Michael Buble' is the greatest! - Review written on February 27, 2008
* * * * *
Rating: 5 out of 5

This man is so vibrant, has such a warm, rich, full voice, is so innovative and fun that you can't resist him. He excels at old standards but also spans several decades with some of the the songs he does and now has three original songs too. I would also recommend his CD/DVD "Caught in The Act" and CD "Michael Buble'"

Enjoy, I have been!!!

An amazing young man who appeals to a wide audience. He will be remembered as an equal to those whose songs he sings and "makes his own".

That this was just home made bad video, so irritating. This was definitely not worth $20. If you want a professional quality concert, I would recommend buying Michael Buble's Caught in the Act.

This is a dynamite duo: cd/dvd!!! I first heard Michael Buble music in the Spring of 2005. The first purchase was It's Time, which is mind-blowing good!!! Come fly with me is awesome! The music is out of this world, and in my opinion, he sounds better than the original singers in the remakes he sings. WOW!!! The DVD is great! It shows his sense of humor, as well as his sensitive side. And there is no denying that he is an absolutely talented and amazing singer! The band is second to none as well! My impression of his talent was cemented even further when I saw his Concert in Spokane, WA in July of 2006. He never missed a beat and his voice was perfectly in tune. I have shared my excitement about his music and how it has touched my life with all of my friends, and have converted many of them to also be faithful fans of Michael's music. I now own almost all of his CD's and cannot wait to get the next one!

I ALMOST DID NOT BUY THIS DVD/CD BECAUSE OF THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS I READ ON AMAZON, HOWEVER AFTER SEEING MICHAEL BUBLE IN CONCERT , AND SEEING WHAT HE GIVES OF HIMSELF TO HIS AUDIENCE , I WANTED TO SEE ALL THERE WAS TO SEE AND BOUGHT IT, HOW BAD COULD IT BE? IT IS WONDERFUL , BESIDES HIS AMAZING TALENT , THIS DVD IS FUN, FUNKY , AND SO ENTERTAINING, YES THERE IS LOTS OF CAMERA MOVEMENT , WITH OFF STAGE ANTICS INTERSPURSED WITH ON STAGE MUSIC, NOT THE TYPICAL CONCERT DVD, FOR THAT GET THE WONDERFUL "CAUGHT IN THE ACT" BUT ANYONE WHO WANTS TO SEE ANOTHER SIDE OF THIS YOUNG, TALENTED, HUMBLE, GIVING, ENTERTAINER SEE THIS AND ENJOY !!! GLAD I DECIDED YES!!!

Love Michael Buble, but this was more like a home made movie of someone using their camcorder from the audience. Parts of Michael's head was cut off, and then; sometimes, his whole head was cut off. Most of the time, the camera man didn't expect where Michael was going to move to and you'll get a jerky movement of the camera man trying to get Michael back into the picture. I wish they would have said in the description that this was more of a documentary than a concert. That this was just home made videos. This was definitely not worth $20. If you want a professional quality concert, I would recommend buying Michael Buble's Caught in the Act. Caught in the Act was worth the $20 bucks. You get professional camera men who anticipated Michael's movements, and parts of his head was never cut off like Come Fly with Me's DVD. Also, the sound quality on Caught in the Act was way better. Now, I understand why some places sold Come Fly with Me DVD's and had the word enhanced after it. The DVD that I received was not enhanced. Anyways, skip this one, and get "Caught in the Act" instead.

Being a big fan of Sinatra I was hesitant about the claims that Michael Buble was the next "Ole Blue Eyes" and held off purchasing any cds...BUT!!! was pleasantly surprised when I got to hear and watch this performer in action. There is only one Frank but I think Michael Buble has his own sound which is easy to get lost in. The man swept me away. Buy this cd! Buy all his cds! You will NOT be disappointed!

Michael Buble sings songs associated with Frank Sinatra and Bobby Darin and makes them his own. He's so talented with a dreamy voice and a lot of charm and charisma. The DVD follows him on tour and behind the scenes. I loved seeing the man behind the wonderful voice. You'll love this CD/DVD set and play it over and over.

The whole production is very amateurish. There is not one clear image from the concert. Michael's singing is the only saving grace here. If you're new to Buble, don't start with this one. Buble's new live concert DVD - Caught In The Act is awsome. For Michael's fans, this is still a delight. You can tell how much Michael's singing and live performance has matured during these short couple of years.

