Hey

Hello from Portugal :)

I'm Cristina, I'm a big fan of you. Thank you. I have been following your career since I know who I am. You have been an inspiration to me. Your voice is absolutly superb and delicious.
Everytime that I need to make a choice or a decision, I listen to your songs, and they have been really helpful. Once again, thank you.

Good luck, and take care.

Hi Josh
Hello from Canada....Just wanted to tell you, I am a big fan...I sing most of your songs because they are just so beautiful and they touch the very heart of me. You are my one of my secret imaginary GURUs (besides Andreas Boccelli and Michael Buble) and when I become a great singer, I want you to know that for all the time that I know you, YOU are the inspiration and the reason why I sing and whenever I am really in doubt, all I have to do is play your CD (my fav is CLOSER) and hear you sing and I am back to being happy.. I love you and you made me cry when I heard "Mi Mancherai" and "To where you are" for the first time...all the best for your new album and the very best in your life...when I meet you I promise I will sing PER TE for you...It will be my honor and dream come true.(yes, there is a big of man-crush on you...can't help me ha ha ) God bless.. Tom

I'll Loom in a Zion
Absolutely not...The CD is not a revelation...It only predicted the war at home and the need for people to follow the way of Josh Groban out of darkness...Like spiderman on twitter!

SOMETIMES I JUST WRITE TOO FAST! SORRY!

WOULDN'T HAVE EXPECTED ANYTHING LESS! FABULOUS WORK. YA' DONE GOOD! PROUD OF YOU. THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR INNER SELF! RECEIVED IT FOR CHRISTMAS. BEST PRESENT I EVER RECEIVED! BLESS YOU AND HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY! KEEPUM' COMIN'!

:)

Big thanks... Sanja :)

P.S. You are the best singer in whole world!

Higher Window is the greatest song ever written, recorded and sung by the greatest performer of all time.....Josh Groban.....love you and your music more than you can ever imagine....Cant wait for the tour.... HAPPY THANKSGIVING Josh and family .... so much to be thankful for......xoxo

Finally is right!!!! spectacular ! well worth the wait... can't help being repetitive... Co. party 2 night... have Hidden away and Higher Window on the play list... ( I planned it, so I can have KC spin these... might squeeze in more!) Gotta educate these folks with who you are ... lot of these are kids in their early 20's.. perfect for their indoctrination of JG awareness!

Illuminations is absolutely breathtaking! I don't know any other way to express that addictive draw to the entire thing. it has only been three days since its arrival on my doorstep and every day i have fallen in love with a different song. it has been worth every moment of impatient craving of a new cd and i cannot wait to see what you do on tour. thank you so incredibly much for writing so much of the music yourself. in your previous albums its been funny to notice that my ears favorites were the ones you penned, and now there are so many songs on Illuminations by you. I know how much work and time and tears it takes to create art and it is such a blessing to hear the world from your point of view. I am absolutely awestruck. (and so is my five year old brother who watched GMA with me. you now have an additional childs vote in driving and dinner cooking choices). and now the album is out, and hopefully that means breathing time although it usually doesn't. take a deep breath and drink a cup of tea. we love you and cannot wait to see you on tour =) <3

Your new CD is simply beautiful. The only thing is that you didn't record any song in Spanish :-(
I hope that you add one in your tour because I am waiting to see you here in Montreal.

wow....... 3 years have past without a new album at Christmas... but this year all that changes... thanks to your amazing voice and soul... <3 thank you, you are truly my hero...! xxxxxx

I have been playing Illuminations over and over. I think what I will remember from winter this year is zipping up my coat and increasing the volume on these songs while I set out across central park on walk to work. Bells of New York City is beautiful. I grew up in LA, I love LA, but the silent snow filled streets and not so silent bells of this city call me to stay too.

Really into Higher Window, Hidden Away. Although I think If I Walk Away has to be my favorite. those words lead me to prayer every time. Beautiful album all around, I've been telling everyone how great it is!

Youuuuuuuu are just amazingggg!

First off, I need to say that this is the first album to come out since I've been a fan and I'm very excited. I've already heard the album on Facebook and I love it. Coming from another musician, this album is the best I've ever heard, and it sets a standard for me. Thank you Josh for being a role model! :D

I pre-ordered your deluxe CD/DVD 11/02/10! I received the pkg. 11/15/10. Absolutely fabulous!! My favorites are 'Você Existe Em Mim' and 'Hidden Away'. I only speak English, but your musical talents transcend any language barrier. Love you, Hope you come tour in South Florida in the near future!

