Track-By-Track

Alla Luce del Sole

Mystery, anticipation, reveal. This song really is amazing. Even if you don’t understand Italian, you can appreciate the feel of this. The chills will run up your arms with every chorus.

Gira con Me

For those who like to pretend you know every word, I’m with you. A great chill tune that still has a great flourishing chorus and great orchestration.

You’re Still You

A great message. If you’ve been through a difficult time, or are currently going through one, this is just... awesome.

Cinema Paradiso (Se)

Excellent execution, but I can’t say much about the song, itself. Not a fan of the melody or the background.

To Where You Are

For those who have lost someone close to them. Josh doesn’t just sing this emotional tune, he creates the associated feelings.

Aléjate

Again, great execution, poor composition. Not a fan.

Canto Alla Vita (feat. The Corrs)

The Italian/English mashup is fun. The Corrs bring a lot to this song. Considering it was already a goosebump-inducing melody, that’s saying something!

Let Me Fall -from Cirque du Soleil

A melody that can only be described as “interesting”. Not bad, but not something that really captures attention.

Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)

A nice, chill track. Grab a cup of your favorite hot drink, and melt into your couch and blanket.

Un Amore per Sempre 

Still got that drink? This song is a great follow-up to the previous one. The ebb and flow of this is great. Then you get to that part. You know which one. It’s almost like two songs in one.

Home to Stay

I think the backtrack on this is underrated. It’s simple, for the most part, yet it brings the lyrics together. 

Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring (feat. Lili Haydn)

Most people will recognize the main melody. A favorite of many.

The Prayer (with Charlotte Church)

Remember when this would play every five minutes on the radio? And how, after a month, everyone was begging it to stop? Well, it’s been a few years with it played only periodically. It might be safe to listen to, now. Take it slow. Baby steps.

Recommended?

An incredible debut for Mr. Groban that was hard to follow. 100% worth your time.
