(6 Customer Reviews)
Michael Buble ranks among the best of the contemporary crooners working in a classic pop-vocal style, and his 2007 album, CALL ME IRRESPONSIBLE, further refines his suave, smooth style. With its finger-snapping big band arrangements, the album has its share of homage to Frank and Dino, both obvious cornerstones of Buble's music. But this isn't merely a retro exercise; the tunes, the production, and the overall feel are decidedly contemporary.
Stylistically adventurous versions of songs by Eric Clapton, Leonard Cohen, and Willie Nelson keep things lively, while "Everything," a Buble original, is one of the album's highlights. Still, cuts like the lead-off track ("The Best Is Yet to Come") and the old chestnut "I've Got the World on a String" will give listeners looking for some elegant, back-in-the-day pizzazz exactly that.Down Beat (p.76) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "This CD is best when Buble wraps himself around the brass and reeds of a straight-up big band....John Hamilton and David Foster also provide a few high spots." JazzTimes (p.91) - "[Buble] suggests the caramel-smooth creaminess of Steve Lawrence, the sensual warmth of Vic Damone, the swingin' bravura of Dean Martin and the boyish showmanship of Wayne Newton."

I love the range of songs he performs on this album. He goes from the groovy track 'Everything' to a Bossa Nove in 'Comin' Home Baby' and a Latin in "It had Better Be Tonight". He has also done some great covers of the old jazz classics. Michael Buble you star!! JAZZ LIVES ON!! Submitted by Chris (Perth, Western Australia) Was This Review Helpful?

Michael Buble: Respecting the Past in the Present I've always loved singers...the ones you never forget, like Sinatra, Bennett, with that big band sound. Michael's keepin' that alive, but in a very modern way. He's a very versatile guy, going from brash up-tempo big-band arrangements to beautiful ballads. I keep listening to this album over and over...and it never gets old. It's fresh, hip, and a great tribute to the greats who inspire Michael...and he's returning the favor.

Amazing... Buble Does It Again. Amazing cd, with beautiful renditions on classic songs. I love the duet with Boys 2 Men on "Comin' Home Baby". I haven't heard anything from Boys 2 Men in a long time, so it was refreshing to hear them team up Michael Buble for an amazing song. This cd is top notch... Everyone should pick it up anyway they can!!! Submitted by Ccladonia (Toronto, ON, Canada.) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 0 of 1 found this helpful.
A must own C.D!!!! Just when it seems like Buble can't top his last c.d,he does it and he does it well!!!My favorite song was his remake of Wonderful Tonight with Ivan Lins.It was better than the original done by Clapton!If for no other reason,listen to this disc and understand why people love to listen to him.It would be good in the future if he sings with Peter Cincotti or Jane Monheit again.

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 ...

Call Me Irresponsible
$11.65 Michael Buble's third major US release (including the mostly live COME FLY WITH ME) stays on message--this young Canadian loves the lush, swaying music of his parents' and grandparents' generations. Buble's albums, however, are much more than mere back-in-the-day exercises. The production and arranging of David Foster (Celine Dion, Josh Groban) is eclectic in a way that firmly places the tunes at the dawn of the 21st century, and, more importantly, Buble possesses the chops and sense of style to re-imagine the adult-contemporary vocal genre in a distinctive manner. In addition to standards by Gershwin and Porter, Buble embraces a variety of sounds, from Motown ("How Sweet It Is") to bossa nova ("Quando, Quando, Quando" with Nelly Furtado) to the Beatles ("Can't Buy Me Love" with a "She Loves You" tag). With his smooth croon and charming persona, Buble ...
