He always sang that way. There were a number of singers who were hard to watch, such as Nat King Cole and Ray Charles. Louis was always trying to smile, rather than concentrate on just singing the song properly. It's better to just listen to the records.

Nat King Cole used to have a TV show. My mother said she couldn't stand to look at him. He couldn't just sing the song. He had to move his big mouth all over the place. It was an odd quirk that was hard to look at.
