You can look up the sound track to learn that sure enough, Jack Black does some of the singing. Mostly, though Graham REynolds is the singer.
This is not really my kind of movie, for for its genre, it is quite good. Reminds me of some the ensemble movies such as Best in Show. Of course we all find Bernie highly likable. How can you not like someone who is kind and considerate to those who have few friends, gives money to poorer families, directs town plays bringing culture to town. What a guy!
Jack Black was great in the Big Year as well. He certainly is a multi-talented actor.

I was look for a good snappy comedy, or at least, some fun romance. Neither here. Yeah, it's not awful, but who cares about any of the characters. Really, Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, and Nia (Greek wedding), ought to be able to put together something much better. When a man loses his job, he is usually devastated. Larry was mildly sad and surprised, but immediately went to work to find something else. Also, as a clerk in a big box store, how could he ever afford that house to begin with? But where did he get the money to go to school? Things seemed too easy. Yes, I know it was a movie, and a supposed comedy, but it just didn't work. The Julia Roberts character is so uni-dimensional, so flat. If she didn't have great legs and a pretty face there would be no point for her to be the one in the movie. Yes, disappointing.
