Wow. This guy is really deep.
Yeah, I noticed that. He's really deep, eh?
Yeah that’s what he does
@@TriplePalindromous he's deep as bro
@@TriplePalindromous wait i literally read this as he said it
@beebeegum I am so proud of this community.
"Oh you're off beat, wicked" *Crowd proceeds to STOP clapping*
Now that's a whole other level of charisma.
When that happen? Lol
@@brianthomason5022 Around 4:48
That was amazing in a funny way
@@brianthomason5022 4:35 ish
Funny thing is that they had almost caught up to him again by that point
"Formulate plan to stop audience clapping" is one of the truest musical notations I've ever heard.
Oh I see it now. Woa! Too cool.
Must suck to be revered
Along with "Almost lose crowd with jazzy chords" and "win them back with rapid blues lick." Yippee!
And they listened and stopped 😂😂😂
I saw a video recently where someone pointed out Harry Connick Jr. dealing with the crowd clapping on the wrong beat by adding an extra beat to one measure. Put them right back on beat without them even realizing it.
"Oh, you're off beat, wicked." audience is then shamed into not clapping. This man is my hero.
but his audience also knew him well enough to start clapping again - and got it right 😄
They clapped again later, this time on beat, they learned their mistakes 😂😂
@@olimar243no he adjusted
@@PianoDiary85listen closely he adjusted to them really neatly
This does only work with an audience above a certain level of integrity. Unfortunately some people don't realise that they: clap off-beat, standing in the way, being a nuisance to others, .... Luckily I think those people who enjoy Tim Minchin are usually above that level :) Tim in general has a quite high standard when it comes to his lyrics, music, topics and jokes. That's why he's such an amazing artist.
in him, are, a middle-aged comic from the 90s, a rock star from the 70s, a Pop Idol from the 2000's, and a magician from the 80s.
and all of them are in a constant battle.
You think this one is bonkers, go watch his “Angry (Feet)”. It’s more spoken-word, nothing to transcribe musically, but it’s fantastic 😆
And he also writes musicals. Good luck figuring out where that fits in.
oh what i'd do to have all of the above mentioned in me at the same time,fighting. maybe that would mean i'm deep as well
@@atharvapawarr Deep as, bro 😆
Also a musical satirist from the 1950s - he's heavily influenced by Tom Lehrer.
What's the most impressive thing is that he's not had any formal training on the piano. He had a few lessons when he was a kid but is mostly self taught. He describes himself as a "hack pianist" which basically he admits not really knowing anything formally but just picking it up as he goes along. There's a lot of discussion in the music community whether he's actually any 'good' at piano, but I think he's absolutely incredible.
Surprises me that there’s a discussion about this.
@@pjbpiano I know! Shocked me too when I googled his "hack pianist" quote and there's loads of reddit threads basically saying he's not any good at piano because he's not classically trained and that he's a glorified Bill Bailey 😂
@@jt2284 I find it extremely stupid that there are people who think skills must be trained with the help of a professional xD People should just accept his skill without being jealous
There are people whose brains/being are just built for doing certain things - not the way others think it should be done or would rather have them do it. They just know how *they* ought to do it - it's as if they're doing what the Universe somehow means for them to be doing. It's rare, and it's awe-inspiring to experience. Enjoy it where you come across it.
@@RecOgMission isn’t that the working man’s definition of genius?
The best thing about the solo is that it's too long. It starts getting uncomfortable, which makes it funny. (And then he releases the tension by going off in another direction, or by doing the Für Elise joke. It's just great!)
Maybe you heard it... he quotes Flight of the Bumblebee a little, before he plays part of Fur Elise
yep, that's the point. He's making jokes with the piano. Like when family guy does a cut scene that goes epically long as an extended joke.
@@julianbrelsford happy someone else noticed, was wondering if he did that on purpose
I love how not only he told the audience off for clapping off-beat, but the second time it happened at 7:52 he just went "fuck it they're the tempo lead now".
