In the new Entertainment Weekly, there is a piece on the singer Josh Groban. (Don't know anything about this guy except what it says in this article, so I don't know how valuable his opinion is.) In his list of "current faves" he recommends Into the Wild. The quote: Emile Hirsch was amazing. The album, by Eddie Vedder, is spectacular. I think it's comparable to when Aimee Mann did Magnolia.

    His music is horribly bland, but I'm not in his demographic. He definitely has operatic/singer talent. He'll most likely be the most talented singer of our generation.

    I believe I read something on here once where in another magazine or newspaper or something, he said he likes singing Pearl Jam songs in the shower. Also, I used to work at a venue that is no longer open, and he played there, and he played a Linkin Park cover, and actually made it work sort of, which is surprising if you know at all what this guy sounds like.
    words seem so out of place.

    Can't say his opinion is any more or less "valuable" than that of anyone else who says they like Vedder.

    But Groban's a good singer.
