It’s been just a week since Michael Bublé dropped his latest studio album, Love, and already it’s made its mark by topping the charts in both the UK and Scotland. So, you might think the 43-year-old Canadian singer is celebrating with champagne and dancing around in joy, right? Not quite. In fact, Michael couldn’t care less about how well his album is performing. Let me explain why this man is more focused on life's real priorities.
Michael Bublé: A Star Who Doesn’t Care About Chart Rankings
In a candid interview with Mirror, Michael opened up about his indifference to album sales and chart positions. He shared, “I don’t give a s–t if things sell one or 10 million copies. I don’t care where I play—whether it’s at a club, a theater, or a stadium.” And this attitude extends beyond just sales figures. Michael has instructed his management and record label not to share reviews or chart rankings with him. It’s almost as if he’s intentionally staying away from all the noise that typically surrounds a successful music release.
Family First: Michael's New Perspective on Life
Michael’s priorities have shifted dramatically since his son Noah battled cancer. He revealed, “My kids are good, that’s all I care about. Making music is a bonus—a bonus of the happiness of life. I couldn’t even think about anything else.” He elaborated, “I don’t read anything, don’t have social media anymore, and my poor manager can’t tell me what the chart positions are because he knows I’ll cut the call. I don’t need to know that. I don’t have control over that stuff.”

“Every second I get to promise myself to be the nicest, kindest person I can be,” Michael added. “Everything else has gone out of the window—I can’t control them.” This philosophy reflects a deeper understanding of what truly matters in life, especially after facing such a challenging period with his family.
Creating Something Beautiful After Hardship
Michael recently shared his intention to create “something beautiful” upon returning to music. He explained, “I think everyone knows what my family has gone through—it was obviously incredible and heavy. Once my kid was okay and my family was trying to move on and heal, I just felt there were so many moments where I looked out into the world and thought, honestly, there’s so much division and negativity. I surely don’t want to add to it.”
Instead, Michael wants his music to bring people together and spread positivity. It’s a powerful reminder that sometimes the most meaningful art comes from the darkest times, offering light and hope to those who listen.
Now, if I were in Michael’s shoes, I’d probably throw a party for myself if my creation became a hit. Maybe even include a piñata. But Michael’s approach is refreshing—a testament to putting family and personal values above fame and fortune.
