I loled so damn hard. Who seriously would have thought that an internet meme would turn into something nationally known by people like my mother?

My only question is, if they went through the trouble of getting him, why did he lip sync his own song??

Because most musicians lip sync for public performances. Especially ones that aren't in arenas with PA systems. :P

I have a real lack of respect for anyone that can't perform their own songs live. That's just sad

I never watch parades. They bore me to tears really.

Whats the point of having the singers there if they aren't even really performing?

The reason it's lip synched is because...well...its kinda cold.
As a singer and a North Dakota resident, I know that it is hard to sing in the cold, even in New York cold which is like, 40 degrees, which is not cold at all. As long as he's lip synching to himself, I think it's ok.
