  • So deep, amazing, he's reaching the purple cloud in this song maaan

  • Much prefer this version...especially the instrumentation.

  • Amazing seriously :)

  • Love this song!!!!

  • I love this song. <3

  • thanks for posting this

  • best version by far

  • ¿Donde puedo conseguir la instrumental? Gracias, bonito canal.

  • I HATE the remix one. why couldn't they just put this one out? Made me loose a little respect for the band...

  • One republic, Coldplay and radio head. 3 best bands ever!

  • /watch?v=Ppu_QjdwQH0 <-- AMAZING Cover

  • this audio version plus the vocals from the timbaland version: pure epicness

  • Jabbawockeez

  • I love it :')

  • I like this version better.

  • @savitorres me toooooooo :)

  • i like this version better than the remix... not a big fan of the clicking noise... w/e the name of that instrument is

  • This isn't OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder's voice.

    See this /watch?v=BScjF5zWOsU

  • I love the revolver sounds added with the beat at the begining. Makes a nice combo.

  • Oops.. Thisss*

  • Woooow~~!! -3 loooove thudded

  • ii <<33 duss sonqq !!!!!

  • THIS IS NOT FUCKING ORIGINAL VERSION!!! -.- Why u must write that u don't know...

  • @97DaCa this is the original version , bfore timbaland did the remix

  • @deadworms Nah this is their remix of original version b4 the timbashit did remix.Look at their website.

  • @deadworms I believe this song is from a spoof video by Aaron Platt, this definitely isn't Ryan Tedder's voice.

  • @MystiqStar IS NOT VIOLA!!! IT'S A CELLO!!! :D

  • always thought this was the better version. I found them before they were discovered and timbaland took over. - _ -

  • My favourite version, i remember this came out when i was about 13.

  • Dear bullies

    See that boy you made fun of for reading a book? After that he committed suicide

    See that girl you called fat? She is starving herself.

    See that old man you just made fun of cause of the ugly scars? He fought for our country.

    See that young boy you made fun of for crying?His mother is dying

    Re post this if you are against bullying. I bet 95% of you won't.

    Your life is probably not as harsh as theirs.

    If it is... definitely re post :) help them out

  • Thank goodness Apoligize with out Timberland. They ruin the song in my opinion even though they did get One Republic exsposed

  • I do prefer this arrangement over the remix with Timbaland. Even though he did expose this track and make it a success.

  • this was on the 17th wife movie on lifetime

  • Rien à dire sur cette music, juste qu'elle est immortelle!!

  • This isn't the original version. Original sounds different. This isn't even Ryan singing. Shame.

  • what more does Timbaland remixed than YEEE YEEE ??

  • you all have to admit timbalands version was better but the music is better on the original version

  • @MrCodguyy

    I like both versions, but this one is my favorite. Just feels more heartfelt and dramatic without the 'eh eh eh'.

  • but they should of give credit to onerepublic

  •  i like the timbaland better

  • Best Version! =D

  • I like the other version better.

  • This version sounds so much better! Timbaland was really unnecessary

  • omg i been looking for this :D

    

  • Christina Grimmie brought me here....

  • I don't get why there's a big debate over which version is better. Listening to them both back to back it doesn't sound like Timberland did anything except add a couple "yeah-ah-oh's" here and there. Otherwise i think they sound almost the exact same

  • I love the one with Timberland, don't get me wrong. However, I feel that this one is the better version. It has a certain je ne sais quoi that the other version simply lacks.

  • yes this is the song!!! the song that changed my life everywhere!! at school whoever i met it changed my personality.. now i need to do the rest.... good thing good life is on :P

  • I have an original, and the voice stays the same. This one doesn't have the same singer...

  • It's too late to apologize,too late!<3

  • This is not the original . Its not even the original music, music seems fake/computer generated. And this isn't Ryan singing here. Look up the reall version

  • First 16 seconds are brilliant!

  • maddest version!

  • @dsagacity

    Right. Youre a classic case of the "I always knew about this band since day 1" ass wipes. Fuck off kid with all your lies...

  • @ucflove Just so you know it's OneRepublic there's no space!

