His phrasing in this is amazing--long, sweeping lines with notes held over into the next phrase, which makes the song more lyrical and increases the emotional impact. And of course, his pure, sweet baritone, his diction and his entonation are all flawless. One of his best performances IMHO.
Great talent!! ... There are some amazing artists, still unknown, just waiting to be discovered. Please visit my channel to discover one of these... an artist I really believe in and who I feel desreves a break.
Ah, I see where people are complaining about him not smiling.=(
Not to be mean or anything, but if I was going through a difficult time and someone came up to me with a big ol' smile plastered on their face and told me to do the same, I'd feel like slapping them in the face.
Thank you Josh, for the sincerity and the celestial voice- and you do smile your beautiful smile through some of your more...light-hearted songs. =) Love ya.
@rellenoz So if Josh should ever disappear after a concert I'll know who's got him ;-) I'd be really pissed if you did that though... :-S at least leave me a piece :-P
OK - not to blow my own horn, but I must take the credit for this song choice. I was there and yelled out SMILE and he yelled back to me....OK MOM. Then said, I don't often do this, but it is one of my favorite songs. Sad to say, they edited my yelling out of the DVD, but for those who were there certainly heard me!!! Thanks for posting!!
@blamelessss this is not a song about happiness, so he is not necessarily suppose to smile ... it encourages you to smile even when you go through tough situations and you don't feel like smiling .... you should have noticed that.......

@blamelessss I *love* it the way it is. To me this is a very very sad and very beautiful song. The singer is supposed to be singing to someone who is so sad and couldn't go on any longer. Singing this song smilingly would seem condescending.
@triprince1 - I was JUST thinking that! It's a sad song, not a happy one; just 'cause it's called "smile" doesn't mean it is a happy song. It's a sad song, about trying to comfort someone.
@blamelessss cause proper singing means using your vertical vowels so the sound comes full, as well as josh's voice does. plus, it is somewhat a sad song. still great <3
Jermaine Jackson did that at Michael's send off, and he sucked at it. Josh Groban is a better singer of it, his voice fits it better, but I am in love w/ Josh and Michael, NOT Michael's jealous, all talk no walk brother.
@princessJayNay22 Hi there! If you want this song, you can order it off of Amazon from the UK. There is a 2 CD collection called "Josh Groban: A Collection." It's kind of a collection of some of his best on 2 CDs that were only released in Europe. Smile is song 16 on the first CD. The second CD are 6 Christmas songs that Josh sang. Order it, you won't be disappointed! Happy listening!!
@42hopps I'm from Canada, but I bought it off of Amazon UK because it was the cheapest. I received it in 12 days from the time I put the order in. You can buy it off the other Amazon sites, but you'll pay a little more. Depends how fast you want it.
When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by
If you smile
And maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you
