Tiny Tim Sings Bushwhacker

[ih8mw2]

You might be high if....

[Peacelover1523]

i love you tiny i can't wait to meet you in heaven

[tinkerbellys]

I think he's very cute and talented!

[ARIZJOE]

Tiny really could get a lot out of that ukelele.

[Mynamebeandrew]

I'm with ladystardust!

I think Tiny was extremely sexy. God bless you Tiny Tim! Cant wait to meet you in heaven some day

[MrOmbitsme]

i think an alternative rock remake would be amazing,

[clintallen123]

That was brilliant.

[BROOKEoBRUTAL]

@crazymadreaper hes blowing kisses (in thanks) fast

[MisterDrProfPatrick]

he's better than Justin Beiber in over a million ways

[eternalmysterie]

He's attractive. And I'm not joking.

[shrikechan]

@eternalmysterie He definitely was.

[murraymae]

He was quite serious when he sang in his normal voice. He was kidding when using the falsetto. Theres one clip from the carson show when he sings Living In

the Sunlight that is lol funny! But actually, he was nominated for a grammy! :o

[murraymae]

You'd have thought the guys in the back would have at least taken the tiime to learn the darn song before the taping. they didnt play one note or chord right the entire song! I bet tim noticed.

[elliemagic111]

he's. just. awesome. lol

[Harrymfink]

Was this guy influenced by any comedians? Some of his acts are fucking hilarious, but I'm unsure if it is really a joke. Sort of a Andy Kaufman-esque maybe, or just fucking crazy?

[CrazyMadReaper]

Does anyone have any idea why he like taps his mouth before he starts?

[BakaLTD]

@CrazyMadReaper He's blowing kisses to the audiance.

[stntmn7964]

I love this song

[EliZultch]

tim was the first to have metal hair. I could consider this metal back then O>o.

yup..

[billyhay]

where scott weiland got his megaphone idea?

[iHeartinsidious]

hes so sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tvnetidea]

its about the American civil war.

[Hikikomori013]

@tvnetidea I think it's a local Australian song. That's the Aussie term for someone who lives back in the bush.

[AvalancheRomance]

i love him!! he was so talented. & hes so cute! 

[braindead506]

haha......................bush­wacker

[johnny07652]

What I like about Tiny Tim is that he took his music (tin-pan alley) very, very seriously and delivered it in his own unique way, but he also realized that people found it funny and laughed at him - he took it in stride, went along with it, enjoyed that he made people laugh and smile, and in the end he won over many - heck, most of us. What a great guy, it's too bad he passed away. I'm glad he was a Christian.

[SuperCrappyVideos]

@johnny07652 yeah because anyone that doesn't belong to your cult will born in hell

[TheScottKirk]

@SuperCrappyVideos I will be the first to pick a Youtube fight with someone who I think is an arrogant religous nut, but johnny07652 said nothing of that sort.

You have no idea what johnny thinks about non-Christians, and it's arrogant to say otherwise.

[SuperCrappyVideos]

@TheScottKirk He says that hes glad he was a christian when he passed away. Read between the lines (barely) and its pretty obvious that he thinks non christians are going to hell. not saying he thinks theyre bad people, just that he thinks they are going to burn for all eternity

[TheScottKirk]

@SuperCrappyVideos Tiny Tim's beliefs have nothing to do with my criticism of you. All he said was,

" . . . too bad he passed away. I'm glad he was a Chrisitan."

Again: regardless on whether or not Tiny Tim's beliefs, all Johny said was that was glad that a talented performer (which he explained first off) was of the (or at least what he thinks to be) the same belief system.

Johny didn't say, "I'm glad he's not roasting in hell like those . . . " You're just looking for confrontation.

[kidsaresofakinghey]

i feel like he ducks at ukelele :P

[k77jones]

his uke is out of tune.

[StickerMedia]

He's in one hell of a happy trip, for sure.

[TspangTaem]

Tiny Tim was one of the greatest men to ever exsist, a true artist who brought the old back to life.RIP Tiny Tim.

