There's a music video show on the ABC (Oz BBC) here every Friday and Saturday nights, and it's a thing that if you're home, you'll often switch it on rather than the radio, just to have some tunes as background to reading/writing. Mr B and I were quietly being grown-ups (ie, he was reading his Kindle and I was trying to finish Fathers) when that came on. I had to rewind it, twice.
Well, some Americans did! Or is that an allegation that you mentioned it? It's possible I was working or being hideously ill that day ... but I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED A MEMO ;-)
I only know them because they also did this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7yfISlGLNU and, the seminal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4&feature=relmfu
i hadn't seen that and it's too fabulous. going to guess it's folks on facebook that knew about it as that's where most vid gets passed around (because it's easy peasy).
anyhoo, thanks heaps for linking. totally made my week :D
Apparently it was on SNL, but I am SO pleased it has reached out. Improved my crappy week, too -- I would never have guessed I would say that about Michael Bolton!
I did actually know about this. I saw it when it first premiered on SNL. And The Lonely Island (the other guys in the video) are totally my heart and soul. I own both their albums!
Yeah, guilty. My brother is a big Lonely Island (to be fair, so I am, I Just Had Sex is amazing) fan as well as an even bigger Jack Sparrow/PotC fan so I did know about this. But I had no idea who Michael Bolton is and never really got PotC so it didn't make much of an impression on me.
Terribly ironic you should bring that up - I was just complaining the other day to my sister about just that - how my skin's starting to wrinkle and dry out and I'm getting 'old people hands, forehead, and nose' *pout*
Sunblock, and rose hip oil, rub it in while your skin is still damp and warm from your shower. Even if you have oily skin, it's lovely, and if you have dry, it's a delight! Cheap enough to use all over, too!
ahhhh this video. It's a tradition now on facebook( and has been since it came out) to do Michael Bolton Mondays and post this vid. For some reason it always makes Mondays better. ...now back to the good part....

But it was still too funny.
