Groban- Oceano

A few posts back I was discussing Josh Groban's new genre of music. He sings in Italian for many of his songs, but then has a modern style to his singing. This song, Oceano, is an example of that.



As you just saw, not only did the music have a modern feel, but the set, the lighting, and everything else had a modern feel. The only thing that seemed slightly classical was his technique, which makes the song that much better. He uses correct technique to sing. He has a great tone that you could listen to all day, and his vibrato is the cherry on top of it all. Also, Josh Groban is young and has a audience that is skewed to a more young audience. Thus, the kids and young adults can still have fun and be in the presence of great, healthy singing, instead of having to listen to a musical soundtrack or opera to hear the more classical voices. Don't get me wrong, I love other types of singing, and I'm not saying that voices other than classical voices are wrong. All I am saying is that it's a good thing for young people to hear the ligit voice once and awhile. The ligit voice in my opinion is very beautiful, but the music that often accompanies it is often boring. Josh Groban and his music is not boring at all, which is why I enjoy listening to his music.
