Meanwhile, unbeknownst to whomever is doing the kicking out, I and a large group of people are queued up out side with picket signs ready to immediately protest loudly and in grand fashion. Maybe someone has a megaphone. Someone definitely has a megaphone. We occupy, protesting and chanting until we clear out the bar, then we peace out.

Kaufman traverses depths here few dare enter. He addresses the primal symbiotic nature of a relationship gone sour. He dredges up pain and suffering that is hard to watch, yet one can not look away. His catharsis is subtle, yet strikes as a sledgehammer. Andy Kaufmans performance of "I trusted you" is like looking at the sun. Illuminating, blinding at that same time. As tears stream down my face. I think...YES I understand!!!

I like the part where he trusted me.

What he's done here is beautiful. It's a social commentary about innocence lost. There are relationships formed by the passage of time that call for honesty and acceptance of every bit of who the person on the other end is. Who are we but the amount of trust we can give? If that significant other hurts us, all we can do is proclaim these words. "I trusted you."

So good. Could be said he was ahead of his time but there hasn't been anyone since that does this as distinctly. Kaufman was the master at messing with the audience, within 90 seconds they're clapping along to this 'song'. Throw in the Elvis dancing, being asked back for an encore (of course all part of it), pointing at the guitarists as he sings and the possibly planted screaming girls; brilliant sketch. And he only had to write three lines.

Idk the first time I saw it I laughed out loud once he started really over the top dancing and screaming. Andy was one of the pioneer and better satirist. His whole career was based on mocking people and what they like to their face. I just like his attitude, he was an experimental comic and not everything is gonna be gold. I didn't really care for Latka which is his more "famous" bit. The Kaufman-Lawler stuff was genius, not hysterical but genius none the less.
