1. Josh Groban Cd Bridges

12 Songs, 49 Minutes

EDITORS’ NOTES

He’s a pop singer, Broadway thespian, and sitcom star. With Bridges, Josh Groban confirms his musical ambassador status. It feels like his eighth studio album was intended to invite the whole world in during divisive times. The opening trio of songs are pure Groban—a reassuring pick-me-up, a heartfelt love letter to someone far away, and a moment of reflection. Then Bridges really starts to cook. He shows his versatility and facility with other languages on the delightful French and Spanish songs “Musica del Corazon” and “S’il suffisait d’aimer.” The cultural exchange continues with country star Jennifer Nettles joining Groban on the pretty ballad “99 Years.” His Canadian sister-from-another-mister Sarah McLachlan drops in for a breath-stealing duet, “Run.” And just when you think your heart is about to burst, Andrea Bocelli appears for a mic-dropping collaboration, “We Will Meet Once Again.” Groban does it all with genuine charm and sophistication.

Josh Groban Cd Bridges

The title Bridges could be seen as Josh Groban's allusion to how the singer spends his seventh studio album bringing different cultures and demographics together. Groban does this so smoothly, it may take a moment to realize how much ground he covers here. Certainly, his choice of duet partners signals the different audiences he's targeting: Vicente Amigo, Sarah McLachlan, Andrea Bocelli, and Jennifer Nettles are all here, covering everything from country to classical. The same sensibility extends throughout the album, with Groban singing a French song from Celine Dion and MOR standards by Paul Simon and Billy Joel (the latter appears only on the deluxe edition). Tying it together are newly written soft rock numbers which help pull the album into perspective. Despite this surface flair, Bridges is another expert adult contemporary record that not only picks up on the threads of Stages, but refines it so thoroughly, it never seems as if Groban spent any time singing music that wasn't soft rock.
