    As an avid/ardent Bublé fan (who isn’t??) I bought this hoping it would include intimate details. It is only sheetmusic, but anything Bublé is worth having!

    I play piano and dabble at the sax and have enjoyed learning to play the tunes I have come to love when they are sung by the best voice of our time.

    A good buy and worth the few dollars.

    After placing my order, I waited with great anticipation for the arrival of the Michael Buble Songbook. The word “pathetic” would almost be too kind a word to describe this sad collection of songs that that bears Michael Buble’s name. This is a collection of songs that were originally sold individually as sheet music in the 30′s, 50′s, 60′s, 70′s and 80′s. There has been no effort to update these old pieces of sheet music to reflect the fresh approach that was used for this music on Michael Buble’s self-titled release. I have seen other compilations of songs for artists such as Jamie Cullum that have been re-arranged to reflect the new approach that these new artists have given this material. The description for Michael Buble’s song book uses the phrase “Includes his refreshing renditions of:” – followed by a song listing, implying that the songbook contains new versions of these songs as they appear on his debut cd. I’m sorry to see that Michael Buble’s people have seen fit to allow the release a songbook of old, outdated sheet music. I can only assume that this was done in order to cash in on a talented artists debut cd by using the picture from his album and filling the pages with old, outdated versions of the songs that were so fresh and vibrant on his debut cd release. Michael Buble deserves a better representation of his outstanding debut cd than he got with this outdated songbook release.

    As a pianist and vocalist for over 25 years, I used to expect only the highest quality in printed music from Hal Leonard. Unfortunately, this songbook does not live up to my expectations. Not even one of the songs in the songbook even begins to reflect the arrangements on the Michael Bublé CD. Instead, Hal Leonard has compiled standard, run-of-the-mill renditions of these songs and has chosen to market them as a Michael Bublé songbook. In my opinion, this borders on false advertising. Yes…all of the “titles” are there, but none of the actual Michael Bublé “arrangements” seems to have found its way into this songbook. This is a songbook with arrangements that are pedestrian, unexceptional, nondescript and quite unlike Michael Bublé, whose arrangements are innovative, extraordinary and remarkable. I must say that I am surprised that Mr. Bublé’s managers have allowed Hal Leonard to publish such trash. If Hal Leonard is not ashamed of this publication, they ought to be.
