I saw Tim live a few months ago on the "Back" tour, and they did this in memoriam to his tour manager. Bawled my eyes out then, and just bawled them out again listening to Missy Higgins version.
Also, if you want the same emotional roller-coaster from TV that you get from Tim's live shows - "Upright" is just amazing. Watch it now.
Upright is one of the best things I’ve seen in a long time
jakzilla95 how do you go about watching it??? I’m in the U.S.
Im in the UK and I watched it on Now Tv. Although I’m not sure if that’s available in the US. Hope that’s helpful
Michael Ford Tim announced on insta a couple of days ago about it coming to the USA if you haven’t seen it yet
Just binge watched Upright on CBC Gem, all in one sitting. It's so very good!
Oh man, I didn't realise Tim wrote it! I literally stumbled across it at 3am today and immediately fell hell over heels, bought it straight away on iTunes. Guess I'm going to have to figure out how to get the series into my eyeballs next...
Two people I adore working together. Good things sometimes happen.
I finally watched Upright, and its absolutely brilliant...I lost my mom several years ago to Cancer, and drove across the US to say goodbye, this series and especially this song hold a special place in my heart now. Thank you for writing this Tim.
TIM MINCHIN Your voice is what we love to hear. Missy Higgins was also amazing and SOO beautiful too.
Two lovely, intriguing and gifted people talking about things that make them tick. I'm all ears.
Exactly! Couldn't have put it better.
These two incredibly talented Australians make me so proud. Just being normal about the fabulous art they produce.
Your voice is SO soothing! I could listen to it all day... So I certainly prefer your version, Tim!
I'm that used to seeing Tim with make up that he kinda looks odd without it, not in a bad way. It's a bit like when I see a woman I like without make up and think, damn, she's so beautiful why does she have to hide it with "slap". Oh, and Missy is gorgeous too. 😊
What a treat it would have been to be present when Tim first played Carry You for Missy.
Such talented, special people, and such a privilege to have seen and heard their work.
AAAAAAA a Tim Minchin video!!! oh, it's a conversation... ok.
what else was it going to be when it says "talk about"?
You're right. Great argument. I must be a fuckwit.
Great backstory. Video magnetic collaboration.
Two amazing artists at the top of their game producing a masterpiece. Thank you xox
Such a great song in a fantastic show.
Upright is a very special piece for me. I caught it on a whim following the death of my father. So thank you. I’ve just rewatched both seasons for a 3rd time. 🫶🏻
Upright was Excellent!!!
i want to download tims recording of this song!!!!!
Sing it Tim!
The song's there, on her channel. I saw it earlier.
Interesting to hear Missy say she felt it was about longing, it always felt to me like it was about loss. Trying to put a better perspective on particularly bereavement, the idea that being gone isn't really all there is to it, about the memory of that person living on with you. Maybe that's through the lens of Upright (which is outstanding) with Meg talking to her brother in the car, but that's how it felt to me.
do you not long for those you lost? could be one in the same
Initially I felt it was about loss too. The loss of the relationship he had with his brother and then the loss of his love with the sister in law. But by the time I got to the end of the series I felt like it was actually a song about longing to be in Billies life and longing to have those moments with her and he felt he never would or could
Oh my a new Tim minchin video
Great song. It was a great series - which unfortunately I had to watch on some bootleg website somewhere in the dark corner of the web. Amazon should definitely pick it up. I'd really enjoy a sequel, and there are several directions they could go with this one.
love the B&W look of this vid. It always enhances pics vids
loved Upright soooo much. Binged it all in one sitting. Please tell me it's gonna be released on blu-ray
And any chance of a second series somehow? or another series, different story but still you & Milly?
Loved this song before I saw upright and love it more now I binged watched the entire series in one night. I actually think there is four people it could be about but I think by the end I felt like it was Billie’s song which just made it even sadder/more touching? Anyway, if you haven’t seen it I highly recommend, stick with it past the first ep it’s really beautifully made. Tim is fantastic, and the girl who plays meg is ensorcelling
I think it's for Billie too.
What a great feeling , to be just one of the forgotten on route to his meteoric rise ?
I wish I could watch upright 😢not all of us have pay tv
Me too...I have Netflix but not FOXTEL
Carol Carol I did the ten day free trial and watched it all in one night and then cancelled lol
You must have seen it by now, yes?
Good Lord she's pretty
In the context of the show, this song can only have been written by Lucky about Suze, right?
I thought it was a song not a conversation😂😂😂💔
yeah. I can see where "talk about" threw you for a loop
Dear God! You thought this was worthy of video release to the world?? Give us a break!
Get out of your bubble and get a sense of the real world for a while!
Unbelievable! Would rather watch paint dry.
Plenty of videos of that available. Go watch that.
Tim, you are mistaken when you talk about you not being a vocalist. There is a connection that I felt in Upright when you performed this that I felt was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard. I literally wept like a baby. Maybe I just really felt for the camel? Who
Knows.
I know, right? It's almost as boring as watching some random guy declare on a video that he's "a proud and happy atheist".
Tim is a genius beloved by millions of people. Try purchasing a ticket to one of his shows, no matter how large the venue. It's next to impossible. Those of us who love Tim's intelligence, humor, introspection, creativity, and humanity ADORE videos like this one. It's fine if you don't, but please don't waste your time or ours commenting on Tim Minchin videos in the future.
