Michael Bublé’s introduction to the music of the swing era came to him through his grandfather, who filled his grandson’s ears with the sounds of The Mills Brothers, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and others. As Bublé eagerly absorbed the recordings, he began to realize that he wanted to be a singer and that this style of music, virtually foreign to his own generation, was what he wanted to perform.
With his grandfather’s assistance, Bublé soon learned a whole catalog of tunes and gained experience and exposure by singing as a guest with several local bands. While still in his teen years, he won the Canadian Youth Talent Search, released several independent albums, and performed in a musical review titled Swing that traveled across the U.S. It wasn’t long before Bublé was introduced to Grammy-winning producer David Foster during a famous Canadian wedding of Brian Mulroney’s daughter Caroline Mulroney. He later signed his first major recording contract with Reprise Records after that encounter.
The two Canadians began work on a debut album that would incorporate Bublé’s aptitude for pop standards into songs that spanned several decades. His self-titled debut disc was released in early 2003, and featured jazzy takes on old standards like “Fever” and “The Way You Look Tonight” as well as newer classics like “Moondance” and “How Can You Mend A Broken Heart”.
He finished off 2003 with an EP of holiday material, Let It Snow, and began 2004 with the live CD/DVD set Come Fly With Me. In 2005, It’s Time was a number one hit in Canada, Japan, Italy, and Australia, and made the top ten of both the UK and US. Later that year he released the live album Caught in the Act. More recently, Michael received a 2010 Grammy Award for 'Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album' for 'Michael Bublé Meets Madison Square Garden.
Some Kind Of Wonderful
Michael Bublé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To show me you understand
Unless something happens to me
That's some kind of wonderful
Now every time our little world seems blue
I just have to look at you
And everything seems to be
Now I know I can't express
This feeling of tenderness
There's so much I wanna say
But right words don't come my way
I only know when I'm in your embrace
And this world seems a better place
And something happens to me
And it's some kind of wonderful
And it's wonderful, baby
It's wonderful
Oh yeah, so divine, mmm yeah
I know I can't express
This feeling of tenderness
And there's so much I wanna say
Ah, but the right words don't come my way
I only know when I'm in your embrace
And this world seems a better place
Unless something happens to me
You know it's some kind of wonderful
And it's wonderful, baby
Whoa, whoa, it's so divine
Oh baby
And it's wonderful baby, baby, baby, baby
I understand
And it's some kind of wonderful
And it's wonderful baby, baby, baby, baby please
You know you're some kind of wonderful
Oh baby
So much I wanna say
