Been listening to the sophomore studio albums of Josh Groban and Michael Buble the past few days. David Foster ought to be real proud of his boys. Their self-titled debut albums were great, and their follow-up albums don't disappoint.
They are basically targeting the same crossover market - classical for Josh Groban, jazz/swing for Michael Buble. Josh Groban puts more passion into his singing, while Michael Buble is the consummate crooner. In Closer, Josh Groban sings a good collection of English, French, Italian, and Spanish songs - from the standard Caruso to theme songs such as Mi Mancherai (Il Postino) and Broken Vow (Meteor Garden II) to MJ's She's Out of My Life. In It's Time, Michael Buble sticks to his standard formula of revivals and remakes. Not to missed are You Don't Know Me (from My Best Friend's Wedding) and Quando, Quando, Quando (duet with Nelly Furtado).
