In the sketch, Boyz II Men recreate their music video to the song, with new, reassessed lyrics to the steamy classic. Celebrating a more “adult” Valentine’s Day, the song’s passion-filled lyrics are replaced with humorous compromises. “I’ll make love to you if you want me to. Unless you’re too tired, because I’m tired too,” the band coos in the funny redo.
The rest of the lyrics continue to reference comical replacements to lovemaking, like “texting memes” and “watching ‘NCIS’.” Colbert takes on the second verse in the video, telling his romantic partner she should just “go to puzzle town.” Check out the clip below:
Written by Babyface, “I’ll Make Love to You” is among the greatest R&B songs ever, dominating the Billboard Hot 100 for 14 weeks in 1994. The group’s song tied Whitney Houston’s previous record with “I Will Always Love You” two years earlier. Breaking even more records, the group replaced “I’ll Make Love to You” at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with their song, “On Bended Knee.”
The group recently performed at “Byron Allen Presents the Comedy and Music Superfest” during the weekend, along with performances by Gladys Knight, John Legend, Toni Braxton, and others. The group’s hit moved the audience to its feet during the special “Motownphilly.”
