He wrote over one hundred eighty-five songs, all of them now forgotten except for Married to a Mermaid (1866) which is occasionally sung in Britain. He performed for the Prince of Wales and other royalty on a few occasions (command performances). Lloyd was the first prolific and successful singer-songwriters for music hall.