[gamezonic]

we miss you tiny tim, you make people smile

[ThinkingThinable]

I uploaded his song Me and the Man on the Moon if any of you want to check it out.

[suucat]

What an incredible artist.

[DevinTClark]

was there an original version of this song or this it?

[SuzSeptember]

love his hair !

[hamiskoolio6548]

The 5th Beatle. Thumbs up if you agree

[hamiskoolio6548]

Amazing. Enough said.

[speznazporkchop]

WTF ?_?

[mightyspike1eks]

and great tambourine at the end.

[randomdave30]

Aw, Tiny Tim was brilliant

[PantyhoseLos]

That was really good!

[iVenge]

I detest the canned laughter these TV idiots added to this track. This was a totally serious performance, and no one understood his true talent. He was definitely autistic, and a musical genius with an encyclopaedic understanding of the music of this era. Brilliant.

[EndlessNot1]

@iVenge Autistic?!

[curlytoes79]

Good luck trying to find this song on Google. Tiny Tim brought songs to life that otherwise existed only on ancient phonograph records and in sheet music. Without him, many of these songs would still be lost.

[Wassenhoven420]

@curlytoes79 Thats very interesting. You have helped me find new respect for this man, and I will learn more about him. I used to think of him as a weird trick pony type guy, obviously never actually looking into him. 

[SneeSnail]

i am in love with this man's music

[bpwonderkid]

Wow! I got goosebumps when he started singing through the megaphone.

Beautiful.

[Griwhoolda]

I've been looking around at the Tiny Tim videos, and I have to say that thisone is my favorite.

[JadeTomZ]

this guy was a throw-back to another time.

he lived musically in the past and he was a performer dont ever doubt that.

i saw him late in his career when he was touring with a small circus that i took my neice and nephew to.

does he appear weird?

i guess he does.

but he did love music and lived that way.

how many people can say the same?

[Griwhoolda]

Excellent.

[McJasper9999]

RIP Tiny Tim

[zachbdude]

tiny tim, why are you so ugly?

[JoshuaFrenchh]

@zachbdude Tiny Tim is a sexy bitch.

[tinpanalley67]

@zachbdude WHO says Tiny Tim was ugly?

[Demoncurse123]

Bushwacker, huh huh huh!

[blackthornsos]

XD I love him ^-^ (and I bet I'm the youngest person to ever watch this)

[LesnarNextBigThingF5]

@blackthornsos how old are you

[blackthornsos]

@LesnarNextBigThingF5 ... 15...

[LesnarNextBigThingF5]

@blackthornsos im 13

[EPICthemost]

@blackthornsos nah... im 12 and know everyone of his songs O_O

[hateretah]

@EPICthemost lol xD

[EPICthemost]

@hateretah :)

[LesnarNextBigThingF5]

i noticed before he starts he does that thing with his ukelele like in living in the sunlight

[equinoxranch]

sounds a lot better than most of the shit these days................

[Smidthmador]

Im only 21, so you know what goes through my mind when he says Bushwhacker...hehehe

Bushwhacker, dear friend of mine, you will find that i am a bushwhacker too... tehehe

I luv TT... SO sad he had to end up the way he did...

[The7Osmonds]

how About This? Ok? If You Don't Like It LEAVE! We Don't Need You Here!

[melaniebabe321]

WOW

[TheMidgetkid]

Weird guy that looks like my sister

[angelbelow182]

I love this song. He was such a talented d00d.

[geldedus]

there's nothing to laught about in this video, he is totally serious about reviving an old song

[burgess0513]

@geldedus Oh, get over it. He's ridiculous and completely bizarre. That's what's funny. lol

[iamspeaker]

I dont understand why there are people laughing because he seems to be pretty serious about it.....

[GrilloJ123]

because they aren't laughing at him they are laughing with him.

[MrLeglamp]

I wonder how many bushes he's whacked in his day?

[x5n4p3]

only one.

he was more into men.

[wakawakacody]

i think hes gay

[IpostJesus]

when was this made?

