Spoilt for choice

I was seeking out the lyrics to Hugh Laurie's excellent song 'Mystery' today, and one of the sites Google found me proclaimed:

Our HUGH LAURIE Section contains all the songs you could possibly want.

A proud boast, and perhaps also rather a bold one, given that their HUGH LAURIE section contains... no songs. Now, I'm no great music buff, but even I, when trying to imagine how many songs I could possibly want, tend on the whole to go for a number in excess of nought. Still, even if this was a little disappointing, they were about to win me right back on side with a truly astonishing offer.

  1. I'll happily give you the lyrics of "Mystery" for no charge, John. When I was but a small boy it was one of my party pieces, before I started writing my own material and realised that I was not, in fact, Hugh Laurie. So I can also give you the chords if that's at all helpful.

  2. Oh, I love that song. Know most of it by heart. Could you send me the chords, James?

  3. I'll dig them out for you James. The original's in G minor, which I transposed down to E minor to suit my youthful vocal chords. Because I was not, in fact, Hugh Laurie.

  4. Update: If you yourself are looking for the lyrics, they can be found under the post 'The Mysterious 'Mystery' Mystery', August 2006.
