Michael Buble' - Crazy Love

Michael Bublé was discovered seven years ago when he was performing at the wedding of former Canadian Prime Minster’s daughter. The son of a British Columbia-based salmon and herring fisherman, Bublé spent the months his parents were away with his music-loving Italian grandfather, who introduced him to the singers who would become Bublé’s idols: Bobby Darin, Dean Martin, Sinatra, Ray Charles, and Elvis Presley. “These guys were triple threats,” he says. “They could sing, they could dance, they could act. They were entertainers, and I believe that’s a lost art now.”

Bublé honed his skills as a showman through years of performing in hotel lounges and smoky bars — gigs his grandfather, a plumber, helped the underage singer secure by trading his plumbing services. Buble' has a warm, engaging voice and unassailable taste in music. His debut album was an international smash, going Top Ten in the U.K. and Canada, and earning him his first Juno award for Best New Talent in 2004. The follow-up, It’s Time, sold more than 5.5 million copies, and has remained on the Billboard Traditional Jazz charts for a staggering two years, and in the Number 1 slot for more than 80 weeks, an all-time record.

I was recently given Michael Buble's new CD, Crazy Love to listen to. What an awesome collection of tunes.

Seriously.

I knew most of the songs and could actually sing along. A few of the songs are such classics as Georgia on My Mind, Cry me a River, and Heartache Tonight. Even my husband and kids like it and they aren't into this kind of music. My youngest always asks to listen to "Mr. Bubble" . I love the fact that my kids are learning to be more versatile in there music preferences.

You need to get this CD. Really you do. It's full of wonderful older songs that have been brought back to life.
