[maisymair]

[najhoant]

""MEEEEEN! I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!""

"They're over there, ya prick!"

[lewars1912]

0:58  "and the virgin that he's in love with is like a brown velvet house."

[DE5176]

you n your mother you get on my nerves!!!!!!!!

[FCWPM]

Ah, the Big Yin . . . 

[Gala3123]

'Away, away' 'no, no I'll stay!' 'away, away' 'no, no, I'll stay' Yes he has, Sarah!!!, xxMhairi

[Gala3123]

I think he's seen Purcell's @Dido and Aenaes', no?

[SarahConnolly63]

@Gala3123

No

[danmartin4]

i think 15 people have a serious sense of humor failure

[martyfan11]

THEY'RE OVER THERE YOU PRICK! Love that line.

[22lovehearts]

hahah, watch this in closed captions!!!

[cormacmccoy]

@22lovehearts that's classic man :D

[jhankri]

I love Billy Connolly!

[AndysOriginalSongs]

Hilarious!

[TheEmmaDarling]

i am an opera singer and everything he says is true!

[TheDavid2222]

"blimp of a woman" LOL

[donniecatalano]

15 people are tone deaf opera singers

[beeniefide]

thumbs up if you, like me, were laughing for five minutes plus after this video ended.

[kriteus3]

@Villazonlover1 I agree with chris, you need to chll, you're missing the point, he doesn't care about being accurate it's only meant to be funny, we know what he means, so what if he made a few minor errors about the characters.

[threestoogesfan2]

Billy Connolly should write an opera or musical. I'd pay a million dollars to see that lol

[masaidan]

@threestoogesfan2 How much would you pay to see his musical "Saddam You're Rocking the Boat?" I'd pay a fortune for that!

[threestoogesfan2]

@masaidan I think that'd be the most successful musical since "Phantom of the Opera" lmao

[Villazonlover1]

Hey, I'm only 13 and I love opera too but don't diss CARMEN!!!!! 8^C

If you watch the best Carmens she isn't big. This only shows he hasn't been to see anything DECENT!!! Don Jose isn't a Grenadier he's a BRIGADIER! Also there's no fort in Carmen and she wants to go not him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ChrisMiller1994]

@Villazonlover1 Take the poker oot yer arse yan arsehole

[ScottieWallace]

@ChrisMiller1994 he's only 13 calm down!

[MissPixieness96]

@Villazonlover1 hi look man if you are gonna dis billy connolly then dont comment. I love billy connolly and im 1 year older than you!! It doesn't matter if he isn't accurate. The whole part of COMEDY is to make people LAUGH.

"men this is what we'll do!"

"There over there ya prick!"

eee billy is number one without a shadow of a doubt

[martin1886]

Haha brilliant.

It's so true what he says about opera, it is very repetitive, but very few could make it sound so hilarious.

"I'm going away now, I'm going away away, over the hill and gone, gone away, over there, down the valley, up the other side. And away over there as far as you can see, or you could see if that hill wasn't in the road"

[Nzmatt]

"They're over there, ya prick!" Hahahaha

[drew1alex]

i actually was at this performance and not long after this part, he just gives up and sees "oh that's it, i've had enough"! and walks off the stage! end of show! i have never laughed so hard in all my life! this was the best show. was in stitches for pretty much 2 and a half hours.

[KatayokoNoTenshi]

I don't think I'd survive if I saw him live. I'd die laughing...

[midgetroxs]

[random12344]

omggg brown velvet house of a woman! he's sooo jokessss.

[monkeybrainmidget]

[KaBOOMKait]

He is Freakin AWESOME (:

He has inspired me to laugh more and tell funny stories myself (:

Whoaa he`s the best :] xo

[irishprice]

He is the best comedian out there, in my oppinion. ! But ive rund out of new stuff to watch and i laugh less and less everytime i watch his stuff :( not as funny after youve already seen it before :(

[JoeLaTurkey]

LOL! "A brown velvet house"

[midgetroxs]

Nice tattoo at very start ( his left arm )

[tigerliiy]

This is how Opera should be lol

[2F4T]

oooooookay i get it lol hillerious

[icebrooze]

hy ,...

seen the man a few times on tv.

he's 100 % stand up comedian nr 1

we've got some stand up comedians in Belgium,... but what he does is f*'n unbelieveable

[backinstrachan]

Latest poll says he is the No. 1 comedian ever, just after watching that you can't really argue.

