I find Josh Groban to have a spectacular voice and all, yet I can't help but be quite mystified by his huge success here in the U.S without gracing any radio formats (he hasn't exactly become an AC staple either yet) and he's no talk-of-the-town over the media like Britney Spears.
So, honestly, I have to say, "What's Josh's appeal?". His voice, his sex appeal, his personality? What has helped him climb to the top of the Billboard 200?
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

Other than that promotional deal, I'd have to say it's his voice, which is phenominal. Also the music is highly accessible like Norah's is. I think that's the reason why the album has had so much success.
Plus, from what I understand his album performance has been consistently good on the charts. I think it was only a matter of time before he'd make it to #1. Didn't think he was going to do it this quickly.

He has a great voice. But I am still very very much surprised that he made it to #1 promotional deal or not. I guess people think it is time for a change. Plus ,with the exception of Babs and Rod Stewart , there are no real artist playing to the baby boomers

I'm confused as to what his success is. I have not heard his name outside of this board.
