More about this title

About the Composer: Michael Bublé

Michael Bublé emerged in the early 2000s as a leading voice in contemporary pop music, blending jazz-inflected phrasing with accessible melodies that appeal across generations. His catalog of infectious, singable songs has made him a fixture on radio and in live venues worldwide, and his compositions translate remarkably well to choral settings where his harmonic sensibilities and emotional directness shine through.

Why we love this

Alex Phan's arrangement captures the infectious energy of this contemporary hit while building in flexibility for different choir sizes and soloist options. The a cappella setting removes logistical barriers and lets singers focus entirely on crisp rhythmic unison, tight block chords, and the kind of tight vocal percussion moments that make pop arrangements feel alive and modern on stage.

What to expect

Upbeat optimism mixed with smooth sophistication. The piece captures Bublé's signature warmth and playfulness, moving between moments of tight vocal unity and showcase space for a featured voice. Audiences recognize the melody immediately, but the choral treatment adds texture and personality that feel fresh.

Who it's for

Choirs seeking contemporary repertoire that engages both singers and audiences will find this Bublé hit accessible and fun to perform. It works equally well for treble or mixed ensembles looking to program music beyond traditional show choir or barbershop settings.

How to get the most out of it

Establish a steady groove early in rehearsal through body percussion or vocal percussion layers. This grounds the ensemble and keeps the a cappella texture from feeling static.
Select your featured soloist(s) during early run-throughs. Letting singers compete for the part builds investment, and a confident lead voice can elevate the entire piece.
Balance the vocal accompaniment so it supports rather than overwhelms the soloist. Background singers should listen actively and adjust dynamic layers in response to the lead.
Pay close attention to rhythmic precision in the chordal hits and punctuation marks. Without instrumental reinforcement, even small timing slips become audible.

How to use it

Program this as a concert opener to establish energy and goodwill with your audience, or place it in a pop or secular song set to provide tonal contrast with heavier jazz or Broadway numbers. It also works as a spring or pops concert anchor that will resonate with families familiar with Bublé's catalog.
