| Label My Food | Would you buy battery farmed eggs from a shop or supermarket?
Probably not.
Yet restaurants and cafes use battery-farmed eggs every
day in cakes, mayonnaise, fresh pasta, and many more dishes,
without telling you. If they were labelled ‘made
with battery-farmed eggs’ would you still want to
eat them?
If you care about what goes into your food and where
it comes from then Label My Food needs you.
Label My Food is an exciting new campaign encouraging
restaurants, pubs, cafes and all other food outlets to
dramatically improve the information they provide to customers
on their menus.
Whether it is animal welfare, the environment, a food
allergy, your religion or just a general interest in food
that motivates you, please show your support.

 Wonderful! December 30, 2008
This cd shows the incredible work that Josh Groban has done over the years. I bought this because of "Anthem" from Chess! Outstanding! and "Weeping" done live with the Soweto Gospel choir!! An outstanding rendition of this great song!! I already have all of Josh's other cds, but couldn't miss these two great songs.
 Amazingly Talented! December 14, 2008

I first heard Groban sing on the Charlotte Church Show and thought 'that's what all the fuss is about in America' and made a mental note to look his work up. Unfortunately, I forgot all about it and was mentally jogged when I saw him, of all places, on Loose Women a couple of weeks ago. So, I looked him up on Amazon and couldn't believe the price! I thought there'd been a typo! Unbelieveable price, Well done Amazon! Downloaded straight away and didn't regret it. His voice is so smooth and soothing, it doesn't matter that I don't understand what he's singing half the time. Buy it, and see why he's sold 25million in the States!
What a revelation December 13, 2008

Thank goodness this album was advertised on the television. I had never heard of Josh Groban before. Now after listening to half of this album [I have got stuck on track 8, To Where You Are] I will be catching up with his other works. This is beautiful collection of songs. He has a wonderful soaring voice, and deserves all the good reviews that are surely going to come for this cd. Buy it as soon as possible, turn the lights down, cuddle up in front of a roaring log fire, and indulge yourself.
A great week .. December 5, 2008

Rhydian and Groban in one week - you are spoiling us! I do hope this album will introduce more UK listeners to Josh Groban's considerable talent but, since many popular outlets don't appear to stock it, it may not. I bought all his albums in the US and, of course, have my favourites: his version of You Raise Me Up was the first I heard and, to me, all the rest are covers. I agree that Weeping was more effective on the Awake CD. But, most of all, I bought this album for Anthem from Chess. If you don't know Groban's work, try this album - not only does he have a great voice, he sings in four languages!
...from light classical to show tunes, Groban gets the best-of treatment, just in time for Christmas... November 28, 2008

Josh Groban is insanely popular in America, but mention his name to someone in the UK and you'll get one of two responses -- either a shrug or a reply of "Didn't he sing that Westlife song?" -- both of which are just plain wrong.
A lot of people sneer at pop/classical crossovers, but the record-buying public seems to love them regardless; hence the regular chart appearances of the likes of Il Divo, G4 and Jonathan Ansell, amongst others. With 25 million album sales to his name, Josh Groban likewise rates high with a lot of people. So even if it seems a bit early in the game, he releases his first best-of collection in Europe.
Each of his three studio albums -- 2001's Josh Groban, 2004's Closer, and 2006's Awake -- are well represented, highlighting his incredibly melodic tenor voice. As well, there are a couple of live tracks thrown in for good measure, including the previously unreleased "Anthem" and a version of "Weeping" recorded with the Soweto Gospel Choir at the Mandela Concert in Hyde Park, London. His voice has added resonance live, so it's a shame nothing from his three live albums -- Josh Groban in Concert, Live At The Greek, and Awake Live -- is represented in this set. Indeed, it was his live performance at a Michael Buble concert that first roused my interest.
Also included in this new collection is a bonus CD with six songs from his Christmas album, Noel, which was the best-selling album in America in 2007.
All in all, there isn't much that doesn't count as a highlight. Funereal favorite "You Raise Me Up" is, naturally, outstanding, but "Per Te," "Alejate," and "Cinema Paradiso (Se)" are right up there as well, along with the aforementioned "Anthem." If there is one song guaranteed to make a grown man weak in the knees, though, then it's "Alla Luce Del Sole."
There are a couple of missteps, however, like "Weeping," wherein Groban sounds restrained in the presence of the gospel choir, as well as on his rendition of the Charlie Chaplin song, "Smile," which is just unsuited to his vocal style. Glitches aside, though, it's an exemplary collection.
Whether this release will give Groban's career a boost overseas is debatable. There's certainly a market for his style of music -- and he's probably the best currently around -- but it's a crowded field. His profile over here in the UK is arguably as high as it's ever been, coming off the back of appearances at the Classical Brit Awards, his Royal Albert Hall performances of Chess and Nelson Mandelas 90th Birthday concert; so if he's going to make it, then this will be the time.
