Okay, I'm laughing so hard I can barely type.
Assumming this is Ben Folds idea for a video, I was visualizing Josh dressed in a nasty/dirty slip with boots, writhing on a garbage strewn floor, spitting out choppy words and looking like last year's prostitute of the year. This was too hilarious even for me. lol Let's hope Ben sees Josh in a better light. Sorry about my opinion of this video. I never really listened that hard to the words, because the video was so distracting, even totally sad at the end. Bummer. I like music that makes me feel good at least somewhere in the song. Born to be wild. . . raised to be gentle!

This was deposited in another thread, but it mentions the new album in the last paragraph:
Josh Groban Wants Lil Wayne to Update His iPhone App Josh Groban has a few words for Lil Wayne: update your iPhone app! Groban attended Muhammad Ali's Celebrity Fight Night in Scottsdale, Arizona Saturday night. In addition to talking about his new production pairing with Rick Rubin, Groban was raving about his love of the Lil Wayne iPhone app--and how Weezy needs to update it. He says the "Be Like Lil Wayne" app is his "favorite thing." Groban says, "I have Lil Wayned everyone in my family including my dog. It's an app where you can take a picture of someone in your family and you can put wigs on them like Lil Wayne's hair...and you can basically bling them out completely." He actually blogs about it to fans on his blog that everyone should get the app because he's had a lot of fun with it and can't get enough. Groban says, "If he's listening, he needs to update it because I'm all out of rings and wigs!"
About his collaboration with legendary rock producer Rick Rubin, Groban says he was nervous just to meet
him for the first time. About what makes Rubin a top choice for artists to work with, Groban says, "He has the perfect combination of an eagle-eye
vision, but also giving you a really long leash and giving you the breadth to explore and to come up with things when they're right. So with that said,
it's been one of the most rewarding musical experiences I've ever had." The two plan to go into the studio together next week to begin
recording an album that should be released in five to six months.

The video isn't really meant to be played alone, it's actually apart of a series of music videos, that play out like a film. My aim was for people to pay attention to the string arrangement, so they could get a feel for what Ben is capable of.

JOSH IS INCREDIBLE SINGING PAUL SIMON'S OH JERUSALEM | ||
|
JOSH CHOSE TO SING "OH JERUSALEM" WHEN HE SANG AT PAUL SIMON'S BAM CONCERT LAST YEAR. HE DID AN INCREDIBLE JOB! I HOPE HE INCLUDES THIS SONG ON
HIS NEW ALBUM. IT'S NOT ON YOUTUBE ANYMORE. I HOPE YOU ALL GET TO HEAR IT; JOSH WAS SO POWERFUL AND AMAZING THAT NIGHT. HE ALSO SANG FOR THE FIRST TIME,
"BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS" WHICH HE HAS DONE WITH A FEW OTHER ARTISTS SINCE HE SANG IT WITH PAUL SIMON. I LOVE HIS RENDITION WITH BRIAN MCNIGHT
AT DAVID FOSTER'S TRIBUTE. JOSH REALLY SEEMS TO SING PAUL SIMON'S SONGS WITH A SPECIAL PRESENCE. HE HAS SO MUCH RESPECT FOR PAUL SIMON AND IT SHOWS
WHEN HE SINGS HIS SONGS.
JOSH IF YOU ARE READING THIS, PLEASE INCLUDE OH JERUSALEM ON THE NEW ALBUM. YOUR DEVOTED FAN, BETTY |

"And even though it felt warm and safe, I knew it had to end. It's never good to live in the past too long. As for the future, thanks to Dan, it
didn't seem so scary anymore, it could be whatever I want it to be. And whose to say this isn't what happens? Who can tell me that my fantasies
won't come true? Just... this... once." -JD [Scrubs]

I think that there are a lot of different ideas floating around, both by Josh and other people in his camp, I'm sure that Josh knows exactly what he wants
(and deserves) from his producer(s), band members and everyone involved in this CD. Whatever Josh comes out with, I'll be more than happy to listen to.
BE A FAN, RESPECT THE MAN!

Having never seen a photo of Hans Zimmer, I thought he was the guy with the glasses, but it's James Newton Howard. Hans Zimmer looks nothing like I
pictured him to be. I love the Gladiator Soundtrack.
I can't wait to hear what "different" sounds like.

From Josh's Twiitter... | ||
|
" This placid sleep now called upon, To cast the living veil away, A solace brought before the dawn, It surely will not last
the day."
Potential song lyrics perhaps? Or Josh just feeling in a particularly poetic mood? Whichever it is, it is achingly beautiful.
