Christmas song of the day: “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” Michael Buble
For Throwback Thursday – Michael Buble’s terrific traditional take on this holiday favorite.
Buble’s Christmas CD is really one of the best – great mix of songs with some sung in a straight-forward/no new-fangled manner, and some swung with some big band sound.
You can check it out on Amazon.
Merry, merry!

Another reason to love Michael Buble
Michael Buble was performing during the iHeartRadio LIve concert at the P.C. Richard & Son Theater in NYC Nov. 8, when he made his feelings about Kardashian crystal clear the New York Post reports.
“Ladies and gentleman, I have a very special guest,” he announced to the audience. “Please welcome Kim Kardashian.”
But, after a short pause, Buble shot back, “Nah, just f**king with you! That bitch isn’t coming on my stage,” before transitioning into his cover of Nina Simone’s classic “Feeling Good,” which he said was dedicated to Kris Humphries.

| Michael, Michael Buble and I |
I got to meet Bublé a few years ago at an Academy Awards party, and he was very charming, very nice and uber talented. At one point in the party, super-producer David Foster invited him to get on stage and sing, and Michael gave an impromptu performance that was terrific. I had been a fan before, and was even moreso after.
