Josh Groban in Nobel Peace Prize Concert 2002

[siobanethier]

wow.. Josh looks so young there... he hadn't started growing facial hair yet :) lovely!

did willie sing ' no need for WEED' ??!!!!! noooo! ;)

[astroboomboy]

Funny how the room is filled with former heads of state, people working for government, etc,. contributing in keeping countries, religions, and conflicts alive and well in are so-called enlightened era.

[Alouette31]

pesase, who can me the nave of the ma who's inging at 1"08???

[TheBSBsBack]

oh look its Angelique! her and Josh were my fav!

[imhotep2600]

ma perchè, ma perchè, ma perchè fanno cantare quella tizia italiana, perchè!!!!!!!! Grande, Mitico, Favoloso Josh Groban!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[hisalone1212]

this is terrible....liked willie nelson and josh only :)  ......who are the rest? amateurs?

[door2kno]

Josh should sing alone. Everybody has no match on him..!!!

[markcohen6969]

The first woman who sang and the third woman were both terrible. And the opera lady was good but the song really didn't suit her voice. And it didn't come very well together in the end at all. But still a wonderful performance. Josh would have been brilliant on his own.

[Josedehesa]

hahaha, Josh was somewhere else, maybe the bad vocals just drove him crazy!!! :D

1.53 Laura Pauciini..good one...just her and Josh, that would be good duet indeed!!!

[Josedehesa]

1.53 Laura Pauciini..good one...just her and Josh, that would be good duet indeed!!!

[ScottyDinBoston]

what the heck is this? some of the worst singing I have ever heard!

[britneylover456]

@ScottyDinBoston

Same here. Almost as bad as the We are the World Disaster of Haiti. That was the Worse

[arniemonkey]

2 39 was pretty grim too

[seektheforce]

Who is the lady at 2:30?

[myfebsong]

Loved Josh and Angelique. Some of those ladies hurt my ears.

[ferrierepc]

I don't think that the others could not sing, but that they, believe it or not, are not all from the US. There was a couple of us there, but also Italians, Koreans. Scandanavians....and all have different ways of singing. I think, rather than reviewing the singers, we should think how, together, we might make this dream of a song become a reality. I'm unrealistic in this, I know, but can't stop hoping for it. So many people against each other, and for what I wish I knew. This should be our goal.

[Lindow]

That was a mess. A beautiful one, but a mess. I really think they should have prepared this more adequately being the classic that this song is, not to forget the occasion.

[Sopranelsker]

Lindow, don't blame the artists. This is an expression of norwegian divine relation to spontaneity, staged by the organizers. Remember this if you're an artist and going to Norway. You should train more than you're used to, but don't you dare make it show.

[Shelby596]

Josh should have sang this alone, no one else can dream to match him... it's kind of sad.

[soul416]

Absolutely! Considering that half of the other singers can't really sing anyway.

[wolfienur]

My thoughts exactly!

0:26-0:39 was the best part. <3

[giggs102]

1:21 to 1:35 wasa HORRIBLE sounded like crap... but the rest were amazing especially joshj groban

[gloriasotelo]

Je n'arrive pas l'imaginer un monde sans frontiéres....le paradis!

[uniqueeva7]

the only people i knew were the first three and there all awesome

[paulsworkshop]

what  a dumb ass song

[akesling]

Willi's the MAN!

[towisyuri]

whose the baldy girl!? please

[gurlygal11]

i think its angelique kidjo

[DriveShoreLake]

I didn't notice Zachary Provost - the pianist. He was with Josh on tour at one time, but since has gone out on his own.

Very talented man - great voice

[DriveShoreLake]

Josh, Angelique and Laura - beautiful!

Great to see Willie and Santana, too.

[mcknighty11]

Poor Miss Norman, she had a frog jump in her throat right when she started singing :(

[okeyda]

love santa and nelson!! this is the kind of music that can make anyone cry..

[xoxbethersxox]

Who was that at 1:25! She can't sing!

[krystianidee]

Mari Boine.... blah hehe

[krystianidee]

Mari Boine

[bolivia165]

@xoxbethersxox Mari Boine

[melbutt01]

WHOO!!SANTANA!!!

[yodamonkey8]

The guys overall sounded pretty good (Josh Groban being the best by far) the girls though sounded absolutely terrible!

[akbarrussian]

are you nuts??? laura pausini were awesome

[JGfan16]

OMJ! Josh looks SOOO HOT here! And to think it's 7 years ago <3 He, Angelique and Carlos are my faves in this vid, although Carlos don't sing :P Thanks for uploading!

[pennymusicMAma]

If you do not know Sissel, you must be living on another planet. She is one of the greatest international singers today.

Do you remember the soundtrack of 'Titanic'- Sissel is from Norway & James Horner chose her to sing all the

vocalises & descants in the soundtrack - - the "voice". 

Focus upon the MESSAGE - PEACE -

they are singing about at the Nobel PEACE Prize concert. And remember ALL

that Pres. Carter has achieved for Peace.

