recycling song I've heard.... Very nice

[WhimsicalAphorist]

Which documentary is this from?

[ZombiefiedGoat]

Guess what ive been singing all day...

[thenashus4]

screw axis of awesome, like if the love of tim minchin brought you here!

[32wallace]

@thenashus4

Why screw them?

[AliceRoseLambert]

@thenashus4 you should thank them, i found my way to tim through them and I've never looked back. i get what u mean, but seriously they did show me the light, which i am ever thankful for!!!

[x1c3x]

@thenashus4 didn't even know about him before that vid so..

[HalfaLimeProductions]

@thenashus4

Well you obviously heard of him from somewhere.. Is it not cool for a band to promote another artist's music anymore? Oh well, guess I should forget all about Tim Minchin, because I'm not a "real fan" or some bullshit like that.

[TweedCapMan]

....why is this so 90's???

[sekirk]

This is not Axis of Awesome. THIS IS TIM FUCKING MINCHIN!!

[mdbillus54]

@sekirk

DERP

[pepsileonard98]

[PowerDJuiceD]

[LostHighwayFilms]

[Mart3888]

[Facehate666]

@MrBarcelon2 I came here because I like Tim Minchin?

[036265]

@Facehate666 fuck yeah

[blackcuve]

@Facehate666 who is tim minchin??lol

[KondimentKid]

@MrBarcelon2 disliked

[JenLeChatNoir]

@MrBarcelon2 tbh, I think the point of this song is that it's just like every other song; just to make it appealing and comical...

[xXMaDEllXx]

@MrBarcelon2 Nope, Tim Minchin brought me here.......

[geogal10]

Just make sure you actually WASH the canvas bags after you use them...

[R4ng3k1ng163]

axis of awesome and thinkin "wtf is this?!?!?!"

[dandyboykb]

@R4ng3k1ng163 LOL i know right 

[ianokamotochannel]

He looks SO different when he isn't wearing eyeliner, it's an amazing transition.

[iAmXxDful]

I think I'm in love <3

[bgccnj]

Axis of awesome +1 This song totally stuck and we bought canvas bags and after a rethink we replaced most of the incandessant bulbs in the house too.

[hyperkiller3]

3:11 is this edge from the wwe?

[kyal987654321]

176 People don't take their canvas bags to the supermarket.

[hazfacelol]

dont worry i already do.

[cormackmoira]

3:10 "Where's my guy liner gone?" lol

[jolluxz]

First Tim Minchin song I ever heard, saw it when it first came out. Been a fan since then!

[depfenn]

Can't pull into the Safeway parking lot now without singing the chorus to this. Thanks Tim.

[kaitiiecam]

hahaha. he's the reason i wear eye liner!!!!!!! 1:16

[MrCliftonCarl]

uncool .... but.. the pope song.. rocks !!

[philphy101]

wtf is a canvas bag

[philphy101]

@philphy101 and anyone who wants to thumbs me down on this because you misunderstood, I just wanna know.

[Sharangir]

@philphy101 A bag made from canvas, a strong fabric. The ones being used at most supermarkets, in the EU at least, to replace the unrecyclable plastic bags.

[andy4an]

@philphy101

Recently (last couple of years), supermarkets have started selling canvas bags near the checkout lines for environmentally conscious customers. You can spend about 50 cents, or $2 for an insulated version that you would bring with you to shop with rather than using disposable plastic bags every time you shop. In some places, like Bethel Alaska, plastic bags are a big problem. But for most of us, it is just another way to reduce and reuse. My market refunds me 5 cents per bag.

[Morrisman1996]

I wish life had an anthem button.

[josejared]

I clicked on the link on the 4chord song while i was singing and i thought it would open a new tab >.>

Damn you youtube

[ElRihno]

I just need to have one of those Anthem buttons!! XD

[Duc0ov]

1:13 commercial!

[ajnode]

I was waiting for it to get good and show me why this song is so popular... But it didn't.

