When he was a teenager, he slept with his Bible and prayed to become a singer.. Oprah.com . 9 October 2009.
Fekadu, Mesfin. . SFGate.com . 21 October 2009. Bublé's interest in jazz music began around age five when his family played Bing Crosby 's Merry Christmas (Bing Crosby album)|White Christmas album at Christmas time. New Straits Times 16 July 2009Hiltbrand, David. Knight Ridder / The San Diego Union-Tribune|Tribune . NCTimes.com. 24 March 2004. The first time that his family noticed his singing talent was at Christmas time when Bublé was 13 years old, and they heard him powerfully sing the phrase "May your days be merry and bright" when the family was singing to the song " White Christmas (song)|White Christmas " in a car ride.

Bublé had a strong passion for ice hockey and wanted to become a professional ice hockey player for the Vancouver Canucks growing up, but believed he was not good at it, stating: "I wanted so bad to be a hockey player... If I was any good at hockey, I probably wouldn't be singing right now."Armstrong, Denis. . Ottawa Sun , Jam.canoe.ca. Bublé often played hockey in his youth,Gold, Kerry. CTV Olympics. 1 February 2010. watched Vancouver Canucks games with his father,Canadian Press. SportingNews.com 11 December 2008. and said that he "went to every single home game as a kid. . . I remember I wanted to be Gary Lupul , I wanted to be Patrik Sundstrom and Ivan Hlinka . I used to think that being named Michael Bublé was pretty cool because I was close to being called Jiri Bubla ."Pap, Elliott. Vancouver Sun . 8 December 2008. Bublé also shared his hockey interest with his grandfather.Harvey, Alec. Nola.com 15 July 2006.

From age 14, Bublé spent six years working during the summer as a Commercial fishing|commercial fisherman with his father and crewmates. ABC News 11 October 2007.Bierly, Mandi. Entertainment Weekly . Posted 4 May 2007. Published in issue #933; 11 May 2007. Bublé described his work experience as "The most deadly physical work I’ll ever know in my lifetime. We’d be gone for two, sometimes three months at a time and the experience of living and working among guys over twice my age taught me a lot about responsibility and what it means to be a man."

His first singing engagements were in nightclubs at the age of 16 and were facilitated by his Italian grandfather Demetrio Santagà, a plumber originally from the small town of Preganziol , in the district of Treviso , who offered his plumbing services in exchange for stage time for his grandson. Bublé's grandfather also paid for his singing lessons. One of his vocal instructors was Joseph Shore , the opera baritone. Bublé grew up listening to his grandfather's collection of jazz records and credits his grandfather in encouraging his love for jazz music. "My grandfather was really my best friend growing up. He was the one who opened me up to a whole world of music that seemed to have been passed over by my generation. Although I like rock 'n' roll and modern music, the first time my granddad played me the Mills Brothers , something magical happened. The lyrics were so romantic, so real, the way a song should be for me. It was like seeing my future flash before me. I wanted to be a singer and I knew that this was the music that I wanted to sing." icLiverpool. 2 July 2004. Bublé never stopped believing that he would become a star but admitted he was probably the only one who believed in his dream, stating that even his maternal grandfather thought Bublé was going to be "an opening act for somebody in Las Vegas".. sixtyminutes.ninemsn.com.au . 8 October 2009. Bublé's maternal grandmother Iolanda Moscone was also Italian, from Carrufo, Villa Santa Lucia degli Abruzzi , Italy.
Bublé has stated he never learned to read and write music, using only emotion to drive his songwriting ability.Nunez, Mike. Metromix Brevard . 10 March 2010.Abram, Malcolm X.
Ohio.com. 17 March 2010.
At the age of 18, Bublé entered a local talent contest and won. But after winning, he was disqualified by organizer Bev Delich because he was underage. After that, Delich entered Bublé in the Canadian Youth Talent Search, which he won. Following that win, Bublé asked Delich to be his manager. Delich signed on and represented Bublé for the next seven not-so-fruitful years. According to Delich, Bublé would do every gig imaginable, including talent shows, conventions, cruise ships, malls, hotel lounges, bars, clubs, corporate gigs, revue|musical revues , singing telegrams, and even the occasional singing Santa Claus gig. http://podcasts.magic.co.uk/magic/interviews/michael_buble_podcast_02.mp3

In 1996, Bublé appeared in TV's "Death Game" (aka Mortal Challenge) as a Drome Groupie. Also in 1996, he appeared (uncredited) in 2 episodes of The X-Files as a Submarine Sailor.

Bublé's first national TV performance was on a 1997 award-winning Bravo! documentary titled Big Band Boom! , directed by Mark Glover Masterson.

