- The late great Herbert Khaury (a.k.a. Tiny Tim) performed on this special along with Barnes & Barnes and Weird Al in 1991. I do not claim ownership of this video, and all rights belong to Barry Hansen, Comedy Central, and Ernie Clark. (Special thanks to Ernie for providing me with this priceless performance by the one and only Tiny Tim).
I worked with Tiny Tim he was the nicest man and a veritable Encyclopedia of musical knowledge! Rest in peace tiny!

Amen!❤🤙👍
He radiated gentleness and sweetness. R.I.P.
Have you wrote about it how it was? Interesting
Yes when I worked with Tiny Tim on the Mike Panera tour I did several shows the last date I played drums for Mike Panera I got to play with Tiny Tim I played with Tiny Tim he said it was the only time he had a drummer play with him solo he was quite an encyclopedia
I once was on a red eye flight on leave from the Navy because my dad in Atlantic City had a stroke. Mr. Tim sat across from me and I started talking to him. I'd always been a fan of music from the 20s through the 40s. He lit up when I mentioned that (I'd no idea I was speaking to one of the world's greatest pop music curators). We talked about vintage music the entire time. He was extremely articulate and very charming. I didn't mention why I was on that flight, but I was very grateful for his company; it really buoyed up my mood. Curiously, many years later, I found out he lived only four blocks from my house in Minneapolis. I always regreted not visiting him as he had a phenomenal memory and I'm sure he would have remembered me.

I’ve heard people describe him as a freak in the past but he was a tremendous talent. He helped keep vaudeville and Americana alive for decades. I was always impressed by his vocal range.
Very true back in the 60s when he was much younger he would get made fun of his talent idk if you’ve seen the Johnny Carson show when tiny appears in it and they don’t take him seriously
I always thought he was such a gentle soul. He was also very spiritual. He was the son of an Orthodox Christian priest and he was very serious about being a Christian. Unfortunately, he didn't have too much luck in the marriage department.
Es qe el personaje qe hacia era novedoso para su epoca
Vaudeville reminds me of Chaplin and Stan Laurel. Is this correct?
How is this creepy? The man loves music and loves to share it with those around him.
When a Demon likes "Thru the tulips" and play it on repeat it becomes creepy! :)
Mr.Khaury is a once in a millenia talent. We are truly blessed
@@Hammersch Not that creepy tho. Insidious wasn't scary. Now, go look at the album cover for Tiny's Chameleon.
You're right, not creepy. Tiny was a gift, an extraordinary musician, a scholar, and a historian. Many of his songs were forgotten tunes from the Great American Songbook, and all that music history would've been lost and forgotten without him. Tiny was amazing.
What was so creepy was he died doing what he loved to do...... what an amazing singer was he.
He was finally rewarded with much recognition from people. Nice thing.
I demand a movie about this wonderful man.
Weird Al would perfect to play him.
@@kentaccordionist There's a documentary about him called King For a Day, commentated by Weird Al funnily enough.
No one convinces me that they weren't family ❤
I grew up listening to Tiny Tim!!!! I'm 56 and I STILL adore HIM! 💋❤
god lord you're a puppy hun
Yes Tiny Tim was always looking for a million seller and I wonder how we'd feel to see that hundreds and hundreds of his videos are up here with thousands and tens of thousands of people listening, and his songs are used in different Contemporary TV shows that the young people enjoy with a million hits and a million views. I'd say I wonder how he would feel but I know he would be thrilled that he was proved right, that popular music is popular at any era on true talent and True Heart are always rewarded even though it's decades after his passing.
I saw him in concert here in Sydney, Australia, and was later introduced to him by the promoter. He was an extraordinary, underrated talent who had a compassionate and kind heart.
💔 🇬🇧 🏴 👍

