Songs & Music: Hugh Laurie -- Let Them Talk the album


Image from livejournal

It's not MIDNIT --  Metabolic, Inflammation, Degenerative, Neoplastic, Infection and Trauma, not psychological, not environmental, not arsenic, not heavy-metal poisoning, but it may well be genetic, it's Dr. House's music! IT'S Huge Laurie Blues!!!!

In the show, we see Dr. House playing many musical instruments -- electric guitar, acoustic guitar, harmonica, piano, harmonica and piano at the same time, he is super talented!!!! Watch the video playlist below:


Many fans are in awe of his musical talent and want to get a hold of some music from him, I'm definitely a fan of Blues and Hugh, and now we have a chance!!!!

The Album is called Let Them Talk, and it will be on sale from the 7th May in the U.K. Not sure when it will arrive in Hong Kong, but you don't have to wait too long to hear it! It is officially on YouTube and can also be found in our English Playground YouTube Channel,


what's more, Hugh is very generous to share with everyone one of his best songs, Guess I'm a Fool, in MP3 format, 100% legal and free! (And the lyrics definitely fit my situation now)

You can download it from his official website: http://www.hughlaurieblues.com/free-downloads/guess-im-a-fool.htm

Can't wait to share my happiness with everyone and thank him on his website! Here's what I wrote

"Hugh, I'm a big fan of you since Blackadder, and you are incredible in House, hope there will be a season 8,9 and 10. You are the coolest! You have my greatest support! Can't wait for your CD. Best wishes from Hong Kong!"

One of my juniors said I sounded 'gay', I don't care! I'm a big fan! Who wouldn't be, with a gift like this?

Lyrics:

Hugh Laurie
Guess I'm A Fool lyrics

You told me you were leaving
After all we've been through
Guess I'm fool falling in love with you
There ain't no use in crying
Do what you have to do
Guess I'm a fool falling in love with you.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hugh_laurie/guess_im_a_fool.html ]
[Chorus:]
You told me that the kind of love we have
Will last for a million years
I believe everything you said
You felt my heart with tears.
So long pretty baby
Go break some other heart in two
Guess I'm a fool falling in love with you.

[Chorus:]
You told me that the kind of love we have
Will last for a million years
I believe everything you said
You felt my heart with tears.
So long pretty baby
Go break some other heart in two
Guess I'm a fool falling in love with you.

Falling in love with you,
Falling in love with you
Falling, falling in love with you
