I think we've got enough information to warrant a new thread.
OneRepublic's been in the studio, finishing work on their third album, which may be released as soon as this summer (I'd imagine late summer if it's even that soon). Though a lead single hasn't been chosen yet, one of the songs, "Life In Color," is being used (apparently in demo form) for a new Ralph Lauren ad campaign.

Cannot wait for a new album from them, but I'm not feeling 'Life in Color' at all.

I'm interested. Let's see if they continue their one song per year strategy.

@onerepublic: "1st single will be UP tempo. we know that much. ballads and mid tempos come easier for us- a truly great uptempo is the hardest song 2 write"

I love them, and can't wait. I bought their debut and I'm still in love with some of the songs. A great album. The second I didn't like as much, hopefully this will be like the former.

SiriusXM Hits 1 just spun "Life In Color," and they replied to my tweet questioning whether or not it was a demo confirming that it was in fact the final studio version. The DJ didn't have any information about an adds date or digital release, though, so I'll refrain from starting a single thread until then.
(Note: I know this because they tweeted it--I didn't get to hear it.)

I heard "Life In Color" on Sirius a little while ago and came to see if there was any info on it. I don't get why they even have the song or are playing it if it isn't the single. lol But I like it! I'd love to hear the song again.

I'd love to hear the song again. Apparently the DJ (Mikey Piff) is friends with 1R and so he's spinning the track early.

Here's the single cover for lead single "Feel Again:" It's supposedly going to some European radio stations today, so hopefully we'll hear it soon.

Shouldn't it have the band name, at least?

What are the sales for their albums? The first one sold 800k+, and the second one sold around 350K, I believe. Here's a radio rip for "Feel Again" It's alright. I don't like it nearly as much as "Apologize" or "All the Right Moves."

I like it. I definitely prefer "All The Right Moves" but I think this single will be much more immediate for radio. It should be an easy hit at Hot AC, probably won't do too bad at CHR either.

My fav single from them for sure. The chorus is so awesome.

Just announced on Twitter that the new album's called Native! No release date mentioned yet, though I've read November 13 from at least one source (I think it'll be later than that, though).

Haven't heard it yet but I love both albums (the sophomore much more) but I'm excited!

I heard "Feel Again" in full on the radio the other day, and I am in love. I had only listened to the iTunes clip so I didn't get the full effect. I know it sounds like "Dog Days Are Over" in spots, but it works.

Maybe that means they are working to make an even better album. At least, I hope so. I have been big supporters of this band since day 1, although Ryan Tedder SUCKS live.

ugh that sucks, I'm really looking forward to this album! Maybe they feared getting lost in the shuffle this holiday season, which probably would happen. I wouldn't be surprised if they push another single before the album.

If you were a REAL supporter, then you would know that Ryan DOESN'T suck live Thank you. In a band setting he really does have to strain at times but when he does more acoustic sets like he did when he was just beginning, he shines. The Look alone proves that :'(

The Look alone proves that :'( EVERY time I have seen him on TV, he was pitchy and straining so I don't know what else to call that, sorry. I love when you dramatic people on here pull that "real fan" nonsense. I paid my hard-earned money for their two CDs and sweated them out, soo...kill that noise.

I honestly don't know why he has sounded bad in so many TV performances. I saw them live in person once and they were pretty good. He's not the best vocalist I've ever seen, but it was definitely better than the videos I had watched.
Disappointed about the album being delayed. :( I love Feel Again and was looking forward to hearing more.

When Ryan was doing solo work he was a better vocalist. Once he formed OneRepublic his vocal work went down because he went from the more Country vocals to the Rock vocals. He has turned himself into a studio musician when it comes to the big band sound.