Wish I could have met him he seems so true to himself and kind. Different yes but it's better to be different than all the same. I'm 32 and I don't see why people bash others as long as they are not hurting anyone or a child pedophile. Rip Tiny Tim hope you are tip toeing through the garden of Daisy's in Heaven.
You are lucky my friend.
I Heard the cover staying Alive in australia... Magnificent audio...
Que personajazo se vestia y cantaba como el queria que sensibilidad tenia lastima que en ese tiempo de gente cerrada y espantada no lo comprendian pero ahora te recordamos tiny como el gran artista que fuiste😪😪😪
Todo un genio nacido en la época equivocada, desde que lo descubrí me impresionó tremendamente, gran talento…con mucho amor desde este plano terrenal hasta la eternidad donde ya se encuentra el grandioso y genio maestro Tiny Tim
When he started playing "Tip-toe" at the end, it brought tears to my eyes for the first time.
I'll admit I use to think he was weird. But now living in 2023 and going into 2024 he's not at all weird. The world needs talent like his that's sincere and humbling. ❤🎉
I never noticed before now;
that since he plays his ukulele left-handed he also strums upward , instead of the usual downward strum , For right handed players.
Just all part of his uniqueness and his wonderful wonderful presence.
Thank you Lord for Tiny Tim;
Rest In Peace dear Sir 😔⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶🎵⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
pisses sitting down
Wow well observed...amazing
That's to the guy who noticed the strum up and left hand. Crazy mad. Tim was amazing. Just pleased I'm able to know who he was, hear his music and for a little while when watching these things feel some of that joy he gave to everyone.
For playing it left handed he would have played the frets upside down too wouldnt he? (If he were playing a right handed ukulele)
@@2TWIST20 He has something TINY!
Why the hell isn't there a movie/biopic on Tiny Tim? Hollywood, I'm waiting....
-
If you agree, repost this! On every video you can! Let's make this long awaited movie on him.
He was too good. He wasn't a pedo, addict or murderer.
Just thought this exact thing tonight
If there is ever going to be one I think Russell Brand would be a perfect fit to play Tiny Tim. He looks just like him
I was thinking this today, and weird al should play him
I think I'd want him played properly though, the temptation would be to " ham it up" , and that'd be a shame and wouldn't do him justice.
Best of luck from England
This guy's voice is limitless. A true genious
He was an excellent artist, a brilliant singer, even a great actor. His songs are beautiful. But in his time, many people did not understand his outstanding art.
Tiny Tim the master of vibrato and falsett! God bless you and RIP!
Met him in the late 70s in a Long Island club, The White House. We were the only ones who showed up the first night. He apologized to us but he wasn't going to play. I shook his hand and he thanked us for coming. We got in the next night without paying and he was amazing.

One of the kindest more sincere people to ever perform ...not to mention musically gifted. God Bless Tiny Tim!
SO so true. He was so far ahead of his contemporaries that they didnt know or appreciate it. Among other things, he was a musical historian with a photographic memory. Get him relaxed and watch him go. I was proud to have met him, twice. The first time we were introduced, it was just a handshake (his was very firm), and the second time, some years later, he remembered my name. Dude was outstanding!
A real Renaissance man! That is pretty special you had a chance to meet him...twice!
Cheers!
bckm54 im so jalous! I love Tiny, and it saddens me how few understand the treasure he was, let alone are aware how many of the big names in rock was inspired by him
@@eltonsmor god bless him
Yesir
What a fantastic man, even in the 1960's when he first started falsetto singing, he had such a deep voice and it only got deeper as he got older. Through the 1990's when he was in his final years he was still able to hit those falsetto voice, cracked and a little screechy, yes, but still absolutely amazing. Rest in Peace Tiny, god bless him.
I was there, dead center and about 6 or 8 rows back. This was a repeat of his performance. I stood up as he hit the stage the first time, and they made him come out a second time. My friend who's in the show told me it was because my stupid head blocked the one camera view they had of his entrance, being the ONLY person to give him a standing ovation. I felt like an ass, especially cuz the first time around was SO MUCH better! But on the upside, i got to see Tiny play two shows in one night.
OHH! That's why at 1:05 he says "thank you guys for doing that twice" xDD
@@MarioNotLuigi lol
@Don Avan everything is connected. EVERYTHING!
@Don Avan Don isn't CZcams wonderful? I thought you replying to a comment posted six years ago was great. I didn't want you to wait that long to know someone had read your post. I have to say I enjoyed tiny Tim's performance immensely. Best wishes from the uk.
@Don Avan wow what a great person you must be also, taking the time to write such a detailed response regarding your own thoughts. May I just say I agree with everything you say in its entirety. I will continue to hunt down clips and videos that I haven't yet had the pleasure of seeing. Best wishes to you for the future from the UK 🇬🇧.
If this doesn't show what an incredible diversified talent he was then I don't know what would...
In the last year, I have, through film and audio tape, become a fan of Tiny Tim. Great man, a great singer, and a genuinely kind man.
RIP, Mr. Tim

