Tom Lehrer

Tom´s musical era started and ended before I was even born, but he still is one of my favorite musical artists. All he´s done truly is something worth remembering for generations. I know if I´m ever the type to have kids with the same sense of humor as I I´ll show them his work. Rest in peace, Tom

I met Tom back in 1982 when I called him and asked if I could meet him and get him to sign my two albums I had of his. He invited me to his house and we chatted for about an hour and he signed the albums for me. About three months ago, I called him to thank him for his kindness so many years ago. He was such a great human being. Will always cherish these memories.

A truly brilliant satirist and songwriter, he will be genuinely missed and remembered forever. We will miss you, Tom.

I still have his signed photos on my wall. I grew up with his music and looked up to him, and will always carry him and his music with me. RIP

I was and have been a long time fan of Mr. Lehrer his catchy songs and unique since of humor helped me get through most of middle and high-school having graduated in May of this year. I have never stopped recommending his music to my family and peers and doubt I ever will as little music has impacted me has much as his did.

Recently came across a long-forgotten 2010 CD and DVD compilation of his works. Still brilliant! Still unmatchable! Still relevant!

What a genius. His are the tunes stuck in my head on a given day. Thank you for all the laughs and word play. Rest in Peace.

Tom Lehrer was a part of the soundtrack of my youth. His albums were regularly played at home while I was a teenager, and I can still sing many of his songs (Vatican Rag, So Long, Mom) from memory. Thank you, Tom.

Between 1982 and 2002, I was able to find four of his albums. I have yet to know whether he had any single 78's or 45's. "Masochism Tango" is my favorite. Yes, I do like several more, I didn't look for 8-Tracks, but most probably would have bought them. Thanks to the Dr. Demento Show for introducing me to Tom Lehrer. I will YouTube more of his songs, as I have been for months. Now Tom is in that big classroom in the sky and I hope there is a tuned piano there to within his...