Just bought your new CD today and I love it :)

Well Josh, all I can say is...thank YOU for your time, talent, dedication and deliberation on an album that goes above and beyond expectation. I haven't been able to purchase the CD YET (I get paid later in the week but I already stalked Barnes & Noble to ensure they had enough copies...), but I have been able to listen to it on your site. The music, the lyrics, the orchestrations and arrangements paint such a beautiful, personal picture of thoughts and feelings that most of us have experienced at one time or another, which makes the music that much easier to appreciate. You SHOULD be receiving some recognition for your talent and your work. You have done a great thing here! I appreciate the fact that you have stayed true to your art form and haven't compromised or sold out as many artists do. You are an inspiration...again, thank you.

MY DEAR JOSHUA, MY GOOD FRIEND;
I'M VERY PROUD OF YOUR WONDERFUL NEW ALBUM,
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ARTWORK BY YOURSELF, FROM YOUR HEART AND SOUL!
ALL THE FORCE AND GOD BLESS YOU!
LOVE AND SHINES, ALWAYS!

Hey Josh, Looking forward to getting the new cd here in South Africa soon. Will pop in to the Music Stores over the weekend. If it is anything like the lead single, then whoop! whoop! it will be ayoba!

Greetings from down South and best of luck with the promo's etc,

PS: enjoy da ride!!!
Gotta start playing Noël soon, festive times

Hi Josh,

My special CD arrived today and I am enjoying the fantastic sound. No words my friend, except it's "BRILLIANT". I feel so much emotion in your voice, your music, and it brings me to a place within myself that is so full of love. Thank you dearly for expanding your loving self to the world.

I'm touched by the beauty of your "HEART" Josh! I love the CD, a true MASTERPIECE!!!

See you in Denver.
Love and LIGHT,
Andi

Should you be in your pajamas? I LOVE YOU!!!!

Haunting.. Blissful.. Remarkable.. Emotional.. Other-worldly.. Perfection.. Enlightening.. Intoxicating. These words do not begin to do justice to the experience that is this album. To call this music seems trite and inadequate. Thank you for sharing this gift which transcends this mortal plane. Thank you for unintentionally peeling away layers within me to reveal a hidden core I had never known. And congratulations for achieving the impossible feat of topping yourself yet again.

Josh - I hope you are celebrating ... well if you are awake. Your performance on GMA was fabulous. Am I ever going to get through just one of your songs without crying? Gosh. The video clip from New Haven with little Gavin was so special. You are such a sweet man. Chocolate milk and a sandwich.................

When I am having a horrible day, you make everything better. Thanks.

Love, Kate

It's true! THANK YOU JOSH FOR THE HEADS UP! I went into a local store and the clerk said the release date is tomorrow. I said "No, it's today, Josh himself told me!" The clerk was like "Really?" I told him to check the box behind the counter and he assured me it wouldn't be in there. I assured him it WOULD BE! He started digging and sure enough was suprised......hmmmmm.....I told him "I wouldn't lie about these things!!!" Then he said I wouldn't be able to purchase it if it wasn't in "the system".....WHATEVER!!!! Anyway, they scanned through just fine and I'm home tucked away with my Illuminations CD :) LIFE IS GOOD! LOVE YOU JOSH!

Wow, listening to this you kinda don't sound too excited!!! I think you are exhausted and I don't blame you. I haven't gotten through the whole album yet because I don't want to rush the experience. Considering you only release one every 5 years (:() this one must last quite a long time LOL You have such great taste in music I just know each one will be better than the last and so on..I think you've got much to give but don't delay the process of MORE!! Really!! Thanks Josh for being so considerate to all of us Grobanites out in the general public. I will once again join your club but wasn't really happy with my last tickets considering my fat finger was on the enter key when they went onsale. We love you buddy and I will be once again on the floor watching you perform your ass off!! Bravo!! Glenn the Grobanite dude!

Hi Josh!
Nice blog. It's so nice of you to keep in touch with us. Your new album is fantastic. I've enjoyed it so much. And I'll say it again, I loved the show in New Haven! I hope you keep Connecticut in mind for the big tour. And you, my good man, get a big gold star as well! Bravo!
~Lisa~
