Your Wednesday Moment of "Size Matters"

Brit/Australian songwriter/actor/comedian Tim Minchin, ladies and germs. As Jack Nicholson famously said of Bob Dylan -- this guy's a riot.

I am embarrassed to admit it, but I was unaware of Minchin until I chanced across the above by acccident over at YouTube the other day. In any case, it's one of the most brilliantly funny things I've encountered in far too long, and there's lots more where that came from. Word to the wise.

P.S.: As you'll notice, the subtitles are almost -- unconsciously, if that is the apt word -- funnier than the actual lyrics.

P.P.S.: Minchin gets extra points from me for the Victor Borge reference near the end. 😎

  1. Check out Tim Minchin's 9 life lessons graduation speech on YouTube. Priceless and true.

    As a lapsed Jew atheist, I love his (rather long) tune, Thank You, God.

    And the more rocking version from Robbie Rist performing as his alter ego, Ballzy Tomorrow.
