* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Much of his discography has become quite hard to find. The most notable example of course is his 1989 album ''Leave Me Satisfied'', of which only a handful of vinyl copies exist and naturally demand very high prices online.

* OneHitWonder: He is best known for "Tip-toe Through The Tullips". Younger listeners may only be familiar with "Living In The Sunlight, Loving In The Moonlight" ([[RevivalByCommercialization due to its usage on Spongebob]]) which might make him a two-hit wonder in that regard.

* CreatorBacklash: He hated "The Coming Home Party" on ''God Bless Tiny Tim'' (probably not coincidentally, it happened to be the most [[TheSixties '60s]]-sounding song on the album).
** He also loathed ''With Love and Kisses From Tiny Tim: Concert in Fairyland'', an album scraped together from old demo tapes he'd recorded years earlier and released to cash in on his newfound fame.
