"Let It Snow (2003) ... Michael Buble ... Reprise Records (re-release 2007)" - By: J. Lovins, 23 Oct 2007 
My wife & I were fortunate enough to see Michaelin a St. Louis
concert, met him back stage, told us he had just recorded this album
backin November of 2003 & was very proud of the result.
Might add this young man made a very positive impression on all who
attended that night's show --- he's a first class guy & has everything
going for him --- couldn't happen to a nicer person.
Pop vocalist of the millennium is Michael Buble, with shades of
Connick, Darin, Sinatra & Torme, all rolled into one nice neat
package (and that's the plain truth). Justin time for the holidays
Buble has re-released "Let It Snow!", featuring an unforgettable youthful
style that takes you back to Christmas' of long, long ago --- Listening to
this five track compact disc, brings back memories of Bing Crosby in
"Holiday Inn", where Bing first sang the Irving Berlin classic song of
these special times "WHITE CHRISTMAS".
Then we have "THE CHRISTMAS SONG (CHESTNUTS ROASTING
ON AN OPEN FIRE)", composed by Mel Torme/Robert Wells & debuted
by Nat "King" Cole (one of the greatest entertainers of all time), but Michael
nails this classic tune with his own signature & makes it his very own.
"LET IT SNOW!", wonderful arrangement by Johnny Mandel, as Buble
sings the white stuff is coming downin big flakes.
"GROWN-UP CHRISTMAS LIST", beautiful almost music box tune written
by David Foster (producer of this album), the verse brings a tear to your eye as
Michael pours his heart out, this track alone is worth the price of the album.
But my all time favorite popular Christmas song is "I'LL BE HOME FOR
CHRISTMAS", this chokes my wife up, cause when I servedin the Navy
couldn't be with her that one Christmas, every time she hears this song
it all comes back, Buble takes the David Foster & Jeremy Lubbock
arrangement along with heartfelt lyrics & brings it home, just listen
quietly & see if you don't agree --- Let It Snow offers holiday greetings
for the yuletide days --- The EP was reissuedin 2007 with a
bonus live version of the title track.
