Ever since his album debuted in February of 2003, Michael Buble has taken the music world by storm. His “crooner” vocal style put him in the group of singers that consists of Dean Martin, Bing Crosby, and Frank Sinatra, and with the Michael Buble tour traveling around the world, people are cramming the box offices for a chance to see him live in concert. If Michael is the reason we go to the concert, then the band and Michael are the reason we stay. Working with a thirteen person band, Michael Buble ties his big voice with a big band, and their jazz sounds sets them apart for most contemporary groups. The band and Michael have enjoyed world reknowned fame and success. The debut called Michael Buble featured Michael Buble’s version some older, beloved songs such as “For Once in My Life” and “The Way You Look Tonight”, and some of the songs reached the Top 30 on the Billboard chart. The album reached to Gold status and helped to push the band towards the success of the next album: It’s Time. It’s Time again featured Michael and his band covering a number of prerecorded songs, but it also featured a song that was co-written by Michael and his piano player/ music director, Alan Chang. “Home” was a huge success for the album, and the album reached number seven on the Billboard Top 200. As well as many of the songs getting high numbers in different music charts, Michael and the band were also honored at the 2006 Juno Awards when they won the Pop Album of the Year Award. After the success of It’s Time, Michael then released the album Call Me Irresponsible, and this album debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 chart. By the second week the album was out, it had landed in the number one spot. Most of this album contained the same “big band” style music that was usual on a Michael Buble album, but it also featured the song “Everything” in a more contemporary style. With numerous singles and high music chart ratings, this album has proven to be Michael Buble’s biggest success. Now Michael and the band are set to release in October 2009 the album called Crazy Love. It is sure to further place Michael Buble in a class all his own in the world of contemporary music.
