Tiny Tim - Tiptoe Through the Tulips

Tiny Tim performing his song "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" live, originally released in 1968 and from the album "God Bless Tiny Tim."
More from Tiny Tim: • Tiny Tim's Greatest Hits
In 1968, Tiny Tim, known for his high-pitched singing, released a popular song called "Tip Toe through the Tulips." With just his ukulele, Tiny Tim sang this tune, and it became a hit. He even appeared on famous TV shows like Rowan and Martin’s Laugh In and the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. The song itself, written by Al Dubin and Joe Burke way back in 1929, was a big success then too, staying at number one on the charts for ten weeks. It's about wanting to meet someone in a tulip garden for a romantic kiss under the moonlight. Although it's not clear if the songwriters or Tiny Tim knew the meaning behind the tulip, in Victorian times and in funerals, tulips were seen as a symbol of love and passion. Unlike roses, tulips don't have thorns, and even after they're cut, they still keep growing, which is why they're often linked with everlasting life.

Tiny Tim, the singer known for playing the ukulele and signing old songs from the 1920s, was born as Herbert Khaury on April 12, 1932, in New York City. His father was Lebanese, and his mother was Jewish. He gew up in the Washington Heights area of Manhattan. Even though he dropped out of high school, Tiny Tim loved old music from the late 1800s to the 1930s. and wanted to be a singer. He learned to play the guitar and ukulele and started performing as "Larry Love" in the early 1950s. He often sang at a cabaret in Greenwich Village called Page 3. Despite his parents' disapproval, Tiny Tim kept singing the old songs he loved at small clubs, parties, and talent shows under different names. Sadly, Tiny Tim passed away on November 30, 1996.

My dog of 13 years has passed 1 week ago, my wife of 17 years was diagnosed with a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour, we lost our financial buffer and due to bankruptcy 3 of our largest clients couldn't pay their bills for projects we worked on for the past 2 years. We now owe over 50.000 euros just because we tried to avoid homelessness. We've spent the past 15 years building our careers, growing whilst always remaining honest. Turning down high-paying jobs we felt were inadequate because they abused people in need (lending companies that charge 1400% interest). It's hard to remain positive and not become bitter with all this happening. But the sound of your voice always sends me to another dimension where things are ok. Thank you for sharing your gift.

Rip to a man who said “Now the makeup and the white powder also came between '52 and '54. The reason for that was I had always looked at beautiful women, and I'm not saying 18. I'm saying 14, 15, 16, 17; that's when a beautiful girl can be so innocent and wonderful in her youth. But I had pure thoughts, I wouldn't dare bring up fornicating, but I thought if I married one like that, they would be an eternal princess forever and I would get to heaven. I looked for these women, and I still do today. "If I went out with a 14-year-old girl, I would definitely ask her parents' permission and bring her back the same way she left. I just want to take a look at that beauty, just like a vampire who wants to suck in the blood, but doesn't want to kill the victim."

I work in retail. I'm going to get a ukulele and learn this song. Whenever I have an angry customer, I'm just going to start playing and singing this. Same thing if my manager starts fussing at me.

[@raechelyndawn2580]

This is a perfect example of a person taking a huge risk and just being himself... no matter what. He was criticized, laughed at, judged and bullied yet his net worth at his passing was 3.6 million... more than many of the people who criticized him. Bless his heart... I admire him for pursuing a dream. ❤️
