OneRepublic is an American pop rock band from Colorado Springs, Colorado. They made their first album with producer Greg Wells
during the summer and fall of 2005 at his studio, Rocket Carousel, in
Culver City, CA. Originally scheduled for release on 6/6/06, they were
dropped by Columbia 2 months before the album ever came out. In 2007, OneRepublic released their debut album, Dreaming Out Loud. Its lead single, "Apologize" was notably remixed by Timbaland, becoming a huge international success, reaching number one in sixteen countries, subsequently earning them a Grammy Award nomination.[3] The second single, "Stop and Stare" mirrored its predecessor's success. The album was later certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The band's second album, Waking Up (2009), produced the successful singles, "All the Right Moves", "Secrets", "Marchin On", and "Good Life", the latter reaching the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100.
OneRepublic's third album, Native (2013), became the band's first top ten album on the Billboard 200, and highest charting album to date, charting at number four. The lead single, "If I Lose Myself" charted within the top ten in several countries, while the album's third single, "Counting Stars",
became the band's most successful single in recent years, obtaining top
five placements in Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand,
the U.S. and the UK. This marks their highest charting single in the
United Kingdom to date. It has also peaked at number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100, matching their highest peak of "Apologize" in 2007.
Lately I've been listening to One Republic, and I must say they are really good. I mean the music is really an A++. From What You Wanted to Secrets to If I Lose Myself, these are the song that you want to sing all day long. You'll have a last song syndrome.
I think they're a mainstream/rock band, I don't know but I enjoy listening to them. Their album NATIVE is the best. Yeyyy. I wish I can have the whole album itself. Awww poor me.
Hahaha. Anyway, you should try listening to them, try with What You Wanted! Happy listening.
