Couldn't Love Josh Groban More...He's Transparent, Sweet, Childlike, And Simply Amazing...Huge Fan...Love Him.
me too.
Love Josh and his incredible amazing voice (Josh is my favorite singer! What a genuine person! ❤️
Diana Richert 😳😞🙁☹️😠☹️☹️☹️
NJ Joy oh you are so right. I just love him
HE'S A TRUE ....... GIFTED ARTIST!
i guess the interviewer has never heard of the expression, 'A dog is a man's best friend'?
and yes, I believe something spiritual/supernatural was going on when the dog prevented the bike ride. So glad to have Josh Groban still in this world with his beautiful personality, and his beautiful voice.
An Incredible voice, a humble, warm-hearted and funny personality, and a great actor too! What more can we ask from the wonderful Josh Groban? 💙
he skipped us at the first class line at the airport and was with an airport escort despite not being famous. since that day, i hate this dude
yes i'm here but i didn't watch it. and no i didn't make up this story, what a weirdly specific story to make up. stop defending people you don't know dummy
Ana Martins it was him i am 100% sure and he was a public figure then (this happened 4 years ago). what i'm saying is that he is not famous enough to be escorted around by airport staff. usually staff escort you when your presence will cause disorder when hundreds of people/fans see you. in his case, he's not that famous for that. anyways...
@@MEGIDIOT He travel with his band, crew and security that he needs in concerts as all artists, because when there are a crowd, it's dangerous to not have security. Probably you saw him with his security because they go together, all of them. He walks alone when he's walking in the street, and he uses the subway when he's in NY. If you want to talk shit about famous people you picked the wrong guy.
I have depression and anxiety too...when I first started listening to Josh, I felt safe. He calmed me with his angelic voice and made me feel better about myself. His music truly inspires me and I love Josh so much, if u could meet him I would. He is my idol and I just love him.💘☺
So much better to find comfort in the wonderful things in the world like this man's beautiful voice and to count our blessings . We need to fight without the horrible meds doctors push us to take. Life has terrible problems and tragedies but faith and a willingness not to give in so fast to drugs that have warnings that of all things they can cause suicidal tenancies. Of course this is only my opinion. I am not telling anyone to do anything just what has worked for myself and several people when death of a child or some other experience happens. Pills help but hide the real problem . Talking with a group and therapist is important , again only in my opinion. I seem to have angered folks by giving my opinion which I don't understand. I am always open to what others think and can then make my own choice.
@@marjegill3376 I Agree!! :)
I struggle with the same things, as do many, many others.
Also me! I can listen to Josh and feel at peace. I feel so good, happy and at peace when I listen to him, and believe me I need that peace! I’m 77 years of age, but his music makes me feel timeless. I fell in love with The River, 99 Years and so many other songs he sings.
I believe the first song I listen to was Josh and Andrea Bocelli then Celine Dion and so many other. To make a long story short, I love you J G
I am have anxiety and depression too and I only found this interview now but whenever I have a panic attack it’s always his music that calmed me down! His song “River” calms me down 100% of the time 👌🏻
How can one person be so talented, funny, kind, and relatable at the same time? I suffer from anxiety and mild depression as well. I also have insomnia and i get terrible headaches. I love Josh so much❤️ his music had helped me through a lot
Me too!
Dear Hayley, I also had terrible headaches for months. At the end I went to the doctor who sent me to physiotherapist. After 1st session I was released from the pain, I’ve could feel it- it was like I was reborn again, auch a relief!! I was so happy!
tension is created in the neck and the physiotherapist will find that point, you have to feel that something "crunched" and then you will know that you are relieved of tension. Trust me, don’t suffer, find experienced physiotherapist.
Josh is a wonderful human being .... Voice to match...
