When we hear you say "I thought it was going to be blasphemous..." and we know what's coming... 😂

[@RNDReacts]

Haha luckily I was mentally prepared 😂 I didn’t take any offence though, all of his points are completely logical and valid

[@Simon-hb9rf]

give them time, they will soon learn the ways of our lord and saviour tim minchin :)

[@abekane7038]

@@Simon-hb9rfStorm will be interesting

[@quinns4560]

tbf it's technically not blasphemous at all. blasphemy by definition is "sin" that only a believer in a particular faith can commit towards that faith and/or sky daddy of their choosing.

[@allotrope2978]

My exact thoughts. 😂

[@elbruces]

No one in the history of the world has been more thoroughly and grandiosely roasted than this Sam guy.

[@iansimons5553]

Maybe the reviewer Phil Doust, by the the lovely Tim.

[@Simon-hb9rf]

"a song for Phill doust" - that reaches a whole new level of petty vindictiveness and its hilarious

[@insertgenericusernamehere2402]

​@@iansimons5553his song about Cardinal penn is heavy too

[@joesephkroll2056]

Idk, Joan of arc?

[@joesephkroll2056]

​@@Simon-hb9rfhell yes, the phil song is pure gold.

[@Atheos-1]

Blasphemy is a victimless crime.

[@ThePixel1983]

The last two words of the lyrics show that this is just one epic, glamorous "your mom" joke. Also, criticism of unscientific beliefs, of course.

[@PianoDiary85]

Sam's still recovering from his burns 😅. There's sarcasm, and then there's Tim. As someone raised Christian some of his stuff used to make me a bit uncomfortable too, ,but the more you listen, ,the more you realise he's just...right 🤷‍♀. If you haven't watched Storm, I highly recommend that.

[@RNDReacts]

I feel you, I like how he’s not directly insulting God (he’s not literally cursing and swearing at God) rather he’s using the song as a way to ask logical questions that most people think, with a lot of sarcasm 😂

[@5Seed]

​@@RNDReacts the nice thing about tim is he doesn't care if you believe in something. It's when that crosses over into hurting others, rejection or logic/science and justification of crime, he will rip you apart.

[@awdrpepper]

​@RNDReacts Tim can also be very sweet and thoughtful. If you want to hear a completely different side of his music you should listen to "White wine in the sun".

[@supernovaleftover1812]

If you're vague enough, everything comes back to faith. If you care about the truth though, faith becomes near useless.

[@supernovaleftover1812]

P.S I think you might enjoy Nick Cave 'Into my arms'.

[@blackwolf721000]

I agree, people instinctively tend to prefer any answer to having none. So they convince themselves it's more reasonable to pick one answer with no evidence. That can create a problem in many cases, for when someone finds a different answer based on evidence, faith can make people reject that answer even though it is rationally better.

[@Bunny99s]

@@blackwolf721000 Right. I also think that "feeling uncomfortable" when listening to Tims song is a sign that a part does understand what Tim's saying and the other part is resisting. Many religious people never really ask themselfs why they believe in this particular god. Like Tim said "... the god you just happened to be taught to believe in ..."

[@spruce381]

I’m no believer, but visualisation seems to work - basically focussing on what you want.

[@ReedoTV]

I used to be a militant atheist when I was younger, but now I don't really care how many gods you believe in, I mostly care if you are a good person or not. Most of humanity tries to teach the best lessons and knowledge it has, regardless of religion or non-religion. I have hope for humanity because frankly it's amazing we got this far!

[@blakewalker84120]

17:00 "Imagine if Sam and his mum watched this." They're not real. Tim told how "Sam" is a made-up character but is based on countless conversations that he and other atheists have had with Christians over the years. This was the 2nd time Tim performed this. The night before, he screwed up the lyrics of this tremendously complex song. That's why his audience doesn't know this song - they've never heard it before. It's also why he gives that little cheer at the end; he was super relieved he got through it this time.

[@diamonds9120]

I think it would be really cool if y'all reacted to "White Wine in the Sun". It's like... him dropping the sarcasm and the artifice and just laying out his feelings. It's a really touching song.

[@jacquimott386]

Dark side (awesome version) is great, “Lullaby” and then “White wine in the sun” might give a bit broader view of Tim’s work.

[@jemxs]

Oh definitely!!!

[@gabbymcclymont3563]

Also his poem STORM is wonderful.

[@jacqf3583]

Being in a live audience for this is epic - you can tell how many people haven't heard it by the awkward silence before the reveal

[@koki84ji7]

Lol. Tim has another song for you called Storm. He explains how all the "energy" bull works.😂😂😂

[@RNDReacts]

I see you found our reaction to storm 😂

[@jancason8011]

Tim Minchin is brilliant!!! ''Thank you God'' is so funny, so sarcastic, and unfortunately, so true. I was lucky enough to see the musical "Jesus Christ SuperStar" some years ago in Melbourne, and Tim played the role of Judas. Best Judas I have seen, ever. He just nailed it. We were lucky to have seats only about 10 rows from the stage, so could watch it all in person, rather than having to watch it on one of the big screens the theatre had up for people further back and upstairs. I shall spend the rest of the evening listening to his songs. Perfect night.

