It's nice to hear him sing it all on the right notes.  He seems to have problems with that when he's live. I wish he'd get over that.  Too bad my speakers are acting up, because they're wrecking the sound quality.  |

It's funny, Kim. When I saw him live, front row, he sang accurately, but when I see him perform live on TV appearences, he always goes flat in places. :/ Maybe he really isn't that comfortable with his falsetto that he is using so often these days?

The front cover to his album is horrible. :/

I don't like it, either. But on his facebook he's saying it looks darker on his website than it really looks. I don't know if it'll be light enough to make that much difference, though. I don't like scarfs on guys, either, unless they need them. |

Only 3 songs not in English this time. The fewest ever, I think. One in Italian, one in French, and one in Portuguese. Last album he had 5, if you include the bonus track, Verita. And this is the first one he's ever made with no song in Spanish, as far as I can tell. When's Hayley going to sing in French? She really ought to. :wink:

You can listen to his new Portuguese song "Voce Existe Em Mim" here: soundcloud.com/joshgroban/voce-existe-em-mimIt is now available for download on Itunes, although some fans in certain countries have not been able to access it. I for one will just listen on this website for now, and wait for the entire album to be released. Two other songs will be available for download in the near future. Those are Higher Window and L'Ora Dell'Addio. |

Josh's new song "Higher Window" is now available to listen and download at Itunes! This is a really nice one, I think I might like it a little more than Hidden Away. Not quite as many falsetto notes, and maybe because my sister plays the other one too much. But the tune is really good, too. Listen Here: soundcloud.com/joshgroban/higher-window |

Got tickets to see Josh in three weeks! The box office opened at midnight and the gig was sold out in seconds! A Grobanite (Angel) sent me to an obscure retailer, and I got hold of a couple of tickets there. Phew!

I'm guessing he'll be back in London for his main tour, though. But I'm glad you did get tickets after all!  |

I thought that too, Libby. But Union Chapel is such an intimate venue that I wanted to go to this too. |

I know, I'd be desperate to go too, if he was doing one in Seattle. The closest one is in CA though. Too short notice, anyway.
