Michael Buble Review & Giveaway - CLOSED

Thanks to the One2One Network I had the opportunity to review Michael Buble's new album Crazy Love.

Crazy Love debuted at #1 on the Billboard Chart is currently available for purchase through Amazon and other retailers.

Info I received from One2One Network:

Singer and songwriter Michael Bublé has sold over 22 million albums worldwide. His previous album, 2007’s Grammy winning "Call Me Irresponsible" was a #1 album in over 15 countries.

His 2005 CD "It's Time" holds the record as the longest running title to remain on the Billboard Traditional Jazz charts – a full two years. It sat in the Number One position for over 80 weeks!

He has had two #1 singles, "Everything" and "Home" which was also a #1 hit for Blake Shelton on the Country charts.



Album Tracklisting:
1. Cry Me A River
2. All Of Me
3. Georgia On My Mind
4. Crazy Love
5. Haven't Met You Yet
6. All I Do Is Dream Of You
7. Hold On
8. Heartache Tonight
9. You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You
10. Baby (You've Got What It Takes)
11. At This Moment
12. Stardust
13. Whatever It Takes (bonus track)





I'm going to be honest, because that's what I'm supposed to do and when have I ever not been?

This is not my style of music. But I am open to listening to new music and giving it a shot. And while I didn't totally love all of the songs on the album I can't say that I hated or disliked any of them either.  As many of them are songs I've heard before, Buble just puts his own twist on them to give them a new sound.

Prior to listening to this album I'd only ever heard one song (Home) and while I do like that song, it's not something I'd run out and buy.

Alot of the songs on this album had a Sinatra-esque sound to them. I could see him singing in a casino lounge or something. And I know he's much bigger and better than casino lounge music, but that is just what I was reminded of.

The song Haven't Met You Yet REALLY reminded me of the theme song to Welcome Back, Kotter. I know...I'm probably not even old enough to know what that show is, let alone know the theme song...but I do.

Check it out:




The song I liked the most was Heartache Tonight.  This song was originally done by The Eagles...and it kind of has a soft spot in my heart as it's one of my favorites to sing at the karaoke bar.

Like I mentioned earlier, Crazy Love is available for purchase right now. Click here to purchase it right now!
