@@donkeysaurusrex7881 plus who thought they'd ever hear Michael say "Her womb is polluted, this towns a pussy just waiting to be fucked" in their lifetime. was probably just as shocking like when people went to a Bob Saget comedy routine expecting to see Danny Tanner, and saw what Bob's comedy really was. Foul
@@AndrewSung-f3s "The good part of life is dying and being allowed to kiss a celestial dictator's feet." Nah. Michael Bolton is way cooler than your god.
My favorite thing about this video is that it highlights the very real vocal talents of Mr. Michael Bolton for an audience who may not be familiar with him.
I can't believe its been so long (and somehow I memorized this song including the uh-huh) when it came out. :D This is my playlist when I was in my old toxic workplace.
The fact that they got Bolton to sing, "This whole town's a p*ssy, just waiting to get f*cked", is one of the greatest things to happen musically in my lifetime.
So true! I randomly come back to these kind of videos time by time and instantly get back this feeling of easy life and high quality RUclips content. Good times back then. The Lonely Island was a big part of it. Also loved the Justin Timberlake features
The funniest part of this video for me rewatching it is at :42 when Michael Bolton is walking into the club with them looking all cool and you know the whole time he's just thinking about Pirates of the Caribbean.
This is genius. Been listening to this for years, have times when i randomly say "THIS IS THE TIME OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!" and have real people who say what? makes it even better
*9 years in, and I'm still trying to figure out why The Lonely Island is interrupting Michael Bolton's song about Jack Sparrow (feat. Forrest Gump, Erin Brockovich, and Tony Montana).*
@@Citr0wned Same but with the other line. I can't help it but bursting out singing "Keira Knightleyyyyyy!" everytime she appears on something or someone says her name
Just found this song recently and omg, I love it!! Also as an artist, the concept of this song is hilariously relatable. Like you're making a drawing of a certain mood, but in the process you get hyperfixated on a thing with the opposite vibe and it's almost all you think about lol. And you fight the urge to put that into the piece in some way. XD
Fun fact! "Hook" is a term used in music to describe the most memorable part of a song, as in the part that "hooks" you in. In this case, the big sexy hook is Bolton's amazing chorus about Captain Jack Sparrow.
My parents showed me this when it first came out when I was 11 and the “NOW BACK TO THE GOOD PART” made me cry of laughter. And now I have to revisit this song once every couple of months to give me the will to live, thank you Michael Bolton 🙏
My best friend showed me this when we were 7 or 8 (so like a year or two after it came out) and I remember not knowing almost any of the film references except for Jack Sparrow, and not knowing what any of the explicit words meant, lol. Good times - and this song genuinely slaps even now. One of my favorite parodies. Edit: I also learned who Michael Bolton AND Lonely Island were through this song. Imagine my surprise after watching Brooklyn Nine Nine, watching this music video, and realizing Andy Samberg was in both. So crazy.
Michael Bolton is such a perfect character in this. He has absolutely no regard for the boys, he is laser focused on his hook and in his mind just waiting to blast in and takeover. Once he enters movie mode he is no longer even riffing with them whatsoever. Comedy gold.
When I found out how many times they had to "tone down" the lyrics so he would accept, I lost a tad of respect for him. But The Lonely Island still made another banger.
The lyrics were offensive to his demographic, he found them funny but wasn't about to tank his whole career for one song - regardless this song worked out and is a banger
Reminds me of that one time when we were supposed to give a report on a celebrity for English class but I had been reading a bunch of Chuck Norris "facts" so I just told those for 5 minutes straight instead... and passed regardless...
@@dchiznit209 you know that shot of Jack turning his head and smirking as the British are trying to intercept his escape? That's Bolton after listening to the boys' track.

Those lines are so funny because it's true. Who cares about a bunch of guys singing a generic song about getting girls in a club? the Jack Sparrow part is the good part lol.
True fact? Can anyone name a fake fact? The point about a fact is that its true. Grass is green is a fact, basically says everything you need to know. You dont have to say true, thats what rhe word fact is for
@@Gugnar678 Actually, since you insist on correcting stuff: "Grass is green" is not actually a fact. It is a statement. Since grass can be brown when it died. Not to mention the types of grass that aren't completely green to begin with. So a fact would be "Green grass exists." I'd even let "Most grass is green." pass if you insist.
@@Orangeflava A jester is a paid fool in a king or queen’s court. It’s similar to the joker you see in a deck of cards. So “ the jester of Tortuga” is just a fancy way of saying “the funny guy from Tortuga”, but the phrasing is really great.
I like to imagine that Michael Bolton didn't own a tv or computer until he was 55, at which point he discovered movies for the first time in his life and felt like he had to share this amazing thing with the world.
