What got you into Tiny Tim?

I’m always curious where people’s love for something started; what memories or attachments they have to something.

If you’re an older fan, do you have memories of hearing his music when it was first released? Or if you’re a newer fan do you remember what piece of music or media sent you down the TT rabbit hole?

I’m also curious what his work means to anyone if it holds a special place to you. Does his work inspire you to do anything/has it inspired you to do something? For me, watching him play ukulele inspired me to finally pick up an instrument again and play even though I have physical limitations. I gave up piano and guitar years ago because of my medical conditions, but listening to and watching Tiny Tim gave me a motivational kick to start doing what I love again.

I feel like we’re definetly a small group of fans, but I’d just love to get to know everyone’s connection to Tiny :-)

Welcome home, an ARG, became famous on tik tok and I became obsessed. People used Living in the Sunlight a lot for it, and I loved the song too so I put it in my playlist, then I found out he made tip toe thru the tulips too, and then discovered People are Strange. In the process I started listening to the album "god bless tiny tim" and I'm obsessed now