You can actually hear the beat adjusting :'D
Oh yeah, I didn’t hear him adjusting until I saw this comment. He did an amazing job of easing into their tempo
If you can’t beat ‘em, join em! 😂
@@clairethompson5549haha !! :) :)
Man played for thirteen minutes and held my complete interest the whole time this man is wicked at piano
I didn't even realize it was close to that long what 😭
and this is the final song to an almost 3-hour long show, insane
for real it's insane
Tim Minchin is an Australian treasure. One of the funniest most intelligent comedians I have ever had the pleasure to see.
He's pretty deep too
This is the definition of "never let em know your next move"
@@DrawThatRedstone I'm sorry I hurt you
@@DrawThatRedstone he said he's sorry

Lmao
@@DrawThatRedstone Troll Alert!!!!!!!
Watching the note sheet got me thinking "This dude up here straight playing algebra with his goddamn fingers wtf?!?!"
Not sure I've ever felt an angst like when the intro was closing and I saw "YIP-PEE" coming in hot on the sheet music
Absolutely brilliant pianist and comedian.
Whaaa...I felt pity for his tragic existence but was amazed that he took up piano as a hobby.
He wasn't being sincere?
I guess I'm not a good judge of people.
Agree 100% I can't unsee him in Californication. Absolutely hilarious!
whats his name?
@@lux5164 tim minchin
Agree - a shame he really stopped doing comedy ...
I’ve never seen this gentleman before, he seems like one of those “geniuses but doesn’t know it and doesn’t really care”. I love it. Thank you for letting us see it written out.
He knows it, haha. He’s absolutely incredible. He wrote Matilda: The Musical in recent years as well, and has written some gorgeous “serious” songs as well as his comedic output. He’s worked incredibly hard from a young age to get to where he is now.
Oh, he knows it alright
@@SeanTheDiscoNinja yes, that’s coming out soon. Matilda the Musical. The music is the best!
Do yourself a favour and listen to his other songs ;) Both comedic and serious, always brilliant.
Prejudice is the best thing you’ll ever hear haha
He sometimes looks like he is genuinely confused about what he is doing
5:09 "almost lose crowd with spicy jazz chords" 😂
you know you're deep when you keep changing the time signature mid song to confuse the audience clapping to the beat
He may be a goof but writing all that in that many different time signatures and keys but making it a cohesive song is incredible talent, he's a music nerd and just showing off what's possible, I love it
Probably because he’s playing by ear and feel, not time.
@@TheUKNutterdefinitely possible
Tim Minchin is hilarious on his own, but the annotations you add to the transcript are like the icing on top, love it!
If Tim hasn't seen this, he needs to
Yippee!
Give credit to Tony Williams he transcribed the piece
How else would you follow along with what he's doing??? lol
(Overcome by emotion)
I’d never really thought about this… but beyond actually writing this song… it’s amazing Tim was able to discover that it works. He puts so much into this performance, it’s hard to imagine what performing this live for the first time would have been like. What if the audience found it tedious? It’s a big commitment
I suspect he would test out material at small comedy clubs similar to most stand-up comics, but he was extra fuckin' weird and hard to book. I remember reading somewhere he said he spent a long time being viewed as a fairly mediocre/middling weirdo performer on the circuit.
Tim wrote this song many many years before he ever started to make it as a comedian
I'm sure the performance grew based on what worked in shows. It's actually quite flexible. This is the kind of piece where you can swap parts in and out based on audience response.
Trying a new piece in a small venue actually has relatively low risk. Worst case scenario a few people walk out. But even the weirdest artists have people they can bounce their work off of before they perform it to the public, and you can tweak and change the material over multiple times performing it until it works for you and the audience
By the way if you’re an artist that takes risks, there are going to be audiences that don’t like you. That’s fine, you’ll live and an audience finding you tedious will not ruin your career immediately 😁
For 13 minutes he never once made you feel like it was dragging on. A true performer who knows how to feel the room, adjust, and keep entertaining. Incredible.
Wow I don’t understand how you transcribed parts of it. You both are really admirable artists
Actually tony williams transcribed it, check the description
@@steelers3321 still insane that someone managed to transcribe it though
Thanks guys, I did my best :) I have to admit, I had to guess at times when he was just playing random notes 😅
@@tonywilliamspiano #Hero
@@tonywilliamspiano Dude, the fact you were able to transcribe this piece at any level is amazing!
6:16. This dude just made the audience laugh with a piano solo. Damn.
