February 9, 201412 yr Each to their own, I actually really liked the music video but the chorus sounded so weak for me. :( I appreciate the message but it sounded like it had been thrown together in the space of about 10 mins. Oh and my favourite KP singles are 'Wide Awake', 'E.T.' & 'Teenage Dream' :heart: I hate Wide Awake :lol: so dull. Waking Up In Vegas is her best :heart:

OneRepublic If I Lose Myself Native | 2013 http://a1.mzstatic.com/us/r30/Music/v4/ae/c7/1d/aec71dfd-8d26-db3e-7336-2b8f24b44ca0/13UMGIM27597.170x170-75.jpg Chart Run: 65-32-11-8 Format: download only track Label: Universal Music Sales: 70k+ Video here: dLa_ryRjC7M Biography Featuring the anthemic songwriting of Ryan Tedder, OneRepublic rose to prominence in 2007, when "Apologize" began its reign as the most popular digital download in American history. Although the song proved to be a quick success, OneRepublic had spent five years touring the musical minor leagues before its release, with Tedder splitting his time between the band's work and production gigs for other artists. Tedder and Zach Filkins formed the band in 2002 and relocated to Los Angeles shortly thereafter, adding keyboardist Drew Brown, bassist/cellist Brent Kutzle, and drummer Eddie Fisher to the lineup in the process. OneRepublic then signed with Sony BMG's Columbia label in 2003; three years later, however, the bandmates returned from a performance at Coachella to find themselves dropped from Columbia's roster. Nevertheless, OneRepublic's popularity continued to soar on MySpace, and Tedder helped raise the group's profile by penning songs for artists like Blake Lewis and Hilary Duff. Hip-hop producer Timbaland (with whom Tedder had already worked for several years) took notice of the group's audience and signed OneRepublic to his own Mosley Music Group, a joint venture with Interscope Records. Timbaland also remixed one of the group's most promising tracks, "Apologize," and included it on his own album, 2007's Timbaland Presents Shock Value. The song quickly became a platinum-selling single in many countries, breaking airplay records in the U.K. and selling an unprecedented 4.3 million digital downloads in America alone. Later that year, OneRepublic stepped out on their own with Dreaming Out Loud, a debut album filled with piano-fueled songwriting and pop/rock melodies. The album quickly went gold, and "Apologize" continued to top the singles charts in multiple countries. Another Tedder-penned track, Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love," experienced similar success at the same time, thus making Tedder one of the year's most celebrated songwriters. OneRepublic began writing songs for a second album in 2008, and the group later decamped to Colorado Springs to avoid outside distractions. Although initially planned for a summer release, Waking Up wasn't completed until September 2009. "All the Right Moves," the album's lead single, was released to radio that same month, while the entire album followed in November. In 2013, OneRepublic returned with its third studio album, Native, featuring the singles, "Feel Again" and "If I Lose Myself."

February 9, 201412 yr Good to see both artists following up (different) number 1s with a top 10 hit. Amazing song!
February 9, 201412 yr I love this remix. I also love the original too. I heard it on the radio yesterday and thought that it also sounds great too! :w00t: :cheer: Hope it can keep climbing!
February 9, 201412 yr Alesso getting his second top 10 single tonight! Amazing success for the Swedish DJ and producer, I just hope he can continue it with his own songs as both of his hits have been helped by his collaborators.

Blige, Faith Evans, and Gwen Stefani, first gained notice with “Tell Me,” a 2006 single produced by DJ NG. A series of other features followed, including lead turns on Jelly Jams' “I Try,” Geeneus' “Good Life” (a cover of the late-'80s Inner City house classic), and the Count & Sinden's “Hold Me.” All of those tracks preceded the release of her first proper solo single. “Katy on a Mission,” produced by Benga, was issued on Rinse in 2010. The album On a Mission was released the following April and debuted at number two on the U.K. album chart. Nominated for the 2011 Mercury Prize, it was issued that September in the U.S. - iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): 2010 05 Katy On A Mission -1- 2010 16 Perfect Stranger (Magnetic Man Feat.

February 9, 201412 yr The remix is a dulled down version of the original, why? <_< I agree, I prefer the album version. Also dislike how it's "Alesso vs. OneRepublic" rather than the other way around seeing as it's 1R's song but that's minor. :P
February 9, 201412 yr Crying For No Reason :heart: I didn't really get it but then after a certain listen it HIT me and I realised how good it was! Amazing. :wub:
February 9, 201412 yr Neon Jungles track must be the most successful Capital supported track - 3 weeks in the top 10, usually 3 weeks in the chart for artists like this. On Katy Perry my fav song of here is ET or The one that got away :wub:
February 9, 201412 yr Massive quality gain from the last song :P Really liking Crying For No Reason, glad it's holding well :)
February 9, 201412 yr I agree, I prefer the album version. Also dislike how it's "Alesso vs. OneRepublic" rather than the other way around seeing as it's 1R's song but that's minor. :P I 100% agree with both of these points!
February 9, 201412 yr Crying For No Reason :heart: Looking forward to the album tomorrow. I've avoided all leaks and spoilers!
February 9, 201412 yr I agree, I prefer the album version. Also dislike how it's "Alesso vs. OneRepublic" rather than the other way around seeing as it's 1R's song but that's minor. :P my OCD gets frustrated by the way that iTunes has it 'OneRepublic & Alesso - If I Lose Myself (Alesso & OneRepublic...)', unless it was some sort of trying to share even credit :P
