Songs are a bore, can't keep AWAKE

Josh Groban’s one of my favourite singers. He has a very mesmerizing voice—deep, rich and powerful.
Bought two of his previous albums, but the new release “Awake” is a disappointing production.
The lack luster compositions and trite lyrics do his voice a great disservice.
I mean, how inspirational can lyrics of such standard be?

Excerpt from the song “Don’t Give Up”:

Everybody wants to be understood

Well I can hear you

Everybody wants to be loved

Don’t give up

Because you are loved

Goodness, what a yawn.