This song singlehandedly turned Michael Bolton from a punchline of a kind of funny Office Space joke into someone a younger generation can unironically appreciate. Yeah, it's a Lonely Island song, so what he's singing is goofy, but the power of his voice is undeniable. Not only does the song not take the easy way out and just make fun of him - it 100% doesn't work without him.
This song is legendary & a masterpiece so well thought out & put together. It single handedly made Michael Bolton cool & known to a younger audience that didn't know his music. It reignited his career not that he wasn't a legend already! Which is what the song writer of this song wrote it for plus it was truely hilarious!
Well said! I’ve always seen this masterpiece as a Michael Bolton song featuring the Lonely Island 😂 I could not imagine what it was like working with him on this
Fucking GOLD! The lines ; "This is the tale, of Tony Montona, Cubano flame, with Miami nuts Got a basehead wife, her womb is polluted This whole town's a pussy, just waiting to be FUUUUUUUUCKD (Its About to get FuuuuUUUuuuuuucked!)" Just kill me
Yeah, true that. I've always loved how this whole song basically is "screw the popcultures need for shallow values and fake personas, time for a mans romance bitches"
This cemented Michael Bolton as one of the greatest artists of all time because he showed he had a great sense of humour. Artists become so much more human and endearing when they poke fun at themselves or go outside the "norm" of what you expect from them.
I've (obviously) never met him, but Michael Bolton seems like a legitimately nice guy to be around. The amount of parodies of his own persona he has taken part of really says something about someone of his standing.
Have you seen when he sang songs for the Honest Trailers Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory video? If not enjoy... ruclips.net/video/7GblgBFT1-s/видео.html
Micheal Bolton already had great success back in the day and now he is just cruising off of previous success, this is only a treat for the young crowd. Non of the new singers could sound like him.

The best part of this is how committed Michael Bolton is to this. It is so amazing
And that he can laugh at himself. A lot of celebrities can't take a joke, Michael Bolton just takes a ridiculous premise and runs with it.
Was that Bolton as Jenny? I feel catfished ;°;
Edit: Nevermind thats a babe.
No doubt this was his idea so he can be relevant again. Which is fine, he's great.
He’s a consummate professional. He did a Netflix special and included this song as part of it.

True. The best part is that he totally commits to the concept.
the other best thing is his version of "go the distance" from Hercules

@@Orangeflava A jester is a paid fool in a king or queen’s court. It’s similar to the joker you see in a deck of cards. So “ the jester of Tortuga” is just a fancy way of saying “the funny guy from Tortuga”, but the phrasing is really great.
Pauper of the surf
Where else do you get a "Back to the good part", in the middle of a song? This is a touchstone for me, one of their best creations
I still reference it all the time.
You picked the right best man!
@@laceyayala843 I think you meant to reply to the comment above this one, but I agree
This just proves Bolton voice is so good he could literally sing any written word and make it sound amazing !!
9 years later the "KEIRA KNIGHTLEY!" still gets me
Has it been 9 years already? WHAT THE FUCK
Damn still can't believe it.
Damn
Wher is Keira Knightley ?
And she still gets it... If you know what I mean
I like to imagine that Michael Bolton didn't own a tv or computer until he was 55, at which point he discovered movies for the first time in his life and felt like he had to share this amazing thing with the world.
Haha. I like your comment. Your comment is a good comment.
Indeed it's a good comment, take my like for that nice comment.
@@gbm7880 haha. your comment was good as well. take my like for your good comment
I'm going to be a contrarian and say your comment is overrated.
Is it me or was RUclips just more entertaining and fun back then? I miss this version of RUclips.
RUclips follow algorhithm. Want more of the good part. Like it more. Watch it more.
@@justadad6677 that’s the problem. You used to get the stuff that was popular for everyone, not curated content. So things were cultural
@@Augrills I can see the logic in that.
It was better forsure, its INCREDIBLY diluted these days, making it much harder for the “algorithm”
This was SNL and SNL has gone even more downhill than RUclips
1:31 The enthusiasm on his face when he says now back to the good part. He really got into this role
“Yeah that was kind weird but we back in the club” gets me everytime 😂😂
Same
"Now back to the good part" is way better :D
“Roger that, that me try another film”….😂💀
This song has a stronger narrative than the last three Pirates movies.
F for the Pirates movies.
@@Naxthural F
Should have stopped after At Worlds End.
@@Ironbat92 Aye
I liked at world’s end
Me after the Covid-19 Lockdown is over : "Yeah that was kind of weird but we are back in the club"
Then comes another lockdown and we are back to the good part ;)
Random spike in cases "NOW BACK TO THE GOOD PART"
Haha good man for believing this Lockdown will ever be over ;')
Underrated comment
i felt that.
I love the little “take it home!” in the background during the Scarface bit. We love a reluctant hype man 🤣
10 years later and I had an itching to hear the line "the Jester of Tortuga"
I also came back to the song for the exact same reason, it just sticks in the brain!
why?
