West Coast v. West Coast: It’s Time to Beat The Game
Vancouver-born crooner Michael Buble rode Valentine’s Day sales to a #1 spot on Canadian album charts this week, beating The Game (a three-week numero uno), Green Day and the 2005 Grammy nominations album.
That’s not all: Buble’s second disk “It’s Time” also landed in the number 7 position on the Billboard Charts in the republic to the south and his self-titled debut reentered the Canadian charts at number 18.
Perhaps the key to the jazzy Canuck crooner’s success is his
tremendously ambiguous album title. It’s time for what, you might ask? A quick search of Google News came up with the following possibilities:
- It’s time to empower women;
- It’s time to move on;
- It’s Time to Tame Tuition;
- It’s time to act on schools;
- It’s time again to count those feathered friends;
- And, Torontoist’s personal favourite from the Toronto Star: It’s time you faced reality: You are the other woman.
If you didn’t have time to pick up tickets to Michael Buble’s two shows at the Hummingbird Centre May 24 and 25, though, don’t worry. This morning, an extra night was added for May 26.
