discoveries: tim minchin

so in my long list of loves there always comes a point where there is one that is an amalgamation. a person who is reminiscent but fresh all at the same time. mind blowing in the their own right but still indicative of those that were found before them.

and tim minchin is one such person.

and since i am keeping track, i found him technically through noel while watching buzzcocks and wandered into his videos and have been up all night with him. he is australian, a pianist, a songwriter/poet, a satirist, a comedian, a singer, an actor, and has amazing eyes. he is clever as hell, adorable and theatrical, and is also a really really good singer and pianist.

he is clearly up my alley in every way but this following video sealed an already closed deal when it made me cry laughing, twice.
