Chester is the best vocalist in the whole world . This song is belong his voice. But I like cover too. And as a huge Chester fan Chester is way better. Chester is incomparable
Josh Groban is a great artist, but I'm sorry, his voice is way too deep to do this song effectively. It overpowers the whole thing, and pushes the music to the background, whereas, in the Linkin Park version, Chester's voice syncs up perfectly with the music, as he is wont to do. Plus, the music is a, I guess you could say, "remixed" version, it sounds almost nothing like the original track. I love this song, but Josh kinda dropped the ball here.
I like both but I can see your point of view. Some songs have different centerpieces: voice, instruments, production. For this song you're favoring the production aspects which I can agree with. I probably wouldn't like Josh singing "Personal Jesus" or Barbra Streisand singing "Edge of 17". It probably wouldn't work.
I hate it when people say that this is their song because they are born in December... or that it moves them because its December when they listen to it.... December is a metaphor in this song people, jesus!
His version is horrible and annoy me very much. He can´t sing so feelingly as Chester and his voice drives me mad. I love original version and I love Linkin Park too. They are the only way.
great version, little bit of a different mood but i really like it. i prob prefer lp's version because its a little more complacent and desolate, does a great job of capturing the feeling of a quiet wood in the winter with snow on the ground and trees. but this is great too, josh groban is phenomenal
@minitruck8608 wow never knew that, and this is one of my favorite LP songs too! haha go figure, but now that I listen to it closely it does coincide with divorce.....I can relate since my parents are in the current process of divorce as well
Josh has added more effects and instruments to make it sound better.
But to be honest , chesters voice sounds better. Josh has got a strong voice but this song needs a sober voice like chester's.
And 2ndly , Josh SUCKS when singing this song live (I'll not generalise all his live acts coz i've jus seen this 1) . Just see chester singing this live and compare.
And the main thing , the original is always better, let it be any artist who made the original.
hello! thanks so much for posting this! I love this song-Groban did a great job with it! Do you happen to know which album this is off of? I'm having a hard time finding it.
I like both versions of the song, but I give the edge to LP because you can understand what's being said during the elongated notes in LP, I agree that Josh's voice is better, but I like those other words in the song, it gives the song more depth
I'm not sure which version I like better, Josh's version or Linkin Park's version. Josh's voice is just awesome...I can only dream of singing that good
This version is not bad, it's pretty good, but LP's original version of "My December" is the best because I mean it's Chester, he's the original. Oh yeah, too the person who said this is Josh Groban's song is terribly mistaken. Yes I know how you meant it, but this is LP's song.
You can disagree, have your opinion, etc. However, is it really necessary to throw around discriminate terms like 'Bible-humping' or, in my own opinion, immature name-calling?
I like this verson but I prefer lp's version because chesters voice is raw and that matches the emotion of this song more to me... but I do love this guys voice, it's amazing...
Both versions from LP and Josh are great it just depends on ur taste of music. One is not better than the other. Its ur own opinion and u have the right to it.
Who ever wrote this comment knows nothing about Linkin Park...Mike Shinoda wrote this song. And Linkin Park recorded it with their first single, One Step Closer...Linkin Park leaked this song all the way back when they released Hybird Theory in 2000, and my december was the 13th track on Hybird Theory when Linkin Park released the special edition on March, 11 2002...Groban is an excellent singer but you are a naive fool if you actually believe this was orginally Groban's song
Yeah, you are completely correct. And clearly Groban is covering it for a reason. My December a ballad of sorts for LP, Groban knows how good LP is. He did an excellent job on this and both versions are exceptional.
ohh erm thank you glad you like it x and i have no idea it took me so long to find pictures i just went on google and typed in so many things like josh groban photos etc.. hope that helps you x and thank you for watching x
eh, it's okay... I like Linkin Park's version, no, original better.

and josh's voice is strong and good,,,agreed,,,but doesnt match this type of song,,,
chester's vocals is what this song deserves :)....
