OneRepublic (indie, great song, cd, album, Timbaland)

I'm sure everyone's heard their song "Apologize" by now... but I have to say, their album as a whole is excellent. Did anyone else pick it up? I highly recommend it. "Goodbye Apathy" is another great song.

apologize is good. but timbaland screwed it up. i mean the rhythm of the remix is good. but timbaland is not needed.

timbaland is what made the rhythm for the remix

I think he improved it somewhat.....I don't like the original too much.

The only thing I don't like that he did was take out the violin

Stop and Stare is a great song also but I didn't like the album as a whole....I guess there is only so much OneRepublic I can take it and after awhile it just all blends together and sounds the same to me

Most bands' songs sound the same now-a-days, especially with the decline in the skill of the record producers.

Not at all true. Your just listening to the wrong music.

I agree with RezZ , it's the kind of music you are hearing/listening to.

I'm hearing that. Well, mainstream anyhow. Like, not with the indie bands, but all the MuchMusic/MTV bands all sound the same and are unoriginal, but I guess that's what sells...But no, I definitely don't listen to bands that sound the same with all their songs, not anymore, although my brother could disagree.

Mainstream doesnt mean ****ty mtv bands. There is TONS of amazing mainstream music that sounds completely different. Sure the mtv music is mainstream but is only a fraction of it, and certainly not the good part of it.
