Originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado, this US quintet made headlines as the first rock band to be signed to urban music svengali Timbaland's Mosley Music Group label. Formed in 2004 by songwriters Ryan Tedder (b. 1979, Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA; vocals, guitar, piano) and Zach Filkins (guitar, vocals), OneRepublic began to take shape after the duo relocated to Los Angeles. Drew Brown (guitar), Brent Kutzle (bass, cello) and Eddie Fisher (drums) completed the line-up, with the quintet signing a contract with Columbia Records after only a few live appearances. The deal quickly soured, however, but redemption was around the corner in the shape of Timbaland. The urban writer/producer was interested in breaking into the lucrative pop rock market dominated by the UK's Coldplay and Keane, and had already hired Tedder pre-OneRepublic to work as a writer/producer on a number of his projects. In this capacity, Tedder contributed material to albums by artists including Natasha Bedingfield, Jennifer Lopez and Hilary Duff.

  Timbaland just added his sound, their own version is better-the one including Timbaland is on his music page. OneRepublic doesnt need Timbaland to make a gorgeous song, just their talent has made them huge. I hope to hear more of it

  I think this song is so hot. It's words are awesome and the singer is so cute! Kudos to Timerland, again. Can they ever go wrong?!

  OneRepublic is all right, but the real credit should go to Timabaland. This song by itself is empty, but the real producer (get your hands up in the air) should get the real credit for making it tops.
