Sealed, Rare 2013 Original With Custom Hype Sticker On The Shrink Wrap. “As A Songwriter For Other Contemporary Pop Stars, Ryan Tedder Has Proven His Talent For Writing Intensely Catchy Songs That Stick In People's Heads Whether They Like It Or Not. But Of Course, Plenty Of People Do Like It, As Evidenced Not Only By Tedder's Success Producing Songs For Such Artists As Adele, Leona Lewis, And Maroon 5, But Also With His Own Band, Onerepublic. And As With 2006's Dreaming Out Loud And 2009's Waking Up, Onerepublic's 2013 Third Studio Album, Native, Once Again Gives Tedder A Vehicle To Turn His Hitmaking Abilities On Himself, And In The Process, Steal Just A Little Bit Of The Spotlight Away From His More Recognizable Clients. And Why Shouldn't He? Tedder Has A Burnished, Resonant Singing Voice And A Passionate, Emotive Vocal Style That's Perfectly Suited For The Uplifting Crossover Songs He So Expertly Writes. And That's Kind Of The Dilemma For Tedder And Onerepublic, Now Three Albums Out. How Do They Stand Out In A Sea Of Other Artists Who Sound So Similar To Them, Primarily Because As A Songwriter, Tedder Has Largely Defined Much Of The Entire Modern Pop Sound? In Many Ways, Onerepublic Are A Clearing House For Mainstream Pop Sensibilities, And Native Is No Exception.” All Music Guide.