[TwistyBass1]

@ajnode It's much funnier live :) I suggest watching a snippet of this song from the stage show

[Pianistin1756]

I like it!!

[Jasafarina]

Now I wanna hack my local supermarket's music to play this song!!

[clarenewman61]

its supposed to be a bit crap the whole song is a skit its irony

[takeyourcanvasbag]

Market...market...market!

[elvensbane]

This makes me want to throw my plastic bags out the window just to spite this music.

[dudedudedude94]

it's a four chord song LOL

[misato56]

I love this!! <3

My friends and I are obsessed with him and we are making canvas bags with his songs lyrics written on them (:

[Bright1592]

My love of Tim brought me here.

[DarkRedDancer]

Why do I have a feeling that this was an over-successful school project?

[LogicalStatements1]

@DarkRedDancer I have no idea why you do think that to be honest , Tim Minchin is a highly successful comedian . He has filled out arena's , have you?

[DarkRedDancer]

@LogicalStatements1 Hey kid, try not to be to hypocritical k? Cuz im sure you havent filled out an arena either so chill. I was making a joke cuz it looks like something i would do for a school project (if i had a better camera). It's not a thing of disrespect so dont get so defensive :P

[LogicalStatements1]

@DarkRedDancer but i filled out an arena :s

[DarkRedDancer]

@LogicalStatements1 ok cool. that settles 1/2 of what i said. but still, don't get so defensive... lol

[pippinrocks]

I like he doesn't take his industry too seriously!

[popguck]

In the room that has a red button(it`s a cup) and it says loop, it looks like it has been pressed many times. So this means he goes through this everyday? then it says split screen later

[krma33]

This is what douchebags do to music!!!!!!!

[SamYulie95]

FUCK IT! MAKE IT INTERSCHOOLASTIC :D

[MrNickeh]

The ad it played first was for 'Add A Motor To It'. Oh sweet irony.

[GladaTorsken]

NO FKN AXIS OF AWESOME TY

[MrRakun90]

The guys with 4 chords brought me here.

[hugec4]

the loop button changed to a split screen button

[inwoorulz]

he is so stoned :D

[leomack665]

1:16 "what the ... where all this people came from?... oh whatever" hahahaha love Tim

[leviofoley]

why does he end on the 7th rather than the root?

[ClockworkFacility1]

@leviofoley some people just wanna watch the world burn.

[303keeskok1994]

why do the ladies and the guys sound the same xD?

[pigfarts100]

No grand piano? What is this?

[floomification]

as soon as he hit the anthem button i clicked Like. :)

[smitty1937]

Axis of Awesome?

[Facehate666]

@smitty1937 The fuck is that?

[keliss05]

amazing! soooo rock n'roll!!! :D <3

[keliss05]

amazing! soooo rock n'roll!!! :D <3

[ayeleteder2]

so fucking awesome!

[MegaTrixel]

My new favourite song.

[AskellAshwood1997]

the first button he hits says loop, but close up its split screen 0.o



[DhonnyRhock]

Thumbs up if you didn't actually take your canvas bags to the supermarket, and probably will never.

[MineKrypto]

@DhonnyRhock Noob

[MiffyAndHerGuitar]

i wonder what they did with all those plastic bags??

[seraphusoredane]

Came here due to Axis of Awesome, almost left because I had no idea he was a comedian, I thought he was just some hippy Axis was making fun of. Totally unexpected, and hilarious. Glad I stuck around for this, totally worth it.

[MargiesChannel]

Thumbs if if you came here just because you love Tim Minchin, not because of 4 chord songs.

[UncleZipper]

what a faggot

[Chillit67]

@UncleZipper Don't talk about yourself so harshly, I'm sure you can become a better person.

[UncleZipper]

@Chillit67

How childish. To be expected of a TM fan, I suppose. Do you wear as much eyeliner as he does?

[GenericPlaque]

@UncleZipper

Whereas calling a performer you dislike a faggot is infinitely more mature.

[UncleZipper]

@GenericPlaque

I still think he's a pretty enormous faggot though.