Let Me Call You Sweetheart > 01:59
I am dreaming Dear of you, day by day
Dreaming when the skies are blue, When they're gray
When the silv'ry moonlight gleams, Still I wander on in dreams
In a land of love, it seems, Just with you
so Let Me Call You Sweetheart
I'm in love with you
Let me hear you whisper
That you love me too
Keep the love light glowing
In your eyes so true
Let me call you sweetheart
I'm in love with you
Meet Me Tonight in Dreamland > 03:08
Under the silv'ry moon.
Meet me tonight in dreamland,
Where love's sweet roses bloom.
Come with the love light gleamin
In your dear eyes of blue.
Meet me in dreamland,
Sweet, dreamy dreamland,
There let my dreams come true.
Let Me Call You Sweetheart > 03:41
I'm in love with you
Let me hear you whisper
That you love me too
Keep the love light glowing
In your eyes so true
Let me call you sweetheart
I'm in love with you
She'll Be Coming Round The Mountain > 04:33
She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes
She'll be driving six white horses when she comes
Oh, we'll all go out to meet her when she comes
We'll kill the old red rooster when she comes
I've Been Working on the Railroad > 05:27
All the livelong day
I've been working on the railroad
Just to pass the time away
Can't you hear the whistle blowing
get up so in the morn
Can't you hear the whistle blowing
Dinah, blow your horn
You're A Grand Old Flag > 06:20
you’re a high flying flag;
And forever, in peace, may you wave.
You’re the emblem of the land I love,
The home of the free and the brave.
Every heart beats true, for the RED, White, & Blue,
Where there’s never a boast or brag;
But, should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.
I’m a Yankee Doodle dandy, a Yankee Doodle do or die;
A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam. Born on the Fourth of July.
I’ve got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart, she’s my Yankee Doodle joy.
Yankee Doodle went to London
Just to ride the ponies;
I am a Yankee Doodle Boy!
Over There (The Yanks are Coming) > 07:12
Over there, over there
Send the word, send the word over there
That the Yanks are coming
The Yanks are coming
The drums rum-tumming
Everywhere
So prepare, say a prayer
Send the word, send the word to beware
We'll be over, we're coming over
And we won't come back till it's over
Over there
Beer Barrel Polka (Roll Out the Barrel) > 07:44
Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here
California Here I Come > 08:10
California, here I come
Right back where I started from
Where bowers are flowers bloom in the spring
Each morning at dawning
Birdies sing and everything
A sun kissed miss said "Don't be late!"
That's why I can hardly wait,
Open up that Golden Gate!
California, here I come!
Home in Pasadena > 08:35
California Here I Come > 08:10
Right back where I started from
Where bowers are flowers bloom in the spring
Each morning at dawning
Birdies sing and everything
A sun kissed miss said "Don't be late!"
That's why I can hardly wait,
Open up that Golden Gate!
California, here I come!
America the beautiful > 09:48
O beautiful for spacious skies
For amber waves of grain
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
I Got You Babe > 11:11
They say we're young and we don't know
We won't find out until we grow
Well I don't know if all that's true
'Cause you got me, and baby I got you
Babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned, our money's all been spent
I guess that's so, we don't have a pot
But at least I'm sure of all the things we got
I got you babe
I got you babe
I got flowers in the spring
I got you to wear my ring
And when I'm sad, you're a clown
And if I get scared, you're always around
Don't let them say your hair's too long
'Cause I don't care, with you I can't go wrong
Then put your little hand in mine
There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb
Babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
Tip Toe Through The Tulips > 13:00
Tiptoe through the window
By the window, that is where I'll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me
Oh, tiptoe from the garden
By the garden of the willow tree
And tiptoe through the tulips with me
Knee deep in flowers we'll stray
We'll keep the showers away
And if I kiss you in the garden, in the moonlight
Will you pardon me?
And tiptoe through the tulips with me
Maybe it's flowers you stray will be the showers of life
And when I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight
Will you pardon me and tiptoe through the tulips with me?

