If you don't know who Josh Groban is your missing out!
He is one of the most talented singers in the music industry today.
We went to his concert at Target Center in Mpls.
It was a sell out! He had the best live performance I've ever seen.
Check this guy out on the grammys this Sunday.

2. My parents were heartbroken when they missed out on tickets
His concert sold out when he came to their area. I did like his version of O Holy Night this past Christmas. :hi:

5. Yeah!
I love this guy's voice. It is so beautiful. He can sing as opposed to the blonde bimbos out there "singing."

I'm looking forward to a Christmas CD. Thanks for the info! :bounce:

9. I like real singers... not ones that copy others...
he tries too hard to sound like Pavarotti... too bad he can't find his own voice.

17. Right, that's what I said.... uh huh...
Hey, look, apparently a lot of people like him... a lot of people like those winners from American Idol too... I don't see much difference. The only difference is that he is in a more legitimate genre and therefore is even less impressive to me with all the real talent that's out there... that's my opinion... he's a marketing baby, that's all.

19. If he comes to Portland and I can get tickets, I plan to take my 9 yr old

You don't know what your talking about.
P.s. It's not a sad song! It's uplifting.

21. I have one of his cd's (and I'm a major rock & roller, punk, &
grung fan) and I love it. This guys voice is simply incredible. I think it transcends genre and generations. IMHO he has one of the best voices I've ever heard - he's simply incredible.

24. he's not damaged
I like a singer with some damage :7

Little too bright eyed for my taste, but everyone digs what they dig.

To me, he's the male Celine Dion.

Welcome to DU btw :hi:

26. Who DOESN'T know Josh Groban?
His songs "You Raise Me Up" and "To Where You Are" are two of my favorites!