True
Just love Josh Groban. What a beautiful guy. Amazing singer.
karen lnsy With that beard 🧔🏻, his image matches his voice now. 😂
This is his best interview so far. He's so funny and open talking about his depression and anxiety and also Sweeney
This makes me love him even more. I have also struggled with depression and anxiety since I was 13 years old. Unless you’ve experienced it, it is difficult to comprehend. I have an amazing dog that is very in tune to my emotions and recently hatched a wonderful silkie chicken that seeks out attention. ❤️
same... 13 years ago
Kristen Paz 6 years 😢
Interesting
@Josh Gorban Oh wow. Hi! I’m from Florida. I immediately started crying when I saw your response. You will always have my love and support and I will always be a fan. I first heard you sing The Prayer with Charlotte Church. I immediately bought your CD (wow remember those?) and learned all the lyrics. Sure most of them were in Italian or Spanish, but I could feel the emotion of the message. Two years later I drove to Orlando to see you in concert. You were my first concert. ❤️ Many of your songs got me through rough patches over the last 20 years. You are so special to me.
So honest, real, & refreshing. I didn't know I could like him more.
A dog is a gift from God.
Just love Josh Groban. He has sacrificed much to create the best moment in so many people's lives with his glorious voice. Thanks, Josh.
True
For our 30th Anniversary we drove, from North Idaho, 800 miles one-way to Salt Lake City to see Josh perform. He was SO worth it!! And the fact that he is a Terrier owner makes him even more wonderful. Blessings on your head, Josh. Live a long and joy filled life.
Just when I believe I couldn't Love Josh Groban anymore than I can. He talks about his battles with Depression and Anxiety things which I have struggled with On & Off. I Applaud him for being an Inspiration . He has a awesome sense of humor besides his Beautiful Voice and is Humble qualities I admire.
Such a Humble sweet man.I wish I had no fear to use my gift of singing.. He is so Blessed. I know depression road... Very tough.
Just Don't care what people think. Block them out.
Built up, practice ( plan ) and have confidence in Your Talent.
Don't look back in 5 or 10 years in regret "oh if I had of done that then".
Traci Kauffman he is a very humble kind man as met him a year ago July 2017 - Use your gift believe me it does work for me I can not sing but it releases so much tension, anxiety and depression what a feeling. He is so blessed and a wonderful man. I know depression can be very tough I am now struggling from a major stroke of May 21st. 2018 - and Stroke does so much to the body brain etc. but by singing it helps your depression, anxiety and gives you deep feelings for other's. For people you love brings back memories whether be sad or happy but you learn to cope and the words, the meaning of a song and as Josh says a Pet a loyal friend that will never deceit you is a loyal loving friend who shows how to love. God Bless and pray for the best for you. Blessings.
Peggi Breen his music really helps me. I struggle with post natal depression since becoming a single mother to my twins (who I adore). I am glad I am not alone
I had a big fear of singing too. I mediate this Holy Bible verse, in the New American Standard Bible (NASB), in 2 Timothy 1:7- "For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline. "
Meditate on this Holy verse. It will help you, like it did for me. I'm following my dreams to be a singer. Praying you'll be a singer too ❤🎤🎼🎵
Josh Groban, I enjoyed getting to know the man behind the voice...you have been a part of my family for years...my grandson is named Josh...and your music is a favorite...thank you for being you and for sharing ....
Josh, I hope you know what a gift you are to the music world. We all get down and depressed but listening to your music lifts us. I hope you find the gift that will lift you, I bet it will be music from someone you love to listen to. I was widowed at the age of 57, music literally saved me. Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us!
@Josh Groban I am doing well, hope you are too.
@Josh Groban Fake Josh 👎
@@barbarastogesdill4955 Fake Josh Groban
@Josh Groban since your song was on AllyMcBeal. Seen you 2x in St Louis.
I love Josh's honesty and transparency! It's hard to open up in public like this, and let everyone see your vulnerable side like this. Especially when you're a man, us men do not like sharing our feelings.
Great interview!! Josh Groban is so talented. He has a great personality~
He was open to talk about the challenges with anxiety and depression , which I have coped with
for years.
His voice is amazing!
Thank you for sharing!!💖👍
True
He is a real life angel!!!
I admire his being so down to Earth. I really like him so much. Not to mention the best singer ever.
I think it is great that finally Men are coming out about their struggles of Depression and Anxiety. The first time I saw him was on 'Ally McBeal' and sang 'You're Still You' Omg! I felt goosebumps on my arms. I love that song.
Keep strong, man!!! You're not alone!!! We are all with you.. always
I have always adored Josh from way back when. It's got to be when he was real young. Just hearing his voice makes me so happy and it reminds me of my wonderful Arthur who passed away in 1996 of February of Leukemia.
