Pop singer Michael Buble [ tickets ] is one of the fortunate who loves his job--and, when he performs live, it couldn't be more evident. Even he knows that.

"Expect to come and be taken away for a couple hours," Buble said about his live show. "I really, sincerely love what I do for a living. The fact that I get to do this and do what I love with these people … They're gonna see that right away. The production is going to be extravagant in some places, but very intimate in others. I think you'll get a great beginning, middle and end. There will be parts that are bombastic. It's now, obviously, an arena show. It's a rock show. There will be parts that should be quiet and intimate and small. I'm hoping that people enjoy the trip. I know I'm going to enjoy taking them on it."

Come March, Buble will head out on tour in support of his recent top-selling album, "Crazy Love," which is his first release in two and a half years. It follows his previous No. 1 set, "Call Me Irresponsible."

Calling from Argentina--where he was spending time with fiancee Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre, who stars in his video "Haven't Met You Yet"--Buble spoke to LiveDaily about his "family," the concept behind "Crazy Love" and his betrothed.

LiveDaily: Congratulations on your engagement.

Michael Buble: Thank you very much. I'm pleased she asked. Finally, a big enough dowry was offered. I got cattle. I got some land. [Laughs]

You got quite the good deal.

[Laughs] Yeah.

You must be looking forward to your tour.

I am really looking forward to it. It's been a long time. I've been off the road for a long time. I can't wait to reconnect with my family.

Do you consider your fans your family?

I consider my fans part of my family. I consider my crew and my band part of my extended family. Absolutely. It's going to be nice to get home.

What are you looking forward to the most?

Honest to God, just getting to connect with everybody again. As an entertainer, you get to connect on this conscious level with so many people. It's a huge gift as a human being to be that conscious and that aware in a moment like that, get to do what you love so much and share it with those people. It's something I'm blessed to be able to do.

You must have been flattered that the demand was such that they had to release your album several days early.

Yeah, definitely, I was excited. It's funny, because, through this whole thing, people will tell you the business is going through a change and it's going through a tough time. I truly believe that people still want music as much as they ever did. The business is just in transition, that's all. People are still buying music. They might buy it in a different way, but it's the fabric of our life. I felt I had a great record and a great concept. I believed in it fully. When I talked to the president of the label in meetings before it was released, they told me not to expect as much as I had on the last record. I told them, realistically, I expected to do more. I'm glad I was right.

Yes, you were right. You spent two weeks at No. 1 in the United States.

Yeah, it's the fastest-selling record I've had. It was out Oct. 16 and worldwide it's at about 4.2 [million]. People say, "Oh, it's the business." It's not that. Music still sells.

What was the concept behind the album?

I think the concept was emotional honesty, to be as honest as I could under the circumstances. To sort of show growth as an artist without alienating the 20 million people that have invested in me as an artist for seven years before. I worked with the greatest producers in the world. I worked with people like David Foster, Bob Rock and Humberto Gatica so that I could grow while not forgetting where I came from. It was important for me to be authentic and to make a record that felt as good as it sounded.

What does someone like Bob Rock bring to your music?

Bob--I call him "The Dude" actually--he's a musicologist. He defies genres. Loves music, all kinds of music. He had a very easy way about him. He's like "The Dude" [Jeff Bridges' character from the film "The Big Lebowski."]. He never worries. He always knows it's going to be OK. He has a certain idea of how it's going to sound in the end. No matter how long it takes, he knows he's going to get there. He brought an organic feel to the record. There was a certain edginess without trying too hard.
