Probably the cleverest lyricist ever so funny as well ,I have not been to a concert in a longtime but I would love to go to one of his .and on top of that he sneaks in those messages well done Tim good on yer mate for making a lot of peole laugh and think
My girlfriend hates this song when i sing it to her lol. The stupid thing that women don't seem to get about this song is that just because it's a song where a man is telling his woman the truth about love, that truth works exactly the same way in reverse!
aka my girlfriend, if not meeting me could be with a richer, more handsome, wider chested, more intelligent, easier to get along with man whos better in bed than me lol.
@rock1rock2rock samee, like when i say i like white wine in the sun and (some) people then presume that i must be a teen mum, or if i say i like woody allen jesus and they presume i must be an athiest. tim is just amazing and all his song are brilliant!!!!!! MAS every time
@theAwsomBeaverrr He says that if he turns up with shoes on, it would be the same as if the audience were naked... (He said it in some random interview, can be found on youtube, can't remember what to search for though!)
@bullet2chokeupon yes, but i'm talking about this video, not the rest, only other person it might be is his ex girlfriend, Jackie. Otherwise if you disliked it for no reason, you are a retard.
@AdamMorrow10 Lol. I do not dislike stuff, so i did not dislike your comment. All i did was say how awesome i think Tim is, and that watching more of him improves your life. His wife is completely fine with his jokes. Besides, this is a song about maths, not love.
@AdamMorrow10 - Naw, as he mentioned in another bit, his wife shares his sense of humour.
Besides the song actually is very sweet towards her, he does after all say that her love is one in a million, and that she is the only love of his life - the point of the song is to point out: that finding love, is mathematically probable.
ROTGLMAO , I love how he's saying all the things that married people think , but never say .

It's interesting that mostly men react to the Gaussian function joke (2:35). Compare the reaction to all other laughs during this song.

@Paladin1983PL
I think its because the 'bell curve' is meant in one OR both of two ways
1: the mathmatical meaning
2: the 'bell shape' women have and don't want
so it sounds like hes talking about maths and/or the womans figure, which women probably take as sexist (less female laugh + more men laugh)
jeremark90 1 month ago
@jeremark90 You may be right. It never occurred to me that someone can understand "bell curve" as a shape of a body :)