LOVE JOSH with all my heart and soul... GREAT BEAUTIFUL GENTLE GENUINE SOUL....with so much talent and heart... the BEST!!!!
@Josh Gorban Suburb of Philadelphia...You have a voice that is superb, and a lovely personality !
All my respects to Mr. Josh Groban that has to be time and time again with all the empathy and individual resources that characterize him to face with the endless promotionals he has to invest in, in order to cope with what is established by the industry for a professional star-singer like him. Many would say that it is too profitable for both parts and yet and yet . . . take good care of your sensitive soul Josh 🙌 thank GOD you now have someone by your side to back you in loving balance♡♡Don't allow all mass media to touch & drain your innermost, protect thyself✨
Josh, I do not know you personally, but even from listening to your songs that were sang in YOUR voice and YOUR lyrics and YOUR melody, I somehow just knew that you must have been through depression and anxiety... all of the stuff I had problem with throughout my life. So, I guess, what I want to say is... thank you. For being there, for not only your image but also personality... (also I love your weirdness).
Just let him be who he is. Everybody needs to worry about themselves and stop analyzing everything he says. Good grief. Think about the lives he has changed with his music and giving so much of himself to do so. Think about that and let him be Josh. Appreciate, don't pick people apart.
Just jealous of course..
No one commenting here will ever hold a candle to him. His musical genius will endure while the negative comments will be a distant memory starting NOW
I couldn’t agree with your comment more Josh Groban is an extraordinary human being
I've been to 3 Josh Groban concerts. I was hoping to go to the concert where he'll be promoting his new album. However, I suffer from chronic pain which in turn makes my depression & anxiety worse. I thank Josh for sharing. I look forward to his new album!! Btw, I like him clean cut. LOL :)
This weird nerdy sexy dude ah . . . Fan since 6th grade and he's just amazing... for who he is
Many thanks Mr. Skavlan for such an insightful talk with Mr. Groban, thank you for the respect you showed 🙏🏻
Thank you for watching, we're so glad you liked it!
I thank you for the kindness of your answering, Mr Skavlan , just subbed 🙏🏻
Love this Josh, every bit of your sharing! Thank you!!!
Thank you Josh for your courage and vulnerability, as a sister survivor I appreciate your honesty about your journey with depression and anxiety. Here's to the light in the darkness and to balance and to humor.
This was a great interview with Josh Groban. THANK YOU for posting and sharing this wonderful time spent with him.
I just love this human being. Thank you for being just you, Josh Groban. I just love you the way you are. The singer, the artist, the greatest voice, and so on. I wish you the best. You rase me up. Huge hug from Portugal. 💖
Dogs are great! Best friends for sure. Someone said that dogs prove that angels walk among us. I agree. I’d be lost without mine.
You are such a brave soul. Your transparency is so admirable thank you for all you do, say and sing.

Such a beautiful soul, voice of an angel and seems like such a kind human.
Lovely, Josh, always! You’re a gift. May you always be able to connect with those who love you, ‘cause we are many. A great message, too, for those isolated by their demons. Reach out & let love and light guide you home.
He is gifted with one of the great voices of our time and he's just getting started.
Thank you for posting this. Love it!! We love you, Josh. Went to your concert twice, years ago here in South Florida. And can't wait to see you again. Pls be happy and wish you all the best. 💐
Thanks for watching! :-)
Josh, you are a treasure!! Thank God he gave you such a beautiful voice to share with us!!
Mr Groban, if you only knew how much your songs helped me with the passing of my only son. I found your songs sooo helpful! Keep singing the songs they are reaching and helping so many of us ..... Praying that you will overcome your anxieties, loneliness and depression. You are admired and helping so many of us.
@Josh Groban It began when I first heard your song that you sung shortly after our only son was KIA August 20, 2008 (Afghanistan). “To Where You Are”.
My dogs, horses and chickens brighten every single day for me. Regarding social media my husband said it well one day, social medial can be just like the bathroom wall in middle school. Keep up all your good work, we love your music and gives us a huge lift in a world that has so much pain and suffering. Thank you!!!
