Tim Minchin
Do you know comedian/musician/philosopher Tim Minchin? If you do, you will be chiding me for taking so long to discover him. If not, drop everything. Watch at least a couple of these.
Maybe start here?
Then maybe move on to an eco-awareness song (that takes the piss out of activist rock stars)?
And a song about “Prejudice, the language of prejudice, and the power of the language of prejudice”, with regard to that one taboo word:
A ten minute jazz-backed beat poem about critical thinking? (No, trust me, watch this):
And round it out with an immensely touching piece that has immediately become my favorite Christmas song. Of all time.
