 Josh is trying to sell his "CHANGE" CAMPAIGN. July 9, 2008
4 out of 8 found this review helpful
There is some change but a lot of previous songs were repeated.
I tried to watch this DVD the 2nd time but I can't.
Somehow, I have the impression he's try to sell or campaign for the "change" thing for Obama, about Africa and such... I wonder why Obama didn't come back to Kenya and help his country?
 His music is so commercialized now! July 10, 2008

I loved his previous 2 CDs especially and his song in this CD "In her eyes" but the rest is just ...sugar pills.
With artist such as James Blunt, John Mayer (he's NOT a pretty boy , I know), and tons of alternatives, new rock like Daughtry and the late comer Jon Mc Laughlin (Enchanted 's movie "So Close", especially with his "Beating of my heart" is coming out... I don't understand who would play this stuff? Female listeners, I guess because of Josh 's baby face and nice guy appearance...I would understand but guys, there are much more talents and souls out there than the sugar-coated pop here.
OK, I admitted that I loved his first CD Italian opera cross-over but now I don't know, his music is just Pop... for girls.
By NOT buying this CD, we'll give hime a message to go back to his Opera cross-over roots!
*(I also love his song "Remember when it rains" but it was the song from the last album/concert Live at the Greek.)
 Freakin' fantabulous!!! May 14, 2008

I requested this for my anniversary. I have to say WOW! Can I just say that Josh really enjoyed himself. He was rockin' it out to many of the up beat songs. You can finally see that he was in his element and the music was exactly what he wanted to write and he felt every bit of it. So did I! Tariq Akoni tore up that electric guitar and the bassist was so good. Ok, I had to rewind this next part. Lucia Micarelli killed it! I mean, she gave me goosebumps. I can't tell you anymore...ok, I will. It was crazy!!! That girl is rock to the core. The celloist that accompanied her was excellent. You'd never think these instruments could be so raw but this showed me another side of it. I really enjoyed this DVD. I was eating while I watched it and stopped chewing (and sometime's breathing) a couple of times. What a great escape from the outside world. Exactly what music should do for you. Josh was on point with all his notes and his sound was never better! I just love Machine and Weeping. He was having a blast and always so kind, earthy and genuine. Never conceited or too good for the crowd. An he could be if he wanted to with all that raw talent! I love that! Love Josh and his band forever! Check out Michael Buble's Caught in the Act DVD. Amazing!!! I get to see it again with my girlfriend tomorrow. I urge all of you to buy this DVD. You will not be sorry. What you gain in an hour and a half is better than anything you can go see in the movies or on television. Stimulate your brain cells, people!!! I love all the instruments they use. This is excellent to stimulate children to want to take up an instrument. Ok, enough from me. P.S. My hubby shed a tear to Lullaby. I think I have got him where I want him! Another convert!!!
You won't be sorry you bought this!!! May 14, 2008

Utterly amazing! This DVD brought me right back in time, when I saw this concert twice in person. It is so moving that I was actually tearing up while watching him perform some of the songs (much to my boyfriend's amusement)! It is truly worth every penny and more. Even my boyfriend admitted it was pretty darn impressive (that is amazing in itself!) ENJOY!
An Affair to Remember......... May 17, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
It's all about the fans. This DVD is just stunning, can't say enough about it. This is a guy that is just simply having a "love affair" with his fans right now...it was amazing to watch this DVD. If you look closely at the cover, inserts, and just about all he does and says, you can tell they are trying to capture the fans and the moments. At the end of the concert he seemed a little sad, that is what makes his performance of "Awake" just sweeter than sweet..... like he is already feeling empty till he hits the road again...whenever that may be. I came away feeling like he is constantly reaching out, (literally and figuratively) building that bond and awareness...desparately trying to NOT have everything be about HIM.....we shall see. He is becoming quite an unique piece of work! ENJOY!!
