Você Existe Em Mim... since 2002!!!
It was love at first sight/hearing for sure!!! ;) This new music with Carlinhos Brown sounds really beautiful to me - I'm dying here imagining you singing it live in Rio!!! Again: DYING!!! So, to avoid having my death in your consciousness, COME HERE SOON!!!!! :D Beside avoiding my death, you can learn more portuguese. Remember that I used to post that I could teach you? I'm still available. I've been extremely busy lately, but for you, I find time - always!!! Your portuguese sounds amazing... you probably had a very good teacher... but, having classes with me, your portuguese will sound WONDERFULLY PERFECT!!! Yeap, I'm still very modest ;) lol!
Love you!!! Love you!!! Love you!!!
Million kisses and warm hugs from Rio!!!

I only just noticed
All the great comments they are making while preparing the track percussion.
"So beautiful" "Way too beautiful" "What a sound"
Ha, amazing that I can understand it all xP
(btw he has a nice accent, portuguese is not an easy language to grasp, even if he can't speak it, he sings it really well, it's a language that does not have an easy pronunciation)
So nice
So nice to see so many women playing the drums. Always been a dream of mine. Congratulations on your creative new song, I bet it is going to be amazing. Sounds wonderful already. Take Care.
Your Friend,
J
I still cannot believe how
I still cannot believe how wonderfull it is to listen to someone we really admire sing in our language.

I am in love with this
I am in love with this track.It is worth the eternity,You spread your wings in way that had me at HELLO. I know U heard that before,This is what makes my heart home again,Gives me a reason to dream the DREAM. Fill my void to paint again. A page of life had just turn away. With every sound , and simple stroke that makes its' mark.A empty canves brings a blom of hopes, moments worth the simplest silence times.
A choice I choose , a life I live , a person that I am a dreams that I have.....
J..
estupendo!
I've been a fan since you were on Ally Macbeal. Your voice makes me melt. Luckily for me I was married when I first saw you or I may have become a pathetic groupie to you or Joshua Bell. (as I'm a violist) I've seen him perform live now I need to see you. Joshua Bell does a fine Yankee Doodle dandy. New tour dates on the horizon???
Você existe em mim...
Hello Josh,
I am very happy in writing for you...
When will you come to Brazil?
That music is wonderful.
It will be a great success, it can believe!
Now a message in Portuguese:
Obrigada por ser tão maravilhoso...
Obrigada por estar sempre comigo...
Obrigada por existir em mim!
Eu te amo muito,
Beijos brasileiros, com carinho, pra você.
Souls
I woke up early this morning and wrote this. I felt like I needed to say this you you all. Thanks.
Isn’t there something we’re missing? We live in a world of contrast. Love and hate, good and evil, beauty and filth, rich and poor. People say they are searching for truth. I have been asking God to show me the truth about my life. I have shared with you all earlier about how God rescued me from a horribly abusive situation. I lived with my mother who pretended to be a Christian. She was actually a witch. A wolf in sheep’s clothing. She worshiped Satan. This is true. And trust me, there was nothing glamorous, nice, or exciting about it. She tortured and abused all of my siblings. There is nothing cool about witches. Their sole purpose in life is to create problems on this earth. They sell their souls to the devil and go to work trying to hurt people on earth and turn them away from God. Everyone blames God when bad things happen. It’s funny that they don’t ever think to blame the source: Satan. Oh, and if anyone is saying that this is getting creepy right now please pause a moment and think. Two of the most popular films series right now are Harry Potter and Twilight. In a law of court the judge would say that the prosecution opened the door for the defense by bringing up the subject. As far as I can tell I have a perfect right to speak against this evil because right now it’s passing as entertainment. It has been mine and billions of people’s torment.
When we look at a picture of a starving child something in us hurts and moves us to give what we have to help that child. Our hearts ache. Satan laughs. The witches rejoice. There is nothing cool about Satan.
God’s heart is aching. He made a beautiful earth. He offers us true life, love and a relationship with Him through His son Jesus Christ. In return for His freely given love, we give Him a cold shoulder or pretend He doesn’t exist. Just because someone pretends that God doesn’t exist doesn’t mean He doesn’t. Everyone will stand before Him. Even Satan. Even Satan knows God exists. If right now anyone is thinking that they don’t believe in Satan then I ask you to please explain why there is so much evil in this world. It doesn’t come from God. God is love, light and truth. Satan is darkness and lies.
I know many people who sold their souls to the devil for some kind of gain. I can tell you first hand that their lives were miserable. Satan has everyone bound in chains. His promises are empty because he is a liar. Jesus is the only one who can set people free. One of the biggest lies that Satan tries to get us to believe is that we are the center of the universe. That is a lie. God is the center of the universe. You are not God. There is only one true and living God, the maker of heaven and earth.
My heart is aches every day. I look at the world and I see the sadness and heartache of people. God is the only answer. He’s waiting for us to reach out to Him. He is right there next to you, holding out His arms to you. If anyone is really seeking truth or good, the only answer is a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
One thing that has really bothered me is that when I watch the news or talk shows people bring up issues like war, violence, incest, the occult, abuse, drug, etc. Then they leave you in the pile of crap they just dug up. They offer no answers. How is that hope? I am offering you an answer. A relationship with God. If you like name dropping what better name in all the earth than Jesus Christ. He was the Son of God. Yet He came to earth in the most humble form. His life perfectly examples obedience to God. He chose to die for us. He chose to die for people who were cursing and spitting on Him. He did this out of true love. His resurrection reconciled us to God. Satan is trying to pull us away from God. He will do anything to drag you to hell. That’s how cool he is.
It’s early Sunday morning. I’m going to church today to worship the Creator of the universe. I do hope some of you join me soon. I would like to thank you all for letting me share my heart with you. I am sincerely writing this out of love. I really lie awake at night and worry about you. Life is short. Eternity is a long time. I want all of you to be spending eternity with me in God’s presence where sorrow and sighing will flee.
Thank you all again and God bless you,
Erika
P.S. Josh, I know you struggle because you truly have a heart of love and yet you cringe when people call you an angel. I think I can clarify this for people. Josh is not an angel. He is a human man who has a heart that wants to share the love it has. Josh gives us love. All love comes from God. We are all imperfect people. Josh doesn’t need to be put on a pedestal or treated like he is an angel. He is a human just like you and I. Josh you are a beautiful man because you love. Here is what Satan is trying to do to you. He is trying to get you so annoyed with the fact that people call you an angel that you do something really horrible to prove that you’re not. Josh, you really help people. Satan hates you for that. You have God’s love pouring through you. That is so rare in the entertainment industry right now. Please, don’t give up Josh. I know that especially now as you are making this new album you are struggling with the “image” of Josh Groban -what, on the surface, people think you are. Please hold fast to who you truly are. You have nothing to prove. You are the amazing, complex and beautiful man God made you. I love you very much, God bless you.
Thank You Erika
I wanted to tell you thank you for writing this to Josh. My prayer is that it opens his eyes and heart to the fact that his life will be so much fuller and meaningful when he allows Jesus to come into his heart and life. I have been so worried for him, since I became a fan, that he would be swayed by the world that he functions in and will decide that what they claim is the truth and not be open to the fact that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. May our Lord richly bless you for caring so much about Josh and his family.
Love in our Lord,
Marni
Proud of you!
Hi Josh!
So proud of you!
Tried to stay away from your site for a while but you know I'm addicted. :)
So I really need to know where to go to translate the lyrics once they're available. I'm so curious to know what they say.
Your voice sounds amazing amidst the percussion! Hypnotic!
Was moving, to say the least. Keep up the good work.
Have an amazing weekend,
Skip
new song

Hearing your music is like having drugs: the more we take the more we want!
There is always one melody we can pick up for every and each moment of our lives and they can make us laugh, cry, dance or just give us that peace of mind that we need sometimes.
You never stop surprising.

Susan

VOCÊ JÁ EXISTE EM NÓS HÁ MUITO TEMPO...
Frankly, I was very happy with the breath of music sung in Portuguese by Josh. I can not imagine what I feel to hear him sing in my native language, will be an overflowing emotion ..
Any small your attention is already the most, even all the affection he has shown for us, your brazilian fans.
All this love must be reciprocated. Therefore, now, its promise and COME TO BRAZIL. We are waiting for a long time.
Do not worry, all this love:) will be rewarded here
Kisses from Brazil...

Peace out,
Andi =^..^=
"Music is what emotions sound like."
Amazing percussion track!!!

Big hugs from Spain.

Come to Brazil!! AXÈ!!
Josh is now a special day for me, I do not tinker much with the net, now I am learning to communicate with you, and I'm also studying English so that you get me, haha! Its incredible music with Carlinhos Brown and Banda Didá only brings even more in hopes that you will come to Brazil soon, this is our greatest desire. Now we know that you are with Brazil and all of us fans in your mind and your heart, we love you a long time. Come to Brazil and Sao Paulo, we want you in Latin America greatly. Very AXÉ for you!
Hmmmm
I couldn't even hear Josh. I know my ear phones are bad, but I just didn't get it.
Reply to Hmmmm
Josh was showing us how separate tracks are laid down in a studio,ie. vocal tracks, percussion/drum tracks. His vocal track was already laid down and being played in the background while Carlinhos and Banda were figuring out where they wanted to put the different types of percussion to accompany Josh's vocal track on the recording, and they were doing some mixing of those sounds with computers and the mixing board. Only part of Josh's vocal track was played in this video so that is why you didn't hear his voice through the whole thing. The rest of the video that showed the people on drums, was just showing us how the drum tracks were laid down. Those people were listening to Josh's vocals on their headsets and there was a conductor there letting them know when to hit the drums to coordinate them with his vocals. I hope my explanation was of some help to you. :-)
Josh - You are inconceivable.