Thank you Josh for this interview and video which I met you when came to Boston MA and what an inspiration you are and how your humble way showed people how to be kind, caring understanding and to love even when you were troubled. Bless you always as you are such a talented man that shares your love with all.
I understand depression and anxiety. You are such a bright light, and amazing human being Josh. I hope you can get through any dark times, and know that you have got me through many as well. If I could make you smile or laugh in your times of need I would, because your music has meant so much in my life. Sending so much love. I battle it too. I lost my soul mate 2 years ago and I am still devastated. Your music helps me process my grief.
Love you Josh. thank your for your music. Loveso much "To Where You Are"....always remember my mother with this lovely song.
Josh is such an amazing talent and a sincere human being .its strange how such hugely talented people always have a lack of belief in themselves. How could anyone not like this guy.
I love Josh Groban - a real person, a true master. I never tire of hearing him sing.
JOSH Groban is amazing I been singing with you since before my mom passed away, she loved Josh groban 🎶💪ty for the songs friend.
I love Josh the way he sings. The lyrics and the melodies really touched my soul. "You Raise Me Up" is the best for me.
I love to see Josh on stage. He is amazing. When he walks the fans it's great! One of my times to see him perform he held my hand and sang to me. It's a moment in my life I will remember forever.
Such a great interview *Fredrik Skavlan* and *Josh Groban* !
Thank you!
Who is Skavlan?
Thank you for opening up to us, Josh! I've loved your singing and your songs ever since you first started. I also live with depression and anxiety. ❤
I've always loved Josh but after seeing this video I love him even more. My dog is my best friend too! Sweeney saved your life! Thanks Sweeney!
I have suffered with anxiety and depression all my life. Thanks for being so open about your feelings. Your music always lifts me up.
Oh Josh how I love to hear you speak.... You are a wonderful darling ❤❤
He's so real and reaches out with an open heart to connect with others. Refreshing and honest ... I deeply appreciate having him in our world. So many wonderful songs have been touchingly rendered over the years. I love his amazing grasp of the different languages he sings ... beautiful. Thank you Skavlan for creating this opportunity for us to meet you and Josh. I also enjoyed his wisdom and his humor. It was a wonderful interview ... Josh is very entertaining and Mr. Skavlan (?) was truly engaging.
What a gift we have been given regarding Josh Groban!!! I have depression but I am to relieve that emotion by playing the piano where I feel the feeling through my own music, and then always come to a beautiful resolution, my emotions go to calmness and gratitude.
As I heard one song of him, then follows with another.... until I can no longer stop hearing his songs!
As if am drugged of him & his songs!
Josh is a smart wonderful amazing young man! I love him!
You're my idol Josh. I love you man.
This was a terrific interview with Gosh relates to being depressed with anxiety. More men are coming out with these emotional experiences, and the internet like facebook are getting their feelings are. Thank you for the upload and sharing.
Thank you for sharing Josh! Keep the faith!
Josh Groban- So She Dances lyrics reminds me of my mother she was a ballerina for the Winnipeg Ballet Co for most of her life and gave up dancing to have me and my sister, She died in 1996 of 4 brain tumors and lung cancer, and what your music does, is remind me that "so she dances" in heaven! with allégro en grand jeté and leaps through the heavens with a huge smile on her face! Thank you for sharing about your depression. You are the best! xo
Such a beautiful human being with precious gift!!
Josh, your lyrics and sensibility elevate. You Lift Me Up lifts me beyond my troubled nuclear family and cements my connection to my adopted family. Such a gift. ❤️
Gosh thank you for talking about your depression and anxiety. For every person who shares those personal health issues, it really helps so many many other people with depression and anxiety.
“You are not alone” ever. May God always be close to you, you are a gift to the whole World.💞
Thank you Josh. It's overwhelming for me to watch everything right now. I have a million emotions inside. The only thing that helps me is one thing at a time. I'm going to watch them all. Your so sweet.
Thank you for posting this video.
yes josh I'm your number one fan here in the phillipines. i really love your amazing voice and owned compost songs .
Josh, so sweet. Love all your music.
I have always loved Josh Groban and I always will. what a special gift he is for us. such a brilliant beautiful soul. Thank you GOD
Wow! Great job on your Rendition of bridge over troubled waters. Blessings on you always.
