Very well done man...bravo. But...you must be kidding that no one would remember this one!! This was the first sone that shocked most of us when we were teens....it is an incredible piece of music for such a dark subject. Pure rock and roll brilliance. Thanks for sharing it with us again...
The original writer of Timothy..to this day denies anything to do with cannibalism. But we know better. He hinted that back when the song was a hit, censorship was not kind.
The writer of Timothy (Rupert Holmes), denies nothing of the sort. Matter of fact, you can buy a dvd (dakotajerrykelly) where interviewed many years ago, he dispells any myths (censorship's unkindness was kind).
Ask keljoy48, he sang the original tune. Thanks Mark for helpin' keep Tim alive.
Thanks for informing people of that, Jonzo. This song was way before my time, but I've got a fondness of songs from this era. People actually began saying that Timothy was a mule, and Robert Holmes said 'No. Timothy was a person. They ate him.'
Reading from the sheet music, sorry. I don't have a turntable, so I can't play my Buoys album (that's right, bought the album). My main purpose here is keeping the song alive. Thank you for watching!

The lyrics of all my videos are wrong. I don't practice... these are songs I remember from my high school guitar-playing years.
