I was given a copy of Michael Buble's newest album "To Be Loved," in exchange for my honest review. Honestly, it's great. I'm a Michael Buble fan, and this didn't disappoint.
I'm always nervous to hear cover songs, especially when the originals are so so good. Thank goodness Buble knows what he's doing! He said "The album swings big time: it rocks, it's soulful, it's happy, sometimes a little sad. It's romantic, it's yummy, and it's heartfelt." I couldn't describe it better, that's exactly what the album is.
He covers songs by Frank Sinatra, the Bee Gees, Jackson 5, Elvis Presley, Van Morrison and more. Did you read that list? Those are some amazing artists, and I believe he did them proud. There are also four original songs co-written by Buble, which he says are inspirations from his own personal life. I've said it before, I love hearing a song that is written from personal experience.
One of my favorites (it is seriously hard to choose) on the album is "Close Your Eyes." Such a sweet song. Again, love that it's written about his life. He said he wrote it about his wife.
The other song I really liked was "Something Stupid" this song is so fun. It also features one of my favorites, Reese Witherspoon!
Regardless of the "kind" of music you like, you really need to listen to this album. It's such a pick me up album, and I really did enjoy every song. Refer to that list of covered artists, you can't go wrong.
It helps that he's a handsome pants too.
