38. OneRepublic - Wherever I Go (dark red)

Why? Just last era they had a massive smash that is Counting Stars and a platinum album. The song even hit 1 Billion views. Something's off.

Because the music industry has jacked the way songs chart now.

Unless it repeats the same word a thousand times in the song it won't be good enough for 2016 trashy radio hits.

It's been a like two days. Other than the song being generic and repetitive, just because a song doesn't instantly hit number one, that doesn't mean it's a "flop". When will people realize this? Look at Just Dance by Gaga for example and also most of the most iconic songs in music didn't crack top ten, ever.

I said flopping, not flopped. Meaning the song is currently on state of being a flop. I am not writing it off already. I understand your point but currently it is flopping.

I think you're just too quick to use that word, the living manifestation of instant gratification and holding artist's to too high of a standard. 

If you don't have shadows you're not standing in the light.

I just don't think they're getting the right promo for it. I know they went on jimmy fallon and the voice, but most people haven't really heard it. I haven't been hearing it on the radio here.

The title is so FOTP Battlegrounds :toofunny:

But anyway, i'm not surprised. They are literally remembered for one song that was actually a remix by Timbaland. Apologize right? 

OH WAIT. They had the Counting Stars song too.

There's a new single ? :duck: 

 

evidently, there's a lack of marketing based on these comments lol

but also food for thought,

The first two singles off of their last album, Native, flopped too. 

It might just take them a few songs to find a hit

I love OneRepublic to death, been a huge fan since Dreaming Out Loud, but their new single just isn't as good as their older sh*t :emma:

Well we know quality doesn't indicate whether or not something gets placed on the charts (rococococcococo) 

i honestly think it's just been a bit too long since their last piece of work and they struck lucky with Native