  • /watch?v=XCfFuZS3D1M&feature

    Watch this! This is awesome. . . . Please make this comment top

    And support me

  • theres so much emotion in the original , like when he sings...in the remix they change all this stuff:P

  • There is more emotion in this one which I like better. people seam to think timbaland wrote and done this song but I know better.

  • @wendie82 you are right:) one republic are artists

  • @SpiritConception - That's a VIOLA in the beginning..not a guitar.. :) i mean atleast that's what I hope you meant by the song description... :)

  • @MystqStar "little guitar solo", towards the end of the song ;-;

  • @MystqStar yes it was stated that there was a "little guitar solo" towards the END. not beginning. ^___^

  • @vickiiality Aaah sorry..my bad...well you know what I mean :D

  • @MystqStar its just strings in general

  • @MystqStar its at about 2:30

  • @MystqStar the band uses the "cello" not viola, but that was a couple of string instruments backing up at the beginning

  • Ryan Tedder does NOT sing this song.

    fake version.

  • @karolinka497 This is not a fake version, it's the original apologize song.

  • @karolinka497 This is the original but doesen't sing ryan tedder

  • Tyler dale irving you little spunk I remember you singing this while on the radio

  • Oh, the memories of listening to this song when it had around 300 hits on myspace...So proud of these guys, they've come so far :) Ryan Tedder, you sound so cute and little here! You have a stonger voice now, my friend. Haha I love every version of this song, but this is the best one. Thanks for posting it. :)

  • Walrus YAkAYKYKAYKAYKAYKKAYKYAYKAYKAK­YKYAKY!!!!!!!

  • OneRepublic, one of my favorite bands of all time.

  • que buen ritmo tiene XD

  • This was the best version. I don't see how the Timbaland version even got play. One Republic was better before they got mainstream-sounding.

  • I like this version...very simple but effective.

  • it's too late for timbaland to apologize

  • @asuna411 Timbaland would've apologized, but then he took an arrow to the knee.

  • @asdfm0nky oh hahahahahahahaha sooooo funnnnehhhh, 50000009999 thumbs uppp*&!!!

  • @hellsfire586 yay

  • This versions better. Hands down.

  • The orinal is better then the one ft. timberland

  • I like this version a LOT better!!

  • This beat is sick! Thumbs up!

  • i hate how this song became popular after timbaland "sang" on it. this song should have been popular because its great.

  • i like this version but i think luke bryan sings this song better than anyone.. but thats just my opinion

  • Comment removed

  • way better!

  • essa versao ficou linda

  • ....this is not one republic, just saying.

  • @OfficialPaigeMacca Uh, okay. I guess it's the voices in your head, then??

  • THERE BOTH GOOD OK IDOTS

  • this is better than the remix.

  • i love both!

  • as a point of interest, the word "thug" is derived from the word "thugee" a Hindu murder cult that killed travellers in the name of the goddess shiva in her guise as the destoryer........ not that it really adds much to the debate however......

  • The word "racist" is losing its meaning because people like staycivil abuse it. Pretty soon it won't mean a goddamn thing. Don't bother arguing with him. His world is all black and white, no gray.

  • Just a few years ago, no one knew who one republic was and I was Iike one of their biggest fans...to all those idiots who said these were crappy songs...IN ....UR......FACE :P

  • BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT to BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT  Song : )

  • Both versions are good in my opinion. Both have it's uniqueness.

    The song is not just the added "eeh eeh eeh" for the difference. There are differences in the music and with the instruments.

    In addition to the above, if you listen carefully to the chorus, it is a lot more emotional with the added electronic distortion for the Timbaland version.

  • the like/dislike bar kinda looks like a wierd coloured pencil

  • orginal version is the best version

  • finaly a version without the stupid whale sounds

  • @XDelClan

    You just made my day <3

  • I remember hearing about One Republic years ago, showing them to my friends, and having them all say they didn't like their music and that they'd never be famous. Bam.

  • This one is so much better. Timbaland sounded like a dying walrus!

  • @coolmasn why even mention anything after the original... isnt that why we are here? because the original is way better... with even saying it we all know this.

