The Sophisticated Song
As many of you already know Hugh Laurie was a fairly big star in the UK in the 80’s and 90’s. One of the shows on which he made his claim to fame was “A bit Fry and Laurie” a comedy series. He starred on that show for four seasons.
Now that Hugh is staring in House he’s probably an even bigger star in North America than he ever was in Britain. His fame has grown.
There are a number of short videos on the internet that show Hugh Laurie at his comedic best. Some of them show him singing songs that he wrote and composed himself. I believe that the “Sophisticated Song” is one that he created on it’s own.
The song has a bluesy groove to it, but the wording is all Hugh. Here it is, performed by the man himself:
Can’t seem to find his cool? Hey Hugh - I think your cool has come into it’s own. It’s your fans that are just sitting there drooling these days.
What did you think of that little tune? He’s got some talent doesn’t he? Lip trumpet? Smooth voice, and he plays guitar. Your hired Hugh.
