Michael Buble’ – Anema Core

Michael’s first singing engagements were in nightclubs at the age of 16 and were facilitated by his Italian grandfather Demetrio Santagà, a plumber originally from the small town of Preganziol, in the district of Treviso, who offered his plumbing services in exchange for stage time for his grandson. Bublé’s grandfather paid for his singing lessons. One of his vocal instructors was Joseph Shore, the opera baritone. His maternal grandfather never stopped believing that he would become a star. Bublé’s maternal grandmother, Iolanda (née Moscone), was also Italian, from Carrufo, Villa Santa Lucia degli Abruzzi, Italy. His father is also of Italian descent. His original brush with entertainment was as a children’s entertainer using the name Mickey Bubbles.

Bublé grew up listening to his grandfather’s collection of jazz records and credits his grandfather in encouraging his love for jazz music. “My grandfather was really my best friend growing up. He was the one who opened me up to a whole world of music that seemed to have been passed over by my generation.

The song Anema Core was first introduced in 1950. Three sets of English lyrics have been written to this song:

The first set of lyrics were written, under the title “Until” by Sylvia Dee and Sidney Lippman. The best-known recording of this song was recorded by Dinah Shore. It has also been recorded by Dean Martin.

Anema e core/With All My Heart and Soul
Another set of English lyrics were written by Manny Curtis and Harry Akst. This version was sometimes recorded under the Italian title and sometimes under the English title “With All My Heart and Soul”.

The biggest hit version was recorded by Eddie Fisher with Hugo Winterhalter’s orchestra and chorus at Manhattan Center, New York City, on February 11, 1954.

A song of the same title was recorded by Perry Como both in 1951 and in 1966 for an album, Perry Como In Italy and by Michael Bublé more recently.

One recording, by Connie Francis, includes mostly the Italian lyric and Sergio Franchi covered this song in his second RCA Victor Red Seal album Our Man From Italy in 1963.
