I'll chip in since you're all alone here razz , although tbh I don't have a lot to add, not really a Bublé fan (he's inoffensive enough but I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to him) but I just wanted to see this unlikely confluence of musicians in action, it was weird lol

I didn't like the track. The rhythm gave me motion sickness. It was like the speed of the song was wrong and was an unpleasent listening experience. I really dislike Michael Buble, so I have to disclose that and that may taint my opinion ireedeemably. I prefer Harry Connick Jr back in the day if we are going down the road of the retro crooner. If you took away the beat and the for cash only rap, and put Sam Cooke's vocal on this track, you might be able to save it.

I have to admit, I did come in here and took a view at the video and listened to the song, then quickly left out as if someone on here could physically see the look on my face. lol I like the whole jazzy/crooner/saloon music but only from the legends: Sinatra, Dino and Sammy, etc. I can respect Buble's style, however, I can't get with the way he does it. That said, my reaction to this song was "is he trying to crossover or something?". I love me some Black Thought, but why in the world he agreed to be on this song is beyond me. It's totally out of place. The video reminded me of an "In Living Color" episode. lol

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

It is a strange pairing for sure, but kinda like it cause it's something that you would not expect. I do like some of his stuff, but not everything. He's the new Harry Connick Jr. sort of. I do kinda see why he's not liked though. His fanbase is mostly Female, which is great for him.

Hey, missfee: Yeah...his last couple of albums have been introduced by these lame-o Popcrap/Crossover ditties that really don't fit his aesthetic for being a New Skool crooner. He should just let the music speak 4 itself (the classics) and leave the new style to someone else. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. sad <3

True. I think the "crooner" genre doesn't fit with a hip hop element. Imagine Frank Sinatra performing with Tupac. No. lol

He covered rock tunes, but in his style.
