OneRepublic

If you were to compile a list of the most successful artists of the past ten years, OneRepublic would likely not be a band that you think about. Sure, Apologize with assistance from Timbaland was a monster hit (so much so that I got the phrase "it's too late to order fries" stuck in my head), but OneRepublic seems like just another band that will always have their songs played on VH1 and Adult Contemporary radio stations. However, if you look a little closer, OneRepublic seems to crank out hit after hit with their latest song, Counting Stars, being their biggest song since Apologize. While I don't understand the video, I really, really like this song. Enjoy!



Of course, it certainly helps that lead singer Ryan Tedder is one of the best and most prolific songwriters today.
