Michael Bublé Is The Best Artist of This Century

And here is exactly why.

Michael Bublé Is The Best Artist of This Century

I may be a bit biased here, as swing music is my all time favorite genre, but after seeing this man in concert, I have grown to like him even more. For all of my friends who know how much I love Michael Bublé, this may make them wonder, "how is that even possible?"

So without further ado, here are the reasons why I think Michael Bublé is the best and most well-rounded artist of this century.

1. He has the voice of an angel

Believe it or not, Michael Bublé sounds better live than on his recorded albums. His voice has this smoothness to it, and his pitch is always perfect. He proved himself to have genuine talent, because many artists do not live up to their recordings when performing live.

2. He covers amazing music to mix in with his originals

He covers a lot of the Rat Pack members, pictured here.

This may be the part where my bias comes in, because not everyone loves Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, and others in that genre as much as I do, but I really enjoy hearing Bublé's covers of these men.

He gives their songs a twist while maintaining the integrity of the classic swing genre. I also like that I know the words already. He is bringing back the previous era in a new way.

3. His music is timeless, appropriate, and meaningful

Again with bringing back music from the previous era in a fresh way, Michael Bublé still keeps modern audiences interested. At the concert, there were people ranging from elementary age to grandparent age.

Another element to his music is that there is no profanity, cursing, or innuendos. Bublé's songs are about love, in all kinds of forms and ways. It makes his music meaningful and great for anyone of any age tired of hearing the "popular" crap.

4. He has an adorable family

His wife, Luisana Lopilato.

Michael Bublé has a gorgeous wife, Luisana Lopilato, along with two sons and a daughter born just this past year. He shows his devotion to his family by talking about them a lot, and even took such a long break from music and touring to care for his oldest son, Noah, while he battled cancer.

Bublé's son is now thankfully cancer free, and the rest of his family continues in good health. He talked a lot about his wife throughout the concert and thanked God for his son's health.

5. He loves his fans so much, that he won’t even call them “fans”

At the concert, Bublé mentioned that he does not feel "fan" is the proper way to address his admirers, since that indicates being fanatic, but he views us as "family and loved ones."

I had never heard an artist say this so passionately, because many have fandom names like "Swifties" or "Sheerios." Even Frank Sinatra's fans are called "Bobby Soxers." I feel like him referring to his fans as his family instead of some cheesy name shows the love he has for them.

6. He isn’t concerned with the numbers

At his concert, Bublé also mentioned how he never pays attention to how many views he gets, how many tickets and albums he sells, or anything related to numbers because he sings from the love of his heart.

His manager was the one to tell him that most of his concert locations for his tour sold out, and that sent him into tears, since he didn't know what the outcome would be.

7. He is always dressed to impress

Michael Bublé is always looking sharp in a suit and tie when doing anything for his singing career. He also rocks the nice dad outfit when not on the job, Who wouldn't love this 43 year old handsome man?

There are many other reasons I could go on with (his spectacular Christmas album, his faith, etc.), but the bottom line is that Michael Bublé represents a solid standard for what a respectful, talented individual should strive for in this day and age.

I would highly recommend listening to some of his music if you aren't familiar with him. For me, an artist's character and presentation plays a role in how much I like them, so that is why I personally believe Bublé is the best thing since sliced bread.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
