Michael Bublé has been dubbed the King of Christmas, even though he has released only one Christmas album.
So when Christmastime comes around, so do the memes. The most famous one is of him emerging from his cave for the holiday season. It’s funny, right?
Last week, when the crooner was on The Graham Norton Show, the host wanted to know what he thinks of it. And The Voice coach doesn’t find it as funny as all of us and his friends because people think he really lives in a cave. I know I thought that is where he lives in Canada. He doesn’t.
It is not all bad news. Did you know that his album Christmas has been the #1 Christmas record in Australia since 2011? He does, and he has a message for the “smart and wonderful people” from Down Under. It is, “I am so thankful for the money!” Not as much as his kids, Noah, 12, Elias, 9, Vida, 7, and Cielo, 3.
I love how self-deprecating he can be! We all need to be able to laugh at ourselves, even in front of the whole world.
‘Tis the season that everywhere you go, you either hear Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas, Brenda Lee’s Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree, or Michael Bublé’s It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.
While the two females are like cha-ching, the Canadian feels our pain because his song follows him everywhere he goes too.
I would feel bad for him, but he did it to himself. And more importantly, he did it to us.
However, it is nice to see him suffering because of it! So every time you hear that holiday tune, picture this and smile! And that is what Christmas joy is all about.
The Voice will be back on NBC in the Fall for its 28th season with Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, Snoop Dogg, and Niall Horan.
Even though the show will not return to the airwaves for two months, they are filming the auditions as you read this. Michael Bublé gave an update on how things are going so far: “I’m back in the big red chair! And no joke, I smashed my button so hard yesterday that it broke. The talent on season 28 is ”
Who knew those buzzers were real? But they are, and now we know that they are breakable if you hit them too hard.
BTW, I think this is the most aggressive thing a Canadian has done when they weren’t playing hockey.
It is the first time that Michael Bublé, John Legend, returning coach Adam Levine, and new coach Kelsea Ballerini worked together on The Voice. They might be new to each other, but when they sing, they sound like they have known each other forever.
Case in point. The Crooner, the R&B artist, the Popstar, and the Country singer sang Elton John’s classic Tiny Dancer, and the four totally different musicians sounded like one when they harmonized to the chorus.
So, if they can sing that well together, imagine what they are going to accomplish when they are sitting in the red chairs. It is going to be music to our ears.
How much music to our ears? We will have to tune in starting Monday when The Voice returns to NBC.
