Foul
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 UA-cam content. Good times back then. The Lonely Island was a big part of it. Also loved the Justin Timberlake features
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
@@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.
@@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.
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.
*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).*
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.
this is lowkey one of my favorite songs period. the beat is incredible, and it's funny as all hell. the fact that it's Michael Bolton is just icing on the brilliant cake.
I can’t believe this has existed so long and I just found out about it yesterday. The best thing I have seen in years. I never dreamed in the mid 90s that someday I would be saying, unironically, that Michael Bolton is awesome.
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
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.
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.
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.
It´s so freaking good and hilarious the way Bolton starts off with some small background vocals, like he´s really on board and feeling the rap flow😄Timberlake "that was kinda wierd but we´r back in the club" trying desperatley to regian the lead, but by then Bolton is completely lost, which climaxes as he keep closing he´s eyes🤣🤣😂
@@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
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.
The amount of times I would watch this with my friends in band class back in high school is uncountable. "Now back to the good part" always had us dying lolol
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... ua-cam.com/video/7GblgBFT1-s/v-deo.html
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.
Pretty sure The Lonely Island wrote the whole thing, and ask for him for the interpretation. So his main merit was to recognize a good concept and to fully commit. I'm saying this without any animosity as I got what you meant.
@@j-hp2449 Pretty Much what happened, Bolton explained it over an interview he really wanted to do a project with them but most of the pitches was(and I quote Bolton), "Nasty" for his core fans. But it took 5 Hours of recording ( Bolton on Studio , The Lonely Island on Skype) before that Sexy Hook was born.
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...
I can just imagine Michael Bolton had written an extremely sex driven hook that would've fit with their song but after watching the pirates films,realized that true passion and art comes not from sex but from pirates and anything less would compromise his true vision.
i read somewhere that he agreed to work with lonely island but the first draft was so vulgar he thought it wouldnt work with his fan base. So they rewrote it...and it was even more vulgar. He was nervous but round three was this. I can absolutely fit you theory into reality - Bolton called them and channeled lonely islands sexual outbursts into a pirate ballad
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"
I had to come to this video because my dad was watching SNL reruns when this masterpiece rippled outside his bedroom door to where I was sitting and I couldn't help but to sing along word for word 😂 me and my brother would play this video religiously when we were younger. This song will never get old even after 13 years later
The “take it home” sung by one of the boys right near the end always gets me. Like one of them switched over and is team Bolton on how the song should go.
Now I kinda want a whole album of Michael Bolton passionately describing movie plots as songs.
Think Mr. Bolton would do it if enough funds become available on GoFundMe or something?

@@dunlap838 Thats why im here lol
@@Just.Kidding Like me, listening to his music
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.

The amount of times I would watch this with my friends in band class back in high school is uncountable. "Now back to the good part" always had us dying lolol
"Wrote you a big sexy HOOK" get it he's a pirate!
I've watched this video more than 30 times. I never caught that. I hate myself.
illuvius32 Same. I identify with Forrest Gump a lot more all of a sudden
Never thought of that and this was one of my most played songs from 2011/2012
Jt gullion nice joke and go fuck yourself
I did not realize that😅
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
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... ua-cam.com/video/7GblgBFT1-s/v-deo.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. :)
i had this on an old ass yt playlist just got served in 2024 and i love it so much 😭
sings passionately *"Keira Knightley"*
Pirates are brave on the 7 seas
probably remembering her face brought the passion
Definitely my favorite part of the song
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
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.
MB is killing it as Tony Montana.
Michael Bolton deserves a Grammy for this.
I thought your profile pic was a hair on my screen
@@jacobwinters9893 it is 😂
Could legit get an Emmy, a Tony, and a Grammy for this one song.
Fuck you and you'r hair looking icon!!!
I didn't want to wipe my skreen but you made me!
More Like Michael Bolton ft. The Lonely island
😭😭😭
Yup that's what we're going for here lol
Pretty sure The Lonely Island wrote the whole thing, and ask for him for the interpretation. So his main merit was to recognize a good concept and to fully commit. I'm saying this without any animosity as I got what you meant.
Agreed
@@j-hp2449 Pretty Much what happened, Bolton explained it over an interview he really wanted to do a project with them but most of the pitches was(and I quote Bolton), "Nasty" for his core fans. But it took 5 Hours of recording ( Bolton on Studio , The Lonely Island on Skype) before that Sexy Hook was born.
We just gonna ignore how amazing Michael Boltons voice is?
It's almost like he's had a 40-year career as a pop crooner that basically just makes that an incredibly pointless thing to do. :P
Bro he is the shizz
yea kkkk
his voacal chords amazing
We just gonna ignore that we need oxygen to live?
The pinnacle of club music. He did not lie, that hook was sexy as hell
NOW BACK TO THE GOOD PART!!

