Product Description
'Crazy Love', Michael Bublé's first CD in two and a half years, features two original songs along with his always original take on 11 standards from various eras. The multi-Grammy winning artist hunkered down in recording studios in LA, Brooklyn, New York and his hometown of Vancouver for the last six months to make his 'ultimate record about the inevitable roller coaster ride of relationships.' The first single, 'Haven't Met You Yet,' written by Bublé (with Alan Chang and Amy Foster) is scheduled to be released to radio on August 31st. Additional tunes on the album include 'Cry Me A River,' 'You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You,' 'Georgia On My Mind' and 'Baby (You've Got What It Takes)' which was performed with Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings. The title song is a cover of the Van Morrison gem 'Crazy Love.' The CD closes out with a haunting version of 'Stardust' which is performed with the acapella group Naturally 7. The album was produced by David Foster, Bob Rock and Humberto Gatica.

 WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! March 17, 2010
DJ PHILLY B? (Palm Bch. Gardens Fl.)
Crazy Love is one of Buble's best. "Cry Mr A River" is a wonderful, my father-in-law cryed when heard it. "Haven't Meet You Yet" just makes you smile, and bop around. If you like Mr. Buble, get this CD.
It will make your day!
The very BEST yet March 16, 2010
Sandy (Reston, VA)
I have all of Michael's CDs. This is by far the very best. Wait until you here his version of "Cry Me a River". I always thought Julie London owned it until Michael's version. Iis wonderful to actually here someone who can sing. Screaming, moaning and groaning at high octaves it NOT singing. Can Michael sing or can he?
Happy hour March 16, 2010
JHM Van Der Meer (Netherlands)
Crazy Love from Michael Buble gives me an hour of happiness. The sound, the songs and ... that voice. Great cd for every fan. Never a dull moment.
Made me swoon March 16, 2010

I knew I would like the CD because of his smooth voice and talent, but I absolutely adore it! His remake of Georgia on My Mind was out of this world-- would have loved to have heard a duet with Ray Charles. The selection of songs to go on the CD is varied, with a nice mix of soulful and upbeat. Well worth the buy!!
Not his best, but better than most artists out there today! March 5, 2010

I am not only a Michael Buble fan, I am also myself a former professional singer. I think the thing I appreciate the most about Buble is that he is willing to take chances with his interpretations. I also know from seeing him in live performance that the man is a complete professional, a true artist, and knows how to connect with the music and his audience. I appreciate all those qualities. To me, that's what makes an artist true to his craft.
I am for the most part pleased with all the cuts on this new CD, but a couple of them I find myself skipping over as they are just a bit too lackluster for my taste. Here's my breakdown; 'Cry Me a River' is brilliant. It is by far the best cut on the CD, closely followed by 'All I Do is Dream of You' (what a great treatment of an old classic!). Both arrangements are genius. 'All of Me' is a great take on a great standard. I am not enthralled with 'Georgia', 'Crazy Love', or 'Baby, You've Got What it Takes'. But 'Haven't Met You Yet' is so infectious I find myself humming it all the time, which to me is a hallmark of great songwriting. 'Heartache Tonight' is fabulous as is 'You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You'. And 'Stardust' has a most interesting treatment, though not the best I've heard. And I am so attached to that song, I know it inside out. Which leads me to one of my few criticisms of Mr. Buble; I wish he would stop messing around with the lyrics on standards. I can understand and appreciate changing a lyric occasionally to lend a certain emphasis, but he does it constantly. What I find ends up happening then is that novices who then proceed to learn these songs from him learn the lyrics wrong, and over time the lyrics then become bastardized. Not what the composer intended, I assure you! Please Michael, just sing it correctly at least the first time in the song, then you can change it around to suit your interpretation. Sorry, this is just a pet peeve of mine and I hate it that one of the new champions of classic music of this sort resorts to this.
One more thing; I am completely put off by 'Hold On', but then I was not a big fan of his composition 'Home' either. They just sound like songwriter night material to me, which usually ends up being the dregs left over after the good stuff gets kept by the producer. Stick with the uptempo material, Michael! You're a good writer, I'm just not a fan of your ballads.