Dr. Dememto was Weird Al's mentor. He must have had a soft spot for long curly haired music geniuses. :) I absolutely loved Tiny Tim and am a big fan of Weird Al as well. Thank you so much for your kindness to this sweet soul known as Tiny Tim, Dr. Demento.
Dr. D didn't meet Weird Al before he ended up in the public ear. Al sent a tape to the show, and it was good, so The Doctor added it to the playlist. He saw the brilliance and the audience concurred. Not really a mentor, but definitely one of the greatest things that ever happened to him, and Mr. Tim, too. AND all of the other great musicians who would have remained in relative obscurity, but for their exposure on the Dr. D show.
And he's a damn swell human too. You should see his record collection!!
Amo a este sujeto
Me alegra que por fin le estemos dando el reconocimiento que se merece.
If every Human being had the love and consideration of Tiny Tim then this World would be a far more harmonious place to live in.R.I.P. Herbert Khaury as you left this World a richer place for you having been here.See you on the other side my brother in Christ.
Amen, Brother Urban. Praise JESUS Forevermore.
😥
I never knew this
The way the audience responded when Tiny started singing “Tiptoe” was like magic-he’d cast his musical spell on them. I can see why people say, “God bless;” he gave his heart and soul through his performances. Rest In Peace, Tiny Tim.
No one seems to notice Tim plays the right handed ukelele with his left hand. He did not change the string placement to accommodate left hand play. He was a music history genius, played several instruments very well. He was also very kind in heart.
A genius. I wish he was still here today. I believe today’s people would have appreciated him more.
There’s something so endearing about him. A beauty in what others would call madness. It calls from under his songs and says “follow us and have fun”. His whole persona screams of kindness and a rebellious nature that didn’t or couldn’t care what was the ‘norm’. His whole heart was in every lyric, every note he played and you can hear his love for a music that time has forgotten. Well you crazy, beautiful long haired man I’m in that moment with you and I LOVE IT. ❤️❤️ Rest well sweet Tiny Tim❤️
This man is very special, people who don´t get that are bizarre. He is ONE OF A KIND!
Han var verkligen one of a kind! Älskart!
A misunderstood genius and a walking encyclopedia of music. He was an innocent who could laugh at himself and take on the scorn and cruel babble of the world while pursuing his calling. A rare person and huge talent. With the right management he could have become a millionaire and who knows what he might have come up with? Instead he died penniless. But the joke was on us! R.I.P. Mr Tiny Tim.
(T.T. called my attention to Crosby and more importantly to the work of Ted Lewis.)
Everybody dies, penniless, if you think about it. Even if you could take it with you, what you going to spend it on. Bribe Maggots to not nibble your naughty bits and armpits, because it tickles, when they wiggles, especially around the Areola
Some people are still racist & were then, also,now. Some are homophobic, etc.
So why is it unbelievable how people would react to someone like TT?
I never knew Tiny Tim had such wonderful voice range and talent. This was great!
Lance Boil Still you can hear his voice breaking in the falsetto parts. His vocal cords were getting old. For falsetto you need really supple tissue and people can lose their falsetto over a period of weeks, sometimes days. Later on, he would only sing the lower registers.
This man’s creativity is out of the roof
I Had The Pleasure To Meet Tiny Tim In Lima Ohio I have 6 Photos He Posey For He Was A kind & Real Gentleman I Loved Talking To Him & Seeing His Show God Bless TinyTim

