Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: There are worse things in life for than making your acting debut on the much ballyhooed season finale of Ally McBeal, though teen operatic baritone Josh Groban doesn't seem destined to encounter them anytime soon. As the awkward high school student-client who asks the typically romance-jinxed Ally to his senior prom, Groban performed this debut album's "You're Still You" (adapted from film-composing legend Ennio Morricone's Academy Award-nominated score for Malèna, with lyrics by Linda Thompson) as a heart-tugging, literal showstopper. The young star was just 17 when veteran producer-writer David Foster tapped him to fill in for Andrea Bocelli at rehearsals for the 1999 Grammys, where Groban found himself suddenly dueting with Celine Dion. If this collection tends to hew sometimes uncomfortably close to Foster's own MOR sonic instincts, the material offers enough challenges to display Groban's talent and the potential of his warm, mature voice: a lyrical take on another Morricone classic, "Cinema Paradiso"; melancholy readings of Don McLean's "Starry, Starry Night" and Albert Hammond's "Alejate"; masterfully dramatic takes of the Neapolitan "Alla Luca Del Sole" and "Canto Alla Vita," the latter featuring the Corrs. Many of Groban's performances here, including a neo prog-rock-opera take on Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" (with Lili Haydn), seem both bigger and bolder than their precious musical frameworks, a telling hint that Grand Opera can't be far from his grasp. As said earlier, there are worse things in life.--Jerry McCulley Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Simply the BestIf you're a Josh Groban fan you will love it, if you'r new to Josh Groban you're in for a treat. 'You're still you' and 'to where you are' move me to tears every time I listen to them. I could listen to his voice all day (and usually do). Rating:  - Retch..My, how the guy's voice grates with sickly sweetness, a bleating vibrato and, quite often, slightly-off tuning - all frighteningly reminiscent of Chris de Burgh. Rating: - Great listeningDVD great viewing and CD great listening, especially if you wake up in the middle of the night and have trouble getting back off to sleep, but same can be said of Eros Ramozatti,Andrea Bocelli and Laura Pausini. All great listening and viewing. We cannot get enough of them. Rating: - it works for me!this cd as surpassed all my expectations (and they were high after reading the reviews) what a beautiful beautiful voice this man has,the first song my mouth was agape, and by the third song in i had left this planet and was floating in heaven and didnt return until the cd had finished,his voice will move you to tears and give you goosebumps,i can honestly say i have never heard a more beautiful male baritone in my life, its natural deep rich and lush to the extreme,its just beautiful..buy it and see if it works for you too:) Rating: - SENSATIONAL - Do not miss outFirst saw Josh on Ally Mcbeal singing "You're Still You" (don't let this put you off if your not a fan of the TV show) ... I was stunned but had no idea who he was. I was off ill recently and caught him on a 2nd episode singing "To Where You Are" which left me in tears and this time I had to find out if I could get hold of his music. Some of the songs are not in English but this is nothing to worry about ... they are just as moving and just as addictive. Alejate is just amazing ... makes me want to learn Spanish!! If you are at all undecided then I recommend you take the plunge ... you won't be sorry ... and if you don't find at least one song on this CD that moves you to tears I will be surprised. Stuff ...
