anyone else completely in love with Josh Groban? even though he's a tenor singer, he still kicks ass :D and even if you don't like classical or opera style music you should still listen to his songs...his voice is amazing! I highly suggest: "To Where You Are" "Alle Luce" and "Let Me Fall"
-
OMG!! Yes!! I love Josh!!
-
yeah, his voice is great, but i dont like the stile of his music.
he started singing in a church choir, and when he was about 17 he did a duett with celine dion, because the singer who was meant to do the duett got ill or something.
AND he starred in AllyMcBeal
-
yeah i saw him on Alley! I'm addicted to that show and as soon as i heard him sing i was a fan :D
-
NO!!!
*gag*
*puke*
*vomit*
srry I don't like him...
-
yes, that is when I fell in love with him too, Ally McBeal!!
-
mmmmm that boy has a yummy voice :D
-
Josh Groban is spectacular. I think it's unfortunate that he didin't come out with more original songs to get started thoguh. His first CD is full of nothing but songs already done by Andrea Bocelli and the other "pop tenors" that are on the scene lately.
More original material would do that voice some good. But he is great! no doubt about it...
-
not only does he have a yummy voice but he's not so bad on the eyes either.. :wink: :D i actually really like his first album...i'm excited to see what he'll come up with next. i agree that he should do something origional, but i'm hoping he'll stay with tenor singing. i'm hoping that he'll make a nice progress like Charlotte Church did with "enchantment"...guess we'll have to see :)
-
I hung out with him at a party last month...he's one crazy guy let me tell you!
-
David, you are one lucky dude!! Or is he lucky? :wink:
If you know him, I know someone who wants to have his love child (besides me) I think he would be interested and if he is not, he has issues!!
-
I don't personally know him...just hung out with him for a few hours...he's a very nice guy!
-
that's cool :)
-
Great voice...don't dig the operaishness of it all.
Otherwise very cool.
-
very, very cool. i'm jealous! :) i would love to see him in concert...
-
he is so awesome!!! he has a kick ass voice and he cute too!!!lol
-
i know! he used to be my icon...but then rooney took over....he'll prolly come back sometime soon though :)
-
my mom likes josh groban. lol
i don't like that type of music

Yeah I love me some Josh Groban. I first saw him on Oprah. I went out and bought his cd soon after and tortured my friends on road trips with it! mwahahahaa
-

How mean!
He is possibly doing a cover of Linkin Park's beautiful and wonderful song, "My December" that song has a lot of meaning and a big influence in my life, and I swear to god if he touches that song! I fuckin hate him!
-
My December is a kick ass song... if he does do a cover I would love to hear that... and you would do well to give him a chance DM... just like those Piano solos were kick ass... so could a Josh Groban cover...
-
Well yes Jason I do agree it would be nice, but that song, just like the rest of Linkin Park's songs and the band members themselves have so much meaning behind them, to me. They have pulled me through alot of the ruff things I have had to go through and ESPECIALLY if he screws the song up...I will hunt him down and kill him!

8O eek! i should think that it would be good....Josh has an amazing voice (personal opinion). but who knows...it could turn out to suck major assage. Guess we'll have to wait and see!
-
oh just bear (bare?) in mind that Josh is a pretty classical style singer, so Josh's version is going more than likely going to be a lot different from the original....
-
Have you heard the original jlmusicchick?
-
not yet, but from much badgering from my good friend who is an avid fan and is unhealthily obsessed with the song, i'm going to download it. i'm sure it will be good, all the stuff i've heard from LP so far has been very good.
-