He went to the Interlochen Music school near my hometown. Love him.
My most favorite voice and person I listen to.a lovely man....
Enjoyed the openness of Josh Groban. Have always loved his voice, now I love the man that he is, too!
Just watched you last night in SLC. Great concert and I love the song.
I just love Josh Groban and so does my 11 year old daughter. Can't get enough of his music.
I had no idea of his unfortunate incident.. don't know when that was.. dogs will always know when danger is near.. thank God for sweeney.. Will always love him forever ❤️
Humility is underrated. You are inspiring in so many ways, Josh.
What a lovely guy Josh Groban is. I’ve been a fan of his for over 20 years. Every interview I’ve ever seen him do, he’s always what you see is what you get. He seems so grounded and unaffected by his fame and stardom. What a great talent he is with such a beautiful singing voice. He is truly gifted.
And on top of it ALL, Josh has is a dad to a fur baby. His dog reminds me of my cat.
This man is a genuine human being
Josh Groban--- If you curse, it will not mar your kind and warmhearted spirit. THANK YOU for being so real, encouraging so many who suffer from anxiety and depression, and being so authentic. It is clear that you use your fame and success to honor and bless others, and to bring people up. The world needs more, many more, like you! Thank you.
Josh Groban you are such a beautiful soul, God has blessed you with a musical gift, thank you for sharing this with the world.
I hope he gets better!! I hope he knows how magnificent he is and how much happiness he brings to the world with his gifts.
Had this since I came first remember. Mix that in with Euphoria and it's tough getting by. Seem to love those who have the same trip to deal with. Great interview and super incredibly brilliant Josh Groban.
TY for helping to describe what we are going through.
I enjoy listening to your music. It's beautiful and motivating.
Josh shows us his heart, humour and intelligence- his dialogue about depression and anxiety about how everyone gets those feelings, so honest and true. This is how he comes across in performance, very self-deprecating and humble. Such a wonderful man :) no boy, no more.
You’re great Josh! Just keep being and doing who you are! Love you and your music! God bless!🙏🏼❣️
I am so glad that Josh shared his struggles with anxiety and depression. Many do not know that even the patriarchs and prophets at times struggled with loneliness, anxiety, and depression. There are more than you may think sincere, committed Christions live with emotional dilemmas in spite of faith in God. Thank you Josh.
An inspiration toe as a writer and singer, gosh inside I could afford his show....I've followed him since the very beginning when he was discovered by Celine...he is so incredible and just such a well rounded writer and singer. Thank you for sharing the struggle Mr. Groban...you and Andrea Bocelli is incredible I love it.
Some of the hardest battles are given to the greatest warriors 💜🌺
Awesome interview! I've been loving your music from the literally your very beginning. Thank you for the song River, so poignant, beautiful, and inspiring...though personally painful at times to listen to it. Wish I could see you in CT at Mohegan Sun, in a few weeks. Have a great tour!!!!!
josh you are right dogs are great Lucy my 4th dog she gets me though the rough times like your music
The way Josh shares his experience is so mentally healthy. I am grateful to hear him. It gives me validation. Thank you, Josh.
Just a sweet man ..... want to
hug him 🤗😭his heart so genuine🥰.... the beard is definitely nice 👍🏾
As real as it gets and down to earth...great interview... great Laughs and letting people know about the struggles that all have... class act!
as near sweet man I have seen and seen in concert love him I am now 86..
You are loved, very good human!
I used to do the same thing when making a song up, but I can write the lyrics after, just falls into place, your still my hero, no one is perfect but there are people meant to help others in a big way, and as lonely as it can be at times, there is always someone or something that shows us, we aren't alone and how blessed we are...love all you do Josh Groban
@Josh Gorban We are all here to help each other, God put you in my path, your special and I pray for you and think of you often. thank you for letting me know as sometimes I feel like you as well. If you ever need words to get you through, I am here always for you. I hope you're doing well in this weird world right now. Know if you stay close to God, you will have a very blessed life. I am so grateful for finding you when I needed to finish a job for God. Hearing from you always lifts me high. thank You dear Josh You know this a four year old video?
Josh here is such a generous and accommodating person I feel like you don't have to be a good interviewer to have him open up.
