One republic is pop rock american band formed in 2003. the members of the the band are: 
Ryan Tedder, Zach Filkins, Brent Kutzl, Drew Brown y Eddie Fisher.

In 2007, OneRepublic released their debut album, Dreaming Out Loud. Its lead single, "Apologize" was notably remixed by Timbaland, becoming a huge international success, reaching number one in sixteen countries, subsequently earning them a Grammy Award nomination. The second single, "Stop and Stare" mirrored its predecessor's success. The album was later certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The band's second album, Waking Up, (2009) produced the successful singles, "All the Right Moves", "Secrets", "Marchin On", and "Good Life", the latter reaching the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100.

OneRepublic's third album, Native (2013) became the band's first top ten album on the Billboard 200, and highest charting album to date, charting at number four. The lead single, "If I Lose Myself" charted within the top ten in several countries, while the album's third single, "Counting Stars", became the band's most successful single in recent years, obtaining top five placements in Australia, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, the U.S. and the UK. This marks their highest charting single in the United Kingdom to date. It has also peaked at number 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100, marking their highest peak since "Good Life" in 2010. 


One Republic is one of the most popular bands now a day, hits like “Something I Need” and “Counting Stars” took them to the top 10 of the most popular songs. Some songs talk about true love, how to express it, to be yourself, and that are some reasons why many teenagers identify with the lyrics and connect with the song. It is a great band because almost every song tells a story, talk about real life situations, and have original and entertaining videos. My favorite song is Secrets, because it talks about expressing yourself, don’t pretend to be something you aren’t, telling the one you love you do, don’t be afraid anymore, and just giving all your secrets away, also the rhythm of the song is great. OneRepublic is my favorite band, I hope you liked it too.