-
thanks! :) i already downloaded it from Kazaa.....it's pretty good!
-
yep
-
Josh's new cd comes out November 11th! whoop whoop! it has an awesome song called "You Raise Me Up" (you might have heard it on the promo for the "Saving Jessica Lynch" movie on NBC), you can get a pretty good portion of it off of Kazaa. you can go here: http://www.joshgroban.com/ to get more information on it.
and if you want to get his cd for really cheap and get tons of extras, become a Josh Groban Fan here: http://www.friendsofjoshgroban.com/
if you do end up getting the one with the tons of extras, then you'll get his version of "My December"...it has yet to be leaked on Kazaa, so i guess we'll have to wait.
-
it has an awesome song called "You Raise Me Up" you might have heard it on the promo for the "Saving Jessica Lynch" movie on NBC
oh he sings that? I thought it was Clay Aiken, teeheehee. **i know my sis is gonna beat me when she sees me next for that one!**

no, i'm going to take the highroad on this one.....and instead i'm going to bitch slap you. :-P
-
His new album comes out today. I gotta go get it. I should have pre-ordered it but I did not.
I am very excited that he is going on tour. I have my eye on Jan 27 in Sacramento.
-
lol, i convinced my dad to join the fan club so we could get the extra extra featured album! i'm such a dork. the only prob is that he won't pay over the internet, so we have to wait four weeks to get it, so i might just buy the regular one at walmart to hold me over :-P
i know what you mean about him going on tour! i'm so happy! i'm trying to convince dad to take me to the NYC show, it's the only one relatively near where i live, but i doubt he will. eh well. i hope you get to go let!
-
yeah I thought about joining too, I am not sure why I haven't. I think it was cause the only thing that interested me was getting pre-order concert tickets two days sooner. But really it's not a concert where I want to be up front dancing or anything.
But I know that there will be many tears shed at that concert. I just love his music. Like "Oceano" I have no idea what he is saying but you can just hear his passion and it just is so pretty. aaahhhh
Thanks I am going to get tickets for me and my mom since I didn't take her with me to see Celine.
-
I totally forgot about GMA today, crap!!
I don't know what part of NY you are in but there wa an in-store today at Virgin.
-

I don't know what part of NY you are in but there wa an in-store today at Virgin.
GMA?
i live about four hours north of there, that's why it takes a lot of persuading on my part to get my dad to agree to go! damn i wish i had known, i would have tried to get him to take me!
we're singing Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring in my choir! We actually don't sound half bad either :wink:
i know what you mean about the passion in his songs. i think that's what makes him more than just a tenor opera singer. You can tell he really means what he's saying, which makes it even better than it already is.
-
GMA is Good Morning America, sorry. I thought you knew.
I just got back from Best Buy and they had the limited edition on sale from $27.99 to $17.99 so I got it. :D

-
yeah thanks to jessie he'll never get a date now :wink: good job sis
:twisted: (sorry, inside joke)
-
I forgot to tell you I got tickets!! Yay for me!!
Did you get the cd yet? I love #3, "Mi Mancherai" well all of them really but yeah :wink:
-
woo hoo! *is so jealous* yeah, i bought the regular cd, our membership still has yet to be processed, which means i'm going to be waiting at least a good two months for the extra extra cd. I looooove "remember when it rained" and "never let go." "Broken Vow" is also pretty good, it sounds a LOT better than the orgininal version!
-
Thanks, I am pretty excited about it. I also got tickets to the LA show. He has pretty much sold out every show in the first few hours.
I just saw that his entire tour except Radio City is sold out!! Hurry get tickets.
-
Josh Groban is great. I didn't realy listen to him til about two days ago. He's got a great tone to his voice. It's very soothing.
-
he was in people magazine - woo hoo! the only problem was that the critic was really harsh on his new cd :evil: oh well, i don't care what critics say, i looooooooooove his new cd :D
-
I am going to see Josh today!! Yay!! I am so excited, I can't wait. There were mixed reviews at the Seattle show, which is weird but... everyone has their own opinions. I will give you mine lata :wink:

