[[Michael Bublé]] (pronounced Boo-Blay) is a [[Canadian Music|Canadian]] Jazz/Big Band singer and occasional actor from Burnaby, B.C. BubleBublé is known for his easy-listening covers of popular jazz standards from the Sinatra-era, which he gives a contemporary touch. He's won 7seven Junos and 2two [[Grammy Award|Grammys]]. He sang the [[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man]] theme played during the end credits of ''Spider-Man 2''. You might recognize him for his [[Canada, Eh?]] performance during the 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremonies. Jazz afficianodosaficionados are not often fans, as they feel BubleBublé's takes on classic songs aren't purist enough, but he's won over large audiences as much with his boyish good looks, laidbacklaid back charm and sense of humour as with his singing.
