I got sad in "What Was '05 For" at the line about his man, but then I heard this and he said it again and I'm like 'So is your nan a Time Lord? She can die multiple times?'

Minchin hits the real British type of humour (I know hes not!) in that he uses it to confront the most important things in life. Some humours just obscene or silly, but he is both funny and deep. I <3

I love how you hear the audience go "Awwww!" right after he says "'06 was the last year for my nana". And then he continues...

does remind anyone else of the the "what do tigers dream of" song from the hangover?

Erm, no, I was saying how often when you listen to a song, the lyrics get overlooked slightly. I know Tim's a very clever little fucker, and I know his intelligence is *most* of the act, but he also uses the actual tunes.
Also, I doubt I've ever listened to one of his more wordy songs and got everything straight away, memorably. Read lyrics = understand the song. There's a reason Storm & Mitsubishi Colt don't have as much music in them, you know.

wat, the music is part of the cleverness... if you juxtapose the music to what he's saying, it's often a humorous contradiction
i get the impression that you think the cleverness behind his lyrics are like "second" or "hidden" part of the songs, when in reality that's the entirety of the act... he's a comedian