[Wablestomp2]

@UncleZipper So?

[UncleZipper]

@Wablestomp2

So... Yeah.

[AliceRoseLambert]

@UncleZipper i wear more eyeliner than he does, does that make me a faggot? if you dont like him then why are you watching and commenting on his videos? and whats wrong with guyliner? it looks good on him, its part of his image. or are you one of those idiots who dont like anyone different from themselves because they are scared of them. Sophie lancaster is loonking down on you and glaring, youre no better than the yobs who killed her! TWAT!!!!

[AliceRoseLambert]

@UncleZipper sorry, what was that? why is my argument invalid? are you sexist as well as homophobic now? did you know homophobia is fear of gays, so yeah guess that tells us a lot about you. But, ya know what, three more and we have a pent-poofter-piano-possey! Me and tim will play the pianos seeing as we have talent. now go drown yourself or something, sexism homophobic prick! Tim Minchin is EVERYTHING!!!!

[UncleZipper]

@AliceRoseLambert

Go stick a dick in your ass, faggot

[AliceRoseLambert]

@UncleZipper sorry, did that not make it clear, IM A GIRL!!!, but, besides that, whats wrong with someone being gay? its not like its bad or anything so...

[DhonnyRhock]

@UncleZipper Agreed, he's quite queer. But you got to admit, this song is an awesome "joke" song

[UncleZipper]

@DhonnyRhock

The first time I watched this I simply assumed he was serious. And I'd have to agree, it is quite a novelty song... But him wearing more eyeliner than a new-age teen girl is less than appealing. Wasn't really hoping to see his chest either.

[Chillit67]

@UncleZipper He wears it because he plays piano and his hands are full, so he needs to display physical emotion. So he uses eye motions etc. I'll stop hating for a different opinion.

[SuperCaptainGinger]

I think Tim is awesome in this video, he gets the message across, is inspiring, and is still funny. your amazing Tim :) Rock on

[grimzombiereaper]

kind of reminds me of a peado lol

[kevmizter5]

i get it, all you hipsters know tim minchin before we was mainstream and got mentioned by axis of awesome. can i enjoy the video now?

[sunshine2698]

tim, i think your awesome, but you better thank axes of awesome

[monkeymanisons]

@sunshine2698 No he shouldnt he made the song, they just mentioned it. they should than him for giving them a piece to put into thier song.

[EragonFiresword]

Axis of Aweome? Good stuff, but Minchin came first, surely...

[ICodeInDreams]

I don't mind the Axis of Awesome comments, because that's what introduced me to the 4 Chords Song half a year ago.

[tokiswartooths]

I want those pants.

[zippacna]

watch 1:07 to 1:12 and notice he reaches out with the right hand and gets it with the left

[choquera]

I'm here because of Tim Minchin...

who is axis of awesome?? never heard of him...

[yumyumfielding]

i dont even know who ''axis of awesome'' are???

i just here because tim minchin is a heart-throb and generally epic :')

[touzaniatw]

Why are you making it seem as if Axis of Awesome doesn't deserve any credit? Tim Minchin may be awesome, but if the reason why you're able to enjoy this music is because Axis Of Awesome introduced you to it, then credit should be given where credit is due. Thank you Axis of Awesome for showing me this :D

[neoman1994]

Ah the diversity in top rated comments... swell.

[Djbiohazard1991]

@roflknife34

Use a Youtube Downloader, just as good quality, and you get what you hear ^^,

[EnterKrooked]

I miss the skimpy thin Tim hes all butch and muscly now xD

[roflknife34]

To be honest. After buying this off iTunes and finding out that it isn't anything like this made me pissed.

[Froschsenki]

That was hilarious. Nice one

[MrEvilakaElmi]

He's wearing shoes? o0

[mybestfrendsafrog]

TIM YOU PERFECT CREATURE

[Goominhosk8]

Haters . look to dislike bar , now to your dick , same size , no ?

[Snabeltasse]

I want an anthem-button!