Plus his facial expressions to be fair
Check out Guthrie Govan, for more comical solos!
only the face expression
Watched this during major depressive episode. Have been struggling with the ideations all day. it's as bad as you'd imagine clinical depression is. But honestly, feeling quite a bit better now. Hope it lasts.
Hang in there! 💪
I pray youre doing okay ❤️🔥
Depression suuuuuuuuuucks. Hang in there mate.
Hope you’re having a good day fam
Every time it comes back watch again. You got this.
Jesus christ this is a whole piano concerto with more or less the sonata form and a rock opera smashed together.
I can't believe how captivating this was: I initially wanted to switch to another video in the beginning and kept telling myself "Just a few more seconds." And now I suddenly watched the whole thing.
Same 😂
Me too lol
👍
my adhd rarely allows me to casually stay tuned in to anything that long tbh
only watch Tim for a few seconds? Bahaha. Nice try.
Darkside! about time that solo got transcripted, did not expect the whole song
Great work as always!
He did the solo 2 months ago
Yo can we talk about his vocal range damn dude
For real that high falsetto was insane
10:05 explains it all
LITERALLY WTF BRO??? ITS WILD DUDE I CAN BARELY EVEN MAKE IT AN OCTAVE ABOVE MY NORMAL RANGE BEFORE IT STARTS TO SOUND LIKE IM CHOKING TO DEATH ☠️☠️☠️
Have you heard the song where he purposely sings in a different key than what he's playing? Dude is hugely talented.
I’ve seen many of Tim’s sillier songs and somehow never saw this. His skills as a pianist and even as a vocalist are insane. I had no idea he could play this well, let alone write some of the most heartbreakingly beautiful piano parts I’ve ever heard as were in the beginning of this song.
It's the random E Major chord at the end that absolutely seals this as a masterwork in composition and comedy for me. 👏👏👏
Not sure why "random"? :) A resolution as orthodox as it gets.
Before that, the spicy ones @ "very hard to hear over audience cheering" are wicked though.
he even snuck a C in with the E major chord too. the sly bastard.
I think he meant how it sounded somewhat underwhelming and out of place I thought the same thing. It felt like he just tapped the keys instead of finishing it with a flourish.
@@jeremyadlermusic yup. It's like, he's going so hard and then.... *plink* 🤣🤣🤣
Also he said it was in Cminor earlier (cheeky at least to end offkey if it's not uncommon)
It's hard to see the separation between his humor and pain. But that seems to be a mark of a lot of really good artists.
True Art is the soul exploding out. There're no words but you know when you have felt for a moment what their soul was feeling.
Try the song "Hi Ren" by the artist Ren.
@@herculesmclovin Damn that's a good phrase
Like Robin Williams
@@herculesmclovin Hello, fellow Ren fan!
Tim actually considers himself really lucky and has had a very privileged life. His "pain" is mostly just him mocking grunge music. He is also an actor and he is bringing all his skills into one performance. That's why he has to settle for something trivial like "daddy never came to my ball games" to draw his emotion from. He played sports multiple times a week and his dad is a surgeon. Lol. If you want some context for this performance, watch him perform Rock and Roll Nerd.
A parody of flight of the bumble bee into a parody of Beethoven is wild but genius
Never thought i’d see “Overcome with emotion” on a transcription… brilliant work!
I love how his Dark Side is Eddie Vedder
With some Michael Stipe and Kurt Cobain thrown in, too.
Facts😅
Elton Vedder
6:52 - I like how in "When the audience claps off beat" this said "hold sustenuto pedal for longer than it took to make this transcription", but in the new video it just says "... for really long time".
Transcribing this song finally lasted longer than the sustain pedal
Had the pleasure of meeting Tim Minchin toward the end of last year at an afterparty of an opera I was in. After some heavy cajoling from my colleague who happens to be a relative of his, he got on the piano and we all had a bit of a jam. People would just start singing jazz standards and the like and he would immediately start playing/singing and improvising on the pieces. I started in with some Moondance and he improved and scatted along and it was just fun as hell. Having been a fan of his for over a decade, it was definitely a wonderful moment for me.
my god I am jealous.
