Editorial Review: Album Description: Melding the contemporary and the classic in ways only he can, Michael Buble has created his most complete studio effort yet. Ranging from "I've Got The World On a String" to "Me and Mrs. Jones," in addition to two new songs co-written by Michael, Call Me Irresponsible makes this album irresistible. Amazon.com: It's no coincidence that Michael Bublé's new album starts with just his voice and some fingersnaps on "The Best Is Yet to Come," a song made famous by Frank Sinatra. The Canadian smoothie looks longingly towards early-'60s Vegas, an impression quickly reinforced when a boisterous horn section makes its grand entrance, about 20 seconds into the track. That Bublé means business is confirmed by the second cut, a fast-paced take on Henry Mancini's "It Had Better Be Tonight," and of course by the CD's very title, another song identified with Sinatra as his cockiest. There are just a few sidesteps from the retro formula that's served Bublé so well so far: a languid duet with Brazilian star Ivan Lins on the bossa "Wonderful Tonight," a gospel choir on "That's Life." Interestingly, Bublé co-wrote the best of those sidesteps, "Everything," a Norah Jones-esque number that alluringly harks back to sunny '70s pop. It's also the only song on the album produced by Bob Rock (best known for his work with Metallica), sending out a strong signal that Bublé should reach out to unlikely collaborators more often. --Elisabeth Vincentelli More Music from Michael Bublé

A lovely voice with a full range, incredible control and phrasing, and that special building of anticipation that the greats have, fill this musical collection of older and more modern music. The musicians are also wonderful and conducted superbly well. Rating: - GREAT FOR ROMANCEI ENJOYED ALL OF THE SONGS AND WAS INTRODUCED TO SOME NEW ONES. IF YOU'RE ROMANTIC OR NOSTALGIC....THIS CD IS FOR YOU......GO ROMANCE!!!!!! Rating: - But still....The guy's got a lisp (pronounced lithp). Really...listen closely. Still, it's a fantastic cd. Rating: - Always On My Mind - A good musical lesson I received gratefullyI just like to comment on one track - "You Were Always On My Mind"! Yes! This track has been on my mind when I first took this album home months ago. Again, when Buble was on tour in Sydney last month - the arrangement and delivery of this number LIVE (!) was - Intimate yet level-headed, Tender yet Passionate, Flawless and yet vulnerable. It presses my first tear-duct button during the concert :) I was absolutely indifferent, if not dislikening, the original version of this song, which ...
