Im giving Michael Buble's 'Michael Buble' a 5/5 rating even though I do think its inferior to his latest album "It's Time"... how does that work? Well I would actually rank "It's Time" as better than 5/5!
The mark of Michael Buble is his strong, crisp voice that translates so well across genres and sounds. The mark of "Michael Buble" is the album's throwback style - from Moondance to Come Fly With Me - Buble takes on some of the great songs ever produced or sang... and plants his own style and sound on it. The album is fantastic in the foreground and also plays nicely as background music for parties or dinners.
Excellent and highly recommended!

This is a great CD of Michael Buble. I don't think there is a single song I don't enjoy hearing. I also have It's Time and Call Me Irresponsible. I think they are all very comparable.
I purchased the Michael Buble' CD entitled Michael Buble' and couldn't wait to receive it. I must say that I was not disappointed. I love his style of music, and that he sings the standards. This is a great CD to buy if you appreciate Sinatra, Harry Connick, Jr., etc. The only thing I don't like about it is that many of his songs are repeats of music from his other CDs. Of course, this is only an issue if you have several of his other CDs, as well. Other than that, I highly recommend it!
I love this CD because It make me feel good about my self. Their is nothing I dislike about this CD it's great. I bought another copy because you could never have enough Michael Buble
My daughter-in-law requested this CD for Christmas. I'm unfamiliar of the artist; but, she was happy to receive it. It is so convenient to shop online. So far I've had transactions with good, honest, sellers.
This CD is sooo good, it is perfect sing-along in the car music. Michael has such a sultry, gorgeous, sexy, perfect for this type of music voice. Come Fly with me is a favorite of my 3 year old daughter who requests it all of the time, The way you look tonight is a perfect wedding song, Michael has a great rendition of How can you mend a broken heart, and who doesn't like Sway (what a fun get up and dance song). That's all is the perfect ending to a perfect CD. Another great CD of Michael Buble is Call Me Irresponsible (just came out in May), he has a couple of songs on this CD that he wrote that are amazing, Lost is my favorite of all of his songs but Everything is such a fun song you can actually hear him smiling while he sings (you have to listen to it to know what I mean). Now, if you want to see him in concert, Caught in the Act is a nice concert to watch. He is so pleasant to look at too. Enjoy Michael Buble!
I purchased this CD after buying "It's Time" cause I loved that CD. Unfortunately, I was a little disappointed with this CD due to it being so commercial. I can only surmise this was one of his earlier CD's and he had little artistic say. I preferred "It's Time" much better, he seems more comforable in his skin and has created his own sound. Even still, he's got a GREAT voice! If you like easy listening; Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin and Harry Connick Jr. You will love Michael Buble's dreamy voice.
I really don't know that much about this particular item as I bought it as a gift for someone else who is into Sinatra and Dean Martin music, etc. so I thought he might like an updated twist on crooner music.
I had the good luck of being able to see Mr. Buble live in concert in Reno this past july. He was amazing! So full of energy, hit every note and was great with the audience. He was gratious to his fans who waited by the tour bus after the show signed autographs and talked to many of them. He deserves all the sucess in the world. Buy this cd because he bring back swing! You can also see him at www.michaelbuble.com. I strongly encourage checking him out live!
I love this CD, one of his best, in a good way he replaces those we've lost, Frank Sinatra and probably soon Tony Bennett won't be recording these wonderful songs anymore, thanks Michael Buble.
This is by far Michael's best CD. His voice is so pure. I hate to compare anyone to Frank Sinatra but between his voice and charm, I think Michael could be a modern day version.
I used this CD as the background music for my wedding. Buble is our generation's Sinatra, helping twenty-somethings like me remember that romance can be express in a classy way. My wife and I have listen to it about 80 times and I'm tired of it yet. We are making plans to see him in concert next year.

Michael Buble - David Foster Takes Another Canadian Under His Wings

Pros: Michael gives new life to some classic songs.
Cons: Some of his interpretations of the material are BAD!
Preamble Don't ask me why but sometimes I need to listen to something besides pop and nu-metal. There are times when I like to hear older music, especially those songs interpreted by newer artists. That's how I stumbled upon Michael Bubl . Who Is Michael Bubl ? Michael Bubl (pronounced boo-blay) is 25 years old and from Vancouver, Canada. From a very young age, he was exposed to the music of the 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's. Although he had an appreciation for the music of his own time, it was the earlier stuff that appealed to him. When he was 17, he won the Canadian Youth Talent Search and...

George Michael as Swing? Why the hell not!

Pros: Very very sexy and smooth...
Cons: ...but kinda arrogant at the same time.
Sometime around 33AD in the Middle East a man called Jesus, who was a prophet/Son of God/hippie/cult leader/philosopher/whatever-your-fancy, was executed in a particularly grisly manner. In fact, there was nothing particular good about that day as according to some sources it was a day also filled with earthquakes and thunderstorms and general meterological terrors. It was a particularly bad day for Jesus and two other chaps who had the misfortune to share his fate on the same day. For reasons unknown, the day is memoralised as 'Good Friday' although, clearly, there was nothing good about it..

Easy listening music that won't hurt the ears

Pros: Engaging voice, good talent, phrasing
Cons: too many similar versions of the same album
First, if you are going to buy a Buble CD, make sure you don t get a duplicate of what he has out there. The guy has about three CDs out one has a DVD in it. They appear to be recycled versions of the same album with a few different cuts. A very confusing deal which the CD manufacturer is using to take advantage of unsuspecting buyers. His voice is very pleasant. He is another retro-singer who is attempting to be a lounge singer or another Frank Sinatra. There are a lot of these singers out the past couple of years. In addition, we are hearing him in many soundtracks, from 2 Weeks Notice to...