I took classical music lessons for 8 years, starting at age 7. He blows me away!! I read music and this confused the sh*t out of me!! Technical, awesome and incredible! I bow to your talents...sir.
And yet he is lauded as a hack by classically trained pianists just because Tim himself is not classically trained and doesn't read music
@@jackwhitbread4583 I started lessons because I could play a song I heard one note at a time. So my mom enrolled me. I wish she didn't because I can't jam, only read music to play.
@@Raittway can always start :))
Minchin has that thing where he lures me in by being funny and witty and all that jazz, just long enough to make me forget he can absolutely melt faces whenever he feels like it. Dude's a fucking wizard.
'Formulate plan to stop audience clapping.' Good lord, that's deep. Really, if you're a pianist (or any other musician), you get that. If you're not, you'll have to imagine how annoying it is. I like this dude.
Luckily I throw the audience off by not having a consistent beat
it also sucks when ALL YOU WANT is for the audience to clap and vibe along but you can TELL it’s only like 25% of them doing it, MAX… its so tragic in the moment 😭💔 but i can see how it’d be annoying for music that’s not really going for that vibe lol
Audience member who loves music and who feels that…and the one person in the choir slightly off key like a dagger in the ears.
This guy seems like one of those geniuses that doesn’t know it and or who doesn’t care and just does his own thing. I LOVE him. I would kill to see this live.
My Favorite man Tim. He was once "just" a stand up comic, now award winning actor, muscian and composer.
Someone who likes both Tim Minchin and Terry Pratchett is truly someone of surpassing taste.
I usually hate musical comedy, but Tim is comical music genius and has me laughing at myself for my angsty taste.
Same! I feel ya, but oh man, i fell in love with Prejudice
There are two Sides of that Stuff.
One is a Comedian doing Music.
The other are Musicians doing Comedy.
You gotta have Talent in both, need to be double gifted, to succeed in attempting that.
Many of the secondary Kind do Comedy that also needs the Audience have a profund understanding of Music itself to appreciate what is done - like Jazz does. That rareley happens to People like us.
@@Rabijeel He's actually said that he figures he's a pretty good comedian for a musician, and a pretty good musician for a comediant.

I was in the audience one of the two nights this show was filmed. Was blown away by his brilliance then, still blown away by his brilliance now.
This must have been such a fun nightmare to transcribe, lol.
I freakin' love Tim Minchin. The man is a genius. As are you for, I can only assume accurately, putting his music to paper. Well done I say xD
Tony Williams be like
Seems pretty accurate.
How he keeps a straight face through this performance, is far more impressive than any of the musical talent he possesses..
He breaks character right near the end for a split second when he's standing back up. Lol.
OMG. Teenage me wished for this transcription over six years ago, and it's finally come true!! This is amazing; dark side is one of my favorite tim minchin songs, and now I can play along parts of it on piano if I want, thank you so much!!!!
But he doesn't appeal to the teenage market ....
Good luck!
I remember first seeing Tim Minchin on Californication and thinking "Wow, I wish that actor was a real musician" and it took me YEARS to find out he actually is. Such an insanely talented dude. Also love the transcription!
He is far, far more talented than Atticus Fetch. Lol.
All of George Colliers uploads and transcriptions need to go into the Svalbard data vault for future generations
Not only does this guy go hard, so does his phrasing. As a violinist, commendable.
Me: oh shit is he actually going to cry?
Him: DADDY NEVER CAME TO MY BALL GAMES!!!
HE'S ONLY SLEEPING!
This transcription is a magnum opus in itself. Incredible work!
This is an accurate depiction of what is going through my head in any social situation
9:50 the vocals are just out of this world. I can't stop laughing. What a musical god.
This song is such a banger. I've heard it a thousand times and I still listen with wide eyed wonder every time. Tim Minchin is the barefoot ghost of Beethoven.
Is this the whole thing?? You absolute madman.
He just looks genuinely confused and i love that
He sang this song in dublin recently for the encore(i know i lost my mind) but at 8:46 he then transitioned into white wine in the sun and it was so damn beautiful
I was waiting for Fur Elise in that run and I wasn't disappointed. What a mind Tim Minchin has! I won't lie, though, I'm sad you didn't try to transpose the vocals as well for giggles. I realize that these take up a huge amount of time to try to transpose, and I'm grateful for the work that you do.

