Wow, good question, how did I become a fan of his??

I think it was about 4 or 5 years ago.. I was in love with this man, who had the greatest taste in music, and loved Jazz. He then bought a Buble album when I was with him, and then because I wanted to be into the same kind of music as he was, I believe that was how I started listening to Michael. Since then, never stopped :) So in a way, I should thank that man who brought me to Michael.

I was driving with my friend in the car and she put his c.d in. Lost was the first song I heard and I made her replay it multiple times. Then she insisted she show me some more songs and played everything and OBVIOUSLY I loved it!! I took her c.d and listened to it non stop until I bought my own copy 2 days later. Ever since then he's all I listen too! It was definitely fate :)

Its strange because I never liked Sinatra or the likes but for me he just changes the songs and makes them better. His voice is out of this world and as I said the feel he gives the songs is brilliant.

My best mates mum loved him ages ago so I started listening to some of his songs then but I absolutely love The Wedding Date and 3 of his are in that and I really took to them and I have never looked back.

I was first introduced to Michael Buble by a friend of mine when he FIRST hit our Australian airways with "Sway". My friend had his album playing in her car (we were about 20 yrs old) & in all honesty I thought she was a total DAG! (or "not cool" if you're not up with Aussie slang hehe).
Then my mum started getting into him - even more reason to think he was not cool to listen too haha. So I didnt bat an eyelash and didnt give him a chance (what a cow!!!)

Then in 2005 when he was down here for the "It's Time" tour I bought tix for mum as a surprise Mothers Day present!!! on the day of the concert I had a DAY concert to go to featuring my absolute favourite artist at that time - Australian Idol Winner - Guy Sebastian. Spent the day in the soaring heat and standing for over 6 hours to see this free concert. As u can probably gather - by the end of this I was exhausted and cranky. The thought of going to another concert in a few hours - and to someone i didnt even like for that matter - made me even MORE cranky haha.

After a rush around to get ready and pick up mum we went to the Michael Buble concert at Melbournes Concert Hall - "Hamer Hal". I sat in the seat (towards the back of the balcony seats!) - just really wanting to go to SLEEP after my big day out - when BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This bloke had my uttmost attention!!!! Throughout the entire concert I was totally and utterly enthralled and delighted with this entertainer I didnt know much about!. He had my mum and I in stitches with his humour - to which I decided I could listen to ALLLL day long! His music had me swooning, swaying and sighing. He had me up in my seat dancing! AND he even MENTIONED Guy Sebastian in his jokes hahah "I love you...."....."I love you too Guy Sebastian". I was like HUH! Is this man in my HEAD haha. And when he did an imitation of Michael Jackson (my OTHER main fan obsession from the early 90's) - well - I was CONVINCED this was the artist for me! hehe.
His songs really "struck a chord" with me - some I knew, some I knew vaguely - and others I was hearing for the first time.
It wasnt until the very last words were sung - during the end of "Song For You" - when to my am amazement he drops the microphone and sings accapella to our huge capacity audience - that I realised I was "GONE"! An ignorant, cynical, skeptic was turned into a bonafied FAN!!!!
We walked out of the hall and could not stop talking excitedly about the show! I had also shared something special with my mum last night - which I will treasure forever.
So on that night I VOWED to go to as many shows as possible next time he came. It only took about 3 years *gasp!* - but we got there! And I went to 3 shows.
Now Ill be waiting for part 3 of my fan journey with Michael Buble.

Thanks for reading!

I heard about Michael when he was compared to Frank Sinatra......
The music was something I was interested in, so I started looking for
Michael Buble'. I don't remember where I saw him first, but yes I was
taken with him.

When I found out he was appearing in Reno, I jumped at the chance to
buy tickets. We had the best seats ever, after the show, I Googled him
and found this site. THAT'S WHEN I BECAME A FAN.......all of you are the
reason I am such a BIG BIG FAN. Yes, you are the reason, I do love his
music and I can't deny he's a real cutie and great to watch. But his fans
are the best......

