Favourite Jazz Singer- Michael Buble


Easy, relax yet sexy. This what described Jazz. If you like Jazz, probably you should like him- Michael Buble, a singer from Canada. Michael Buble well-known with his nice vocal. The sexy tone, his accent for each and every words seems hard for an Asian singer to do the same thing as he did.


His first album titled with his name "Michael Buble" in 2003 had knocked into top 10 album in UK,Australia and Canada. Then," Come fly with me" in 2004 was listed in Billboard music video charts. However, he only reached commercial success in US in 2005 with his album "It's time". This year, his third album "Call Me Irresponsible" has sold over 12 million albums. "Everything" from that album reaching success on the adult contempory charts. He also got 2 Grammy nominations.

His new CD, which he calls “my remark on the state of love,” contains a depth of feeling that will surprise and delight long-term fans and impress those new to his music. He probably did it very well. His third album might be the best album from him for now. The 9th song in this album "Everything" could be the best song he ever sang. I like this song.

Buble caught my attention because he is a male singer from Europe that sing jazz while most of the others singing rock&roll, R&B, or maybe soft songs like James Blunt etc. But I prefer those soft and relax songs sang by Buble. Like what I said he did certain things that Asian singers can't do. It's the style, the flavor and the type of jazz. It's soft but yet some hard feel in it. It's take a lot of skill like the way you sang words by words, sentences by sentences but different feel in different words. Making the last note of each sentence being smooth and a bit curve.A bit like blues. Buble sang it extremely well. It make people feel light and easy, and not forget to say its sexy. "Everything" could be a very good evidence for it but personally I still prefer the 5th song in his "It's time" that's the "Home". It really give you a kind of feel that walking on a beautiful street in another country but you miss home and you are going home.

Buble may still far for being the best Jazz or vocal singer, but he is a young and potential singer. He might not be the best but he is on the way to there. Who knows he wouldn't made him an Icon for jazz?

This is the end for introduction of Michael Buble. (Jazz and Blues)
