You whined and LEC listened. According to our forums the Steam version of LeChuck's Revenge has been patched, fixing many of the audio issues people were complaining about. In other words, the bone song should now be synced.
No word if the other versions of the game have been updated yet.
Update: Full list of Alterations
Direct from LucasArts, here's everything you need to know about the patch, in full:
-
Adjusted timing delays for certain puzzles
-
Fixed missing music in Dinky Jungle
-
Fixed music synching issue with the Bone Dance sequence
-
Fixed various music cross-fading issues
-
Added intro and outro credits sequences to the Classic version
-
Added acceleration curve to cursor speed
-
Increased volume level of “Classic” Chester
Who says LucasArts don't listen to you moaning gits? ;)

Right, but it's kind of silly to expect them to prioritize adding a sequence they consciously left out when there are plenty of bugs to fix. That's not to say they don't listen.
It's sad that the new intro plus cool credits music is still missing, but at least the classic version's back - and those bug fixes are very much needed. Guess I'm playing this again!

Anyhow, I imagine the Steam patch came first because it doesn't have to go through certification as do the 360 and PS3 patches. Given their subsequent monetary and time/resource cost, I strongly suspect (though would love to be proven wrong) that this is the final patch we'll see for MI2:SE - in response to the "Well, it's a start." mentality on the forums.

I don't have Steam, and don't really have any desire to get Steam for just one game. Is the patch only being released/applied to the Steam release of this game?
All this is pure speculation of course, and probably a bit too optimistic, especially with TTG seemingly having their hands full for the next couple of months.
Anyway, whatever the future might bring, this upgrade is good news. I'm still a bit surprised that so many people are so angry about the dancing monkeys.

They didn't completely listen! Where's my intro in the non-classic mode?!?!
That's not strictly a bug.

Incidentally, does the patch correct the vertical scrolling in classic mode?

I'm mostly curious if the Xbox version has been iMuse-ized. That was a really bad oversight on LEC's part.
