Thank you. I wish this version of The Prayer was at its full length.
Josh, Goodman, and Céline Dion CD
17 years old. Now he is 42. Time flies
His dad recorded the whole thing…..I’m sure he was just as nervous and excited for his amazingly talented son🥰
I was hoping that the full version of the song would be available to listen to.
His voice is something out of this world.
That's the _exact_ moment, when he hits that high note at 3:00, that he made a name for himself
What a story! What a great break for Josh. I am in such awe of Celine. To listen to Celine and Josh together is a gift to the senses. ❤
I was introduced to Josh in 2004 in the 4th grade when the teacher would occasionally play his CD. Idk where the name came from, but we all called him "Hoggie Booboo". My family had no clue who I was talking about until my brother played one of his songs and I educated them who hoggie is! I loved his music. Sophomore year of highschool my best friend and I saw him in concert in Denver and, all I can say is we were the only kids there among a sea of grey haired women wearing "I ❤️Josh" shirts. It was a phenomenal concert. I actually have him to thank for me joining choir. I used to sing in the shower, but the neighbors and police put a stop to that. I'm not a Josh i guess. Lol!
Going toe to toe with Celine Dion right off the bat!!! Whew!
Could you imagine the pressure? 17 years old asked to sing to replace Andrea Bocelli and accompanying Celine Dion and all as a personal favor to David Foster.
What a phenomenal unexpected experience! I saw Josh w my mom and her friend in Pittsburgh. Amazing ! Cannot believe that teen is in his 40s now ! Incredible voice !
Amazing Josh and Celine
David Foster is such a great discoverer of talent
My father introduced me to Celine Dion , I learned everything I could about a human who could sing like this…it taught me things about my father he would never speak. Just beautiful ❤ OMG, there isn't a song that Celine sings that doesn't give me goosebumps. I love her sooo much !!!!
He’s my favorite male singer, man he’s so talented
Me too
He's not an Andrea Bocelli, but he's right up there with him. WOW, what a star.
I would have loved to be a fly on the wall then. And would love to see the full rehearsal from start to finish.
Two amazing voices
Beautiful! Celine has a heart worth more than gold. At 17
y/o to receive such a cold call to perform....as a stand-in...for the Grammy's......with Celine Dion.... What a Pray... for him, Celine and all the world to hear 2 beautiful voices as gifts!
Thank you!❤
Amazing... It makes me cry ohhh
so heartwarming and amazing! Goosebumps
They almost didn’t let him into the theater…
Josh Groban has a better voice than Andrea Bocelli in my opinion.
Incredible
Wow

Luckily, David Foster kept insisting that he was right about Josh Groban.
Remember the writers! Carol Bayer sayers…
David knows talent.

Here you are: ruclips.net/video/D2KKDewXvJE/видео.html
What is the song you used for your outro?
Here you are: ruclips.net/video/D2KKDewXvJE/видео.html
Wait…so did Josh sing it when the Grammys actually happened or was it only during rehearsal? 😮
Only for the rehearsals.
It's so funny to think that such a beautiful song as "The Prayer" comes from one of the stupidest movies of all time, Quest for Camelot. 😆
Thank god for thst movie though it was cheezy.
I'd change the line from
We ask that life be kind
To
I pray that we be kind ( to each other )
And that's why you're not a lyricist 😂
@@victorialuxton1422 how can life be kind? The reason life ISNT kind is because we are all selfish, unkind and evil. When we get sick of hurting other people to get what we want, life might seem kind.
