Andy Samberg's 2007 performance of 'Dick in a Box' with Justin Timberlake at Madison Square Garden didn't go as planned. 'I start like five octaves higher than what I'm supposed to do,' he said.

When Samberg appeared on stage for the big performance, however, “I take one step off the platform and both my in-ears fall out. I'm like, oh no. I cannot hear the beat. I'm supposed to sing first. So I'm just like, I think I know where we are in the song. And I can't hear myself. And I start like five octaves higher than what I'm supposed to do.”“I know it's wrong, but I'm so overwhelmed," he continued.
Samberg swore that he "sounded good at rehearsal," adding, "I was just so green that I didn't even know to be like, I have to find those in-ears and put them back in." "Dick in a Box" introduced Samberg and Timberlake as '90s R&B artists singing about gifting their girlfriends their dicks in a box as a holiday present. It premiered during the Timberlake-hosted episode of SNL in December 2006 and won an Emmy for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics the following year.See Martin Scorsese stand up at Justin Timberlake concert: 'The G.O.A.T.
