Summary: Josh Groban rocks!
Comment: Awake
Josh Groban's music can only be described as 'beautiful'. Even the selections that are not in English just grab hold of you and make you want to listen over and over. I can only describe it by saying that it touches my heart in a very special way. He is, by far, my favorite performer.

Summary: Loved it!
Comment: I first saw and heard Josh on the Jimmy Kimmel show during the Matt Daemon love skit. I bought the album based on the show and my sister's recommendation. The album is very enchanting. My favorite song is So She Dances; its so beautiful.

Summary: Awake
Comment: Josh Groban is the most exciting new singer of romance/opera this decade. His voice incorporates a very unique carisma that seems to caress your psyche. When I listen to him singing, I am spiritually refreshed.

Josh Groban is making it hard for anybody who can't say "classical crossover" without smirking to maintain an acceptable level of snobbery. Awake, his third studio disc and arguably his most personal--he co-wrote four tracks and favors his native English over Italian--boasts as many bold names as any tricked-out hip-hop disc: Dave Matthews, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Imogen Heap, and Herbie Hancock contribute in various capacities, and a slew of behind-the-scenes collaborators best known for their work in mainstream pop circles deepen the dimensions of a style widely considered claustrophobic. For all the studio doors that got opened to create Awake, though, Groban's signature sound never once slipped out to take the air; "the voice"--that hypnotic, spun-silk wonder of an instrument--is as concentrated as ever, and Awake, in addition to showing off its many splendors, serves as a vehicle for parading its versatility around. While "Un Giorno Per Noi," the deeply romantic theme to the 1968 film Romeo E Giulietta, delivers the Groban that fueled the sale of 16 million previous discs to soft-hearted fans, "Machine," with Hancock, gives up a new form of funk: dignified, classy, and surprisingly unstiff. --Tammy La Gorce
