 Did We Really Need This? March 6, 2008
3 out of 12 found this review helpful
First of all, this is at least the third cover of this song, as it was originally done by an Irish group, while Groban is (I'm pretty sure) Italian. And while Groban does have a good voice (it's more of a very mature acquired taste), his songs are boring, and inspirational. This song also sounds like the producer was heavily involved making this, rather than the artist. And due to the undue success of this song from saps who need a little lifting up, the inspirational genre is now a big sappy industry. And what's bad is, it has zero substance. Sure the lyrics, good gosh the lyrics, I mean, anybody can write these songs, but all the great ones don't because it's unoriginal. I mean if this song helps you, great. But for the rest of us that only care about great music, the song is only ok.
Overall, if you're a sappy soccer mom who needs a little lifting and inspiration in your life, buy the song, otherwise, don't support this genre any longer. Please!
Operatic quality male voice. A nice song. January 1, 2008

An operatic quality lyric baritone male voice for our time on a par with Enrico Caruso, and a nice guy. Talk about humble... "you raise me up"? Geez, fella.