Magnificient Performance he was one of a kind. Different but his performances were sincere RIP Tiny Tim
Bravo!
I can never repay my debt to Dr. Demento, he introduced me to some of my favorite musical acts back in the 80s. All hail Weird Al and Tiny Tim. I will now eat up some fish heads (yum) and then take the skinheads bowling.
Wow, I’ve never heard him sing in the lower register, only in a falsetto. He was quite good.
u live under rocks son ?
Quite good?? He was one of the best 😂
🎶🤔💨💞
If you listen to his hit 1968 album Dr. Demento referred to - he sings in both registers frequently.

Adorable.. Siempre con sus trajes y su buen humor ❤️
What a sweet guy.
SOY ARGENTINO... LLEGUÉ HASTA ACA POR UN VÍDEO QUE MIRE EN FACEBOOK ... ES INCREÍBLE LA VOZ DE ESTE SEÑOR , Y NO SE HABLA NUNCA O POR LO MENOS NUNCA ESCUCHE NOMBRARLO !!!
Yo también llegué aquí por un vídeo de face y ahora me quiero leer su biografía. Que gran artista tan mal valorado!!! Espero ahora sí se de más y más a conocer su talento y lo que nos dejó . Que no muera y más artistas se enamoren de su talento.
Nacio con ese talento....y por lo que se...murio asi. Su vibrato era instantaneo y instintivo.
Tenía un falsete y un vibrato muy marcado buenisimo
I know a good man when I see one, and with Tiny Tim I see one. He is just being himself. A sensitive, sincere, loving man. God bless him.
I played at this show back in the day. (Barnes & Barnes). Met Tiny and got pix with him. He was quiet, which was fine. Would have loved to hang out with him more or have worked with him! What a talent and national treasure!!
Am I crazy or was this as awkward as it looks. Like was there any sheet music for the band or what? It's like they're just trying to follow him on the fly lol
Tiny Tim was a unique human being, God rest his soul.
Tiny Tim was a very special kind of person. He had a passion for so many things and it really showed in not only his performances but also when he spoke of all these things and people that inspired him. I just wish he took better care of himself. He might still be kicking around today.
He suffered polio heart attack skeletal problem and many others
TT always made a point of thanking the band, something you don't hear too much from performers. The mark of a true gentleman.
I’ve been listening to Tiny everyday for the last few months, since i heard him here on CZcams ❤he’s wonderful 💝
The band had a hard time following the first song but quickly made up for it. You have to appreciate a non rehearsal performance like this
It´s sad to see all the videos about him which are titled "creepy", etc. TikTok and Insidious gave him that role. BUT HE´S NOT!!! Tiny was an unique entertainer and musician who passed away too early. I was born in 2006 so I never had the chance to meet him, but I listen to him daily for a couple of hours. My generation only know Tiny Tim for Living In The Sunlight from Spongebob or Tip Toe Thru the Tulips from Insidious/TikTok/CZcams/etc. He is and was so much more than his best-known songs. He had much good songs like: The Other Side, Fill Your Heart, Strawberry Tea, Have You Seen My Little Sue, As Time Goes By, Save Your Sorrows, Tip Toe To The Gaspumps, Let Me Call You Sweet Heart, Perhaps in the Next life, I´ve Never seen a straight banana, etc. Tiny deserves the title for being one of the most influencial musicians of the 20th century. God Bless Him
Don't feel too bad about those videos titled "creepy" - you're correct in thinking that Tik Tok and horror movies like Insidious made that a popular thing to do. Many video games do the same thing - take an old tune from the 30s, accentuate the old scratchy recording sound coming through an old Gramophone, and suddenly you have the crem dela crem of "creepy" atmosphere. Anyone who cared to dig deeper would find that Tiny Tim was genuinely gracious, the real deal - an American treasure.
In all reality, creepy is this new generation. They're the one's who create and enjoy all these over the top disgustingly violent and depressing movies and video games.
Tiny Tim is awesome. God bless Tiny Tim. Rest in peace.
What a fine instrument of a voice he possessed ~ have greatly enjoyed the deep dive I have taken this last week on this very unique artist.
He was a most lively interpreter of American pre WW2 music and highly witty at reinventing contemporary later 20th century popular songs 🎵 - of which Highway To Hell is my favourite.
Joy, laughter, fun, charisma, class - TT had it all!
El hombre era muy talentoso, hay que reconocerlo. Descansa en paz, Tiny Tim ❤
Dr. Demento was important to a lot of kids from small towns who didn't feel like they didn't fit in with anyone.
Never saw him like this. What an amazing artist!!! Who tragically passed away too soon while in concert! I also recognized his tunes too!!

