Producers: David Foster, Humberto Gatica, Johnny Mandel. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Right off the bat, Michael Buble has you in his corner just because you know people have been calling the poor guy "Bubble" all his life (keep that accent on the second syllable, folks). Nomenclature aside, Buble's debut album positions him as something of a Harry Connick, Jr. for the 21st century. His husky croon gives him a bearing beyond his tender years, and in fact his Sinatra-phrased, pop-jazz style bears strong echoes of Connick's singing. Accordingly, the production leans heavily on the updated swing of chestnuts like "Fever" and "Come Fly With Me," but that's only part of the story. As a modern song stylist, Buble digs into the standards of a more contemporary songbook as well. George Michael's jazzy ballad "Kissing a Ballad" has been a standard-in-waiting for some time, and a version of the Bee Gees' soulful ballad "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart" features a guest turn by Barry Gibb himself. And there are worse things that could happen to Stevie Wonder's "For Once in My Life" than to be given the big-band treatment. It's refreshing to hear the debut of a young singer who's simply applying a strong voice and style to quality songs instead of cynically treading the teen-pop treadmill.

Top Reviews Review created: 03/10/06(updated 03/13/06) by: 8 of 9 people found this review helpful. Im giving Michael Buble's 'Michael Buble' a 5/5 rating even though I do think its inferior to his latest album "It's Time"... how does that work? Well I would actually rank "It's Time" as better than 5/5! The mark of Michael Buble is his strong, crisp voice that translates so well across genres and sounds. The mark of "Michael Buble" is the album's throwback style - from Moondance to Come Fly With Me - Buble takes on some of the great songs ever produced or sang... and plants his own style and sound on it. The album is fantastic in the foreground and also plays nicely as background music for parties or dinners. Excellent and highly recommended! 1. Fever 2. Moondance 3. Kissing A Fool 4.

I don't think there is a single song I don't enjoy hearing. I also have It's Time and Call Me Irresponsible. I think they are all very comparable.
