Call Me Irresponsible - Michael Buble

My review is of the Album 'Call Me Irresponsible' - Tour Edition, which features an extra disc. In November I treated my Mum to an early Christmas present. I took her to see her favourite crooner, Mr Michael Buble, at Birmingham's NEC arena. Having not been a particular fan of his before this time, I went along, open minded and willing to have a good time. What I got was the most fantastic night of music I have experienced in a very long time, which prompted me then, to buy this album, in my local Asda for £9.77. The difference between this particular album and the original release is that this 'Tour Edition' gives you an extra CD, with 8 extra ...  Read the complete review

In December 2007, I went with my wife and a couple of friends to Wembley Arena to watch the Canadian crooner Michael Buble. He is currently at the top of his game as a singer of the standards (Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, etc), and has also written his own material. Then, at Christmas, I opened one of the presents from my wife and found his lastest offering Call Me Irresponsible. The I put in the CD player...... Call Me Irresponsible is Buble's third album, released in 2007. It features a whole of horde of versions of standards, as well as 2 of his own songs, 'Lost' and 'Everything.' These are the tracks: 1. The Best Is Yet To Come 2. ...  Read the complete review

Michael Buble's latest album, Call Me Irresponsible, is also his best offering to day. His past albums have all contained great mixes of well known and lesser known covers that complement his style really well. However, whilst continuing the same general style, this album differs in that it absolutely hits the nail on the head. As with his previous album, It's Time, Buble has put together some well known covers, some lesser known covers, with two original tracks, Lost and Everything. The difference this time is that this album has that little bit extra that makes it classic. The well known covers are ones that everyone will recognise, and his versions of the ...  Read the complete review

Just before Christmas, I was made aware of Michael Buble by a friend who recommended I listen to his songs 'Lost' and 'Home'. I immediately became a fan of his work and luckily I got this album as a present. It even has 8 extra tracks on bonus CD including 2 Christmas ones. Talk about good luck! His music in general reminds me of a newer version of Frank Sinatra, high praise that I think is well deserved. I think there's not a bad song across both Cd's and I can happily press play and listen to them straight through without ever thinking of pressing the next button. In my opinion, the best songs are the previously mentioned Lost, Home, Me and Mrs. ...  Read the complete review

Michael Buble is just perfection in voice form, and his third main album is absolutely no disappointment to established fans or newcomers alike. The album is full of a brilliant mix of covers of classics and new tracks (slightly more of the latter than on previous albums which is refreshing), and Buble just has, in my opinion, the perfect voice. He seems like an absolutely lovely guy too, and I'd kill to see him live. I'm a big fan of jazz music to begin with, but even if you're not, the album contains some modern interpretation of a number of standards, and is a brilliant, relaxing album that isn't necessarily jazz in its strictest sense. I think Michael ...  Read the complete review
