Canadian crooner Michael Bublé has a rather unique, and perhaps flattering, take on his concert tours. In a recent interview, Bublé playfully suggested that his performances are a catalyst for a baby boom in the cities he visits. He affectionately refers to the resulting children as "Buble babies."

I don't know what the population of those places are, but I know that nine months after I do those open-air concerts, the population is going to double

— Michael BubléSpeaking about his upcoming tour dates in the UK and Ireland.

Bublé explained that the romantic ambiance of his outdoor concerts, especially under the stars with a few glasses of wine, acts as an aphrodisiac. This lighthearted claim, while likely a jest, adds a touch of playful charm to his public persona. His upcoming UK and Ireland tour, starting in Dublin on June 27th, is already being framed by the singer himself as a potential contributor to population growth.

You're under the stars, you're listening to these songs, you're swaying back and forth and you've had a couple of glasses of wine. It's an aphrodisiac

— Michael BubléDescribing the romantic atmosphere of his outdoor concerts.

This perspective offers a stark contrast to the typical news coverage of music tours, which usually focuses on ticket sales, setlists, or critical reviews. Bublé's commentary injects a dose of humor and personal flair, highlighting a more intimate and perhaps even whimsical connection he feels with his audience and the places he performs. It's a reminder that for artists like Bublé, the impact of their music and presence can be seen, or at least humorously claimed, in ways far beyond the stage.

I like to call them 'Buble babies'
