There's no denying Michael Bublé is one of the biggest selling artists around.

But despite his illustrious career in music, the 'Home' hitmaker has revealed he has one life goal that he thinks he'll never be able to achieve.

Speaking to BBC News, the Canadian crooner admitted that he would love to record a James Bond theme song, but that it won't happen because he's not British ...

"I would do a killer theme, but unfortunately I would have to not be born in Canada. Name someone who's not English," Bublé said.

The interviewer pointed out that American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish had performed the most recent Bond theme, the multi-award-winning 'No Time To Die', which she co-wrote with her brother Finneas O'Connell.

"She did not!" a surprised Bublé replied.

"Maybe it's because she's so awesome. Maybe if you're THAT awesome you don't need the passport. Is she English? A little bit English? She sounds very English. 'Billie Aiiiiilish'."

Out of the 24 official 007 themes, only five have been recorded by English stars: 'From Russia With Love' by Matt Munro, 'Live and Let Die' by Paul McCartney, Duran Duran's 'A View To A Kill', Adele's 'Skyfall' and Sam Smith's 'Writing's On The Wall'.

We think the 46-year-old is definitely in with a chance!
