Life by Cynthia

My son and I have matching dimples. Oh HELLO Friend! Here I am!

Music is a  wonderful  way to get me through long work days. My current soundtrack: To Be Loved by Michael Bublé.  I received a free copy of To Be Loved for review purposes.  First off, I need to tell you that I was already a Bublé fan to begin with. Naturally, I was thrilled to get my copy! To Be Loved, out now, finds the Grammy winner covering songs by Frank Sinatra, the Bee Gees, Jackson 5, Elvis Presley, Van Morrison, and more. In the mix of cover songs are four original songs co-written by Bublé. 1. "You Make Me Feel So Young"   2. "It's a Beautiful Day" 3. "To Love Somebody" 4. "Who's Lovin You" 5. "Something Stupid" (Feat. Reese Witherspoon) 6. "Come Dance with Me" 7. "Close Your Eyes" 8. "After All" (Feat. Bryan Adams) 9. "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You" (with Naturally 7) 10.
