Some months ago, I found at YouTube the song "Apologize" by One Republic. I started to play it and I liked very much what I'm listening to, so after the end of the song, I pushed the button "replay" and at the end, I pushed "replay" once again, and again...
That's why I would like to share with you a little bit more about the CD "dreaming out Loud" that was released in November 20, 2007.
--- Why I like it --- One Republic is great music. Their tunes have perfect harmony, instruments and the lyrics are in the ears to fit. The music is so expressive that you can get even without the lyrics what is it about . Some bands make you stirred up, some peace you down, but what I like in One Republic is that they have a balance in what they play, if they stir up they do it softly, if they share peace they make it in a way that is not boring. This is true not only for the tunes but for the lyrics as well these are all in balance. Yeah. - And this is actually something that I don't find at other music because sometimes it is by virtue of being peaceful it is boring or it is not at all peaceful. One Republic is homely, peaceful, thought through and creating a good atmosphere.
--- Track list ---
Say (All I Need) Stop And Stare Goodbye, Apathy Tyrant Won't Stop Someone To Save You Dreaming Out Loud (Bonus Track)
Mercy Apologize All Fall Down Prodigal All We Are Come Home Apologize Feat. Timbaland Remix (Bonus Track)
One of my favourite is: Apologize, as I mentioned above... It breaks my heart listening to it what can happen through a not well done and joined relationship. Probably the singer and songwriter Ryan heart was broken by such a relationship, this is sad. Well, the music video is so preciously artistic that you understand immediately the inner feel, even in your own troubles.
The other song that is close to my heart is Stop and Stare. It has quite difficult lyrics to understand but listening the song you end up with the meaning.
No. 3 Goodbye, Apathy lets you put aside your apathy if you should have any. "everybody is watching you"
--- CD outlook --- In the mids of the cover is a tree that seems to be enlightened by the moon. It is night there, stars on the sky, though light comes up from the tree. The background of the picture is blue with some shades that makes the impression of a light dreaming night. On the top the header "One Republic" is well decorated by a circumscribed frame. Under the tree is the meaningful album title "dreaming out Loud". Wow.
--- Price --- On eBay you get it for £6.99
It is somehow interesting that these five guys: Ryan Tedder (lead vocals, guitar, piano) Zach Filkins (guitar, backing vocals) Drew Brown (guitar) Brent Kutzle (bass, cello) Eddie Fisher (drums) making up their mind to found One Republic can make such an awesome music. I would say: BUY IT!!

Advantages: Some very good, mature pop songs on One Republic's debut album Disadvantages: A few corny lyrics and repetitive tracks don't quite make it brilliant
