Last night I went and saw OneRepublic, at the tiny State Theater. This was one of those bands I was looking forward to seeing live. I’m a sucker for sappy boy bands. I discovered OneRepublic a while back before Timbaland remixed “Apologize” and gave it stunning success, making it the breaking records song it is today. The band has also released “Stop and Stare” as their second single. I had a fabulous time at the concert but I’m also a fan as well as my friends. So I was able to sing along with all the songs, sway, and dance. I enjoyed hearing the songs I’ve sung along to in the car performed live. However, I can see how people who have not heard the CD enjoyed the two hit songs and thought the concert dragged a bit. If you haven’t heard the CD it’s worth checking out. It’s main stream pop; most of the songs are dramatic, and deal with emotional pain, and melancholy feelings. They deliver a strong melody that captures your attention, and you’re likely to find yourself singing along. My top track picks: Come Home, Say (All I Need), and Someone To Save You. Check them out! Have a lovely day!!

I decided to be a music critic today, how did I do?