@@user-lz5nd8lh8b I"ll leave that question to a professional
SAME
my itching was for 'giant squid!'
This song singlehandedly turned Michael Bolton from a punchline of a kind of funny Office Space joke into someone a younger generation can unironically appreciate. Yeah, it's a Lonely Island song, so what he's singing is goofy, but the power of his voice is undeniable. Not only does the song not take the easy way out and just make fun of him - it 100% doesn't work without him.
This song is legendary & a masterpiece so well thought out & put together. It single handedly made Michael Bolton cool & known to a younger audience that didn't know his music. It reignited his career not that he wasn't a legend already! Which is what the song writer of this song wrote it for plus it was truely hilarious!
"it 100% doesn't work without him"
the sketch is based on him, ofc it wouldnt work without him
Well said! I’ve always seen this masterpiece as a Michael Bolton song featuring the Lonely Island 😂 I could not imagine what it was like working with him on this
Hell yes! Michael Bolton big magic for real! Just great stuff.
I think my favorite part is how much he likes the song. He plays it at his concerts.
"you can call me Scarface snoring mountains of cocaine"
"close enough"
this song is just pure gold
Snorting
White gold.
Never noticed that before! 🤣
Fucking GOLD! The lines ;
"This is the tale, of Tony Montona, Cubano flame, with Miami nuts
Got a basehead wife, her womb is polluted
This whole town's a pussy, just waiting to be FUUUUUUUUCKD (Its About to get FuuuuUUUuuuuuucked!)" Just kill me
Lol yeah, he's just like fuck it, close enough
I heard this song first time today let me tell you i absolutely love it I'm always a fan of Michael Bolton since day one❤
This aged sooo beautifully and well-performed... I don't see how this could ever get old
mystical quest to the isle of Tortuga. He's the pauper of the surf, the jester of tortuga. Michael Bolton killed this.
When your best man puts this in the Wedding playlist.
Nice bro
That would be great!
Ya got a keeper there!
Hell yeah ... passed the vibe check
You would clearly be marrying the wrong person
13 yrs later & I still say NOW THAT JUST SOUNDS NICE at everything ❤
Holy shit how did I miss this gem for the past 5 years? This was probably one of the best things on the internet to this day.
Ikr!!
Ikr!!
Ikr!!
The same way many of us gave up on Saturday Night Live long ago.
true
No one ever talks about how absolutely right Michael Bolton is.
Now back to the good part!!
@@fivehundredeightyseven599 nice profile picture
@@lauren1646 nice username
Yeah, true that.
I've always loved how this whole song basically is "screw the popcultures need for shallow values and fake personas, time for a mans romance bitches"
He's so fucking right
This cemented Michael Bolton as one of the greatest artists of all time because he showed he had a great sense of humour. Artists become so much more human and endearing when they poke fun at themselves or go outside the "norm" of what you expect from them.
Watch him in his clip from the "Larry Sanders Show" where Garry Shandling calls Bolton a fucking asshole 😂😂😂
He probably laughed his ass off at the pitch
Please explain the joke for us.
"Now Back to the good part" Michael Bolton popping up with the sillly pirate hat get gets me everytime
This is one of the best things on the internet. Period.
Anger & Torture Porn are couple of the best things on the internet, as well....
Enfurnus5 ok you need help bro
@@TheRealNobodyButu we're all insane. Some of us have embraced the insanity; most live in denial....
@@piotrexyzerthefrumentarius7472 that's what sociopaths tell themselves to justify their actions
@@sanjivinsmoke9154 What's that?
I've (obviously) never met him, but Michael Bolton seems like a legitimately nice guy to be around. The amount of parodies of his own persona he has taken part of really says something about someone of his standing.
I also love how you can tell Michael's having a good time with this.
It is well known that playing along is the greatest way to subvert parody and turning it into your own profit, politicians do it all the time.
Have you seen when he sang songs for the Honest Trailers Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory video?
If not enjoy... ruclips.net/video/7GblgBFT1-s/видео.html
@@Areanyusernamesleft Thank you for that link, I had no idea!
@@slandshark, you are quite welcome. I also like how he obliquely references this video at the end. :)
Michael Bolton will never reach these heights in his career ever again.
Tru dat m8
Micheal Bolton already had great success back in the day and now he is just cruising off of previous success, this is only a treat for the young crowd. Non of the new singers could sound like him.
Bolton has 8 top ten albums, 9 #1 songs, is a grammy winner, and worth $60 million last I checked. He had already reached the top of the mountain.
jeez guys chill.. does anyone here know the word sarcasm?
+Kent Stark didnt sound like sarcasme
I grew up with Michael Bolton's music. I love his voice and attitude. He also makes a great scarface and I would watch a redo with him in it.
