OneRepublic and I Am Number Four (Adele)

Today I have music for you by OneRepublic. Now what I love about this song is how rock n' roll it sounds while also being a very modern sound. There are elements that are in sync with the usual style of OneRepublic, softer sounds and melodies. However, this song has so many great moments of a heavier and crazier rock sound. There is a rougher tone to Ryan Tedder's voice and he even gets to a growl during the chorus.There is a heavy bass drum beat that serves as the heartbeat of the song and that certain kind of intensity and energy you get from this beat would be entirely lost from the song without this heartbeat. It think this song showcases a different side of Ryan Tedder's voice and I thoroughly enjoy that. Today's instrumental song became extremely famous with the release of the movie I Am Number Four. This song has actually  been done by Adele and is what put her on the radar of American music. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
