Amongst other things, this DVD takes you behind the scenes of his AWAKE music videos and photo shoots, tells you the thought process behind the writing and choosing of the albums songs and shows you the gadget of the future - the shoe phone! {watch the DVD!}
Inspired by a visit with Nelson Mandela to South Africa, Josh set up THE JOSH GROBAN FOUNDATION to help children in need through healthcare, the arts and education. Mandela appointed Groban as an Official Ambassador for Mandela's Project 46664, a campaign to help raise Global awareness of HIV/AIDS in Africa. Also on September 2nd 2007, Groban donated $150,000 to Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools to fund music education.
Some of Groban's musical and vocal influences have been Radiohead, Paul Simon, Sting, Peter Gabriel, Björk, Mandy Patinkin, Klaus Nomi, George Hearn and Luciano Pavarotti.
I first discovered Groban on the soundtrack to the 2004 animated film The Polar Express singing BELIEVE, and have been enthralled by him ever since!
If you like Josh Groban, this album is his most modern, and so he is showcased to the best of his ability.
If you've never come across Josh Groban, start at the beginning and purchase his first 2 albums, then you will fully appreciate this mans talents,
Utterly fabulous!
Rating: - Excellent album of Josh finding himself
This album is brilliant - it has a combination of classic songs and more modern style songs, and its the combination of these styles which brings the album together. Moreover you can hear Josh is developing his singing and songwriting skills if you listen to his lyrics and the music - he seems to be finding himself after having had a good kick start with his debut and "Closer".
The DVD is fun to watch especially as it shows Josh as his usual, loveable, goofy self!
Rating: - a new superstar
having been a singer since 1962 and having listened to some great singers over those 40+years Josh Groban is in my opinion one of the most eloquent Ive ever heard."You are loved"(dont give up) is a beautiful song sung with such depth of feeling it brought tears to my eyes.A truly talented artist one who deserves all the success in the world.
Rating: - Extremely good value again.
I became a fan of Josh's having seen him perform on Classic FMTV. He has a beautiful voice and this album, like his others consists of songs in English and others in Italian (I think?). The DVD is about the making of the CD album and not a visual performance of Josh singing the tracks on the album. It grew on me after a few playings and I now think that it is a great CD. Words to all 15 (INCLUDES 2 BONUS TRACKS) songs included.
Very good value for money.
Rating: - A very good album.
This is the third and latest album from Josh Groban. It is in a different and refrshing style from his last two. As expected, it contains really beautiful songs. He is even rocking out a bit with some drums and a little guitar. Another nice thing is that he has started using his falsetto more which is really good and adds a nice touch and variety to his songs.
Good voice, good songs, good lyrics. Also the DVD is funny and gives us an insight into what Josh is like. He has a nice personality from what I have seen.
