Josh Groban Awake was released in 2006. It was Groban's third album and is a follow-up to his album Closer. It is the third highest selling classical album of the 2000s. Songs are in English, Italian and Spanish.
The song I most enjoy is "Un giorno per noi." This is a "Time for Us" from Romeo and Juliet. It is very beautiful. The song "You are Loved" was made into a single. The songs "Lullaby" and "Weeping" have a South African flavor and are recorded with Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
I enjoy Groban's voice. It is very evident that he works at shaping his words and tones. Some songs he was singing very high. It makes for an enjoyable album. With Josh Groban you don't have to understand the words to enjoy the music. This album also makes good use of orchestral music.
