Art Streiber/NBC Michael Bublé will return toThe Voicethis fall This makes him one of the only artists in recent years to be a coach for more than two consecutive seasons "This is the best job I've ever had. Going to work every day is a joy, and I'm so thrilled to be back for Season 28," Bublé tells PEOPLE exclusively Michael Bubléis stepping into the role of coach forThe Voiceonce again! On Monday, May 12, NBC is announcing that the Canadian musician, 49, will be returning to the singing competition show this fall for his third season — making him one of the only artists in recent years to be a coach for more than two consecutive seasons. "This is the best job I've ever had. Going to work every day is a joy, and I'm so thrilled to be back for Season 28," Bublé tells PEOPLE exclusively. "I remember being just like these contestants. I know how badly they want it and how hard it is to get there. I've had my dream come true, and the fact that I get to be a part of helping someone else in their journey to do that same thing, there's nothing better. It is really fulfilling." He continues, "There's a reason whyThe Voiceremains such a success after so many years, and it's because it really is about the artists. The talent on this show is incredible, and it's been such a beautiful experience to be a part of the process." Bublé began as a coach onThe Voiceseason 26 in 2024 alongsideGwen Stefani,Reba McEntireandSnoop Dogg, and he previously served as an advisor before that. The first-ever contestant he coached,Sofronio Vasquez, took home grand place that year, making him the first Filipino singer to win the US version ofThe Voice. After Bublé's first-ever blind audition experience that year, the "Feeling Good" croonertold NBCthat it wasn't "what I'm best at." "It's hard to advocate for yourself in that way. And when I did, I tried to do it with humor, to be self-deprecating and to hope that you could break down barriers that way," he shared following the end of the season. "It would have been harder for me, I think in other seasons where there was a different energy, like more of an edge of Coaches kind of fighting each other. But I was trying to be genuine, to tell people that I might be able to help them, and use humor, again, just to break down those walls. Because my dad always said: If you're good, you don't have to tell people."

The Grammy winner previously shared in September last year during an appearance onTodaythat he wasapproached to do the show over 15 timesbefore he finally said yes. Part of the reason he turned it down was because he didn't want the pressure of judging other vocalists. "But thank God we're not judges. The other shows have judges — we are coaches," he said at the time. "And the reason I say that is because most of the singers are better than me, and I have no place ever judging anyone," he added. "So, to get to coach them and live the fantasy of having this career that I've had and then get to have the fulfillment of helping someone else get that? That's the cool part."

As of last week, Bublé still has two team members left as they advance to the next round of live shows —Jadyn CreeandAdam David. Just last month, Bublé sung the praises of Cree, after she took the stage with her fellow Team Bublé contestant Braxton Garza and sang "Danny's Song" for the battle round. After the performance, each coach offered feedback for both contestants — and Bublé told her that her performance was "flawless." "Jadyn, I don't think you know how great you are. You could win this show, for sure," he told the contestant. During a one-on-one interview after the decision, Bublé called Jadyn a "superstar." The PEOPLE Appis now available in the Apple App Store!

"Part of it is that I think she's truly humble." Bublé tells PEOPLE, "I won last season, and I'm back to win it again next week. Let's go for three in a row!"
