More quotes by Josh Groban
I wanted to focus on songs that I was inspired by growing up. I love so many of them from the last 100 years, but I really wanted, for my first step forward, to choose material that has inspired me and got me into the world of musical theater.
Josh Groban
It wasn't that I got pinned against my locker, but I was intensely aware that the things I valued weren't shared by anyone. Girls didn't like me, and I had few friends.
Josh Groban
I've been fascinated by music for as long as I can remember. I was the kid on the playground in the third grade who would tell other kids about Paul Simon or Depeche Mode.
Josh Groban
After using four different languages on an album, it's tough to decide which one I'm gonna actually learn to speak. I always study the lyric, make sure I know what I'm singing, and try to get the pronunciation as perfect as possible.
Josh Groban
I'm the depresso guy on holidays.
Josh Groban
I think some industries are so far behind the rest of humanity, in the way they see characters and cast shows. Once those walls get broken down, it changes everything.
Josh Groban
Music is so 100 percent for me that the idea of giving that up in any way, shape, or form would be terrifying to me.
Josh Groban
It's really tough to make a name for yourself without compromising and without fitting yourself into a real specific mold. When I made the choice that I would be involved in every aspect of music and not necessarily make music for radio or MTV, I was saying, 'OK, this is me. You decide who it is.'
Josh Groban
Every day I lugged my backpack through the halls, waiting for the final bell. Then I'd race home and hole up in my room, playing the drums and the piano, composing music.
Josh Groban
Acting was definitely half of what I loved about storytelling and about theater. So, when I get a chance to do a cameo in a show or do a movie, it's a lot of fun and it's always great stepping outside of yourself and either playing a bizarro version of yourself or playing a character.
Josh Groban
I know that life is a journey I must accept and that pain and confusion are temporary. I know that if I follow my heart, it will lead me where I belong.
Josh Groban
My feeling is, Twitter's free. If people want to have a political discourse with me on Twitter, and they disagree with me, I've got all the time in the world for that. It's when it gets nasty that I have problems.
Josh Groban
I get terrible butterflies. Before I go onstage, I'll have to freak out for five minutes. I scream. It seems to help!
Josh Groban
There's no half-singing in the shower, you're either a rock star or an opera diva.
Josh Groban
No matter what your age and no matter where you come from, everyone can change the world in some way, whether it's being a mentor to someone younger than you or someone that doesn't have as much experience as you. If you're passionate enough, you can do whatever you want and definitely change the world.
Josh Groban
No matter who we are, no matter what our circumstances, our feelings and emotions are universal.

Grobanite makes me think of a type of harmless crustacean.
Josh Groban
When you're walking in, basically like a kid a candy store, to a project where there's an endless canon of material, you have to step back from it as a self-indulgence. You have to look at it neutrally.
Josh Groban
Even with our differences There is a place we're all connected Each of us can find each other's light, There's so much to be thankful for.
Josh Groban
I still like to keep all the love songs for the Grobanites, I like to make sure that they know those are just for them.
