After a two-year break to focus on his son Noah’s health, Michael Bublé is back with a new album titled love.
The Canadian singer on Thursday previewed the new collection of songs, which is out Nov. 16, by releasing a cover of the 1952 classic “When I Fall In Love.”
“I didn’t anticipate returning to recording or performing and I was fine with that,” Bublé said, in a release, referring to the news that Noah was diagnosed with cancer.
“My entire world view has changed completely these last few years.”

The 43-year-old crooner said the experience showed him “how much love and humanity is out in the world.”
Bublé said he has stories to tell. “It’s all there in the songs,” he explained. “I have had so many blessings in my life and one of them is that I hold the torch to keep these songs alive for generations to come. I take the responsibility very seriously.”
The album includes standards like “My Funny Valentine,” “Unforgettable,” and “I Only Have Eyes For You.” There’s also Charlie Puth’s “Love You Anymore” and a duet with Cécile McLorin Salvant of “La Vie En Rose.”
Bublé also included an original track, “Forever Now.”
love was produced by Bublé and fellow B.C. native David Foster with Jochem van der Saag.
