He's a modern day crooner, a Frank Sinatra for the 21st century,

Michael Buble is a Canadian singer and entertainer. He has a very smooth, very suave persona and this definitely carries over to his music. He definitely appeals to women. I think at his concerts the attendance is mostly women with a few men thrown in for good luck. He has a very romantic feeling about his songs as most of the songs he does sing are love songs.

What I like about him too is that he is always very smartly dressed and definitely looks the part. I think whenever I've seen him on different shows, appearances etc he is always wearing a nice black suit and usually a tie to go with it.

A lot of his music and songs are cover versions which he tends to put his own spin on. He generally keeps to the same kind of sound but to me his does have a very distinctive voice. It's quite a soothing voice and always makes you want to sing along with it. He does quite a lot of jazz and big band music too which I really enjoy and even though it is from a different age I think it's still quite relevant today and nice to have something a bit different than just pop music all the time. For me I just really quite like him, he's easy to listen too, quite fun and looks like he is having a good time producing and singing his music.

His debut album, Michael Buble was released in February 2003. I think it took a while for him to go mainstream, I probably only have been aware of him for the last couple of years but he's definitely very popular now. The album went platinum and reached the top ten of the album charts in the UK, Canada and went to number one in Australia. Buble has gone on to win a Grammy and multiple Juno awards which are the Canadian equivalent of the Grammys.

This album has lots of covers from a range of different eras with originals from Dean Martin, George Michael and Freddy Mercury. The track listings are as follows:

"Fever"
"Moondance"
"Kissing a Fool"
"For Once in My Life"
"How Can You Mend a Broken Heart?"
"Summer Wind"
"You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine"
"Crazy Little Thing Called Love"
"Put Your Head on My Shoulder"
"Sway"
"The Way You Look Tonight"
"Come Fly With Me"
"That's All"
"Can't Help Falling In Love"
