Avicii - I'm Tim

This documentary showcases his most iconic tracks. It reached out, grabbed my heart and left me with a lump in my throat. Heartbreaking.

A beautiful tribute, and I'm glad they documented part of his life (one cannot capture everything). To be "successful" carries so much weight, one never knows how heavy it is on the heart and the burden it brings to the soul.

There are those who keep the status quo and give audiences what they are used to, and that's ok. Then there is the rarity, like Tim, who will give what the audiences expect but will then slowly educate and open their musical minds and tastes to new sounds. He was a true creative, one who goes beyond their comfort zone to break through EDM's borders by mixing different styles. A true artist.

I'm not a fan. I like a handful of his songs, but this documentary made me understand the greatness of Avicii and the impact of his music.

I mostly enjoy rock and soul music. After watching this documentary, the creativity of this young man truly resonated with me and completely changed my perspective on his music.

But most importantly, it showed his pure soul and how his music truly came from the heart.

I'm a relatively older man, and the mindset of this young guy made me reflect deeply and wipe the tears from my face.

Whenever I listen to his music, I'll remember that I need to become a better person.

As a Fan of Electronic music especially Progressive House this Doc is a real treat. From an amateur kid from Sweden making house music on FL studio to an international star EDM producer/DJ making the world go Dance. It shows the good times and the bad times...The evolution of his music is remarkable from House to including country influence to his signature tunes. His studio sessions as a producer is so fascinating to watch. Fame and the EDM Life unfortunately took its toll on Tim. The happiness we see in the beginning became a curse in the end. From a Fan's perspective I see this Film as a celebration of his Life and his music.

I just finished watching the documentary 'Avicii: I'm Tim', and it struck me deeply. As someone who has spent her entire life coming to terms with the reality that I'll always live with anxiety, I felt so connected to his experiences. It's a lonely journey when your mind is constantly in overdrive - questioning everything and rarely finding peace.

As a society, we must do better. We need to actively work toward destigmatising mental health struggles and creating spaces where people feel supported and understood, not shamed, for seeking help.

This quote from the documentary shook me because it mirrored so much of what I feel:

"But my dream would be to be completely, completely at ease and completely happy with what I've got already, and not really have any aspirations to do a billion other things. I just want to be free from all the ideas of a life. The thing that has kept me from living life has been that exact thing: having an idea of what life should be and what should make me happy.

Nothing has turned out to be true. But I want to learn how to be content. That would be life for me. Being content."

These words hit home in a way I can't fully describe. So often, we're trapped in this endless pursuit of what we think life is supposed to be, only to realise that the pressure to chase a perfect life - one that doesn't even exist - leaves us feeling more lost than ever.

We need to do better. Let's talk about this more. Let's remind each other that we're not alone.

I had the privilege to listen Tim on Ultra Europe in Croatia two times. He always put a great show, it was remarkable. I also have to say that I know literally every song he made, I used to love house music and EDM, and I still do, but I was rather a fan of Hardwell or maybe Laidback Luke, but never Avicii's and I must admit that I don't know why. Maybe there were songs that were to repetetive so I was annoyed, but I remember when I heard the news about his death, I felt so bad for him and everyone closest to him.

Also, after seeing this documentary, it definitely showed me who Tim really was and who he really wasn't. After seeing couple of minutes of this film, you could clearly see that he wasn't made to be on that stage in that kind of a way, If you know what I mean. He was not ready, like he said - he was too stiff so he had to drink to cope with all this energy and madness. He was a big talent and such a great artist, he will never fade away. Some of his songs reminds me of my past, my growing with certain people, such a nostalgia in this documentary.

The ending crushed me, I even let my tears to come out because I can't understand why he didn't find purpose in his life afterall, to even took his own life. Such a tragedy. You could clearly see how fragile he was, how he wasn't prepared for all the fame that came along, and sadly no one could help him. Avicii took Tim away from this life...He was so down to earth and that is very rare to see nowdays...

I felt sadness seeing this documentary and I wanted to know him better through this film, and all I can say is that he was clearly such a beautiful soul.

I hope he found peace, and only he knows what really happened and what was going through his head. Such a shame that he couldn't share that with anyone.

Tim, you are missed.
