Has anyone else checked out Josh Groban's new CD, Awake?
It was playing in Barnes & Noble the last time I was there, and I fell in love instantly. I headed straight to the music section and bought it
My favorite song would definitely be "You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)", but all the songs are amazing.

OHHH my goodness!
This is absolutely one of my FAVOURITE albums EVER. I have all of Josh's CDs, but this one has to be my favourite of his. There's just something so beautiful about it. A... different beautiful than his previous work.
It's been out for a while, but I remember the first time I heard "You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)" I ran out and bought it the first chance I got. That song is probably my favourite too! It's just so heart-warming and hope-giving. I listen to it every time I feel down. XD Works every time.
"Now Or Never", "So She Dances", "In Her Eyes" and "February Song" are also among my favourites.
*SQUEEE* I just love Josh! *SQUEEE*

I love this album. I really like his other albums too, but this is probably my favorite.
February Song would have to be my favorite; not only on this album, but out of everything I've ever heard him do. I also am very attached to You Are Loved (Don't Give Up). That one is so inspiring!
Apparently he released a special edition version of this CD, which had another track or two on it, including the actual song Awake that he did. I managed to find it on YouTube, and it's beautiful too; I wish it had been on the normal version of the album.

Aw, my dear Josh's album.
It's a treasure, it really is! I bought the special internet edition, and it inclues the two bonus tracks Verita and Awake, as well as one exclusively on the internet edition, Smile. And a behind-the-scenes look at the making of, the photoshoot, and the video shoot.
I love "Awake" the most, but every single track is just...

Thanks for the heads up Taurquende! Somehow I missed these songs! And they are all awesome!
Here are some links if any other Groban fans are as out of touch as I am (not likely!) and would like to take a look (esp the translation of Verita):

Ooh, I will definitely have to check out those other "special" songs then! Thanks for the links Sinbearer [I can't check them out now, though, because I'm at school and I think youtube is blocked ]
I'm glad to hear there are others out there who love this album (although I was sure there was... )!

Awww, that's too bad that you don't get to listen to them right away. They're really good!
XD I do actually have the Special Edition. But the funny thing is, when I bought it, I didn't realize it was the Special Edition until I brought it home. XD Ha ha ha ha! Way to go, me! But what a LOVERLY surprise! Especially the behind-the-scenes stuff that Taur mentioned. Ha ha ha ha ha! Now I want to go watch it!
Hurray for Josh!

I got it last month, it's just awesome! Josh is such a great singer. "February song" is probably my favourite from this album.
Thanks for the links, Sinbearer! I didn't know the songs before.
And yes, he has hot hair.

My favorite songs are So She Dances, Machine, and February Song.
Machine is probably the best song of his...my opinion

I haven't heard all the songs on this cd, but I have heard some. I really really like 'February Song', 'Un Giorno per Noi', and 'You are Loved'. I haven't got around to buying it yet, but I want to! [and oooo yes, I love the Italian ones! they're just... ]