[yerboyfloyd]

I'm just trying to figure out if he looks more like Alice Cooper or Weird Al Yankovic...

[spidermode]

@yerboyfloyd

i've concluded that he's a mix between russell brand and marilyn manson.

[ABgarden]

Look at hit older pictures he reminds me of The Penguin from Batman =O Tiny your my hero!=D

also...Tiny Tim isn't gay...

[miodidd]

muy bueno

[scottycanes]

What are the chords for this? I wanna play this randomly to my friends if things ever get quiet to just. . . make things. . . funny(?). Ah, it'll be hilarous I think.

[chettmansberger]

A very well loved and respected man, with a special and unique talent.

Different, yes... but then think about it: He wanted only to entertain people and make them smile (YOU have, admit it :> )

He's done this for millions. God Bless Tiny Tim!

[Thorum13]

Brilliant!!

[beamingatyou]

You don't see that kind of talent anymore. He was a great guy, and such a dreamboat.

[trialsmasta357]

@beamingatyou are you high?!?!?!?!

[BlackToothHaze]

have you ever noticed that he plays the acoustic guitar right handed and the uk left handed?  ambidextrous

[ironbuttermilk]

Wow! Yeah just caught that! Mind blowing!

[jackspinoza]

@BlackToothHaze wow, I never did! How did I miss that, cheers.

[smartbomb05]

@BlackToothHaze That is interesting! I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous :) haha!

[PopcornRingo]

Holy maloney, Tiny Tim invented tecno at 1:41

He is amesome

[macdaddy0091]

lyrics plisss plisss

[Legopancake]

love that voice !

[macdaddy0091]

good

[Somedorkontheweb]

I love this video. Always heard great things about him. Huge fan now

[geofbrit59]

He was a real character! Very talented and good showman. There was a time in the 60's when 1920's style/design became popular. 'Bonnie & Clyde' movie, 'Winchester Cathedral' song, & of corse Tiny Tim, to name a few.

[pazzensutra]

If you like Tiny Tim, try to find the video of him singing old tin pan alley songs on the Uncle Floyd show. It's great.

[RP1117]

My hero, I actually never heard of him until I started playing ukulele and singing at an Irish pub and ever since I haven't been able to escape the tiny tim remarks! He lives on in my 1929 martin style 2 uke :)

[shaitan9]

You know , Tiny Tim was a little before my time and all I was told about him was his wedding on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and of course " Tip Toe Trough the Tulips" , I was sold short , for some reason I decided to look him up today and this guy was a good showman ! I wish more Americans were more into him during his peak in the 60's but I believe most Americans were peaking on LSD back then. Damn Hippies !

[pinkstarburst95]

Tiny Tim?

[GageHolmes138]

im his biggest fan

[lilraye]

This is just amazing

[vicpur]

ART!!!

This guy is a genious!! He is imitating how they wo0uld of sounded on released.

78rpm.

Ive seen Tom Waites using a mega phone like this 35years l;ater!!!

TT was way before his time.

[codfish6677]

Man he has crazy vibrato in his voice. It almost sounds unnatural.

[LeiaXTheDinosaur]

TINY TIM! :D

[TacoChild]

He plays guitar right-handed and uke lefty? That's awesome!

[britineyo]

never noticed that, talented!

[LunaVorax]

Do anyone know were I can find the lyrics and the music sheet of that ?

[chubakalabra]

bushwaker?

i can think of many bad puns and joke for that title but good song overall really impressive

[hateretah]

isent a bushwaker a guy that would kill for fun in the arme

[idntexst]

really

[acerb45666555]

if this was 1914 this is what you would be hearin on youre phonograph! everyone sang like this!! except the big opera stars.

[BELACSAMOHT]

actually probably the depression era

[TobeytheRichardson]

It is beautiful.

[nitrork]

seriously, there is no way anyone can think this is good.

[jdbedient]

lol

[beni1011]

i love tiny tim!

[tHeDirTyJoHnSon]

Wow,,,,has anyone noticed that Tim was an ambidextrous musician,, meaning he could play both left/right handed,,,i have a new found respect for this man.

