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.
To Love Somebody
Michael Bublé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be lived with you
Lived with you
There's a way,(there's a way) everybody say
To do each and every little thing
If I ain't got you, (If I ain't got you)
If I ain't got you, (If I ain't got you)
Baby, you don't know what it's like
Baby, you don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you
In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, yeah I'm blind
I'm a man
Can't you see what I am?
I live and breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, (If I ain't got you)
If I ain't got you, (If I ain't got you)
Baby, you don't know what it's like
Baby, you don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you
Oh baby, you don't know what it's like
You don't know what it's like
You don't know what it's like
Baby, you don't know what it's like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

There's a light
There is a specific kind of light
A certain kind of light
This light is unique and exceptional
That never shone on me
I have never experienced this kind of light before
I want my life to be lived with you
I desire to share my life with you
Lived with you
I want to spend my life with you
There's a way,(there's a way) everybody say
People claim that there is a specific method or approach to everything
To do each and every little thing
To perform every task, no matter how small
But what does it bring
What is the point or benefit of it?
If I ain't got you, (If I ain't got you)
If I don't have you in my life
Baby, you don't know what it's like
You haven't experienced the feeling
To love somebody
To truly care and have emotions for someone
To love somebody
To feel an intense and deep affection for someone
The way I love you
The intense and genuine way in which I love you
In my brain
In my mind
I see your face again
I vividly remember what you look like
I know my frame of mind
I am aware of my own state of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
You don't have to ignore what is going on
And I'm blind, yeah I'm blind
But I am the one who is blind to the truth
I'm a man
I am a human being
Can't you see what I am?
Don't you realize who I am and what I need?
I live and breathe for you
You are the most important thing in my life, and I need you to survive
But what good does it do
But what is the point if I can't have you?
Oh baby, you don't know what it's like
You haven't experienced the feeling of wanting someone this badly
To love somebody
To truly care for someone
To love somebody
To have emotional and deep feelings for someone
The way I love you
The way in which I love you with all my heart
To love somebody
To have deep emotions for someone
To love somebody
To feel a strong and intense affinity towards someone
The way I love you
The incredibly strong and genuine way in which I love you

What utter tife and bullshit.
Amy Winehouse's: 'Back to Black' won't be relatable in 50 years?
How about Dan Wilson/Adele's: 'Someone Like You?'
Or Gotye's: 'Somebody That I Used to Know?'
There's a tonne of modern-day songs that only time will tell on their longevity. Don't dismiss the good music of today because you clearly listen to the shit music it creates.
News flash: the past had shit music, too, and guess what? It didn't stand the test of time. You can't tell what songs today will or will not stand that test, so don't proclaim you do. You're not clairvoyant.

Hay una luz,
una cierta clase de luz
que nunca brilló sobre mí.
Quiero que mi vida sea vivida contigo,
vivida contigo.
Es una melodia especial... Me engancha y me deja con sabor a mas.
Gracias Michael Buble por ese placer que le das a nuestros iodos. #PaQueLoSepan

The song that was written 50 years ago still sounds awesome.
Today, unfortunately, there is no more such songs that will last 50 years and more.