RIP Tiny. He was one of the nicest most honest person I'd ever met. He was so humble and actually enjoyed talking to his fans. So many people took advantage of him over the years. Exploited him basically...Johnny Carson being the biggest star and was responsible for Tiny's fame. Johnny later became a bit jealous he was getting more popular than Johnny was which led to Tiny ever getting asked back.
you met him in real life
I believe one of his first television performances was on Laugh In back in 1968. But he also appeared in the tonight show numerous times.
Johnny Carson was jealous of Tiny Tim? How would you ever think anyone would believe that?
Tiny was the greatest - he always makes me smile!!
I truly always liked this man and as long as I have breath in me he will always have a place in my ❤

Tim could have been a hell of a radio baseball announcer. No kidding, that voice is perfect and imagine him leading "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" during the 7th inning stretch!
Tiny Tim, American Treasure.
Tiny Tim was such a wonderful person.
I wish I knew Tiny Tim. I never met him. I had a friend ken who was a world traveled entertainer with some of the most famous folks in show business as friends (he toured with many of them or opened for them. He was a long time friend (many years) and also was a tour mate of Tiny Tim when they were on the Roy Radin Show (the last touring vaudville show in the US). I read personal letters from Tiny and saw pics of my friend and tiny and many other famous folks. I was told many things and I personally feel what ever orientation Tiny had was his business between him and God. Tiny was a devout christian. I dont know why folks cant let the guy lay in peace and be in peace with his maker. I learned that Tiny was one of the most genuine,honest,extremely polite and personable folks in show business.
"Tiny was a devout christian." "genuine" "honest". One of these things is not like the other.

THANKS for sharing this! I LOVE Tiny Tim, I discovered this amazing artist five months ago and now I listen to Tiny ALL the time! I am also now a collector of his records and photos and have recently bought a record signed by him. I also LOVE the movie Streeet of Dreams by the great artist Martin Sharp. I think Tiny is the greatest gay-icon ever, bringing knowledge of the days of vaudeville into the world as well as a unique style. I think Tiny Tim is the Salvador Dali of music.
Por su forma de vestir y forma de ser en vez de caer mal cae muy bien. Grande. Mejor que muchos de nuestra época que hacen ridículo
What a performer,truly unique.Thanks for giving us the chance to see this,what a great upload.
The man spoke boldly,nonchalantly mentioned the name of Jesus the “Christ” and the Holy Spirit publicly,not afraid,or ashamed,a huge plus in my book,for this you can know he’s truly “resting in peace”.
Love 1920s music,such a treat. Simpler times
The orchestra is AMAZING I'm so impressed by the basic improvisation like the train whistle and clinks and clanks in "I've been working on the railroad". Unless they rehearsed beforehand... But still!
especially amazing when they fuck up keynote songs last 2 verses.
not sure covering 3 chord songs fall under " amazing "
go back to bed son
I used to be a busking musician I would have loved a chance to perform with Herbert! I love people who romanticize the music and ways of the past, he was simultaneously young at heart and an old soul. Rest in piece, Sir.
I have noticed that, in this culture today, people autmatically label anything as creepy if it differs from their view of the norm, or if it's something they don't understand.
Joseph Bieber is edgy these days. Tiny wouldn't get a look.

