Hello and this is Emily reporting live to you from the inside of my bedroom, where I have made the amazing rediscovery of the internet connection.
Okay. Serious news now. I came here for a reason.
As you all should know (or will now know), OneRepublic is probably one of my favourite bands to exist... EVER! A few weeks ago I found out that they released a new album called 'Native', and so that is what this post is about.
I went and bought the Deluxe Edition of the album (because I like all the bonus acoustic songs) and it is probably one of the greatest decisions of my life. This album is inspiring and absolutely beautifully composed, which is a magnificent combination.

It's been a hard decision to make, choosing my top three songs off the album, but when it all boils down to it, there is just no arguing with these three great song.
#3 is Burning Bridges (It was at a 1 point win over Something I need)
#2 is Counting Stars, because I adored that song since the first time I heard it
And, coming in at #1, is Preacher. This song is my favourite, and I wouldn't even be able to tell you why if you asked.
All in all, the album is definitely one to buy, and I give it a 9½ out of 10. (The other half was lost when I had to go to the ends of the earth to buy a hard copy. Being in a small town is the worst.)
If you're interested in having a look-see at these guys, you can find them on Twitter, and their Official Website. And I sincerely suggest that EVERYBODY go and buy their album off iTunes. You will not regret it.
Also, to make this post even better, I have some more good news. OneRepublic are coming to Australia! They'll be playing a few capital city shows, which should be extremely exciting. I am definitely planning on going. Tickets for that go on sale October 3, and they're playing at Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland and Wellington in early November.
Happy Listening,
-Em Xx
