Was just wondering if anybody was a fan. He was also a part of the Chess Benefit... with Adam Pascal, Sutton Foster.
He sang at the Olympics ceremony 2002 with Charlotte Church.
He is an amazing classical singer... and he is currently on tour!

It started with a sipmle idea, collecting one paper clip for every life lost, the feelings that connect us...are greater than those that divide us!

Yay! I'm so glad that you guys love him too.
I know that the majority of people used to be older... when I went to the first concert, my sister and I were the only ones under 20! But now it's different.
Thanks!

Posted: 12/1/04 at 9:23pmBut isn't he slightly twee and goody goody? Good singer, but there must be some subliminal messages in his records...

Posted: 12/2/04 at 5:13amI love him... I think his voice is absolutely amazing. Did anyone ever hear his duet with Barbra Streisand? Fabulous!! That's how I first heard of him, and when I heard that song ("All I Know Of Love") I immediately went out and bought his cd. I must say, his version of "Vincent" (Starry, Starry Night) has got to be my favorite version of that song.

Random bit of info: he had a tonsillectomy, because they were chronically inflamed and inhibiting his singing.
Reading about how getting them removed helped him sing better really helped me get over the fear of my tonsillectomy (I'm a singer with chronically inflamed tonsils, should have had them out years ago!). Go Josh :)

Oh I just saw him in concert this past summer. He was very impressive. DId anyone else see the concert? He had this Violin player who was amazing as well. She played this great solo to Bohemian Rhapsody (sp?)
I would have loved to see that Chess concert... if only they would have recorded it!

Posted: 12/2/04 at 8:41amwonderful voice and I was impressed when I saw him at a young age. His stage presence was already so mature.

Posted: 12/2/04 at 9:06amOh I love Josh Groban. My algebra teacher introduced me to him last year. She used to play music while we did our work. What an amazing voice. I wish I could have seen him in Chess last year.

I remember seeing him with Sarah Brightman in concert and on "Ally McBeal" and thought he had a great voice. I love his cd's now as much.
(and look for him in the Sarah Brightman La Luna dvd - tour documentary)
