Hugh Laurie - Rowing song - Homoerotic Anthem

[timotei1996]

swing swing together you're head betwixt' my knees

[londoncalling1984]

I don't know who are more annoying, old Etonian English toffs like Laurie, or sycophantic, whooping Yanks like the audience.

[schloob92]

@londoncalling1984

hey we yanks ain't that bad. but i do have a question: why isn't hugh laurie using his normal voice, like in house?

[mymphr]

@schloob92 Really?

[mamabear1753]

@schloob92 Because he's not American?

[jorceshaman]

@schloob92 Are you shitting me? Americans are already thought of as being dumb, you're not helping us lose that image. He's British, not American, so he has the British accent.

[rpbkrpbk]

0:59 Jack Nicholson.

[Golgolath]

Wow, that blonde in the audience is insanely hot

[charleson1111]

Stay in the US laurie, you don't belong in England any more.

[tmarritt]

@charleson1111 boohissboo

[midnightcaller]

@charleson1111

thats priceless why doesn't he belong here now ? in your opinion hes been born and bred here and hes one of the few people that has earned big money and is keeping it in this country and spending it here ,and not run out on this country like many others have

[KungfuCow5]

@charleson1111 You fool.

[I4gotmyMANTRA]

Just what comes to mind at the phrase "bizarre homoerotic anthem" is so much funnier than the actual song. XD

[TTHellsingTT]

I row and i stil think this is great. Only real men can wear tights, tight tights.

[homieb123456789]

i now hate hugh laurie. bitch.

[madziek23]

Dare I ask why? Has he harmed you in any way? And I don't think he's a bitch, though he used to play women. I think he's as manly as a man can be.

[homieb123456789]

naw man, but i row, and this kinda pisses me off

[madziek23]

Hugh used to row too, when he was in Cambridge. That's why James Lipton asked him to sing this song.

[homieb123456789]

aight, hatred lessened

[kevinarnold1976]

@homieb123456789 Why do you keep watching then?

[ClydeRowing]

@madziek23 quite right. Hugh was in one of the most closely fought boat races ever in 1980 when one of the oxford rowers virtually collapsed over 2kms from the finish and cambridge almost charged through them - oxford won by just 3 feet over a 7 mile course. Ouch!

[FraterAeternus93]

"....belts off, trousers down,

Isn't life a scream!"

[Immortalkfm]

Jolly boating weather, and a hey ha this breeze

Blade on the feather, shade off the trees

Swing swing together, Your bodies between your knees

[halloweenfan92]

[cub68134]

[cub68134]

[mrpentium]

IF YOU WANT TO HEAR IT SUNG...SEARCH YOUTUBE:  Eton Boating Song by Eton College Musical Society

[gnarkillkicksass]

This is the BBC rowing song to, taken after they won Henley against Eton.

[spamvicious]

[asia0123]

[roboticxcupcake]

"Jolly boating weather,

And a hay harvest breeze,

Blade on the feather,

Shade off the trees,

Swing swing together,

With your bodies between your knees,

Swing swing together,

With your bodies between your knees."

I'd translate it into Polish if I could, but unfortunately I can't.

[asia0123]

[Wyrmshadow]

Row Row Row your Boat.

Gently Down the Stream.

Belts Off, trousers down.

[kiwibelle85]

Can someone translate this in french or italian please?!?!:-))

[maverickxpunk]

Hugh looks a little scared.

[SeeSayLeki]

He can sing to? Is there nothing this man can't do?!

[Jihime47]

Nothing. Pure perfection.

But hey, there's one flaw. He's not mine. Well, if he was, that would be perfect :D

[mikafan87]

Hahah!!!!

Hugh Laurie is soo great!

[NcisTivaLover]

ROFL!

[cherriblizz]

[bessieboop04]

[mrpentium]

I dont really know...I found it after the fact...love the audience reaction as much as anything !

[HouseMDfanatic123]