Hugs,

Pam

The first time i heard Michael was in a t.v advert advertising the radio station magic It was around this time last year and i still remember the advert there was a lady in a car stuck in traffic and it's raining and she puts the radio on and 'Everything' come on At that time i didn't know what the song was called or who sang it but i liked it straight away and everytime i heard it in that advert the more i liked it and had to find out who sang it Then about 2 or 3 weeks later i saw it on a music channel I just caught the end of it and it said at the bottom Michael Buble - Everything I then started looking in the shops for it but i couldn't find it At this point still unaware that Everything was released last April and at that point Call Me Irresponsible was in the shops i looked on ebay and found 'Everything' on there so i bought it and i also saw Call Me Irresponsible on there as well as It's Time Michael Buble Caught In The Act and Come Fly With Me on there too I thought he was a new singer and not realised he had done those albums I still didn't know at that time that he sang jazz which i didn't like I also bought Call Me Irresponsible before i got the Everything cd from ebay thinking that all the songs were going to be the same but i was dissapointed at the fact that i spent £10 on a cd that was mostly jazz That was the first time i heard 'Lost' which i also liked In the end i sold the cd on ebay I was really pleased when i got my 'Everything' cd i couldn't stop playing it I was playing so much it got on my ex partners nerves I played it on the hi fi system on my phone on the computer and he hated it The next time i heard Michael was on the Parkinson show when he sang 'Moondance' and i loved it I thought it was catchy and since then i have been hooked I now have the albums mentioned and singles Feeling Good Everything x3(one is a promo) Home Lost It Had Better Be Tonight(remixes) Spiderman Sway(spanish promo) Comin' Home Baby(promo) I also have the Wall-Mart cd and Totally Buble and Sings Totally Blonde plus special editions of Michael Buble It's Time and Call Me Irresponsible I have also got With Love and 2 cd's with old songs on it from Babalu

I have to say that what i have written is all true I have liked Michael for about 10 months and i have to say i never thought i would like jazz as much as i do when i listen to Michael I must admit that i won't listen to all the old jazz singers (i don't know who they are i only know who sinatra is) but i will listen to Michael Apart from listening to him i like watching different things on You Tube of him like interviews things like that I think he is so funny and sexy too He has a lovely smile Everytime i watch an interview with him i can't stop laughing and now my son has started to like him and he is 7 His favourite song is Crazy Little Thing Called Love

I am a relatively new fan since the start of this year. There was a concert of Michael,s on British tv
about christmas ,New year time. I think it was live at Webster Hall. I watched it with my husband
and we both thought it was great. Well afterwards I could,nt get this Buble guy out of my head.
I went out and bought the call me irresponsible cd and then I was really smitten by him. I
played the cd to death and then in March this year my husband asked me what I would like for my birthday
so of course I said some more Buble music please ! The lovely man got me the Michael Buble cd and Come fly
with me cd/dvd and I,ts time,what a great birthday present that was ! Then I bought caught in the act,loved it
and started looking on here,now I am a proud board member here and have recently joined the BB fanclub as well.
The only thing I haven,t done yet is see Michael live could,nt go this time but will see him next time he,s here for sure.
My husband wants to see him too as he is a great Bobby Darin and Sinatra fan. Michael is great and his fans are so lovely and
friendly too,this is a great place to chat about him as we are all in agreement that he,s our man ! :D
MICHAEL,YOU'RE MY MAN BECAUSE I'VE GOT YOU UNDER MY SKIN.
BECAUSE YOU'RE SO DEEP IN MY HEART THAT YOU'RE REALLY A PART OF ME.
BECAUSE THE MORE I SEE YOU THE MORE I WANT YOU
BECAUSE I JUST ADORE YOU

You will have your chance, Sue!