+chance moreno ...I heard that right as I saw this...
It's crazy how active this comment section is even after ten years. Just shows how iconic this song is.
sometimes my brain goes "okayyyy im reloadedddd" for no reason at all
Some of us are inexorably drawn back to the good part.
Crazy how people who like music make YT comments on music videos.
Kind of an exaggeration, isn't that. I mean, give the video credit for hitting 221,277,497 views. Really downplaying it, if you ask me.
@@Jon-ko1qg 🤣🤣
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
All these years later this is still hilarious. Andy's reactions are pure Peralta!
when you're trying to write a serious school assignment, but can't forget that dope movie you just watched
I hear that.
This is what's happening with me, right now at this exact moment.
Literally just stopped writing my midterm to watch this
Same with me. I am currently trying to read Tom Clancy's Without Remorse and right now, all I can think about was Pirates of the Caribbean.
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...
Dude it's 2023 and this songs still slaps 😂😂😂 And Michael Bolton really killed it
Slaps hard and always will! C ya all in 10 years! It will still SLAP and CLAP!
This was peak UA-cam 😂😂😂
I love that we're all coming back to watch this.
MURDERED it
@@michaelwright1234567 4 real dawg just a pure masterpiece
hilarious
I can just imagine Michael Bolton had written an extremely sex driven hook that would've fit with their song but after watching the pirates films,realized that true passion and art comes not from sex but from pirates and anything less would compromise his true vision.
Did you actually try to make sense of this 😂
@@angeloddrev Yes, yes I did.
Sadly his art is deeply underappreciated. I'm glad to see someone else who understands. Bravo.
i read somewhere that he agreed to work with lonely island but the first draft was so vulgar he thought it wouldnt work with his fan base. So they rewrote it...and it was even more vulgar. He was nervous but round three was this. I can absolutely fit you theory into reality - Bolton called them and channeled lonely islands sexual outbursts into a pirate ballad
Alright
First heard this before I deployed overseas OEF in 2011 with the US Marine Corps. Listened to it mutiple times there. Hearing it now hits hard.
*"Yeah that was kinda weird but we back in the club"* 🤣🤦🏻♂️
Ray Burst out laughing! lmao!!!
Keira knightley!
So bomb
And now back to the good part!
@@appleclassic1 I was about to say the same LOL
This aged sooo beautifully and well-performed... I don't see how this could ever get old
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
I had to come to this video because my dad was watching SNL reruns when this masterpiece rippled outside his bedroom door to where I was sitting and I couldn't help but to sing along word for word 😂 me and my brother would play this video religiously when we were younger. This song will never get old even after 13 years later
I had this on my facebook memories, me and smy sister blasted this over and again, memories are the most beautiful things
I randomly got this stuck in my head after not hearing it for close to 10 years. Iconic
SAME but with like 5 of their songs
This is the tale
When it hits this hard, it stays with you forever.
Hell yeah same!
@@jeffreyrook8073 Lame. "Hits hard" is out-dated already, nerd.
“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”….😂💀
The “take it home” sung by one of the boys right near the end always gets me. Like one of them switched over and is team Bolton on how the song should go.
All these years of listening, and I've never heard that before! Nice!
@@mnorth1351 I am so happy I could alert someone to that little Easter egg!
Right lol
Never noticed this before and now its my favorite thing.
One of them also says Wooo!
the old lonelyisland hits started appearing in my feed again, what a great time to be back here
"Yeah that was kinda weird, but we're back in the club"
my favourite part

You can call me scarf face, snorting mountains of coccane.
good times
Wow I can't believe I found your comment!! I'm a fan from the Philippines!!
simpler times
True
periodt
Damn right
The only question is, how did they convince Bolton to take a part in this
You should read his children's book. I think MB was made for this.
more like, how did Bolton convince them to let him take part?
they probably just....called him
He seems to have a good sense of humor
Because lonely island was part of snl.
I played this for my 63 year old dad recently. He didn’t believe me that it was Michael Bolton. 😂😂😂😂 he totally vibed in shock
