When grandpa was ill and could've died, I would have swapped all my record sales so he could get well. He is the reason I am a singer. He was my best friend growing up.

More quotes by Michael Buble
I believe [Dean Martin] is underestimated as a vocalist only because it seemed like what he was doing looked easy - but it isn't and it stands the test of time.
Michael Buble
There was something that was very manly about having the strength and having the courage to sing about love and romance. And I don't know what happened in our world where that was turned into being soft, because I don't think it's soft at all.
Michael Buble
I am a candid interview and I have a dark and dry sense of humor - a very Canadian sense of humor.
Michael Buble
My favorite music is '80s music which drives people around me crazy. I really love it.
Michael Buble
Christopher Hitchens is perhaps the greatest orator ever. He's such a famous atheist.
Michael Buble
I met the [Frank] Sinatra family for a [performance] I did for his hundredth birthday and one of the first things Sinatra's daughters said to me was, I'm so glad you make your own beautiful arrangements now.
Michael Buble
You want to be commercially successful and critically acclaimed. But the truth is, there's only a few Bruce Springsteens and Paul McCartneys out there.
Michael Buble
I look at my little ones and I love them so much. I think to myself, By God, if my son is gay, it's not that he was turned or learned into it. My son, his soul, the way he was born ... this is him.
Michael Buble
I don't want to be the flavor, the passing thing that the girls scream at. I think that it's more important for me, honestly, that the guy who gets dragged to the show, you know, looks at his wife and says, thank you, that was great and tells his buddies.
Michael Buble
It's a bit shocking when you show up in Africa or you're in the middle of Spain and there are people that know the words and the young kids singing along.
Michael Buble
I would rather have people be even cynical about me than to feed the negative vibe.
Michael Buble
I like my job but it's not who I am.
Michael Buble
I'm not a jazz musician, because, I mean, firstly, I can't play anything. I'm not bad on the tamborine. I have a certain way with the triangle. But I'm not a jazz musician ... my band, they always joke, they always say that I'm a disposable, pop, jazz superstar.
Michael Buble
For me I look at a group like Queen or AC/DC or the Beastie Boys. There was melody within what they did. There was a certain style with what they did. I think it is coming back.
Michael Buble
A lot of artists talk about getting out of their comfort zones and being the most proud of their newest album. But it is true for me. I rethought a lot of what I do.
Michael Buble
I have not earned the right to be called the young Sinatra, but give me time.
Michael Buble
I had this strange belief, perhaps naively, that somehow, if I kept working hard, and I kept doing it with integrity, that I would get my chance.
Michael Buble
Every time a new rock singer comes out they don't say, 'Are you the new John Lennon?' Every time a new rapper comes out, it's not, 'Are you the new Dre?' I am never sure why this sort of genre, the categorization is so strong. I have not earned the right to be called the young Sinatra, but give me time.
Michael Buble
I think I'm a mama's boy who wanted to be a hockey player, who failed, and had to become a singer. I think that I'm a generous, impatient, kind, jerk.
Michael Buble
Look at Neil Diamond. Was he the cool guy? No, he was the housewives' guy. He didn't try to be what he wasn't. He just did what he did - made great music, was a good entertainer, nice-enough guy.