Beginning in 1997, Bublé also became a frequent guest on Vicki Gabereau 's national talk show on the CTV Television Network|CTV network. During its first season the Vancouver-based program aired live, which ultimately worked in Bublé's favour. When a scheduled guest was forced to cancel, the show's music producer (Mark Fuller) often asked Bublé to fill in at the last minute. On one occasion, Bublé shared guest duties with fellow British Columbian Diana Krall , who was already a Grammy-nominated jazz musician. According to Fuller, Krall was suitably impressed with Bublé's performance. The Gabereau appearances provided Bublé with great exposure, but they also helped the singer hone his television skills as a performer and as an interview guest. In a mutual show of gratitude, Bublé appeared on the final Gabereau show in 2005, along with Jann Arden and Elvis Costello .

Bublé received two Genie Awards|Genie Award -nominations in 2000 for two songs he wrote for the film ''Here's to Life!'' ("I've Never Been in Love Before", "Dumb ol' Heart"). He recorded three independent albums ( First Dance , 1996; Babalu (album)|Babalu , 2001; Dream (Michael Bublé album)|Dream , 2002). But by 25 years of age, Bublé moved from British Columbia to Toronto , Ontario and was ready to give up the dream of professional musicianship to move back to Vancouver , British Columbia to pursue a career in journalism, when his lucky break came in 2000.

Music career

2000–02: Musical beginnings

In 2000, Bublé's career breakthrough came from a surprising chain of events. An aide to former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney , Michael McSweeney, saw Bublé's performance at a business party and received a copy of Bublé’s self-financed independent album. McSweeney showed the album to Mulroney and his wife and Bublé was subsequently invited to sing at the wedding of Mulroney's daughter Caroline, where he sang Kurt Weill 's " Mack the Knife ". At the wedding, Bublé was introduced to David Foster , a multi- Grammy Award -winning producer and record executive who had worked previously with artists such as Madonna (entertainer)|Madonna , Brandy Norwood , Whitney Houston , Michael Jackson , Céline Dion , Barbra Streisand , Kenny G. , Cher , Josh Groban , and Andrea Bocelli .

Initially, Foster was reluctant to sign Bublé to his 143 Records label because he "didn’t know how to market this kind of music." Bublé moved to Los Angeles for a brief period, with his agent, to convince Foster to sign him. Eventually, Foster agreed to produce an album for him if he raised $500,000 to cover the costs of the production, which Bublé did. Foster ended up covering the costs of production in the end under his label, with no assurances of support from Warner Brothers , and after Bublé received the personal stamp of approval and support of Foster's friend Paul Anka . After David Foster agreed to produce Bublé’s debut album, Bruce Allen , whom Bublé had pursued for years to be his manager, also signed Bublé. http://www.michaelbuble.jazzyutopia.com/videos/wfive.html http://www.michaelbuble.jazzyutopia.com/videos/wfive2.html

Bublé did some acting in this period; in 2000, as a karaoke singer in Duets opposite Gwyneth Paltrow and Huey Lewis , and in 2001, as Van Martin (a club owner), in Totally Blonde (movie)|Totally Blonde , produced by Andrew Van Slee .

2003–04: Michael Bublé

Also on the album is "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart? ", with Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees singing back up vocals. The album went to the top 10 in Canada, the United Kingdom , South Africa and reached #1 in Australia. It was #33 on the Australian Recording Industry Association|ARIA Top 100 Albums of 2003. It achieved marginal success in the United States reaching the top 50 on the Billboard 200 . Three tracks from the album ( Kissing a Fool , How Can You Mend a Broken Heart? , Sway) reached the top 30 on the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart.

Bublé appeared nationally on NBC television in the United States on the Today (NBC program)|Today program on 14 February 2003. A campaign featuring "Fever" was launched before Valentine's Day with a quirky marketing campaign that simply stated "You pronounce it Boo-blay." The album went Gold there. Then he began to travel all over the world to promote the album. The tour included Singapore, South Africa, the Philippines, the United Kingdom, Canada, South America, and eventually the United States.

In November 2003, Bublé released a Christmas Extended Play|EP Let It Snow , containing 5 previously unreleased tracks, that peaked at 56 on the Billboard 200.

A CD was released in 2003 of the 7 songs that Bublé sang for Totally Blonde , calling it Totally Bublé . After the success of Michael Bublé's self-titled debut, DRG Records belatedly released the jazzy soundtrack from the 2001 film Totally Blonde in which Bublé had a co-starring role as a nightclub singer/club owner. Capitalizing on Bublé's newfound stardom, DRG Records basically ignored the music's connection to the film by altering the title and putting a shot of Bublé on the cover making it appear as if this was a proper Michael Bublé release. The slight misrepresentation was not lost on Bublé who has stated on his website that he did not want these songs released, but that it was out of his control.
His version of "Come Fly with Me" is used in Looney Tunes: Back in Action .