[notblondeswede]

haha why does this feel kinda 80's

[suceress]

I've never liked this song, but I like Josh and Angelique Kudjo. Several of the people couldn't sing though... It was pretty painful, and toward the end it seemed rather lackluster.

Ugh, I wish they'd kept the camera off of Jimmy Carter's ugly mug.

Josh looked pretty distracted at the end-- he turned his mouth away from the mic.

Who was the pretty girl who was hanging on him? She couldn't sing worth crap, but she's pretty.

[Szhirida]

i couldn't agree you more :D The pretty girl was Laura Pausini, you must know her!

[suceress]

I don't think I've heard of her before.

[AntonioCabarr]

That was Laura pausini one of the great voices both in Italian and Spanish.

[argus1948]

Why is Josh Grobin mixed in with all these poeple who can't sing? I guess Jimmy Carter was digging this and his peace efforts are working out prety effectively. Now, on with "We Are The World."

[Orbster25]

no kidding eh?...yet again its not their fault Josh is so awesome :).l

[revankader]

yeah tell that to al quaeda lol.

[Laurie2332]

Sorry ... I know that this has probably been asked, but who is the person that sings at 1:39? Thanks!

[wacanggih]

michelle branch..i think

[pythonchild4life]

Yes, that is her. But I don't recognize anyone else but Josh, Willie, and Santana.

[xfiler47]

The lady with the high voice hurt my ears. Angelique is great.

[xfiler47]

You know -- people can share their possessions right now if they want to. There are a lot of people starving out there.

[shihtzulover24]

Josh was sooo awesome in this!

[falloncourtney]

He is Blessed nwith such an awesome voice...Keep it up darling!!!

[grobanluvva]

as always josh groban is pure perfection!he is so sexy!and what i believe will be the biggest talent this world will ever see.me a grobanite?YOU BET!have been almost 6 years now!i love you josh!keep making beautiful music!

[bjjcyou05]

for all human beings, it's the dream for all.

[xtramanx]

YET SO GREAT I THINK!!!

[saith2484]

One word to this: Laura !!!!

[mixtlic]

The singers of santana ( Andy Vargas & Tony )

they are greats

[EriksChristine]

Josh Always looks good. Sings Great! I love him. Josh is just perfect. :)

[lultimanotte315]

Who is the guy in black who sings right after Angelique?

[cqsallie]

Can you imagine George and Laura Bush applauding these sentiments?

It's really also sad to sse people who were probably children when this event too place, still doin' that neo-con stuff....

[mschelle2u]

The black bald chick has blown her voice out..it's damaged and sounds AWFUL!!!!!!!!

[Qetesh97]

are you sure you don't mean, the opera woman sounds terrible. The bald, black chick is Angelique Kidjo and she opened for Josh groban's AWAKE tour. She has an amazing voice. Take a look at PEARLS, which she & Josh did in the concert. It was Sade's song and they sound great together. She is also really funny, always trying to get Josh to dance. He can't very well, but she tries. She is really funny when on stage with Josh. We have her CD, Djin Djin. It is great!

Maybe a bad night,

Qetesh97

[EriksChristine]

Quite. Leave Angelique Alone

[sweetchels36]

everyone else SUUUCKED

haha.

except that spanish dude and Santana

and josh looks good!

[sweetchels36]

josh groban was the best.

geez

[NoKrakana]

omfg...who was that lady who sang the really high pitched thing...the one who sang while the camera showed santana?

[skriblez]

that would be Mari Boine

[bolivia165]

@NoKrakana Mari Boine

[fhockthot1938]

this is horrible

[amjPeace]

That's Zachary Provost on piano!

[jiinii]

ohhh my god that was horribleeee !!!! :S josh groban was the only one who sounds good ..

[rainbowspotter]

Very true. I just love him. He's quite adorable.

[ohsaint83]

this was very nice, but you know all those goverment peeps. are like nice but im still going to tax your ass.lol

[nekpausini]

Laura Pausini grande

[smittenlady]

now i see where josh and angelique may have crossed their paths that eventually resulted in their collaboration during the awake concert and their pearls duet. amazing! i like his solo version though.josh and angelique had a special bond.

[thisguy41487]

Seriously.....this song was butchered...josh did a good job though...all their voices didnt go well together...

[philip1718]

ugh! horrible! just horrible

[xmanousosx]

That was horrible...most of the singers didn't sound good together.

[TachieBillano]

LOL. The idea was noble enough (or Nobel? Nyuck nyuck), and very apt. Different voices uniting, to represent a unified world. And just like in a unified world, there are a few annoying voices ya end up just wanting to kill!

[amjPeace]

Maybe it wasn't in their key. At least they were all united in sentiment.

[marigl]

So Josh and Angelique actually met a while ago, that's so cool! They probably had no idea they would work together in the future..

[Jrnen2darkness]

JOHN LENNON'S SONG! I love them all singing it. R.I.P. Johnny

[Sydneyhannah]

Cool, he met Angelique a while ago, then! (She's the one who sings after Josh and is currently opening for him on his current "Awake" tour-- she rocks!)

[Jrnen2darkness]

Some of these people have weird voices. They butchered his song.

[PotterFan411]

I love this! It sounds so good with all of them!
