Michael Buble's third major US release (including the mostly live COME FLY WITH ME) stays on message--this young Canadian loves the lush, swaying music of his parents' and grandparents' generations. Buble's albums, however, are much more than mere back-in-the-day exercises. The production and arranging of David Foster (Celine Dion, Josh Groban) is eclectic in a way that firmly places the tunes at the dawn of the 21st century, and, more importantly, Buble possesses the chops and sense of style to re-imagine the adult-contemporary vocal genre in a distinctive manner. In addition to standards by Gershwin and Porter, Buble embraces a variety of sounds, from Motown ("How Sweet It Is") to bossa nova ("Quando, Quando, Quando" with Nelly Furtado) to the Beatles ("Can't Buy Me Love" with a "She Loves You" tag). With his smooth croon and charming persona, Buble is a natural performer, and, for fans of fearlessly romantic and infectiously swinging music, IT'S TIME is a sure bet.

JazzTimes (p.134) - "[T]errifically relaxed, genuinely hip..."

Mojo (Publisher) (p.101) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[H]e's talented and he knows his stuff. He even creates something of his own on the original country-ish ballad 'Home' and the super-charged swing arrangement of 'Can't Buy Me Love'."

This album is full of brillaint songs that I never get tired of. I got this CD for my mum and we both listen to it. Songs like Foggy London, Home, Save The LAst Dance, and Quando, Quando make this album and Michael's velvety voice is absolutely perfect. Michael Buble's albums just keep getting better and better.

An amazing compilation of classic jazz with a new twist. This is my cooking cd. His ability to vocalise the impossible is amazing. I have given everyone I know and love a copy of this to experience like I have. A must for anyone who wants to sit back, relax and be taken back in time.

He did a fantastic job of his second album, I love it! Home is my favourite song, it's really beautiful and he has such a soft, beautiful voice; a nice song to listen to on a lazy afternoon. Quando with Nelly Furtado is great too. Also really enjoy Save the last dance for me. A lot of his songs are copies of earlier releases but I have to say that for every single song he has copied I like his version better - he just has a beautiful voice!