I saw Michael during his concert in Tampa so watching him on the DVD was exciting. Enjoyed learning more about him as a person as well as a entertainer. He is awesome to watch. His band is outstanding. A CD and DVD, what a great package for the money. The CD is played at home and at work. Buble has it all; great voice, great music, it's a must have to enjoy again and again.

Mr. Michael Buble seems to have it all, from his boyish good looks to his superb voice and sense of humor.
While the style of this live-in-concert is a little chopped for my liking, overall it portrays him as a humble and healthy young man who loves what he does and makes no bones about it.
The personal glimpses into his life allow for us to see that he loves the genre he sings and feels a strong bond with those fans who support him.
This is definately a dvd that you will replay over and over.

What a package! The CD is great and it offers a chance to compare studio versions with the DVD live versions of the same songs. Mega bonus here....the DVD has three of the "sessions@AOL" songs! "The Way You Look Tonight" will break your heart!

The DVD has one flaw which makes it appear that it was edited by someone on a really strange acid trip! The constant cut aways from Michael singing on stage are a bit annoying but many of the cuts go straight to footage of Michael talking about many different aspects of his life and they are quite interesting. The main fault is that when you do see Michael singing in concert, the cuts, superimpositions and the speed with which they are carried out left me with the distinct feeling that the producer/director/editor of the film footage did not feel that a straight-on shot of Michael could hold a Bublé fan's attention for more than three seconds. Proof positive that they didn't know squat about Michael's fans and also that they should never be allowed to work on a video project concerning Michael ever again. Fortunately the up close and personal shots of Michael talking about his life/career provide some redemption for the psychedelics of the editing.

It's beautifully packaged and on the inside, it has the famous photo of Michael showing off two buttons worth of his chest and it's 5X5!

If this guy doesn't get your pulse going, no one will. He bubbles with personality and has those two qualities few are born with called charisma and charm.
Backstage, onstage or just goofing around Michael Buble gives you 100% of himself and that says a lot. We haven't heard anyone sing songs like this in 25 years and say thank God for Michael remembering how it's done.
My nieces think he's something else and for once we can agree on something.

A very poor recording. Loses a lot being recorded off the speakers in that venue. Could have been a great C.D. if it had not been recorded live. Michael has a fantastic talent, but it is wasted on this. I would send this back, if I could. Buy the
"It's Time" recording, if you wish to listen to real talent, and
an outstanding musical background. I would not wish this one on
my worst enemy.
Michael Bublé Shines Again! - Review written on May 06, 2005

Rating: 5 out of 5

Michael Bublé shines again with this wonderful CD/DVD treat! Produced by David Foster and Humberto Gatica and backed-up by a full big band orchestra, this is a follow-up to his successful and most raved-about CD "Michael Bublé."

Listening to the CD is just terrific with eight fabulous tracks, but the DVD is a real delight watching him perform twelve timeless classics and not to mention the interview footages in between his outstanding and remarkable performances.

One of the songs Mr. Bublé performed on the DVD is very memorable and brings back a lot of memories to me, "The Way You Look Tonight," which is my all-time favorite and so much a part of my life! And it is the very first non-classical piece that I learned to play on piano. I remember my sister Ruth arranged a medley of this lovely song with "Blue Moon" that we both loved to play together.

"The Way You Look Tonight"
~ Words and Music by Jerome Kern & Dorothy Fields ~

Someday, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight...

You're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight...

With each word your tenderness grows
Tearin' my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart...

Lovely, never ever change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it 'cause I love you...
Just the way you look tonight.

Most of the songs rendered are included in his "Michael Bublé" CD with the exception of "Can't Help Falling In Love," "Mack The Knife," "You'll Never Know," "My Funny Valentine" and Sinatra's signature song and one of my all-time favorites, "Nice 'N' Easy," which he performed splendidly in every way. There's no doubt that Mr. Bublé is a total performer with his amazing stage presence and his marvelous voice, which is his greatest asset.

I've ordered this CD/DVD combo from Amazon.com over a year ago and that makes this review a "late-bloomer" but as the saying goes. . . "It's better late than never!"

Strongly recommended!

Take classic material, give it to a decent voice, and put video cameras in the hands of idiots and this is what you get. The editing is totally disrespectful to the material; and, then, you have to wonder why Buble didn't have the brains to realize that it's dispresectful to him, as well. Why would anyone with a measurable IQ ever consent to a project like this one, in which the goal was obviously to distract the listener's/viewer's attention from the performance? You've got to wonder.

Well, the goal was achieved. And that's for starters. It gets worse. Shameful. What a waste. Next time, Michael, hire a producer who's stopped sucking his thumb and who's old enough to drive.
