Avicii - I'm Tim

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.

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.

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.

So firstly, a great documentary. It started off great and he really did come across as a nice guy, and we all know at least one or two of his songs. However,

we know most of that already and this would have been a great opportunity to explain to the audience more of his struggles, how bad were the drugs and drinking what friends were not the right type around him, why did the manager leave and not speak to Tim was it over money and lack of loyalty.

Lastly, although personal but if your doing a documentary we just needed a better understanding of such an early death how bad it really was or was this not explained due to the guilt of the people around him who never done enough.

My only glaring observation is this documentary didn't go deep enough. It needed more exploration, more explanation and just more..... It never really climaxed and we're not learning anything new here that wasn't already known through the internet; Really disappointed to be honest. It did nothing for me.

It did a good job, however of documenting Tim's climb, but not so much his downfall, making the documentary a bit one sided. Maybe I was just expecting something more comprehensive? I'm not sure what they were trying to achieve with making this documentary. Was it just an intention to only shed light on his music career and portray him in that light? That's what it seems like to me.
