Critic Reviews
Show All-
Vancouver Sun
A middle-of-the-road jazz-pop crooner record that sparkles in your ears like a million little fizzy sugar-pop bubbles and is just cookie-cutter enough to please the masses.
-
Daily Bruin
another typical, romantic, jazzy album that sounds alarmingly similar to his past albums
-
Sputnik Music
The sound of laziness.
-
The Star
Bublé reminds his vast retro-loving fan base once again of his overwhelming debt to Frank Sinatra.
-
Boston Globe
A lovely thing occurs on the Canadian pop singer’s latest album: He finds his true voice.
-
All Music
one of his most diverse and enjoyable albums.
-
Idolator
there’s something nice and comforting in this album; a little like being loved.
-
Raising Whasians
He branches out into a pop/rock tempo which is a little uncharacteristic, but always done the “Buble way.”
-
She Scribes
This album has a little bit of everything but most of all it’s romantic and heartfelt.
-
Hypable
To Be Loved is a solid Bublé album
-
Hamilton News
Michael Buble is at the peak of his powers and To be Loved demonstrates the dues he has paid since his debut.
-
Newsday
What makes "To Be Loved" so impressive is the way his own songs sound so right next to his reworking
-
The National
Michael Bublé is hampered by a choice of songs which throws his talents into an unfavourable light.
-
Entertainment Focus
To Be Loved is an album that showcases some classic tracks to a new audience as well as showcasing Buble’s strengths as an artist in his own right.
-
Real Style Network
Overall To Be Loved is a nice album and there will be some hits to come off of it, but it’s not his strongest offering.
-
Daily Mail
There is something for everyone. To Be Loved is relentlessly easy on the ear.
-
Renowned for Sound
To Be Loved is the kind of album you’d want to take things slow with and plan a future together.
-
The Daily Star
The songs are smoother than ever
-
Galleon News
the ever-smiling Canadian crooner gives us a lacklustre affair at best.
-
Five Dollar Shake
Buble’s voice sounds so honest, so full of feeling, that you can’t help but to be moved by a few of the songs.
-
Overweight Bookshelf
musical equivalent of a comforting embrace.
-
New York Times
“To Be Loved” reaffirms his suave command as a vocalist and song stylist, while subtly expanding the frame.
-
Gulf News
It combines old and new, happy and blue, romance and more romance.
-
Shields Gazette
In a way, it’s a musical embodiment of the colour beige; painfully safe, somewhat dull and seemingly dreamt up as an ideal kitchen decoration
-
Miss in the Kitchen
A great album to sing along with and it will definitely lift your spirits.
-
Etcetera
Bublé needs to lose the comfort blanket next time
-
Express
Lazy but irritatingly charming.
-
Media Mikes
you are easily able to just get lost in the music.
-
Kilburn Times
The second-biggest-selling artist last year returns with a deflating clutch of covers, buffed-up but bereft of soul
-
Montreal Gazette
the singer continues to subtly distance himself from the restrictions of the crooner template that brought him to the world stage.
-
Delco Times
the happy heart that's splashed all of the album makes it likely he'll continue to feel the love he's become accustomed to.
-
Clever Housewife
To Be Loved is a feel good album and very easy to listen to – just not overly inspiring
-
Unexpected Elegance
This album has such a nostalgic feel
