The Vamps - wonder where this would have peaked without the pre order Ep?
This is alright, don't like Shawn Mendes vocal but it's not a bad cover by any means. Probably my 2nd favourite of theirs after Somebody To You.

A frightfully horrific cover of a decidedly average song~ :sick:

Biography

OneRepublic is an American pop rock band from Colorado Springs, Colorado. Formed in 2002 by Ryan Tedder and Zach Filkins, the band achieved commercial success on MySpace as an unsigned act. In 2003, the band was discovered by actress Kelly Barrett in Hollywood who connected them directly with her cousins Jimmy Ienner and Donnie Ienner, who was the President of Sony at that time, by making one phone call to get the AR Reps to their show. They then signed to Sony BMG for three years, before moving to Mosley Music Group.

 

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. 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. - Wikipedia

I'm not liking this One Republic song as much as their other singles. It's a little bland for me.
I adore this new OneRepublic song. :heart:
Aaaand now OneRepublic are back down to boring after a brief spell as mildly interesting.
This is the first time I've heard the studio version of this. It's okay, if bordering on bland, but it's no 'Counting Stars' or 'Love Runs Out'.
I quite like this, but it's no way as good as the previous three singles.
I don't get why they didn't release a new track from the new version of 'Native' rather than this. :huh:
Top 20 next week beckons for John Legend - All Of Me cough x factor performance cough :(

really not looking forward to that happening. Even if he doesn't perform AOM I bet it'll still get a big boost :drama:
