Great voice, and I love the song, but I'll never forgive his family for how they betrayed the Starks.

Turns out Michael Bolton IS a major cinephile.

I normally hate "censorship", but I feel like if that song had been any dirtier, it could have easily ruined it. So I'm glad Bolton insisted they clean it up a bit. It ended up being my favorite of their songs.

Respect to Bolton. It sounds like the joke initially was "Here's romantic crooner Michael Bolton singing some nasty hardcore lyrics" and by telling them to go in a different direction they came up with something much more creative and funnier. Love the Lonely Island and it sounds like this was a fruitful collaboration!

I like how the actual video seems like a satire of that story. Like, they were trying to do something nastier (which is represented by going to the club) and Michael Bolton just wants to talk about his films. I mean, it's so clear the image of them receiving the e-mail and thinking "Oh man, he doesn't want to do anything we want" and coming up with that song. Man that's hilarious. Great song too!

Brilliant move for him. This introduced him to a whole new generation, AND introduced him as somebody who is really cool and funny! Great move for Michael Bolton. And, of course, he really rocked that song. :)

Michael Bolton actually sounds better now than he did back when he was popular.

For all the heat & (basically) ridicule Michael Bolton takes on the Internet (but then again, who doesn't?), he seems like a funny, cool-ass dude, and his appearance in that song, along with this interview made me respect him a ton.

The title of this video is pretty misleading. It sounds like they Lonely Island treated him badly when they first met, when that's not at all what happened if you listen to the interview.

Man, I've never seen Bolton speak outside of his music. The fact that he's focused on what Pacino and Depp think of his portrayal of them, even in jest, right out of the gate is unexpectedly cool. What a champ. He can sing whatever he likes however he likes as far as I'm concerned now :P (and holy crap his commitment to the bits in the Lonely Island collaboration is what makes that video one of my faves from them)

Fair play to Michael Bolton, the greatest thing you can do, especially in Hollywood or music, is to never take yourself too seriously, I love how celebrities can do this cause sometimes it's a gamble

I love that he told them he had some problems with how dirty it was and they listened and made those changes. That's pretty awesome :)
