OneRepublic chat to I Like Music

OneRepublic have been around a while and their lead singer Ryan has penned many hits, including Leona Lewis's latest number one - Bleeding Love. After being signed to Columbia the band made an impact on MySpace before their song "Apologize" becamee featured in remix form on Timbaland's 2007 release Shock Value. The song reached No.2 on Billboard Hot 100 chart and No.3 on the UK chart.

The group has recently finished recording their debut album entitled Dreaming Out Loud set for release on November 20, 2007.

We caught up with lead singer and songwriter, Ryan to talk about Apologize, working with Timbaland and Leona Lewis and writing quality tracks.

I Like Music because.... it is the soundtrack to my life every day." RYAN, ONEREPUBLIC

ILM: How did the collaboration with Timbaland on the hit single, Apologize come about?

RYAN: Well I've known Tim for about six years. I used to be signed as a solo artist back in the day. So he just kept tabs on me as my career progressed and we used to be signed to Columbia records and we got dropped a little over a year ago, and right after we got dropped our band exploded on MySpace out of nowhere, so all these labels starting calling us. Timbaland was one of them and he offered us the most interesting situation. He told me 'Aplogize would've been a hit with or without me', as it was already a hit on the internet but what he did was speed up the process tremendously.
