There's a reason why Both of Josh Groban's two studio albums sold 5 million copies each and that is because he is by far the best male vocalist in the music industry. Some might find his songs sappy and too sentimental and you know what..they actually are, but in an amazingly beautiful and moving way that you can rarely find in music these days.

His voice which is uncomparable and unmatchable makes his music work, and with the help of some production and writing skills of high profile acts such as Dave Mathews Band and Electronic singer/songwriter and producer Imogen heap, you just know that he can't go wrong.

I have been listening to this record for the past month and I just can't get enough of it..I always get hooked to his music because he sings not only for the ears, but for the heart as well.

Rating: 9/10

Check out these songs, you won't be dissapointed hopefully if you're looking for music with good vocals and good lyrics.

Download:

You are loved (Don't give up): http://www.sendspace.com/file/ddjnz8

"Don't give up
I t's just the weight of the world
When your heart's heavy I
I will lift it for you

Don't give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you I
I will break it for you"

--------

February song: http://www.sendspace.com/file/64zaw4

"And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day"

--------

So She Dances: http://www.sendspace.com/file/7nsmln

"A waltz when she walks in the room
She pulls back the hair from her face
She turns to the window
To sway in the moonlight
Even her shadow has grace

A waltz for the girl out of reach
She lifts her hands up to the sky
She moves with the music
The song is her lover
The melody's making her cry"

---------

Now Or Never: http://www.sendspace.com/file/uveycf

"And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me on this endless night
And as the hours run away with another life
Oh, darling can't you see
It's now or never, it's now or never"

I bought Veritas, It's Now or Never, and Awake from that album ... I think on the day it came out on iTunes :)

I just love the man's voice and have ever since he was on Ally McBeal back in the 90's! The best thing he did was to have the wisdom to continue training his voice and allow it to mature instead of "cashing in" as a teen. I agree that many of his songs are sappy, but his voice is so amazin g that he gets away with it :)

You are loved: 9/10

Don't give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you,I.... I will shine to guide you...

This guy's got a way with words....

Sensation: It's great that you liked his music. The rest of the tracks off his album are not in english though..all his albums contain a mixture of italian and english songs. You should try and check out songs off his previous two albums especially:

- Remember when it rained
- Don't let go
- You raise me up
- You're still you
- Here to stay

and many more.

I agree with what you have said about him.
These songs are relaxing and "You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)" is so inspirational. I liked it and "February Song" the most. Beautiful lyrics..
