Comedy Lounge - Beardyman on BBC Radio 1

Beardyman brings his unique blend of beatboxing and loops to Radio 1 for Phil and Alice's 4 Minute Comedy - but he's so special we gave him 19 minutes instead.

[@althecampervanman1619]

FUCKING GENIUS.........I'm almost 60, been a musician / composer for 45 years of that time. What Beardyman does here is nothing short of genius. The knowledge needed to create like this on the spot, should not be underestimated. Sure, he's probably been doing this for at least ten years to get it to be so seamless, but it really is like watching a modern-day Mozart at work.

[@Mamedullin]

8:58 He doesn't even let the kid feel awkward and supports his suggestion on spot. What a wholesome bearded man

[@weggles91]

nobody got that it's a Doctor Who reference 😂

[@Schwein41]

oh my god that cracked me up. a blast from the past. literally.

[@SavanChandniGandecha]

I was the one who suggested the Timey Wimey song title to Beardyman :) Doctor Who reference to my fellow Whovians!

[@FriedlichChiller]

Obviously he didn't know it. :D

[@SteveCampen]

OMG no social reference to a show watched by millions.

[@SavanChandniGandecha]

***** I know it was like wow...

[@citywitt3202]

The only time I’ve been happy with someone missing a reference to Doctor Who.

[@kturn5953]

I HATED when the host asked for you to explain, like he was calling you out for being stupid or too silly or something! Even if it wasn’t a Doctor Who reference, he is literally beatboxing and doing wordplay, and Timey Wimey rolls off the tongue. So this host was being a brick wall in a room of creative flow. What a douche he was!

[@wdbaudio]

the timey wimey song ended up being like the best progressive house!

[@Gluttonforpeace]

Beardyman has basically embodied the musical genius lane for me for literally half of my life. Crazy.

[@MkosAceOnline]

I actually downloaded this years ago and everytime I am listening to this I cant believe what a rare gifted genius he is!

[@EvgenyAleshin]

The most underrated musical genius on the internet

[@Testimenta]

I was there for it all! :) He is INCREDIBLE! Really great guy and a genius machine.

[@ControlableInsanity]

Soon........soon beardyman will get the attention he deserves. He's the most talented and most innovated musician out there right now and Im surprised he hasn't yet become recognized for it....You tell somebody to create a song on the spot, you say here is the title, the genre, and I want it to be about this.....oh, and you know what, do it all with your mouth, make the beat with your mouth, but also improv some lyrics and make sure they rhyme yet go along with the song prefect....PLUS match your voice perfectly to the genre of the song, AND have amazing vocals to match.....and do this every time......GO!......lol......Nobody but beardyman.

[@SONGSTICKS]

ControlableInsanity He most certainly is the Dogs Bollocks and no mistake !Not only is he a fantastic musician as you say, but I believe he also designed the software that he uses because there was nothing out there commercially that did what he wanted it to do for his musical concept. Genius :0)

[@ResevoirGod]

ControlableInsanity He really is a genuine musical genius

[@NZyoutube]

It's just insane how the human mind works....... sadly only his! xD

[@IO279K4RMN]

why is the beginning written like an unhinged manifesto

[@GummiHuhn13]

timy wimy the 'cute time' escalated really quick into goa xD

[@shg9132]

Its funny how the songs made up on the spot are better than most of the songs Radio 1 plays

[@whatisiswhatable]

the fact that he does this so quickly and accurately is mind blowing

[@callumfromekr]

Loved Timey Wimey, goes in hard!!, BRILLIANT!!, he should so release it

[@seanflannery930]

Dude at 10:03 is coming down from a really bad trip

Beardy is at his best when not in those "high profile" word restricted stages.. the sub part of his brain keep shutting him off from trully flowing . it's all about the flow... example: check his full show from Udderbelly.

[@IIIErebusIII]

THE LEGEND OF THE BEARDYMAN!!!!

[@johanson9221]

I agree man!! 👌✊🏿👉🏻🦵🏽

I like how the audience at random times shake their head in disbelief that what they're watching is actually happening.

[@dizzytv4539]

Master of improvisation :)

[@THETBRETT]

I'm never surprised by Beardyman anymore, just in awe.

[@Th0rodin]

Not the craziest thing I've seen from this amazing genius, but still...damn, he is hitting aaaall the sexy domestic cats here :D I wanna see an EEG from him while live producing. His brain activity must be something to behold!