Tom Smith That is your perception though, and for all I know you have very little life experience and haven't left home yet. I guess creepy can have multiple meanings is what you could say. Or you could just not say anything.
You’re right but people always did that.
When Tiny was first introduced people were saying he was creepy
The Ghost of Kurt Cobain
No, they said he was weird.
Never forgot this hero!
💔 🇬🇧 🏴 👍
God bless our musicians
Amazing performance.
Muy bueno, es un genio no entiendo porque no es muy conocido, una pena porque es muy interesante lo que hace ,además es muy diferente a los demás.lo descubrí hace ya un tiempo, allá por la década de los 90 ,desde entonces lo escuchaba en un viejo cassette y con la llegada de internet lo pude ver y saber como era.saludos amigos hispanoparlantes.
Tiny tim is a legend
This man and her incredible voice, te quiero mucho amigo mio, espero que estes descansando en paz, good vibes and bless for you tiny from Chile
Tiny is awsome, one of the most underrated singers of his era. Recommend the Justin Martell's 2016 biography, The Eternal troubador, to any fan, it is a spellbinding and meticulously researched work written with a underlying appreciation of this great artist. It provides a fascinating insight into his mind and outlook on life over the years, and I couldn't put this book down until I finished reading it. Long live Tiny!
@@user-xu4ow3bu6f don't be so dramatic u softball
he was beloved in his era!
We're definitely in a different era niw.
@@hoss-lk4bg Tiny Dick Huh!
I remember when this was normal. People were playing ukuleles and singing this in the parks everywhere.
" when this was normal "
for tha rest of us wtf r u talking about son. our grands do similar in their story telling
i'm guessing he means "when tiny tim wasn't considered creepy."
.when one lives their life doing what they truly love...it must be seen as a great success.......no matter the amount of attention it gains from others.....
A genius and a lover of music, clearly

Sou fã de Tiny Tim, seu talento é inigualável, seu incrível poder de domínio do falsete. Suas músicas me enche de alegria! ❤
I had forgotten what a machine he was! This is Non-Stop he has not got youth on his side anymore. And yet no Auto-Tune or phony baloney just pure lung power! This is almost the exact same performance I got to witness twice a day on the Great American circus with the exception of a few songs that were changed here in there and a few songs added here and there he was always a whirlwind of excitement when he performed and you can see it on his face in this video how happy he was to perform sorry about the lack of punctuation if you can understand what I just said I don't know what to say
¡¡¡ UN ARTISTA!!! ,ESTRAMBÓTICO, RARO, TENEBROSO, CIRCENSE, TALENTO QUE EMBELESA COMO DE OTRA DIMENSIÓN 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😯👏👏MARAVILLOSO ¡¡¡ UN ARTISTA!!!👏👏👏👏👏...
Awwww he truly is a wonderful human being. And im so thankful that those ppl there that night was really really kind to him and respectful. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm surprised this appearance wasn't featured in the documentary about him a few years ago. It looks like a highlight of his career. May he R.I.P.
I found out about Tiny Tim because of insidous and I'm so glad i did. His voice is so soothing!
He's weird, but awesome. His covers of WWI and WWII era songs introduced me to some great artist and songs. "Livin In The Sunlight" got my hooked on Maurice Chevalier
I first heard and learned of him from the early early years of Monday Night RAW.
Damn! He was a really good singer! I only heard the tulips song.
💔 🇬🇧 🏴 👍
that's cuz your a child son

Very upstanding man and kind soul. I bought a Tiny Tim shirt. I think everyone should know who he is.
How unique of a voice. What a great man who will be remembered forever ❤️
I WAS A FRIEND OF Tiny as he use to call me telling me how that he loved the songs that I co wrote with the late Lou Robino. TINY WAS GOING TO DO A WHOLE ALBUM WITH JUST OUR SONGS ONLY . I Believe In Tommorow was on his last CD Girl .
I miss Tiny Tim
A gentle, loving, tender soul to never forget. 💐 RIP sweetheart
What a treasure...I had no idea!
we just explained him to our grands. there are thousands similar kid. ask your grandparents. as you grow up we encourage your to learn history decades before you were here like this
