“My new record is about love, happiness, fun and yummy
things. Getting to work with my friend and long-time collaborator Bob Rock
(“Call Me Irresponsible”, “Crazy Love” and “Christmas”) who produced the entire
album was very exciting. We’re a good
team. I love the songs we selected this time out. It was also terrific working
once again with my song writing partners” explains crooner Michael Bublé about his new
release, To Be Loved. The CD is set for release on 15 April. The first single,
“It’s A Beautiful Day” is digitally available. “To Be Loved”, Michael’s sixth
studio album follows his “Christmas” CD which sold seven million copies
internationally and was the number two biggest selling album of 2011 (after Adele). “To Be Loved” produced by
Bob Rock was recorded in Vancouver and Los Angeles and includes a mix of
standards as well as four original songs all co-written by Michael. “After All”
one of the four originals was co-written and performed by fellow Canadian Bryan
Adams. The new album also includes hits
previously recorded by some of Michael’s musical heroes including the Bee Gees
hit “To Love Somebody”, Dean Martin’s
“Nevertheless (I’m In Love With You”), the Jackson 5 early ‘70’s smash “Who’s
Loving You”, Jackie Wilson’s “To Be Loved” and the Elvis Presley classic “Have
I Told You Lately”. Michael is joined by
actress Reese Witherspoon on the classic Frank and Nancy Sinatra duet
“Something Stupid”.
