Imbibe the 'Christmas' spirit with Michael Bublé

MANILA, Philippines — Christmas is a few hours away and one way to imbibe the Christmas spirit is by listening to different Christmas songs, like Michael Bublé's “Christmas” album.

The Canadian 4-time Grammy Award winner gives a different take on songs like “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”, “Silent Night”, “Jingle Bells”, and the Mariah Carey single “All I Want for Christmas is You.”

He has also collaborated with other artists for some of the album's songs: Shania Twain on the song "White Christmas", The Puppini Sisters for "Jingle Bells", and Latin star Thalia for “Feliz Navidad.”

The album “Christmas”is very close to Bublé's heart since, as he puts it, “Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year for me and my family.

“So naturally, it's been a dream of mine to make the ultimate Christmas record. Even though it was summer and 95 degrees in [Los Angeles], we totally got into the spirit of the holiday," he said in a statement.

The album was produced by David Foster, Bob Rock and Humberto Gatica.
