Okay. This is like my dream come true.
I’m getting a man bun. Michael? Oh my gosh, hello. All right, good to see you. What have they done? I feel handsome. Yeah, you are. And I like my hair. Are you sure you’re Michael? Look at that. Yes. I chose to be a South African named Dion. One of my best friends. One of my best friends is actually named Dion. This accent is good! and he’s from South Africa.

You’re going to smash it. I’m gonna be right there, with you. But not physically. All right. Wish me luck. Good luck. All right, cheers everyone.
Excuse me, sorry.

He’s about to go in. I might be sick. So, David, you’re going to be Dion’s sponsor for the day. And I’ll leave you with David. All right. All right. He will take you through the drill and such. All right, yes. Is that all right? Yes, you have to take care of me on my first day. I’m nervous. Please don’t be. All right. One thing I can always say to you is relax. All right. Hug it up. All right. We’re bonding already. This is so cool. And what’s over here? These things here, I’m not quite sure. I think they could be something…

I wouldn’t go as far as touching that. That might be there for a reason. Is it live? Huh? Tik tik tik. Hello, hello. It’s live. Yeah, you’re not supposed to be touching… David, look at this. ♪ Birds flying high ♪ ♪ You know how I feel ♪ ♪ Sun in the sky ♪ ♪ You know how I feel ♪ Sing it with me, man.

♪ And I’m feeling good ♪

Hey, bring it in, give me a hug, dude. (laughs) How weird was that for you? Did I fool you or not? I just was watching you last night on video.

Hi guys, you all right? Hello. It’s my first day so I definitely don’t want to take too much of your time. I’ll show you that we do have beautiful CDs. I don’t know what happened but they made an order and the only CDs that came are Michael Bublé. I’m going to have a word with the manager. All right. Either they going to be selling a lot of elevators if you ask me. If you like Michael Bublé then you like Michael Bublé. I think maybe because it’s Christmas, maybe he’s going to come out of his cave or something. I wish. Oh, you do? What are all these here for? I guess, they were supposed to take a lot of other CDs but these are the ones that- What’s this? All the crap, crap. I’ve got that. You do? He’s got all of them. I like, if I had this- Where are you from? Jo’burg. If I had this, I’d use it as a coaster.

Don’t insult him. No, all right. Bublé’s good.

You like to take a seat? Please honestly, try it. Truly it is amazing. It’s amazing. Ah, look at that. We should try out the speakers as well. You know what I think we should do? Perhaps, is we should actually show mode one. Check this out. But wait because when we get to the mode two it actually feels like you’re there with the artist. I like it.

Good speaker. No it’s amazing. All right. It’s nice. With a massage, all right. All right, now you relax. And this is mode one. So just wait to be in mode two, all right? All right, mode two, check it out, go for it. It’s like you’re in it there with the artist. ♪ Birds flying high ♪ ♪ You know how I feel ♪ That’s pretty cool. ♪ Sun in the sky ♪ ♪ You know how I feel ♪ ♪ Breeze driftin’ on by ♪ Is that Michael Bublé? ♪ You know how I feel ♪ Are you joking? ♪ It’s a new dawn ♪ Do you want a massage? ♪ It’s a new day ♪ ♪ It’s a new life ♪ ♪ For me ♪ Yeah, it’s Bublé, I’m here, what? ♪ And I’m- ♪ Sing it with me.

♪ Feeling- ♪ ♪ good ♪ I can’t sing. Let me give you a hug. How are you? Good? Good. How are you? It’s nice to meet you. Yeah. It’s nice to meet you. It’s Michael Buble in disguise. And he was behind me, massaging my shoulders. This doesn’t happen to us. ♪ And I’m feeling good. ♪ Give me a hug. I’ve got tears mate. Are you crying? Don’t cry.

Yes, right underneath this stuff I look like someone you might know. You can’t mistake that amazing voice. Can I have a hug, finally? Oh my gosh! Now, you’re never going to let me go, are you? No.
