JOSH GROBAN, A Collection Album

I'm happy to have a copy of this brand new album from Josh Groban which I bought from Amazon UK. The package contains a double CD showcasing his most unforgettable songs from his recent albums on Disc 1, and a bonus CD of his version of some famous Christmas songs such as Silent Night, Little Drummer Boy and other songs on Disc 2.

I admire the amazing voice of Josh. It truly stands above all others. I started listening to his music when I see him on an MTV singing the song "Broken Vow". I did not think that a young man like Josh is the voice behind this song. Then I started following his music and love hearing them every time. His deeply inspiring powerful rare voice is really a striking melody for the soul. Soothing to the ear and heart-warming music. I also have his "Josh Groban Live in Concert" video which is one of the PBS Great performances and I always love watching it nearly hundred times.

Josh Groban: A Collection contains 16 of his greatest hits from Closer, Awake, and Josh's self titled album. I like the orange-themed album design. The inlay cover contains credits of the songs and his finest photographs on each page. Lyrics were not included in the package but are available on his website, joshgroban.com.

Most of the music that I listen to are more on rock, alternative song mostly played by band. But after discovering the music of Josh Groban, I must say that I was captivated by his great voice. I don't have all his album that's why I did pick this collection and no regret...I always love listening to this CD.

Cost: £6.24 (quoted from amazon.co.uk)

Summary: great music
