But Michael, a great fan of Christmas and the music that has been created about the season, dreamed of the day when he could do a full Christmas record...for realz--an album for which he could pick the tunes, set the arrangements, choose a few special guest stars to share it with--a true Michael Buble Christmas record.
That time has come and Michael Buble has created "Christmas"--an album he hopes will be as beloved and lasting as the Bing Crosby Christmas albums he grew up on.
There's been a slow motion promotional roll out of details on the set to help build excitement for the release on October 24. But Michael needn't have bothered. People were quite excited about the album already. Afterall, "Let It Snow" was a mere 5 tracks long. Add in a duet with Country star Shania Twain, who has been absent from the holiday genre far too long, and, brother, people are ready for this.
"Christmas" features 15 tracks in all, most of them familiar standards. Buble includes a few more recent "standards" as well, Darlene Love's "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" from the 60s, a duet with emerging Latin star Thalia on the 70s classic from Jose Feliciano, "Feliz Navidad", and, in a tip to the most popular holiday song of most recent vintage, he covers Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You".
In addition to Thalia and Shania Twain (who joins Michael for a Drifters inspired arrangement of "White Christmas"), the Puppini Sisters are along for a joyous "Jingle Bells". And those who purchase the limited edition version, exclusively available at MichaelBuble.com, will also get to hear a cappella's Naturally 7 lending a hand on "Silver Bells".
It sounds like Michael Buble had a lot of fun creating "Christmas" and I've always said that's an element that can make all the difference in the world. So the stars, it would seem, are perfectly aligned. "Christmas" promises to be a true delight. Be there or be square.
