The Man Who Could Smell Murder - Lesson #4

[@dadalo5]

Sniff me Sir Bearnard 🤣🤣
Love how you've worked it into Making a Man. I constantly get the Splisbury verse and it's reprise later stuck in my head, moreso than any other part of the musical I think

So, ive never met Brian (in the drawer), but (as a volunteer) i saw and 'dealt' with a pathology specimen Spilsbury preserved...it was a weird privilege to be able to engage and be part of that bit of history. Faulty but fascinating (as were so many if his era and earlier 😬)

[@marylamb2130]

Always loved this song. So clever! Genius. I defy anyone to do better!

[@joshmore7175]

Its so weird to see thai song now that it's so different

[@Reticence9zen924]

I'm listening to the soundtrack on streaming- it's funny that this song isn't in the final cut.

[@katticusclaw]

it kind of is??? it's just been adapted a whole bunch, its in making a man, and obviously spilsbury's reprise

A slight exaggeration I think, he had actually lost his sense of smell, which was just as well when you think of some of the smells of rotting flesh he was exposed to. What you've said in the video is incorrect. The song itself sounds like a poor clone of a Leslie Bricusse style of song.

A personal relative of his?

[@thecomputingchronicles]

@@Dajave11 yes

I appreciate you’re annoyed by the inaccuracies (in a comedy song?!) but the ‘poor clone’ comes across like sour grapes.
