Sherlock the Great Detective

Sing to the tune of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Sherlock, the great detective
Had a very special brain
And if you ever met him
You might think he was insane

All of the Scotland Yarders
Used to laugh and call him Freak
They never let poor Sherlock
Even have a chance to speak

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
John Watson came to say
“Sherlock, with your brain so smart,
Can’t you see you’ve won my heart?”

Then how John Watson loved him
As he shouted out with glee
“Sherlock, you great detective,
You’re the perfect man for me!”

Sherlock the Great Detective is also on AO3 as part of my Johnlock Comes A-Wassailing series.

I don't know if this will work, but it's worth a try!

SQUEEEEE! Thank you so much for doing this! It's the best Christmas gift I've received since 2016, when you recorded Seven Days of Ugly Christmas Apparel. I love it!

Would you be willing to post it on your page (not sure if that's the right terminology here) so that more folks can hear it? And possibly post it on AO3 and tumblr? I want the world to hear you sing! :D

P.S. I've got company arriving in a few minutes, so I don't have time to check where else this might already be, but I'll be around later in the day.

Thank you, sweetie, I'm glad you enjoyed it but it really was just a little reply to your post. I'm happy for you to share the link, but to have to do intros and outros and cover art is never what I intended. Neither did I look for an audience of more than a very few. You surely know how ambivalent I am about my singing. Thank you for your lovely wee songs and a very Merry Christmas to you!

I did enjoy it immensely, and I apologize for my GRABBY HANDS response. I never intended to suggest you create an intro or outro or cover art, but in retrospect I realize that your work is always posted in a very professional way, and so this "naked" version might not live up to your usual standards. As for your ambivalence about your singing, well, I do remember you mentioning it, and yet your voice is just so lovely that it's hard for me not to want the whole world to hear it. Thank you for allowing me to share the link. <3
