Michael Bublé Records Enchanting Duet With His 'Voice Crush'

Jul 11, 2020 by apost team

Back in 2018, Michael Bublé recorded a duet of Help Me Make It Through The Night with his "voice crush," Loren Allred.

Michael Bublé had been on a quest to find his so-called “voice crush,” and it appears that his lengthy search is finally over. As it turns out, Loren Allred is the woman of his musical fantasies. In fact, the duo has already recorded a beautiful duet together. The ensuing ballad is a poignant delight that showcases the dynamic talent that compelled and enticed Bublé to no end.

For Bublé, the journey to find his muse all started with a musical. After watching The Greatest Showman, he realized that Rebecca Ferguson, the actress, wasn’t actually singing her part; instead, her melodic lines were dubbed by another vocalist.

Because the nature of her performance was so powerful, Bublé embarked on a search for his soon-to-be female counterpart. It took a non-stop analysis of YouTube for Bublé to stumble upon the real source of his magnetic attraction. Once he came to the conclusion that Loren Allred was the responsible party, the rest of this charismatic merger became history.

These two unleash interwoven vocal harmonies that provide rich contrast, so their complementary styles of singing are glorious to behold. Their solo skills are already unrivaled, but they can accomplish much more together.

The full video also contains a charming behind-the-scenes perspective that enhances its magnificent quality even more. When addressing their teamwork in an interview with TODAY, Bublé extrapolated,

“God, I remembered why I loved making the music.”

The original song was written by Kris Kristofferson in 1970 and popularized by Sammi Smith’s cover the same year. Bublé has apparently been yearning to record his own version, but it couldn’t be done until he found the perfect creative companion.

Although the track was almost always done solo, the singer knew that his vision required a duet.

You may have noticed that Bublé has been noticeably absent from the limelight lately. As avid fans know, this conspicuous media disappearance is the result of his ongoing personal struggles that have marked the last few years. His son, Noah, endured an extended bout with cancer that took a heavy toll on the Bublé clan.

Despite the odds, his kid won the fight, but the grueling ordeal consumed a lot of the singer’s energy and time. Afterward, according to The Sun, he had to take more days off for the sake of his own neglected health. Thankfully, he is back behind the microphone, and the excruciating challenges have given him a wider perspective than ever before.

When you consider the litany of stars that have collaborated with Bublé in years prior, it’s astonishing to think that a lesser-known singer would be placed on a pedestal above them all. However, once you hear Allred’s signature tones, everything immediately makes sense.

Suddenly, as one of Buble’s artistic co-conspirators, she finds herself in the rarefied company of the likes of Barbra Streisand, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Hudson, and Kelly Rowland. She truly belongs to an exclusive league of performers now.

Thanks to this heartfelt rendition, the soulful singers can aid you through the evening, too. If you know anyone else who needs a little assistance making it past a lonesome night, then help brighten their solitude by spreading the word about this stunningly impactful performance. And let us know what you think. Is this your favorite Michael Bublé track?
