I do like them. I kinda dislike they suddenly got so extremely big, but I do think they deserve it. I know them from back when they were just called Republic. They already had most of the songs that ended up on the album, though some tweaks were made to the songs. They are great guys and have a good gift for music. Though I really think the production of the album could've been looooooads better.

I love their album. It's pretty addicting. I'm into the first half more than the second half of it though. I can't stand when radio/iTunes says "Apologize" is by Timbaland ft. OneRepublic. It's the opposite way around!!! But I guess, it's marketing.

^^actually no, it's not, it's Timbaland ft. OneRepublic, because the (re)mixer should always come first, and the band/artist of the song should come behind. I'm not entirely sure why that is, but that's how it (almost) always is.

It would always piss me off because I feel like they should have gotten more credit lol, although, I will admit that I like Timbaland's remix better than the original.

I like what I've heard on the radio. I wish the songs weren't played so much, though. One time I heard Apologize on three different stations in 15 minutes.

I think the album is pretty solid. I think it's a bit inconsistent at times. I think "Say(All I Need)" is one of my favorites, as is "Mercy".
"Apologize" was amazing the first couple times I heard it, but it went downhill so fast in my mind. I've never had that happen where I love the song on one listen, and on the next can't stand it and decide to skip it.

^^happened to me before a couple of times. I still really enjoy the original version of the song, but can't really listen to the remix anymore
