Hugh Laurie on the Jay Leno Show

Here’s the two-part Hugh Laurie interview with Jay Leno that aired a few days ago. It starts off with a very funny discussion of sitting styles. :-)

They discussed the season premiere of House and how the success makes Hugh nervous. Hugh even talks a bit about the snakes photo shoot. It’s a fun clip:

Here’s the second part of the Hugh Laurie interview and in it, he plays the piano and sings a song for us. He also dispels the rumor that he would leave the show (thank goodness!!) It’s a classic:

OMG- how could I have missed the song??? I saw the interview, but not all of it, and I must have fallen asleep and forgotten to set my DVR to record it. Thank goodness for Youtube.

I play piano, guitar, mandolin, and a few other instruments, and I play pretty much all jazz and blues. St. James Infirmary is one of my favorite songs, and is in my set list of songs I play frequently. Love it. I agree with something Hugh said awhile back in another interview. Someone asked him who his favorite musician was and he said “Dr. John. Begins and ends.” I agree :)
