Tom Lehrer, a musical satirist par excellence, has left us. We are not all going together, Prof. Lehrer, but part of me goes with you. nytimes.com/2025/07/27/art…

Very sad to learn of the passing of the brilliant and biting Tom Lehrer at 97. Even though he stopping writing and performing satirical songs a half century or more ago, I derived great joy knowing that he still walked among us. His work will forever remain the gold standard.

Very upset to hear of the passing of Tom Lehrer at the age of 97. I sang and performed this song at my high schools talent show when I was 15. All the teachers stood there aghast, then everyone laughed like hell. An absolute genius and one of my favourite satirists ever.

RIP Tom Lehrer. National Brotherhood Week as X theme tune?

Tom Lehrer’s song about World War III still holds up over sixty years later.

RIP Tom Lehrer. It doesn’t get funnier than this

An #Otwituary for musical satirist of the 50s-60s #TomLehrer There’s comedy and parody and levity and melody, Alacrity, sagacity and mockery and repartee, There’s plenty of absurdists and they come at ten-a-penny. There may be one as sharp as him but I can’t think of any.

Very sad news. My mother played Lehrer's songs to me when I was a small boy; & I sang them to my 2 daughters. One of them learnt The Elements off by heart when still at school. 'We'll All Go Together When We Go' was my favourite. Only now we won't, as Tom has preceded us!

Tom Lehrer said "Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger won the Nobel peace prize."

I’m as sad as it’s possible to be about the death of a 97-year-old. Tom Lehrer was (to paraphrase the great man) my hero since childbirth, and revisiting his songbook on stage remains one of the highlights of my career. A unique polygenius. Rest In Poison.

My parents had Tom Leher's albums and I was obsessed with them as a kid. Here's a partial list of things I learned about listening to his songs over and over again: Wernher Von Braun, Gustav Mahler, Alma Mahler-Werfel, the Periodic Table, Nuclear Proliferation, Hubert Humphrey,

Farewell to an explorer, a pioneer, a Spaceman - Jim Lovell has gone. Ad astra.

Dear #cpfc fans, This is how long it would have taken Steve Parish to find out what the UEFA rules were around MCO’s and ask for legal advice on them in order to take action One minute excluding spelling mistakes! Parish is either lying to you about emails and conspiracy