now i think i'm terrible, literally no one can compare to this he did an absurdly long solo and kept it *interesting*

@@fungidoggo9948 I think learning how to read them is going to save a lot more time than learning everything by ear
reading sheet music is very helpful and difficult, you shouldn't blame yourself because you can only read sheet music... on the other hand, learning to play by ear is an extremely useful skill in my opinion
I need to get back into playing piano, and I can tell you that many (if not most) people can’t just play by ear. To be able to play by ear takes having a musical propensity and then learning to use some kind of instrument (even learning to use one’s vocal chords) to get just a sense of the notes that you might hear.
Bravo! There’s always room at the asylum for one more melodramatic therapist. ESP one with ostensibly an outrageously obstreperous sense of humor. And kudos for keeping boogies in the opera’s woogies.

The fact that you managed to even transcribe this just blows me away. LOL Wow! I never knew that I needed Darkside scored. I'm not sure if my favourite notation is "formulate how to stop audience clapping", "descend into a pit of despair", "you know where this is going" or "big cluster smash and zombie move".
I always count this performance is completely amazing. But the work to transcript it is really insane! It's so sad that I never hear something new from him in last decade :(
You must not be looking very hard!
Maybe he's just sleeping? 😂
dude! He's got whole new albums! He's been in Jesus Christ Superstar, he wrote the music for Mathilda and Ground Hog day musicals. He's very prolific, and busy, and his music and talent keep shining! czcams.com/users/TimMinchin The Absence Of You is one of the most beautiful songs.
He just released a new song like a few days ago in addition to the stuff the other replies have mentioned. He just took a break from touring and writing this kind of musical comedy show.

@@isaacpianos5208 He stopped taking piano lessons when he was young and didn't come back to the instrument until years later, but never studied music. He calls himself a "hack pianist" and just practices a lot.
That’s not precisely true. He’s not comfortable or adept at “reading dots” as he says, but he *has* studied music, quite a bit. Even got an advanced degree in contemporary music from WAAPA.
Bit of back story: This is a comment on Tim's struggle to enter the music industry in the 90s when depressed sounding grunge bands were popular. Tim considers himself super lucky in life so struggles to relate to that kind of music (his song Rock and Roll Nerd is good context for this song 🙂). Tim is also an actor so this is him rolling his skills together. Lol. DADDY NEVER CAME TO MY BALL GAMES 😭😭😭.
To say nothing about how insanely good this performance is.... the more insane the performance, the more fiendish the transcription. Mega props to you, George.
When I saw the thumbnail I knew we were in for some madness but I did not expect you to transcribe ALL of Darkside!
This is genius to put the scrolling piano transcript with video. As a musician myself, that just makes it so much more fun and hilarious!
Omg... the musical talent is genius
Absolute respect to you cor choosing the amazing version of the song, it's the only version that my heart will accept.
I started watching this video having misread the length as 3:15, not 13:15. I'm impressed at the energy that was maintained, I feel exhausted just watching, my arms are not durable enough to play that much for that long.
9:42 is me in the shower tryna figure out the tune i wanne go for.
04:40 “Oh you’re off beat, wicked!!!”
I wonder how much is improvised and how much he planned and rehearsed, maybe even wrote down.
Billy Joel wrote Fantasies & Delusions. Would love to see what Tim Minchin would write to be released to the world as such.
If you listen to the other recordings of this song, it’s mostly improvised. The song by definition is really just chords and lyrics. The rest is pure badassery
A lot of it is improvised, and Tim can't read or write music.
This is the best performance of dark side I’ve seen him do. Absolutely amazing finger work
Tim Minchin truly is a genius and an incredible pianist. I've watched this video and Confessions by him maybe a hundred times now :D
I saw this live way back when it was half this length. 😆 Can't believe how much he's added to it but still... simply divine.
So this is what happened when his psychiatrist gave him a weekend pass from the institution for the Musically Insane.
I was learning english listening to his songs back in 2010's. Now I am learning music, true legend and he in fact created an exeptionaly deep performace as Judas in 2012 JCS.