[@maintenanceman4800]

Yeah! Sam's Mom watch this for the first time.. That's a reaction I would loved to have seen.

[@annina134]

Tim is logical and critical of things like "miracles" and such. That is what I love about him. He uses his brain and to be honest I think it's a thing people tend to forget to use in todays world.

[@jenniferanderson1499]

Great reaction! How much rehearsal does it take him to get his tongue around all those consonants and syllables? Extraordinary.

[@jackwhitbread4583]

The language used was intentional, Tim wanted to write a song that fully showcased his wide range of vocabulary and this is the song. Sam is not a real person and while it does reflect his views on religion this song is more about language than anything else.

[@deviouskris3012]

The “it’s a miracle” is Tim commenting on the fact he managed to do the song without screwing up the lyrics.

[@wendycohen9038]

Tim moved back to Australia 5-6 years ago. He still tours with his band, wrote, directed and starred in the award winning TV series Upright, and helped to get the Australian production of Groundhog Day (he did music and lyrics) on its feet. He's also been on loads of podcasts. Busy man.

[@deviouskris3012]

Saw him a little over a month ago at a small gig at the Gold Coast. He said he only wants to do smaller gigs these days. Fantastic show.

[@Bushranger28]

Nice reaction, you guys should also check out Dark side (Awesome version).

[@NebraskaGonvilleJones]

You are both beautiful souls with good hearts. I really appreciate your candour open thoughts and honesty. The world would be better with more thinking humans like both of you in it. While I am staunchly atheist I think both of you are amazing 😊

[@zamorak6789]

Tim doesn't have anything against people being religious, so the song isn't necessarily about the power of prayer or disproving religion (although you'd be forgiven for getting that idea), it was more about Sam challenging Tim's world view, and Sams evidence being "god healed my mom." Tim spends the whole song giving a dozen different reasonable explanations for how it could've happened, and his point is that any of those are far more likely than a "all powerful magician" in his words healing your mom of a common, curable problem.

[@jemxs]

One of my very favourite tim performances!! Love it! I really doubt that there is a Sam in real life, just a clever way of introducing the topic imo. Lullaby is fantastic, especially if you have kids! Storm is brilliant, live not the animated version! 10ft Cock and a Few Hundred Virgins and The Good Book for more religious thoughts by Tim!

[@dedriesmith7789]

I think you love storm ,its so good.glad you dont take tim to seriously.hes great.

[@dunbar9finger]

If you do take Tim seriously, Storm is even better. His complaint in it is 100% spot on legit.

[@dedriesmith7789]

Have to agree with that .haha

[@stevebrown661]

I think your definition of God(whichever) as a placebo effect is very accurate

[@sandgroperwookiee65]

Loved yours reaction👍... But you need to check volume levelling. Could hardly hear Tim...& that was on my TV & phone. Just a thought 👍 ✌️🇦🇺

[@simonwood5216]

yes it was a bit low

[@dunbar9finger]

I've seen reactors put the embedded video at low volume like that and usually it's part of trying to avoid the copyright bots.

[@blitzofchaosgaming6737]

@@dunbar9finger They could just follow the law and ask for permission. But no, they choose to make bad and illegal content.

[@neilt6480]

6:55 Nailed it! Great job, especially if you've only seen a couple of Tim's songs.

[@ksay7649]

He nails the farce of religion, great reactions

[@terryfall8915]

No amount of belief makes anything a fact.

[@Zaphnochs]

I think the best Tim Minchin song is WWitS. White Wine in the Sun. Quintessential Australian. Simple and touching. The 2021 one is just after his dad had died. He also did a performance recently, of WWitS the day after his mum died. Perhaps as a way to honour her.

[@JimmyJamJack]

Dude, you sound soooo much like Marvin from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Nice deep voice on ya

[@ThePixel1983]

So like Alan Rickman?

[@JimmyJamJack]

@@ThePixel1983 no, I was thinking the 80s BBC version (the "correct" one to watch lol)

[@GaryNoone-jz3mq]

Sorry guys. It's just to low, volume wise, for me to hear it properly.😢

[@ros2456]

Yes their voices are much, much louder than the video of Tim. Had to turn the volume up to 100% to hear it and then turn it back down each time they spoke.

people think Em & 50 are petty....Tim literally orchestrated a public roast of Sam.

[@HenrikJansson78]

I think the dictionaries should just have a link to this under the word "sarcasm". :)

[@joshua-we9xr]

Tim wrote all the music for the Musical "Matilda". Bro is crazy talented.

[@gailseatonhumbert]

Interesting discussion. Tim is a very scientific guy. His Matilda is great. When I Grow Up and Revolting Children are particularly well known and now that you have some idea of how Tim thinks it should be particularly fun for you.