Fucking hilarious!

[gjglentuohey]

No. 1 standup comedian.

[aimsme]

He's going away, away over there, he's going away...

OKAY, I GET IT!

Lol, so true.

[Boyd89]

He's deliberately trying to drag it on and annoy the audience to hell JUST to get his point of view on opera across.

Simple, yet genius. This guy is beyond irreplacable.

[aimsme]

He really is. Don't worry, I know what he was doing. I myself was shrieking with laughter by the end.

[Boyd89]

Haha I didn't doubt for a minute you didn't get it my friend - I just felt the need to spell it out in sentence to explain it's simple effectiveness.

I doubt anyone is stupid enough to have the intelligence to like the big BC yet not get his humour.

[aimsme]

Good point.

[tigerliiy]

I'm laughing so hard I'm crying&I'm in sitches with laughter

[TescaG]

Oh Gawd, I love this one

My ultimate favourite <3

[theghostofidiotboi]

genius is an understatement. Not trying to make enemies with anyone by the way.

[thickpooxbox360]

see those retards with comments with less than -10  why did they bother wasting there time typin those comments

ide say even they know that billy is the best comidian in the world

[aeonflux67]

-10 what? Where does it show a -10?

[99859854]

the mans the dugs boz,fuckin rajjy man

[weeangelmel]

god i was pissin masel laufin!!! BILLY RULES!!

[harleypiper]

Laughing inside so hard makes me fart .

it all starts with knowing that if I wake up the wife at 1am ,snikering at the fucking pc that only one of two things are happening...

a)must be that billy connelly or

b)I've just finished some of the greatest weed man's ever grown

[Lynchyguy]

The man's a genius!

[SoraTheExplorer]

So funny.

[chenlung1]

I didn't like this show, but some of these minutes are OK :). I like when he squawks at 1:11 :P!

[aeonflux67]

If you dont like this then you must be carbon inert.

[divaboots]

Oh ha ha! Opera is long! Opera singers are fat! Way to make the same goddamn opera jokes as everyone else.

That said, the fake English libretto for Carmen was pretty funny.

[aeonflux67]

These werent the same old jokes. I have seen a lot of comedy and stand up and this is still pretty fresh material. Its uniquely Billy. The stereoptypical opera woman and man are just props for a his humor. They arent the be all and end all of the joke.

[jayboytheplayboy]

Billy's crap!  Carmen rules!

[biggieboy2510]

He says ballet, when he means opera...think about it ^^

[moo99]

This is my favorite Billy Connolly bit! Thanks

[UZC527]

I saw him do this act in Adelaide. Funniest night of my life. Billy, u are a ledgend.

[FantasmaLuna666]

What is it about Billy Connelly that makes even the simplest word known as "fuck" so fucking hilarious?

[456raluck]

Ethan i similary understand your things but guess what ...thats fucking amagazin this video but of course thats not yet so funny for me !!!.

[ethanverity]

He is right. I went to see carmen with school. it repeats and repeats and repeats. the same thing over and over again!!! I love YOU Billy.

[voxxer1]

hahahaha - a brown velvet house. hahahaha!

[TheRhino1987]

men i want to talk to you- there over there ya prick! lmao

[pepsicola1000]

LOL....."And then we'll grab all the stuff and fuck off." LMFAO....

[DeadmanGrobbo]

When I went to see him in Glasgow last year.. he did this sketch for a full 10 minutes at least.. and It was the most i've laughed in my life

[Cella65]

Its just pure honesty! The things (particularly us musicians!) dont dare say. I LOVE YOU BILLY!

[minusabit]

[peanarchist]

goin away, going away, going away...... I GEt IT!!
