Tim Minchin

Bei Ars Libertatis wurde ich auf das Video Storm von Tim Minchin aufmerksam. Der Text ist wirklich einfach großartig und nicht das einzigste was der Australier Tim Minchin zu bieten hat.


Update: Animierte Version

Hier hat er einen Vorschlag wie man den Nahostkonflikt mit einer Friedenshymne lösen könnte und mit dem Lied "Ten-Foot Cock and A Few Hundred Virgins" wird nicht nur der Islam "kritisiert", sondern auch das Christentum:

And so if...
God was there from the very beginning
He invented men and women,
Then He also invented wanking,
Then He said wanking was sinning.
So if I'm feeling randy
I'm not allowed to hand-shandy,
But having sex with my family,
That is just fucking great.
It's all there in Ezekial 8,
Just before He opens up His big pearly gate,
And says that it's a sin
To take it up the date,
Even if it's great,
Even with your mate.
[...]
So if you...
Cover the bodies of your women
Everybody is grinning,
Because black is so slimming,
Though it's not great for swimming.
But it gives me an erection,
With the increased sexual tension,
What with the U.V. protection
That is second to none.
You'll find it all in the Quran
Just next to the bit that justifies guns,
And says that it's a sin
To take it up the bum,
Even if it's fun,
Even in the scrum.

Drowned hat ebenso einen äußerst interessante Text zu bieten:
Your love is like finger nails on a chalkboard
Your love is like throwing myself overboard
A breakdown on a motorway
A heart attack on Christmas day
Like scaling a cliff then falling off
Like trying not to cough
[...]
Your love is like sand inside a bathing suit
Your love is a symphony with the sound on mute
A letter sent to the wrong address
Or red wine on a wedding dress
Like broken bones in my playing hand
Like trying to swallow sand