[tHeDirTyJoHnSon]

Check out Snake Gully Swagger,, which is the previous clip to this one,,

He true'ly was a talented but misunderstood musician, who never really got the respect that he deserved,

Rest in Peace Tiny Tim,,

[idonotknowme]

he was ahead of his time, shit sucks

[liky96]

he played this when he was onld he dosent sound like before i think he sounded better when he was younger

[neobludragon]

you're retarded he never did any drugs

[Ealasaid17]

This guy should have got a job at Disney :) He would make a good cartoon voice

[tess35]

/ = I Think He Died ..

[PhantomLord]

I've whacked many bushes in my day.

[PineappleSex69]

couldnt say it any better. =)

[acerb45666555]

hehe! *****

[zmitregnistegra]

fuck you

[FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKK]

fuck your mother

[lazykidzproductionz]

Hahahaa!!!!

[LifeJuice90]

He looks like Alice Cooper does now lol

[madcapromanian]

I actually like Tiny's 1920's sound.

[miketodd67]

I'm sure he whacked a bush or two in his day.

[cannoncam]

is he still alive???? (reply, dont just type plz)

[JoePennDrums]

Tiny Tim died in 1996 - on stage like he wanted.

-Joe Penn-

[AlexGeh]

does anyone have the lyrics?

[xlrAcer5]

google 'em

[AlexGeh]

I tried, but there's nothing to find

[PopeInnocentXIV]

This is just the chorus; there is a verse too. This fox-trot was written by Rawdon Blandford in 1929.

Bushwhacker, bushwhacker /

Dear pal of mine /

Jogging along the trail together /

Cheerful in fair or stormy weather /

Friends ever /

I'll never be naught but true /

Rain or shine, pal of mine /

Till the last hill we climb /

You will find I'm a bushwhacker too.

[AlexGeh]

wow, thx so much!

[motorwawt]

where the hell did you find that at?

[racheandsash]

his vioce is funny rofl

[deathcomesx]

That is NOT an insult, I'm just saying.

[deathcomesx]

To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if Weird Al took a bit of inspiration from Tiny Tim. In a sense it isn't a long step from what Tiny Tim did to straight up parodies.

[Erosmonkey]

A friend of mine was just commenting on the similarity between TT and Weird Al as well. I would say that Weird Al definitely took a good bit of inspiration from Tiny. As far as Alice Cooper, yep. How about Alice starring in "The Tiny Tim Story"?

[nitramtenab]

he was on one of the beatles xmas flexie discs sent out by the beatles fan club he sang nowhere man

[THRESHOLDmusic]

im dying laughing this guy is a joke! hahah

umm bushwhacker?<isnt that kinda dirty?

[Xtreemeguy]

Ummm I just noticed something here, people. Weird Al Jancovic looks just like Tiny Tim.

[accordionsfrommars]

Yankovic.

[porie101]

zappa too!

[RedScare00]

dont forget alice cooper!

[kyle6606]

tiny tim was a joke, he was a performer, he wanted to make people happy, and he did, he always makes me happy when i'm stressed out, it's just rediculous music and you can't help but smile, long live the king!!

[Nikolaii257]

Tiny Tim could pull off a good joke, yes. He did make people happy and I am personally impressed with his vocal range. He could also sing "This is All I Ask" in a deep register. Comedy was one of his gimmiks to help accentuate his style. Tiny also successfully preserved the songs from the American past as a musical archivist. Those songs might have been forgotten if it wasn't for him and I think that the musical world owes him some gratitude for the effort.

[sSurrenderDorothy]

He played banjo with his feet. I won't tell you what he played the accordian with.

[bushwhack93]

lmfao

[Weldhelmet]

Wow, Did I just see what I thought I saw?

I'm asuming that this is the song performed after "Gully Swagger", also here on YouTube. In that song he plays the guitar RIGHT handed. He then grabs the Uke and plays it LEFT Handed??!

Wow,. just, wow. Amazing talent.
