Michael Bublé: 'Haven't Met You Yet'
For a supposedly inoffensive singer, Michael Bublé does a good job of winding people up. Why? Well, there's the slight whiff of self-satisfaction about him, the crushing ubiquity of 'Home', the fact he lives every week like X Factor big band week... got enough to be getting on with? Of course, none of this affects his sales figures – each of Bublé's three albums has shifted a whopping six million copies worldwide.

Now the man Leon Jackson calls God is about to score his first proper hit single. 'Haven't Met You Yet', a Bublé original taken from his upcoming fourth album, is a toe-tapping pop tune with lavish production - the strings swell in all the right places, the brass parps perkily - and lyrics so shamelessly romantic Barry Manilow could sing them. It's cheesy as a quesadilla and too chirpy by half, but if this sort of thing pushes your guilty pleasure button, it's probably best to enjoy it while you can. Team Westlife's cogs will already be whirring.

Well atleast we know what happened to the voice of the original Knightriders "kitt" A Soulless drone of a voice incapable of any emotion singing a schmaltzy song with vocals so hideously compressed and curtailed it sounds like your being sang to by a robotic sinus.

This is a really neat song, reminds me of "Chuckies In Love" "Once Upon A Xmas Song" and "Sesame Street," all rolled into one. But nevertheless, don't be put off, it's very well constructed and even fits in two Beatles references before it finishes. It's toe tapping, smile inducing and above all, a perfect slice of pop. We could do with more stuff like this. And, Barry Manilow would kill to have been able to write a song like this and pull it off, looking half as good!

Doesn't it sound like the Sara Bareilles song ' I don't want to write you a love song'?
