Michael Buble
Biography
Michael Bublé's introduction to the music of the swing era came to him through his grandfather, who filled his grandson's ears with the sounds of the Mills Brothers, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and others. As Bublé eagerly absorbed the recordings, he began to realize that he wanted to be a singer and that this style of music, virtually foreign to his own generation, was what he wanted to perform. With his grandfather's assistance, Bublé soon learned a whole catalog of tunes and gained experience and exposure by singing as a guest with several local bands. While still in his teen years, he won the Canadian Youth Talent Search, released several independent albums, and performed in a musical review titled Swing that traveled across the U.S. It wasn't long before Bublé was introduced to Grammy-winning producer David Foster and signed his first major recording contract with Reprise Records.
The two Canadians began work on a debut album that would incorporate Bublé's aptitude for pop standards into songs that spanned several decades. His self-titled debut disc was released in early 2003 and featured jazzy takes on old standards like "Fever" and "The Way You Look Tonight" as well as newer classics like Van Morrison's "Moondance" and the Bee Gees' "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart. " Further exposure ensued with a world tour and appearances on several television programs like NBC's Today Show, in which he sang a duet with host Katie Couric. He finished off 2003 with an EP of holiday material, Let It Snow, and began 2004 with the live CD/DVD set Come Fly with Me. In 2005, It's Time was a numer one hit in Canada, Japan, Italy, and Australia and made the top ten of both the U.K. and U.S. Later that year he released the live album Caught in the Act. The holiday-themed album Christmas followed in 2006 with the studio effort Call Me Irresponsible dropping in 2007. ~ Aaron Latham, All Music Guide

love love love love
saw him in concert in july shook my hand lovelovelove l o v e |
||
He's absolutely incredible, and he personifies these types of songs perfectly!!
|
||
I LOVE this boy! I've seen him on a couple of talk shows and also on Oprah where he was hiding in the bathroom to surprise some of her guests ... he's ALLLLLLLLLLL L L L L L L L L L L l good, no, he's GREAT! No, he's FAB-YU-LUS, that velvety voice and a sense of great humor too. I'm 64 do I don't have fantasies about him but I do enjoy his personality and music.

Michael Buble is the one artist that I could never get tired of. He accompanies my every mood--whethe r I'm feeling on top of the world or down in the dumps, he is my favorite voice.
|
||
absolutely amazing singer, my favorite. i know all of his songs by heart.
|
||
Too too great....... . . . . . . m e l l o w yet reaches you down deep! Love, love his voice!!
|
||
If you ever get a chance to see Buble in concert, do it. This is one of the best concerts I have ever been to. What a performer!! He is really a Sinatra for this generation.
|
||
EKIM KRALC I agree, but i tell you what, he keeps them all alive with his passion and his voice that we all need at this time that our country is in.
|
||
I absolutely cannot bet enough of his voice. He is "dreamy", and it make me want to swing all night
|
||
Really he demoted Sinatra. NO doubt I agree he is great. But how can you say that about Sinatra. Without greats like Dean Martin, Sinatra, Mel Torme... this guy wouldn't even exist. Come on why do people insist on comparing things, just let them be what they and don't be a critic, they're a**holes.
|
||
Seriously, this guy is better than Sinatra...yo u may disagree, but he is fresh and has more character in his songs. Sinatra was GREAT, don't get me wrong. But Sinatra, you have officially been moved to 2nd place.
|
||
In a day where most offerings are kitsch at best; Buble has the stuff that speaks of class which is all but absent in todays world!
|
||
Usually start my day with a lil sinatra and buble... puts me ina good mood
|
||
i just want to say im in love with mike.... this is the standard the boys have to meet ...mua michale buble
|
||
Wow! I am very picky about singers--but this is the first time I have actually heard him--I love his voice and delivery! Very authentic interpretati o n - - V e r y hot!
|
||
Bublé is the Sinatra of our generation! He's an example of how this music lives on! He's got that Sinatra/Darr i n style. However, he's quite versatile, and a great entertainer! Sing out Michael!! And praise God for your grandfather.
|
||
All I can say about him is that i love his music and I'm greatful that his grandfather introduced him to it. I can't get enough of him,his wonderful!
