EDITORS COMMENTS

A Thing He Had Never Done Before" is a captivating music cover from the early 1910s, featuring the comic genius of George Robey as he sings this soulful and humorous ballad penned by C.W. Murphy. The cover art, published by Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases a serious and introspective Robey, dressed in formal attire, gazing off into the distance with a thoughtful expression. The title of the song, "A Thing He Had Never Done Before," is written in elegant script at the top of the cover, with the composer's name, C.W. Murphy, and the singer's name, George Robey, prominently displayed below. The background of the cover is a simple yet effective design, with a subtle bath tub motif, suggesting the theme of the song's lyrics. The lyrics of "A Thing He Had Never Done Before" tell the story of a man who, after years of heavy drinking, decides to take the pledge and embrace sobriety. The song's chorus goes, "He took a bath, a real good bath, and he felt so clean and bright, He shaved and combed his hair, and put on his Sunday clothes, And he went out in the sunshine, and he felt so grand, A thing he had never done before." The cover art perfectly captures the mood of the song, with Robey's serious expression and the bath tub motif symbolizing the man's newfound commitment to cleanliness and self-improvement. The use of humor, as is typical of Robey's comedy, adds an endearing and relatable touch to the song's message about the importance of personal growth and the challenges of overcoming addiction. Overall, "A Thing He Had Never Done Before" is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the talents of a beloved comedian and the timeless themes of self-improvement and the human experience.