Have an AWESOME time Let!!!!!!!! I expect Pictures (*if they let you take any*) and full review! Oooh it'd be so cool if you could meet him! haha. well have fun!
-
Hey thanks!! I am so excited. It would be cool to meet him, and my seats aren't close so I doubt pictures or a meeting :cry: but it will be cool just to see and hear him.
*dies*
-
Ooh I'm sooooo jealous! I hope you have fun!
-
My french teacher is in love with him...that kind of made me want to stay away from any of his stuff.
-
awe, you should give it a try. He is so good!! I love him.
The show was great. When you have someone who's voice is so amazing you always have doubts as to whether or not they can pull it off live. But let me tell you he was incredible. In the first part of his show (there was an intermission) I did hear a few missed notes. The second part was really strong. I did get teary/choked up during a few songs.
He had a 15 piece orchestra plus a band, you know; bass guitar, guitar, drummer, percussionist, pianist.
It was kinda sad I read the article cause I knew what to expect. But it was cool. The violinst was really good. She played barefoot and changed dresses twice. She had so much passion in her playing. Just like Josh with his singing.
He sang 19 songs. It was great!! I didn't want it to end.
I know his tour is sold out but if you can someone how make it. You should go.
-
Omg Let, that's amazing! You don't know how incredibly jealous i am of you!!!! :-P woot! I'm glad you had a good time! and 19 songs? that's a lot! do you remember any of the songs he sang?
-
Here's what I got:
"Oceano" he was on a platform and there was a screen where it looked like waves were crashing all around him. He was wearing black pants a black shirt and black sports coat
"My Confession"
There was a song after MC but I don't remember the name
"Mi Moncherai" This is my favorite and it was soo good. I got choked up
"Mi Moreana"
"To Where You Are" This one too made me teary
"Allejeta"
"Let Me Fall" He was like walking up the stairs and at the end he fell.
Then there was an intermission
Josh came out in Jeans and a Maroon longsleeve button shirt
"Alla Luce Dal Sole"
This is my December (I never heard this one so I don't know the name)
"Broken Vow"
"Caruso" this one stood out too
"Remember When It Rained"
"Vincent"
The violin girl Lucia did a solo while Josh changed he put on a white longsleeve shirt
"You Raise Me Up" there were stairs on each side of the stage and a choir came out on each side during the song to join in, really cool
"Per Te"
Then two encores
"Gira Con Me"
"Never Let Go"
so there you have it, sorry I can't remember the other song.
-
Ooooh! He sang My December! I"m so jealous! it's one of the songs that's on the fan club cd which we have yet to order.
He pretty much sang all of my favorites! *issojealous* :-P
-
I figured it was from that cd since I didn't know it.
They totally let cameras in but no flash. I was way back so I didn't even try. But... I did take a few 30 second AVI's and they came out pretty good sound wise.

what are AVI's?
-
Oh. My. God. I suck at life. Josh is singing in Syracuse, which is one hour away from me. However, it's a school night, and he doesn't start until 8 p.m., and tickets are $73 a pop, so i can't go. :evil:

-

Crap that I missed it. I was flipping the channels from noon on. Ugh!!
He sings in English, Spanish, Italian, and French... he is so great. I love the foreign songs. Don't know what he's saying but they are so great.
-
I love the foreign songs. Don't know what he's saying but they are so great.
What a classic Let comment. I <3 Let.
-

