1* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GI6CfKcMhjY This]] unexpected collaboration with Music/TheLonelyIsland has him thinking he's writing a soundtrack song for the newest ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' film. It deteriorates and ramps up the [=CMoF=] fast when it turns out the hook/chorus he wrote for The Lonely Island's song doesn't match the group's original lyrics at all.
2** It gets worse when Bolton tries to make the power chorus fit to some of the other films he likes... including ''Film/ErinBrockovich'' and Al Pacino's ''Film/{{Scarface 1983}}''. With Bolton dressing up as the lead character each time.
3*** Only Michael Bolton could turn Tony Montana's grenade launcher into a ''flamethrower''.
4*** Plus the chorus about ''Film/ForrestGump''.
5** His interruption of the second verse with "Now back to the good part!" became MemeticMutation immediately, helped greatly by his facial expression and the fact that his hat never appears at any other time in the video.
6** ''And'', to cap it off, he recorded a piano-driven ballad version of the song and released it as part of his ''Songs of Cinema'' album in 2017.
7* ''Film/OfficeSpace'' featuring Michael Bolton. As in, [[http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/6bff9b5b67/office-space-w-michael-bolton the actual Michael Bolton.]]