[@Themata]

At 13:35 it's not lightweight to Sam. Poor guy's had a whole song written to take the absolute piss out of him 🤣

May I suggest Tim Minchins Drinking White Wine in the Sun? It's actually the most beautiful Christmas song I've ever heard. Love to you both from Australia ❤❤❤

[@simonwood5216]

Ha ha, nice reaction guys, very honest and thoughtful. Love this Tim song. I saw him in concert a few days ago in Perth his (and my) home town - he is a very entertaining, funny, intelligent and talented person. He is excellent live too and yes you are right his piano skills are amazing especially live in concert.

[@simonwood5216]

For something a bit different (for Tim) you could try 'White Wine in the Sun' a lovely song.

[@peterdubois65]

Flew over from Melbourne to catch him in perth on the 23rd. Met Tim and he signed his autograph with long-haired lefty joker and I had it copied into a tattoo

[@wheredidthetimego8087]

Just to let you know you might want to turn your volume up a little more. I could hear you guys fine but the video you were watching was very low.

[@RNDReacts]

Thanks for that we’ll make sure to double check our sound settings before recording

[@tinamardt7734]

Lullaby is also good from Tim Minchin

[@coreenavenn4235]

Tim's the son of a surgeon and is very much a believer in science. Tim's mother died in December after battling leukaemia for many years. Why did Sam's mum need a Dr at all when she had faith?

[@diamonds9120]

I'm enjoying y'all's reactions, but I gotta push back on what you said at 20:45. I think yeah, these days there's a lot more social and societal pressure to respect people's opinions, but there's a huge difference between not respecting someone and disagreeing with them. I think that the shift towards offering other people a baseline level of respect is a good thing, so long as everyone is willing to engage in discussion about their disagreements in good faith.

[@capablancauk]

Everyone thinks they are going to win the lottery. So it is a miracle when one person does. Look at the odds of that one person winning. Statically bad.

[@TheDylls]

You guys have to watch the song Cont and the beat poem Storm from Minchin ❤

not at an individual level i've seen things that make be believe that there could be an intelligent design of our existence... but from everything else i've experienced i don't believe in these organized religions. my perspective is that you ought to do your best to be a good person in eyes of your living and past loved ones, friends, and peers. it's far more complicated than that but it's a good starting point imo.

[@ElroyMF1]

He's an amalgam of several experiences he's had with fans.

[@Myrkish]

6:37 Not sure why you thought that was a positive end to the story, he was being sarcastic. He said he asked for _evidence_ and what he got was some random story with no evidence. Basically, it was a joke about critical thinking.

[@RNDReacts]

At that point I didn’t realise just how sarcastic he was being as he was sounding extremely genuine, but obviously as the song develops we realise more

[@garfnob4832]

"people hear about people being healed by this godly force" - people hear claims about healing. you keep focusing on the "but god dos all the other bad things" the bigger problem is all the things that explain the case better. as stated in the song "it couldn't be mistaken attribution of causation" some known phenomenon that could explain this... -confirmation bias -groupthink -an emperor's new clothes-style fear of exclusion -spontaneous remission -a record-keeping glitch this is just some know to exist things that can explain the missing cataract. no magic needed. the supernatural has been disproven as thoroughly anything can be. every time it is tested it fails.

[@donepearce]

It is very uncomfortable listening to two people talking about magic as if it were real.

[@RNDReacts]

Haha, would you rather that only atheists listened to this song?

[@donepearce]

@@RNDReacts Not at all. Theists need it far more urgently than I do. But understanding is far more important than just listening.

[@RNDReacts]

@@donepearce I feel you, I enjoyed listening to this song, as it really puts into perspective how many atheists may feel about the idea of God, it’s not so much that they don’t want to believe but rather like how Tim raises very valid points, considering all the issues he mentioned existing on the Earth with a God that is omnipotent, omnipresent and omni benevolent, does seem very contradictory, We understood from his perspective, and I think this song is really good for creating these discussions, and creating good questions around belief systems,

[@donepearce]

@@RNDReacts I have no problem with people believing in gods, although I would obviously rather they stayed with things there is actually some evidence for. But like Tim, I have a deep hatred for churches that organise and impose their laws on ordinary people, particularly children. All branches of Christianity tell children about hell, and that is child abuse of the worst kind. I would implore you to think about this and consider the illogicality of what you believe, and leave it in the mediaeval past where it belongs. But I wish you the best should you undertake this moral journey.

[@laalki80]

It's like surviving a hurricane and thanking your god for saving you while everyone else in the church died. A bit self-centered.

[@zoecove9836]

Just so I understand it, you feel a small group of people praying for one person’s healing can work a miracle but a million people praying for a child to be healed from cancer, or to end world hunger, or to end a war doesn’t work? Huh. I guess you really do have do pray to a particular version of a particular deity.
