Michael Bublé (pronounced Boo-Blay) is a [[Canadian Music|Canadian]] Jazz/Big Band singer and occasional actor from Burnaby, B.C. Buble is known for his easy-listening covers of popular jazz standards from the Sinatra-era, which he gives a contemporary touch. He's won 7 Junos and 2 Grammys. He sang the [[Spider Man (Film)|Spider-Man]] theme played during the end credits of ''Spider-Man 2''. You might recognize him for his [[Canada, Eh?]] performance during the 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremonies. Jazz afficianodos are not often fans, as they feel Buble's takes on classic songs aren't purist enough, but he's won over large audiences as much with his boyish good looks, laidback charm and sense of humour as with his singing.
