Customer Rating:      Summary: Josh Comment: What can I say. The man is God given and a thrill to listen to.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Josh Groban -- Awake Comment: Josh Groban's vocal style continues to grow in depth and expression. I especially enjoyed the diversity on this CD that included African musicians and their music.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Wake CD/DVD George Groban Comment: I was very disappointed after receiving the CD/DVD set from George Groban / AWAKE for a price of $ 24.99. The DVD is not the DVD I was expecting, it was just a behind the scene of making the Music Video DVD and NOT the MUSIC VIDEO itself! Amazon should have inform this to the buyers with the sale of the CD/DVD on the web.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Relax Comment: I have already listened to this new CD more than once and they were good opportunities to relax.
Customer Rating:      Summary: WOW! Comment: This CD/DVD set is absolutely wonderful. I especially enjoyed hearing Josh tell about making them. He is so gifted. His music and words just sweep me off my feet.

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
