More quotes by Josh Groban
Don't try to be like me. Try to be like yourself. Try to be very good at being yourself.
Josh Groban
Fly me up to where you are beyond the distant star. I wish upon tonight to see you smile, if only for a while to know you're there. A breath away's not far to where you are.
Josh Groban
When I started in the music business, travel became a huge part of my world, where it hadn't been at all. I visited parts of the world that I'd never been to and found that I was spending maybe 30 days at home a year.
Josh Groban
If there is one thing that is constant in this world, it is the power of music.
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
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
The songs that I sing and the songs that I write have always just been what I feel my voice does well, and what my inspirations have been and a kind of culmination of everything.
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.
Josh Groban
Singing brings out in me what I can't normally bring out in everyday life. It's an incredible feeling to be able to bare your soul to people you've never met in a way that can make them understand so clearly what you mean. That's what I love most about singing ... it becomes my truest form of communication.
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
Music is what I always turn to when I'm feeling a certain way. It's my reason for everything.
Josh Groban
As a new artist there's always outside influences trying to tell you how to make a song better for radio and how to do your hair.
Josh Groban
When it comes to the acting stuff, I like to show up for a couple days and kind of be outrageous and silly, and go back to my day job.
Josh Groban
Let me fall. Let me climb. There's a moment where fear and dream must collide.
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
I have to work hard to not look like a nerd all the time. My friends are the only people I know that don't care about my image. I need to have people who treat me just as Josh, not as Josh the singer.
Josh Groban
When I feel confused or depressed, I remember back to junior high and I silently repeat, 'This, too, shall pass.'
Josh Groban
I try to have a real close connection with my fans. That's extremely important. They are the ones that have been there from the beginning and proved everyone else wrong.
Josh Groban
There is a certain... chivalry to the style of singing I normally do. Part of the fun for me will be to leave that at the door.
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.