  • @coolmasn duh who doesn't know that?

  • @coolmasn fuckin lold when i read that, so much spot on.

  • @Romeighla Thats why we like it, It's not supposed to be energetic.I'm pretty sure someone cheated on him in this song because he sounds restrained.If someone broke ur heart r u gonna sound energetic. Thats the problem with the timbaland version.

  • the music is louder then the singing the only bad thing

  • y is that rap or other guenres have to remix the song and take all the credit for it

  • why did one republic let everyone else fuck up there song

  • Why in hell didn't they release this version? This is better than the version avaible on iTunes, and sh*tloads better than the remix with Timbaland in it.

  • @TrainzMovieTheatre it was released... it's on youtube! Youtube is open to the majority of the public sooo it was released for public ears. Wouldn't you agree?

  • @kromjuana Sadly, no. I meant an official release.

  • Everybody look up Chestersee singing this hes amazing

  • Col

  • THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!!

  • Love this<3

  • i don't know why they didn't release this version.it so ADDICTING&GOOD!!i've already listen to it ..i don't know how many times but that just shows you that it's good,i mean you can here it for yourself and see that.you know what they say-you can't top the ORIGINAL.

  • @FightsRightsAlways It was released.

  • @gameaddict51 okay i meant on the radio.i didn't here about THIS version until a year ago.in my opinion it's better then the one with timbaland.

  • @FightsRightsAlways Better by lightyears.

  • @gameaddict51 true,very,VERY true.

  • OMG THIS ONE IS SO MUCH BETTTEER

  • @socalhorselover

    yes my brother you are so right on it

  • i like this more than the one with timbaland

  • especially the echo

    

  • Timbaland made this famous! though this one's better!

  • Love this version, thanks for posting!

    

  • this version is waaay better :)

  • When I first heard this a few days ago, I thought it was Michael Buble. What a well sung song.

  • There's another version before this one. It's closer to this one than the Timbaland version, except it isn't mixed as good as this one and the kick and snare are different, same pattern though.

  • Love this version soooo much more. I was a huge fan of this song before Timbaland came and added his little parts in

  • 23 people are with timbaland XD

  • i just like this version....none of any other versions can over it .

  • yeaah I liked much more this version...thumbs up for the ones taht could get it...it's so hard to find this version, i look for this and I just could find the timbaland version till now thank you (:

  • I like this one better because of the beat and music.. but he sings better in the One Republic FEATURING a few odd noises from Timbaland one.

  • @KillaKyle4473: He really does.

    He had more energy and feeling with Timbaland.

    In this one he sounds strained and tired.

    (Sadly I couldn't even recognize that this was him...)

  • @KillaKyle4473 If we could lift the vocals off the other timberland track and put it to this music, don't forget that ehh, ehh, ehh (lol)....I think it would perfect, at least for me:)

  • @KillaKyle4473 I want this one´s beat and the other version´s voice

  • i love this one!

  • I LIKE THIS ONE BETTER

  • i lik this one way better than the other its the first one i listened to and i fell in love ith it!

  • It should be Timbaland Presents OneRepublic.

  • love it

  • Great

  • Nothing is good as The Original.

  • i wuv the Guitar solo!!!!!! >.<

    

  • Don't they make video for this original version??

  • The best is the guitar solo <3

  • the quality is horrible, non studio version?

  • @MsLushDiva no, what i meant is that his version was picked to be played on radio. also though both versions were available for download, timbaland's version sold accounted for almost 90% of the sales. he helped onerepublic get noticed by many

  • timbaland is better

  • amazing song. original one is my favorite <3

  • Forget Timbaland; he will never be more than an overly popular, overly wealthy thug. Thanks for posting the original.

  • @rockonmadonna RACIST MUCH?

    He is not a thug. He is a Black man from Virginia who has launched or re-invigorated careers of people like Missy Elliott, Ginuwine, Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake, Aaliyah, and One Republic. He's a good producer and you should really check out Shock Value - plenty of awesome tracks.

    This original version IS better, but who was listening to it before he did a remix? Hater.

  • @staycivil i applaud u
