Product Description

CD Description
Renowned for his emotive and powerful tenor/baritone, multi-million selling singer Josh Groban here collects some of his most well-known and best-loved tunes. From his beginnings as a straight pop/rock singer performing his own work, to his better-known incarnation as a gifted interpreter of songs from musicals and the light-classical realm, this collectionpaints a comprehensive picture of this far-reaching artist.Also included on this release is a bonus disc of festive favourites both light and serious - among them such favouritesas 'Silent Night', 'Little Drummer Boy' and 'Petit Papa Noel'.

About the Artist
Josh Groban burst on to the international music scene in 2001 with the release of his self-titled debut album featuring the hit single, "To Where You Are." His follow up CD "Closer" with the smash hit "You Raise Me Up" brought enormous success to the young singing sensation. He has made scores of television appearances beginning with Ally McBeal and continuing with countless performances on Oprah Winfrey, Good Morning America, The Today Show, two PBS specials, the Superbowl, the Oscars and the closing ceremonies of the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics with an audience of over 2 billion people. His first PBS Special went on to become the No. 1 selling DVD of 2002. On the touring front, Groban started out his now legendary 40-city concert tour (which sold out in a record breaking 20 minutes) and then went straight forward to a two year arena tour across the US.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Wonderful Collection, 31 Oct 2008
By Oz (Scotland) - See all my reviews
Anyone who adores Josh and that heavenly voice as much as I will almost certainly have all the tracks featured on the CD, with the exception of the song from Chess, but we Grobanites all know we're gonna buy this collection anyway!
There is a great range of his songs on the CD from all his albums, which makes it a perfect gift for someone you want to convert to Grobanism, or if you've only recently become a fan and want to experience the best of Josh. I don't own it yet but I'd confidently promise anyone that it is well worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars ...from light classical to show tunes, Groban gets the best-of treatment, just in time for Christmas..., 28 Nov 2008
By Mr. H "the-rocker.co.uk" (Embra) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
Josh Groban is insanely popular in America, but mention his name to someone in the UK and you'll get one of two responses -- either a shrug or a reply of "Didn't he sing that Westlife song?" -- both of which are just plain wrong.

A lot of people sneer at pop/classical crossovers, but the record-buying public seems to love them regardless; hence the regular chart appearances of the likes of Il Divo, G4 and Jonathan Ansell, amongst others. With 25 million album sales to his name, Josh Groban likewise rates high with a lot of people. So even if it seems a bit early in the game, he releases his first best-of collection in Europe.

Each of his three studio albums -- 2001's Josh Groban, 2004's Closer, and 2006's Awake -- are well represented, highlighting his incredibly melodic tenor voice. As well, there are a couple of live tracks thrown in for good measure, including the previously unreleased "Anthem" and a version of "Weeping" recorded with the Soweto Gospel Choir at the Mandela Concert in Hyde Park, London. His voice has added resonance live, so it's a shame nothing from his three live albums -- Josh Groban in Concert, Live At The Greek, and Awake Live -- is represented in this set. Indeed, it was his live performance at a Michael Buble concert that first roused my interest.

Also included in this new collection is a bonus CD with six songs from his Christmas album, Noël, which was the best-selling album in America in 2007.

All in all, there isn't much that doesn't count as a highlight. Funereal favorite "You Raise Me Up" is, naturally, outstanding, but "Per Te," "Alejate," and "Cinema Paradiso (Se)" are right up there as well, along with the aforementioned "Anthem." If there is one song guaranteed to make a grown man weak in the knees, though, then it's "Alla Luce Del Sole."

There are a couple of missteps, however, like "Weeping," wherein Groban sounds restrained in the presence of the gospel choir, as well as on his rendition of the Charlie Chaplin song, "Smile," which is just unsuited to his vocal style. Glitches aside, though, it's an exemplary collection.

Whether this release will give Groban's career a boost overseas is debatable. There's certainly a market for his style of music -- and he's probably the best currently around -- but it's a crowded field. His profile over here in the UK is arguably as high as it's ever been, coming off the back of appearances at the Classical Brit Awards, his Royal Albert Hall performances of Chess and Nelson Mandelas 90th Birthday concert; so if he's going to make it, then this will be the time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly Talented!, 14 Dec 2008
By Repro Girl (Nottingham) - See all my reviews
I first heard Groban sing on the Charlotte Church Show and thought 'that's what all the fuss is about in America' and made a mental note to look his work up. Unfortunately, I forgot all about it and was mentally jogged when I saw him, of all places, on Loose Women a couple of weeks ago. So, I looked him up on Amazon and couldn't believe the price! I thought there'd been a typo! Unbelieveable price, Well done Amazon! Downloaded straight away and didn't regret it. His voice is so smooth and soothing, it doesn't matter that I don't understand what he's singing half the time. Buy it, and see why he's sold 25million in the States!
