Such a shame that "Kristina från Duvemåla" never received a treatment as an international production! I saw it 6 times in Sweden and 2 times in Finland and never got tired of it. Such lavish production and strong score!!
My Wife and I saw Josh in concert in Portland, OR in August 2016, I have a new found appreciation for this incredible artist. Josh executes his music perfectly and his arrangements are beautiful, the man is talented to say the least, Singer, writer, drummer, pianist and probably more . This is one of my favorite tracks from the Stages album.
What a song so pleasantly enfolded by an Irish melancholic air, poignant message content shown by its lyrics I thank Mr. Josh Groban and his producers for such quality of an album "Stages" that has made many of his fans to delve much furtherly into his Music and precious voice, selections much much appreciated, many thanks Josh, a soft gentle night to you and everyone who happens to be reading: wishing a whisper of calm gentleness embracing each while listening to these masterpieces º namaste
Sweet night J♡sh❤️🇮🇹💕:*:💖🇺🇸💙your fans l💜ve you so very very much 🇮🇹🌾💚♡❤️🌿🇺🇸🗽🌃GOD BLESS AMERICA & THE AMERICAS PS: Going out of town now for the weekend but I shall see Y💗U next week, 💛K-?
I sang this song at a talent show and most of the complements were on that note. "And the glass shatters..." :) I thank Josh for singing this. I never would have discovered this hauntingly beautiful song. It is one of my favorites; it is tied with In Her Eyes.
cheekysmiley they translated the whole musical, with Helene still doing Kristina actually. You can find it on Spotify if you want to check it out. Search for "Kristina live at Carnegie"
+Anna Rayne I looked on Spotify, nothing but a couple of songs. Had to search by "Kristina fran Duvelma" it did not recognize "Kristina live at Carnegie" kept trying to give me female artists named Kristina
Will do you have Premium? I just remembered that I think I had to use my dad's account for it (I usually don't use Spotify so I never felt the need to pay for it). I think it might be exclusive to that.
It’s from the musical based on the Swedish books about a group of Swedish emigrants during the mid 19th century years of really bad harvest and famine that struck my country. Books by Vilhelm Moberg are available in English.
What??? No I did not know that until I saw this comment! Hell yeah that makes this song even better! ABBA are absolute legends. And I love the country Sweden.
Randomly looking over singers singing with their fans.. i found a video with Josh Groban singing with a french girl! Godlike voices! Thats how i ended up here! I must admit i never heard of you till few weeks ago! You have an amazing power of transform notes into feelings for us and i want to thank you for that! You are such an inspiration! I just wonder : What is your favorite song from all times!? (hopefully i will have an answer someday)
+Adda Andreea She's not French, but French-speaking Canadian. Her name is Maude Daigneault (I might have misspelled it slightly but I'm close.) Anyway, she's a lovely young lady in her early 20s now, and has her own channel with lots of nice performances on it and a lot of followers. You could say Josh Groban "discovered" her. :D I'm glad he did, and I'm glad you discovered them, too! Welcome to the "people who love great music" club!
they were both musicians, they made fortune however the other got greedy and poisoned his pal, they met in the after life and the truth was made known in the living
Kristina from Duvemåla. Musical theatre play by ABBA about the Swedish emigration to Minnesota in the 19th century. It of the more opera-styled tradition, and very very good. The full English version is available at Spotify under "Kristina at Carnegie Hall"
This is alright, but as a Swede who's really familiar with the original, sorry this doesn't even hold half the feeling and impact Peter Jöback's preformance has.
This song by benny and Bjorn is beautiful, and here is the fantastic voice of Josh Groban singing it , perfection.

a legend singing a song written by two Swedish legends...we salute your genius Benny and Bjorn.🙌
I don't know why people doesn't familiar with this song, as Josh Groban fans, I really really love this song and his voice is incredible. ❤❤❤
Well… It’s a cover. To do it better somethings need to be imoroved compared to the original
Much as I love Josh I prefer this song sung by the Swedish singer Peter Joback
You can almost feel the tears running down his face. What depth of feeling in this performance!
Or in this case. Gold can turn to platinum. This is just perfect.
I could not agree more!

How Sad and beautiful this song is!!!
No matter how many times I listen to this, I always turn to jelly EVERY time I hear him hit that note at 3:41 - every time.
I sang this song at a talent show and most of the complements were on that note. "And the glass shatters..." :)

LYRICS - Gold Can Turn To Sand
From Kristina
When I left I was leaving with a brother
Him and me, all we had was one another
We were young, it was springtime
And our dreams of gold were grand
Oh, Kristina, gold can turn to sand
Down that long, blazing trail
I walked beside him
He grew weak, and he leaned on me to guide him
Though I doubted our future in that godforsaken land
Oh, Kristina, gold can turn to sand
Still he shared in my dream
No matter how mad
He believed in me
I was all that he had
And I was glad of his company
In the desert, beyond the burning prairie
We got lost, we were foolish and unwary
Just how thirsty how desperate
you would never understand
Oh, Kristina, gold can turn to sand
Still I willed him along
I taught him the Song of the Ocean Wave
He, who shared in my quest,
Now laid to rest in a lonely grave
From a well that was poisoned he drank water
And he died where he fell - a beast to slaughter
As his eyes slowly faded
His old watch fell from his hand
Oh, Kristina, gold can turn to sand
Oh, Kristina, gold can turn to sand

I found a version of an English recording on TH-cam. I really enjoyed it.
Josh Groban has a grand voice I hope your audience found you on the right time and place
I don't know where this song comes from, but to me it is by far one of the most beautiful songs Josh sings. :)
It's from the English version of Kristina. :)
Check out the album "Kristina at Carnegie Hall" on Spotify. The epicness is absolute
I'm guessing Kristina is play?
Yes, "Kristina från Duvamåla" is a musical written by the male members from ABBA (whom also made "Chess")
It’s from the musical based on the Swedish books about a group of Swedish emigrants during the mid 19th century years of really bad harvest and famine that struck my country. Books by Vilhelm Moberg are available in English.