lol, tis the truth! he puts so much emotion behind his songs! He was shaking when he sang You Raise Me Up before kick off, you could tell he was putting everything in to it. granted, it could have been the fact that it was freezing outside, but i'd like to think it was because he was singing his soul in to it :-P
-
freezing in houston, texas?
-
lol, well blonde jessica strikes again :-P I didn't know it was being held in texas, i don't follow the superbowl much less footbal itself. but from the looks of it it did look like he was cold..... :oops:
-
he's on Oprah now. mmmmmmmmthat voice is just, YUM!
-
he's on Oprah now. mmmmmmmmthat voice is just, YUM!
grr i missed it! What was it like? what did he sing?
-
hes in denver tonight(really close to me) im not able to go :cry:
but considering i just went to a concert, its all good :wink:
-
I LOVE Josh Groban!! His voice is amazing- definitely one of the best voices I have ever heard lately.. we are in desperate need of talent like him nowadays in the music world.. wouldn't you guys agree? I kind of get all tearful when I hear "you raise me up" it's a very beautiful song.
Josh has an amazing voice- he reminds me of Clay Aiken everytime I hear "you raise me up" didn't Clay sing that song on AI?
-
He sings in English, Spanish, Italian, and French... he is so great. I love the foreign songs. Don't know what he's saying but they are so great.
lol I didn't know he also sang in foreign, that is rockin. Though I am listening to Oceano right now and just realized that. I love this song.
Haha I just was thinkin, if my mom heard me listening to his music she'd probably be all O_o.
-
he's on Oprah now. mmmmmmmmthat voice is just, YUM!
grr i missed it! What was it like? what did he sing?
He sang "you raise me up" to Oprah for her b-day from her producers and her staff saying that is how they feel about her- it was magical.. *dies*
-
he's on Oprah now. mmmmmmmmthat voice is just, YUM!
grr i missed it! What was it like? what did he sing?
Today they were showing behind the scenes of Oprah's birthday parties and show. The producer of the show said that they heard "You Raise Me Up" and it was how they felt about Oprah so they had him come sing it. It made her cry and everyone else including me :wink:
so glad you gave him a chance, I am sure your mom will love him too.
Glad you like my comments Rosie, love ya too!!
-
damn dial up. Yeah what Laura said.
OMG you did not say he reminds you of Clay Aiken, ew... not even!! :twisted:
-
I heard him for the first time on Oprah!
he is amazing :o :D
-
OMG you did not say he reminds you of Clay Aiken, ew... not even!! :twisted:
Haha, no no no- just because Clay sang that song on American Idol.. so everytime I hear "you raise me up" I think of Clay singing it on AI. Clay suuucks compared to Josh tho.. you can't even compare.
-
8O what!! You never heard him!!
He was just in LA last week, you missed him Jacq!!
On his site you can check out some of the songs. My favorites on the first album was "To Where You Are" and on the new one "Mi Mancherai"

-
I just got his album Closer last night! Amazing album! My favorites are "Oceano" "My Confession" and "You raise me up".. even tho I get all sad when I hear "You raise me up". Great songs, great voice- he is very talented.
-
yay!! so glad you got it and like it.

-
omg you guys! I might get to see Josh!!
I'm not sure yet, but my friend said her uncle got free tickets since he works at a radio station and everything and she told me in class today and I was totally freaking out lol I was like "omg can I go with you guys!?" and she said that she was gonna ask if she can get me a ticket, and my mom said I could go and everything! I think she said he's gonna be here in a couple weeks I forget when, but I know it's on a Saturday! That would be so awesome!! :D
Man, two major concerts in one month.. crazy!
I'll let you guys know if I'm going for sure tho!
-

Looks like I'm not gonna go. My friend couldn't get an extra ticket.. oh well.

-
Just bought the cd, and I love it so much.
He is amazing!!!
I'm so glad I bought the cd.

and
"Oceano"
Manda
-
so into the cd its so great!!!!
-Manda-
-
Josh....sigh
so amazing and HOT
I wanna start a fan site on him *giggles*
-
*brings post from grave*
I love Josh..very very much....that is all 8)
-
So Josh is pretty much amazing live. Saw him when I went to the idol gives back show & wow his performance made me cry the most. The African Choir kids got a standing ovation when they came out & when they were done, it was cool.
I dont think I would be able to sit through a whole Josh Groban concert if I got that emotional during you raise me up lol maybe it was just the whole show in general that got me emotional I dunno. But yeah, glad I got to finally see him.
-
I saw him about a year ago in concert & loved it even more than I thought I would. A lot of his songs are very powerful & he is insanely talented.
-
Hmmm... its just that You Raise Me Up doesnt have much lyrics which kinda makes it boring to sing ... but otherwise the song is pretty much emphatic...and with a voice like grobans... you feel it...totally...
Oh yeah the idol gives back thing was neat... it totally suited the situation
-
I havent listened to much of his music..though his "february song" is one of my all time favourite songs..
