Come Fly With Me (CD & DVD)


Product Details


A year after his slickly produced recording debut launched him on a meteoric course to stardom, this combo CD/DVD set chronicles Michael Buble's crowd-pleasing live performances before amphitheater-sized crowds on a triumphant national tour. The audio portion kicks off with pair of new studio recordings again reinforce the 20-something Canadian heartthrob's 1950s-something artistic tack with mixed results: "Nice 'n' Easy" has a Sinatra-faithful jazzy swing; the overproduced, somnambulistic "Can't Help Falling in Love" evokes Perry Como more than Elvis. The remainder of the audio CD is comprised mostly of live versions of songs from Buble's debut, with his takes of "My Funny Valentine," "Fever," Van Morrison's "Moondance" and "Mack the Knife" again suggesting that Buble has an ear cocked wisely towards the Bobby Darin oeuvre. But with the notable exception of three elegant live-in-studio performances culled from Sessions@AOL, the live DVD does Buble's undeniabl! y charming stage presence a great disservice. Intercut awkwardly with offstage comments by Buble and his band, the balance of that disc suffers from an MTV-inspired, cut/dissolve-every-three-seconds style that's intended to focus one's attention, but does exactly the opposite. If sudden stardom virtually guarantees that Buble's impossibly smooth, expressive voice seldom ventures very far outside the Sinatra/Darin mold here, hopefully he'll leverage that fame towards greater artistic challenges in the near future. --Jerry McCulley

Product Reviews


(4 stars) - He's hot!!
The Mega Hits company replaced my purchase due to the DVD wouldn't play. They did this without a hassle and promptly. Thank you MEGA HIT RECORDS. The CD is wonderful with alot of the oldies.



(4 stars) - Nice and simple!
The star rating is for the music. Michael sings many popular songs and must face the possibility of being compared to the people that made tem popular. Many people in that position do funny things with the music, thinking that they have to make it unique; Michael does not have to do this (with little exception). He is just being his self and it is great just the way he is.

On the other hand this package also contains a DVD which can make great jewelry or maybe hung from a tree to scare birds. It is like one big sound bite; there is no constancy or course to his rattling. On the technical side the soundtrack is out of sing with the video. The video itself looks like the Blair Witch Project; it can not hold steady or focus.



(5 stars) - Amazing talent up close
The CD is fine (though many of his seem to offer the same material) - but the DVD of his "early famous" interviews and performance add a great deal to appreciating the man and his interest in this type of music, family, art. It's a similar approach to the later Madison Square Garden CD/DVD, and gives the "first look" to compare to that later refined, developed, and confident performer. If you like Buble, I think this is a pretty good piece - and reasonably priced. How long can that last?



(4 stars) - Come Fly With Me
This cd and dvd was recorded in 2004. Just about 2 years after Buble started making great music. He is still kind of raw in this dvd footage but you can tell, as in one of his songs, "The Best is Yet to Come." He isn't wearing Boss suits like he is now but he could then and now belt out a good rendition of "Nice 'n Easy", "Fever" and "Kissing a Fool" just to name a few. Great music produced by the "Hit Man" himself, David Foster. Great cd and dvd to listen to and watch if you want to see the early Buble.



(5 stars) - Loved this CD
I loved this CD. I have a problem finding a Michael Buble' CD that's not too jazzy for my taste. I'm a traditionalist and I prefer a song to be sung the way it was written. Finally this is a CD where Michael stuck to the original and chose some amazing originals. I've listened to it dozens of times already and I'm still enjoying it.
