Sobre el álbum
El álbum Babalu, de 2001, es una pieza fundamental para entender los orígenes de Michael Bublé. Lanzado de manera independiente antes de su fichaje por una gran discográfica, este trabajo es la más pura demostración de su amor por los clásicos del jazz y el swing. Funciona como la maqueta o la tarjeta de visita que presentaba su inmenso talento al mundo.
En este disco, junto a otros trabajos iniciales como "Dream", encontramos a un Michael Bublé en estado puro, sin la suntuosa producción que lo caracterizaría después. Su voz es la protagonista absoluta, interpretando con una pasión y una madurez sorprendentes para su edad estándares popularizados por sus grandes ídolos.
"Babalu" es un documento que revela la esencia de su arte. Es el sonido de un joven con un sueño claro, un artista que ya poseía el carisma y la calidad vocal necesarios para convertirse en la gran estrella que todos conocemos hoy.

Letra
Buona sera, signorina, buona sera It is time to say goodnight to Napoli Though it's hard for us to whisper Buona Sera With that old moon above the Mediterranean Sea In the morning, signorina, we'll go walking Where the mountains and the sun come into sight And by the little jeweler shop we stop and linger While I buy a wedding ring for your finger In the meantime let me tell you that I love you Buona sera, signorina, kiss me good night Buona sera, signorina, kiss me good night Buona sera, signorina, buona sera It is time to say goodnight to Napoli Though it's hard for us to whisper Buona Sera With that old moon above the Mediterranean Sea In the morning, signorina, we'll go walking Where the mountains and the sun come into sight And by the little jeweler shop we stop and linger While I buy a wedding ring for your finger In the meantime let me tell you that I love you Buona sera, signorina, kiss me good night In the morning, signorina, we'll go walking Where the mountains and the sun come into sight And by the little jeweler shop we gonna stop and linger While I buy a wedding ring for your finger And in the meantime let me tell you that I love you Buona sera, signorina, kiss me good night I said buona sera, signorina, kiss me good night Sera, signorina, kiss me good night - When You're Smiling

- Mack the Knife
Letra
Oh, the shark has pretty teeth, dear And it shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has MacHeath, dear And it keeps it way out of sight When that shark bites with its teeth, dear Scarlet billows begin to spread Fancy gloves, though, wears our MacHeath, babe So there's never, never, ever a trace of red On a sidewalk, one Sunday morning Lies a body oozin' life Someone's sneakin' round that corner Could that someone be Mack the Knife? Oh there's a tugboat down, it's down by the river, don't you know? Where the cement bag drooppin' on down That cement is just—it's there for the weight, dear Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town D'you hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash Now MacHeath spends, he spends like a sailor Could that boy have done somethin' rash? Ah, Jenny Diver, look out, Sukey Tawdry Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Oh, that line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's, Macky's back in town I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Oh, the line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town I said, look out, old Macky is back! - La Vie en Rose
Letra
Hold me close and hold me fast The magic spell you cast This is La Vie En Rose When you kiss me heaven sighs And though I close my eyes I see La Vie En Rose When you press me to your heart (Quand il me prend dans ses bras) I'm in a world apart (Je vois la vie en rose) A world where roses bloom And when you speak, angels sing from above Everyday words seem to turn into love songs Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La Vie En Rose Quand il me prend dans ses bras Il me parle tout bas Je vois la vie en rose (Every time you kiss me heaven sighs) Il me dit des mots d'amour (And I don't know why) Des mots de tous les jours (I close my eyes) Et ça me fait quelque chose (If only you would) Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La Vie En Rose Il est entré dans mon cœur Une part de bonheur Dont je connais la cause C'est toi pour moi, moi pour toi dans la vie Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La Vie En Rose
