To be fair, that was only a quick clip, and there are any number of reasons why Michael Bolton wouldn’t have been lip syncing on a show that has lip sync in its title.
I mean, reasons that go beyond Occam’s razor choices like “he doesn’t know what any of the words are,” and “he also doesn’t know where he is or what medications he mixed earlier that day.”
For now, though, we’ll just re-listen to his Lonely Island track.
Seriously, though, we’re hoping Bolton destroys the rest of that song, not only to justify LL Cool J and others flipping out in hysterics like that, but because it’s a brilliant pairing of musician and song choice.
