He is often referred to as "The Quiet Genius." He not only plays the piano; he is a multi instrumentalist, composer, author, actor, comedian. The list goes on.
I married this man as a child watching House before going to school and I'm proud to say I still consider him my husband still even after all these years when I've graduated from University 🤣🥰
various Well the original "swanee river" song was about a slave sold to a plantation from an other one where he was raised and missing his family and friends but in this case most of those lyrics are left out
Hugh, my wife and I love your work and we know how easy it is to change an accent for a role, but you have succeeded better than most. We applaude your honesty in your music more than anything, though we will never know or meet you, you have our respect and admiration for your devotion to your roles and to yourself. Best of luck and our wishes.
Hugh Laurie is a wonderful actor, musician, writer, screenwriter. Thank you Dr. House for your work. A wonderful series. Thanks for your musical work. Hugh Laurie you are wonderful, cool ...
Laurie told a tale that when he was a lad, he took piano lessons, he patiently went through a book of songs, because he wanted to play Swanee River, which was at the very end. His teacher turned the page, made some dismissive remark about 'syncopation' and went on to the next book. Laurie was so disappointed, he decided to take his musical education into his own hands. He did rather well.
You never know! Another "dr."actor can also play instruments:David McCallum player oboe and English horn. He also sang with Nancy Sinatra and on his own when he was younger.
I was lucky enough to catch Hugh Laurie & his Copper Bottom Band in Portland Oregon about 7 years ago. Good times! Especially love this song. You know he's a talented musician watching Jeeves & Wooster, he played piano and the banjo-lini! 💕

I saw this this great artist for the first time while I was still behind the iron curtain. The iron curtain is falling again yet this great artist keeps being great. thank you Sir.
This song always brings joy to my heart! You can see his passion for this particular song and the blues music in general! Love it and can't wait for the special edition.
How many of you Americans know that Hugh Laurie, is a well spoken Englishman? He's down in the Guiness book of records as the highest paid actor, ever, in a TV drama, HOUSE
This is beautiful MrHughL!!! I was looking uo literary figure James Agee who's mom had s summer cottage by the Sewanee River...and a fascinating growing up he had in the region... And find your GEM of the old blues omg thanks!!!!
A quiet genius I've always thought so, hes never overconfident even tho hes really quite brilliant and hes always slightly overshadowed by the equally brilliant Mr Fry, it's not until you see moment like this that you see it...understated genius.
Me me me! My old VCR tape recording of the documentary finally rewound its last rewind, so I came here look to around. Surprising to find so many fellow genius's with such brilliant taste.
For some reason every time I watch Hugh Laurie it is as if I see I familj member. House MD is the the tv show I watched most times of anything. Even though, sometimes I get confused, is it Hugh or House that is family. He sure know his music as well. Incredible talented.
When you drive from Georgia to Florida as you go across the Suwanee River there’s a sign that has the song on it and we would always sing it. I really like your version its like three songs in one. 😎
Even if you are a superstar like you could become to have played Doctor House, you know be at your place between all these musicians and with smile please. 😍
His voice is very blues/jazz and I love it! And I can't tag on my phone, but riffism, Hugh was famous on the British acting circuit waaaaaay before he was a tv star
Really nice reconstruction of environment. Both people and room are matching - I miss the sentimental atmosphere in "Old Folks at Home" by Stephen Foster
I will never get sick of hearing this song. It’s in my top 5. I’ve loved it since that one episode of The Honeymooners. (You’ll know which one if you’ve seen it) 😁
What’s funny is that I was just singing this song out of nowhere cause it popped up in my head out of nowhere as I learned it as a small child going to Elementary School and growing up in Fort Lauderdale and come to find out I look it up on You Tube and find this Bad Ass revamp from Dr. House who would have Think it!
Never knew that Dr House could rock a Piano like this.
He is often referred to as "The Quiet Genius." He not only plays the piano; he is a multi instrumentalist, composer, author, actor, comedian. The list goes on.
Despite he did in the series several times?
Did you never see" A Bit of Frye and Laurie" he plays and sings a lot in that. Not just piano
I'll always remember him as the prince from Black Adder
Why did it take me 12 years to find out about this man's musical skill???
Welcome aboard . you think this is awesome? you would of loved it live:)
Why indeed, great musician, one of a kind. So many talents in one man, amazing !
I married this man as a child watching House before going to school and I'm proud to say I still consider him my husband still even after all these years when I've graduated from University 🤣🥰
You know I wish I could have been in the crowd for this. He did an amazing job everyone did an amazing job
I love him, he can act, sing, and play instruments, what a genius😍😍😚😚
Hei, agreee! :))) I like this music but I do not exactly understand the lyrics. Is it about longing for the past?
various Well the original "swanee river" song was about a slave sold to a plantation from an other one where he was raised and missing his family and friends but in this case most of those lyrics are left out
And diagnose too.
That's exactly what I think too. He is perfect. 😂😂♥️♥️♥️♥️
@Dorottya Dávid fond memories of checking out the gun seller.
Modern day Renaissance Man, comedian, actor, musician.... and all round good man 👌 go forth and multiply young man
I love all kinds of music, but never appreciated the blues until Hugh Laurie. He's fantastic. Thank you, House

Could hardly agree more!
He DEFINITELY does not have a Southern Accent BUT he can still sing the Blues ❤

You never know! Another "dr."actor can also play instruments:David McCallum player oboe and English horn. He also sang with Nancy Sinatra and on his own when he was younger.
That makes me like him more
How not to teach piano, see this example.

Truly a gifted artist of many varieties. Not many in that category. He is one of a kind really. Kudos Hugh, you made it. 😊
perhaps 'two of a kind', if you include Dudley Moore
This is beautiful MrHughL!!!
I was looking uo literary figure James Agee who's mom had s summer cottage by the Sewanee River...and a fascinating growing up he had in the region...
And find your GEM of the old blues omg thanks!!!!
this man is a genius.
this is a cover of an American civil war song
He is a genius

First 'Dr. House', then 'Let them talk' and now 'It didn't rain'... we need more!
you are late it's 2021 now
Love this man! My dad would’ve loved his music. He used to call this kind of music Dixieland music or Cajun music
Great band , love the piano . What a transformation from your early days in acting . Great stuff Hugh.
Didn't know Hugh Laurie was a blues singer.i knew he was a amazing actor.he is gifted.
Ear candy. Thank you Buda for giving us Hugh Laurie. Also like to mention the seven, the old gods, the red God and Haile Selassie.
I think I'm gonna smash the replay button today 😃❤
Hugh is outstanding on piano 😭
Now that's blues ... love this one!
#MyMusicHangout
Didn't realize he was a musician
David D and a good one too ... also singer ;-)
His debut album "Let Them Talk" is good indeed.
Pietro Branca yes it is.
Wonderful rendition. Have added to my Pump You Up playlist on Spotify.
I’m not sure whether I like the actor or the musician more. Damn he’s good. ❤
Never knew you sang and played the piano! Wow.....love it. Very soothing to the soul. I'll look to put it on my play list. You are truly gifted.
Furthermore he plays drums, saxophone, guitar, mouth harmonica as well.
I am not terribly familiar with your work as an actor, but; as a musician you blow my mind away
A blues cover of my state anthem? I love it!
When you drive from Georgia to Florida as you go across the Suwanee River there’s a sign that has the song on it and we would always sing it. I really like your version its like three songs in one. 😎
Thank you for sharing. I'm still buying the CD and l.p. 😎😎😎
