Michael Bublé is showing you can go home again.
With the help of Roxane Bruneau, the Canadian singer’s 2005 hit “Home” is getting a French language spin, as “Home (Version Française)” debuts at No. 19 on the Billboard Canada AC Airplay chart, dated March 7.
The reimagined duet trades in the soft rock ballad soundscape for a warm, upbeat synth. Bublé starts the song in French, before Bruneau takes over with her soft-spoken vocals.
Throughout the three-minute track, the two singers alternate between the verses, only dipping in and out of English to close out the track in a call-and-response with Bublé: “It'll all be alright / Tout ira bien/ I'll be home tonight / Je reviens demain,” they sing.

The duet marks the pair’s first-ever collaboration. Bublé personally contacted Bruneau to collaborate after they performed together at the Juno Awards gala in Vancouver last March.
“When you share the stage with someone like Roxane, it reminds you why you fell in love with music,” he says. “She has so much sincerity and authenticity in her voice. I loved the idea of her taking this song, which holds such a special place in my heart, and bringing it into her own world.”
Bruneau — who notched a solo entry on the AC chart chart last November — expresses gratitude for working with Bublé.
“Michael is an exceptional artist and person. The day after the gala, he wrote to me to say he loved working with me and that he’d like to do it again. He wasn’t going to ask me twice! After a few conversations, it was agreed that we would sing a duet of his song," she says.
Bublé has plenty of charting hits, recently extending his record as his Christmas album hit No. 1 in Canada for the 10th non-consecutive year. “Home” didn't chart on the Canadian Hot 100, which debuted two years after the song's release, but charted on the Billboard Hot 100 stateside, peaking at No. 72 and spending 20 weeks on the chart.

It's a big week for Quebec artists on the chart, as Jay Scøtt’s “On My Way” debuts at No. 30.
Fuelled by a catchy melody, the artist, born Pier-Luc Jean Papineau, flirts between a country ditty and an indie-folk number. On the track, he gets introspective, revealing his desire to move forward and never look back, bidding farewell to darker times in his life. He takes listeners on an emotional journey, blending personal storytelling with a contemporary sound.
“I don't want to drown my sorrows anymore / I need to learn to swim in warm water / I aimed for the mountaintop and I'm on my way,” he sings.
The theme of perseverance is deeply present on the singer’s latest album, Toutes les rues sont silencieuses, as he muses that making peace with the past is necessary to move forward. Weaving through numerous falls led him to success, as Toutes les rues secured Papineau his first-ever Juno nomination for francophone album of the year in 2025.

William Cloutier & Zach Chico’s “Ou On Dansait Autrefois” sits at No. 18, Laurence Nerbonne’s “Greenlight” hits a new peak at No. 21, while bilingual pop singer Alicia Moffett drops 25-29 with “Lay Your Light.”
Another big Canadian debut comes for rap-rock band Down With Webster with “All Night” at No. 39 on the CHR/Top 40 chart after the group made headlines for their performance at Mark Carney's victory party last year.
The songs at the top stay strong this week. Bruno Mars’ “I Just Might” locks down the No. 1 spot on All-Format, AC, CHR/Top 40 and Hot AC, while Olivia Dean’s chart-topping “Man I Need” sits at No. 2.

Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” maintains the top spot on Canada Country, but Max McNown’s “Better Me For You (Brown Eyes)” hits a new peak at No. 2, possibly threatening Langley’s reign. The same goes for Three Days Grace, who score another week at No. 1 on Mainstream Rock with “Kill Me Fast,” but could be facing dethronement by YUNGBLUD’s “Zombie,” which sits one spot down.
On Modern Rock, sombr spends a second week at the top with “12 To 12,” after bumping Boy Golden’s “Suffer” to No. 2.