I first discovered Michael's music in November 2006. When "Call Me Irresponsible" was released, I joined Bungalow B and it was then that I found out that Michael had done a concert in my hometown in October 2006 - less than a month before I found out about him!!!! I was kicking myself so hard when I found that out. I wanted to travel somewhere to see him but I just didn't have the means to do so. So of course I was absolutely THRILLED when I learned that he would be back in Albuquerque this year and I finally got to see him live! So don't fret, he'll be back around to you soon. :)

Oh, I was so upset!!! When I heard he was coming back this year, I ran SCREAMING to my husband, "GUESS WHO IS COMING TO ALBUQUERQUE???????????" and he was like "It's Michael Buble, isn't it?" LOL

Thanks for the compliment, I'm glad you liked my pictures. The ones in my signature are my favorites. I love being able to look at them and be reminded of the concert. I hope I get to go again soon! :)

I came across his self-titled album (with "Come Fly with Me) on one of the listen stations at Barnes and Noble. I was looking for a gift for my Dad for Father's Day, so I started listening to the album and really liked what I heard, and I thought he'd love the fact that there was a Beegees remake on there. So I bought the album. His song, "Home" would hit radio stations for another two years.

I became a fan in '04? '06? It was while I was deployed and I saw him in "Totally Blonde" and fell...off my chair...literally! LOL! It was during Meg's dream sequence and the faces Michael and Brody (Brad) were making had us laughing so hard...we fell off of the bench (if you have seen the movie, you know that wasn't the funniest part but you had to be there for the conversation). Honestly, Meg's story has always been a dream of mine (find a gorgeous man to sing his way into my heart, you know what I mean). And when I heard his voice...*sigh*, he had me hook, line, and sinker...and I'm not complaining!

I became a fan this summer. During band camp.
Our drum major plugged her iPod into the big stereo while we were waiting for everybody to show up, and the first song that began to play was "Feeling Good". I knew I HAD to remember this, so I put some of the lyrics into my cell phone so I could search for it later (it would've been much easier to just hear "and I'm Feeling Good" but everybody was talking :]
Ever since then I've purchased
Michael Bublé
It's Time
Call Me Irresponsible
Best buy of my life! Ha!

Hehe, i was a boy at the time. living in singapore and my dad, my own babbino, he played all these little jazz hits at home when he came back from work. so i grew up with Bo Jangles and these wonderful songs. Then i came across my grandad's old Sinatra records and listened to them. Next thing i know, i'm a Sinatra fan and all was good until i had heard all his music and was at a lost. then i heard about this Canadian touring in the Crooner genre and thought "maybe i'll give this a look see, there was alotta hype about it. So i listened in and next thing i know, i'm singing Swing and jazz as a hobby and my musical outlook turned immediately to jazz. Now i sing jazz as a hobby with the school's big band. and occassionally i give concerts for friends and family. One thing i'd like to know is where i can learn some of those funny little italian songs he sings on TV sometimes, i just can't seem to figure out what they are. does anyone know?

Michael sang at my wedding!

Not really, but the DJ had plenty of his songs cued up at our wedding reception. That was in June of 2004. We got to pick the music of course and I had selected so many, our entire dinner hour was all Michael, Frank, Dean, and Bobby. It was magical.

Then in 2005 I saw him in concert. He ran through the crowd and I got to be one of the lucky ones to get a hug, and I kissed him on his cheek. I was HOOKED!

I saw him again in Chicago in 2006.

In 2007 I had heart surgery, it was supposed to be an outpatient procedure, so I was awake through most of it. I got lots of well wishes and support from people on this board. Before, and after. Anyway, during the procedure I had my son's iPod and he had every MB cd he could get his hands on put on there for me. When I was waking up out of the procedure, the song that was playing in my ears was "How Do You Mend A Broken Heart." It was hilarious! How appropriate for the moment. It was just another moment in my life that was stamped forever with Michael Buble playing in the background.

I saw him in STL earlier this year and again in Knoxville on this past Sunday.

Needless to say, I am a HUGE fan!

I first saw Michael on the starbucks commercial and fell in love with his voice and I also thought that he looked cute. Later on I finally looked him up on iTunes and after hearing some samples, I rushed out to buy Let it snow and Call me Irresponsible. I LOVED THEM! I went right back out and bought It's time and Michael Buble. I've been following him closely for over a year now and finally I joined up here at the boards.
