Michael Buble has been working on a "sweet, traditional" Christmas album.

The star in a 30-minute Web chat, during which he revealed "Bells song, his favorite Christmas song of all time, but chatting to his fans. 'Miracle on 34th Street' is his favorite Christmas movies and Christmas mood anytime of the year.

Speaking from the world famous Capitol Studios in Hollywood, Buble revealed "I'm making a Christmas record (album). For those of you who know me and love me and admire me you will know...Christmas is my favourite time of the year. Mum and Dad gave us lots of love at Christmas and that's what I want to give back to people and I get sentimental when I think about it. Late October or early early November I smell Christmas."

"I think you guys can expect the best album I've made so far...this record is probably the most authentic, I just went fully live, cut everything off the floor. It's beautiful I think my voice sounds upfront, I think it's romantic and sweet, I've got some of the traditional Christmas stuff that makes you warm and cosy and then more modern songs that you can walk round the Christmas tree too."

"There's a couple of duets I really like, 'White Christmas' with Shania Twain and a duet of 'Jingle Bells' with the Puppini Sisters, they're not sisters but three girls who work really hard to bring their voices together in harmony - it's so cool."
