He also decided for the song to be a lead single because he thought it’s “really nice for a cold, winter-y weather.”</p><div> </div><div><strong>A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square</strong></div><p>Included in Bublé’s new album is the remake of the romantic song &#x27;A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square,&#x27; popularized by singers Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra. Bublé, an expert in contemporary jazz standards, complemented the classic song with his smooth and emotive rendition of heart-melting lyrics that go: “That certain night, the night we met / There was magic abroad in the air / There were angels dining at the Ritz /And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square…”</p><div><br/></div><p>Apart from this song, expect collaborations on classics such as Bublé’s duet with country legend Willie Nelson on the song &#x27;Crazy&#x27; and a new version of Paul McCartney’s &#x27;My Valentine&#x27; which the legendary Beatle himself produced for Bublé. The singer considers it a great honor to work with these legendary musicians in this album.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/e6086b80-05a7-46a6-afde-564f12f84403_higher_album_0.png" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="" is="" Michael="" studio=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">&#x27;Higher&#x27; is Michael Bublé&#x27;s 11th studio album<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> Photo: Michael Bublé website  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>Higher</strong> </div><p>Of this new album, the singer said he opened himself up to trying new things. One of the things to look forward to on the <em>Higher</em> album is his works with singer-songwriter Ryan Tedder as well as the song &#x27;Higher&#x27; itself which was inspired and co-written by Bublé’s son Noah.</p><div><br/></div><p>“The song came when my eight-year-old came into the shower when I was giving my kids shampoo and conditioner. My eight-year-old said, ‘Poppy, I wrote a song,’ and I said, ‘What is it?’ And he [sang], ‘When you  go low and I go high…’ and months later I went to Ryan Tedder. I said, ‘Ryan, my little boy sang this song and I really thought it was great.’ Thirty minutes later, we have a song. The pandemic and my kids and my wife have a big impact [on this album],” he narrated.</p><div><br/></div><p>Of the pandemic’s impact, Bublé shared some wise words to ponder upon while the whole world awaits the release of his new album on March 25, 2022.</p><div><br/></div><p>“Perspective is everything. What I found interesting is the pandemic put us on a level playing field. Maybe for the first time, we all felt the same thing—we were scared, anxious and our mental health became an issue. We cling to each other for hope,” he said.</p><div><br/></div><div><em><a href="https://www.michaelbuble.com/higher?ref=https://www.google.com/" target="_blank">Pre-save the album now!</a></em></div><div><br/></div><p>Lead photo from <strong>Warner Music Philippines</strong></p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/culture/music/super-bowl-lvi-halftime-show-performers/32435" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Mary J.
