Bublé well and truly got the party started in Manchester on Friday night...
“This is not a concert, it’s a party” Michael Bublé booms out to his delirious audience here in Manchester from the very start of this bouncing AO Arena gig. His fans didn't really need any encouragement to be fair.
Looking out across the sea of happy faces here in Manchester, Michael sighs: "I’m so happy to be home thank you."There is no doubting that Michael, here celebrating 20 years since making his debut in the music world, is at the top of his game. Fresh from his latest Grammy win for new album Higher, it feels like he is on a high, and the audience roar their approval at his every slip and trademark slide across the stage.
Naturally he's in fine voice - from the opening boom of Feeling Good through to the tender emotion in his self-penned Home - there's never a note less than perfect dripping from his honey-hewn throat. Incredibly, Michael reveals later in the show: “There’s no choreography for this show they just do this themselves they’re amazing. Just amazing.”
Returning to the stage for a thumping run through of It’s a Beautiful Day at the grand finale, he exits the stage. It leaves his orchestra to perform a jazzed up version of Smile and allows every member of his band to get a personal “end credit” and a cheer which is a lovely touch.
