After signing a contract with Warner Bros, Laurie released a blues album Let Them Talk , which was released initially in France on April 18, 2011 and later in the UK on May 9th.
He has written one novel, "The Gun Seller," and another one, "The Paper Soldier," is tentatively scheduled for September 2009. Mr. Laurie has some musical talent, notably the piano and mouth trumpet (he can make convincing trumpet sounds using just his mouth). He played '20s numbers on the piano in the TV series "Jeeves and Wooster" (again with Stephen Fry) in addition to some original comic songs in "A Bit Of Fry & Laurie." He is currently a member of "Band from TV" with several other TV personalities. He is married with children, although he has become somewhat of an absentee father due to his work on American television while his family stays in London.
Wild Honey
Hugh Laurie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
Makes me feel like twice the man I used to be
Wild honey, wild honey
Well it don't take but a crack
To drop on the kingdom
Don't take but a queen
I'm a jack of all trades, master of none
I am the one who's gonna get all the fun done
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
She loves you, she loves you, she loves you
I'll never love a girl
She loves you, she loves you, she loves you
Cut down in the wall, you really ought to see
That is the way, wild honey's supposed to be
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
Well it don't take but a crack
To drop on the kingdom
Don't take but a queen
To make that kingdom come
I'm a jack of all trades, master of none
I am the who's gonna get all the fun done
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
Wild honey, wild honey, wild honey
She loves you, she loves you, she loves you
I'll never love a girl
She loves you, she loves you, she loves you.
The song "Wild Honey" by Hugh Laurie seems to be a celebration of the power of love and the transformative nature of passion. The lyrics express how being filled with "wild honey" makes the singer feel like "twice the man" he used to be. The phrase "wild honey" suggests unbridled passion or fervor, something sweet but also unpredictable or wild. This feeling, the singer suggests, is a result of being in the presence of a woman who loves him, someone who can "make that kingdom come." The verse "Cut down in the wall, you really ought to see / That is the way, wild honey's supposed to be" further suggests that this wildness, this passion, is a freeing force that can cut through barriers and limitations.
The singer also seems to be embracing his own jack-of-all-trades nature, acknowledging that he may not be a master of any one thing but is still able to have fun and make the most of life. The repetition of the phrase "I am the one who's gonna get all the fun done" suggests a sort of carefree attitude towards life, perhaps alongside a sense of confidence in his ability to enjoy himself regardless of his circumstances.
Overall, "Wild Honey" seems to be an ode to the transformative power of love and passion, and how these emotions can bring out a stronger, more vibrant version of oneself, while also allowing for a sense of carefree enjoyment of life.
