ONE REPUBLIC ONE BEST BAND EVER!!

[Pongpatification]

Bieber rocked his head !!

[345Ronaldo2]

[SDADSDSFDSGDA]

At 2:15 that's what I call skill catching that guitar!! The only bad things was seeing Bieber at the end!

[leeying1993]

i agree that this song is extremely difficult to sing live but i think he still did an awesome job in overall. keep it up, onerepublic! :)

[mbeinkemtaji]

lol justin bieber rocking his head

[MrSalvatore1974]

Sounds not as better then in the studio. Buy that'd life for ya...

[ashiinsane90]

my favourite song of ama!

[fabianect4691]

2:16

[orpdreamer1]

this safeway dude really need to sort out your priorities. HE CAN SING DAMMIT! at least he doesn't lip-sync or use auto-tune. and he's a BRILLIANT SONGWRITER UNLIKE SAFEWAY.

[Nessarocks100]

I thought they were the best of the night too!!!

[MissAusniaFountain]

this is amazing <3

[rafsta001]

There's something so special about One Republic and The Fray....perhaps it's they stay true to themselves and ooze originality! <3

[sarapngxueyunn]

awesome singing. pure excellence

[sarapngxueyunn]

wow. he sings damn well!! this song is SO DIFFICULT to sing. it's so fast and your pitch has to go up and down like a rollercoaster

[XelxZlender]

OneRepublic - Good Life ( Live Walmart Soundcheck )>>listen to this!ryan sounds perfect!!!

[hotrajsymonds09]

the most awesome song of the year,but they lost in AMA,just because they didn't have energy level in their original version,if they had recorded their original song with the same energy level they are performing here then they would've have won for sure

[hotrajsymonds09]

If he would have sung with this energitic level in his original album,then definately they must've won the award

[911friedchicken]

This is a really hard song to

Sing live, but honestly he sang it great! I like them live better than the radio! Thumbs up for one republic!!

[thegunners2011]

great job

[breezway05]

Onerepublic and Chris Brown own this night!!

[cooltobeemily]

2:15 watch the guy catch the guitar... i say he fell xD

[wylieeastful]

@cooltobeemily haha he so fell

[njchrissiface]

I thought Ryan sang the song with high energy . It's a great song with a lot of meaning for the group and probably for most entertainers who actually have a very "good life" because of us fans. One Republic rocks!

[ubict83]

hes like singing after did a sprint for a mile

[chiu23456]

I'm a big fan of onerepunlic, but honestly I don't like their live so much, he always sings like running out of breath, although there are some songs that he did sing well at live , like stop and stare and apologize, maybe he's just not good at quick songs

[nuriahkmazin]

imho it is not really that bad, maybe not great as usual it, but the song is not ruined...just another version of good live performance from one republic

[cinthia717]

Me encanta , buen grupo

[UFgstor51]

Im Gonna Say One Thing, This is good singing its a hard song to sing, and it wasent sung bad. You People saying they Are "Bad" are all wrong you couldent do this any day and Atleast they are Real and Dont Use auto-tune. Anyway Why The Hell Are You Here If Your Gonna Insult Them, You Dont Like Them. Then Leave! OneRepublic.....Best Band EVER.

[iwaa2009]

pretty good version of the song, especially 'cause it's in high range and it's fast and ryan is jumping and running back and forth :D

[anchee7]

some people just don't understand how HARD it is to sing THIS song live.. :\ I'm not disappointed at all. seen them live a year ago and it was the best concert I've ever seen!

[ArtiDiana19]

i cant believe ryan sang like that live.. love the songs but this is a bit disappointing.

[Cheerbee08]

Ooooh my good!!!! Saw my pic on the screen :)

Love OneRepublic, they're are the best ♥

[Peruannita1988]

I love this song...but LIVE??...this guy sounds like he is singing from the bathroom....I think he was like in a hurry...or too excited cuz his voice was terrible..it wasn't the best performance of the night :P

[Sax4Him]

I'm sure even rockstars get nervous on live TV in front of their industry peers, then add adrenaline, a tough song, etc. etc...

[Lady469WV]

BEST OF THE NIGHT!! I LOVE<3 YOU ONE REPUBLIC!! :)

[MissPatatee]

HE EVEN SAID HIMSELF HE NEEDED OXYGEN. WE ALL KNOW IT'S A DIFFICULT SONG. maybe he had some issues idk but RESPECT to him because he does ALOT of great songs. You guys have to SEARCH before you talk because on other events or live sessions, he is AMAZING. so shut your trap and enjoy real music.

[safeway1111]

OMG! He's terrible live. Honestly, he can not sing. awful

[repotcard3]

@safeway1111 look up them singing Live somewhere else, This was just a bad night. . .

[safeway1111]

@repotcard3

Actually I did. And honestly, most of their performances are just bad...

[safeway1111]

@repotcard3

And I have to add that really TALENTED artist do NOT have bad nights...

[repotcard3]

@safeway1111 Well. He is talented, to me and An Amazing songwriter.

[anchee7]

@safeway1111 maybe you can sing it

[safeway1111]

@anchee7

No, I can not sing but i know it and i'm not trying to sing. Ryan can't sing too and he shouldn't do that. Sorry, but that's true.

[anchee7]

@safeway1111 I've seen them live, and, hell yeah, he can..

[safeway1111]

@anchee7

really? coz every single Onerepublic's performace i've seen was pretty weak...

[repotcard3]

@safeway1111 Well. Actually, TALENTED artist's have Some bad performances. Like, Beyonce, Alicia Key's and Adele have all had a few mess up's, Doesn't mean they aren't talented because they clearlyare.

[safeway1111]

@repotcard3

So it means they are NOT THAT TALENTED as people think they are

(don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that they are bad, but probably bit overrated). Sorry, but there are bands which ALWAYS are great live, INCREDIBLY AMAZING and PERFECT. unfortunately they are just not that famous as these stupid pop "artist" who even CAN'T sing live(for example like Rihanna or Katy Perry with stupid, meaningless songs)

[repotcard3]

@safeway1111 Katy Perry has a nice voice, Especially at the AMA's 2011. Anyway's, you cannot say that all 'Pop' artist's are untalented. Adele is very talented and Beyonce. They have wonderful, real, voices.

And some Rock and Alternative artist's have bad performances. Unless you've seen every rehearsal and performance of the band's you like then that Statement is invalid.

No one is perfect and no Performance's are COMPLETELY perfect.

[pikatrainer]

at 2:16 the person who catches the guitar falls watch closely

[PrincessVee94]

regardless, still love them <3

[amc17bears]

Sorry, but for ME personally I thought this was the best of the night. At least these guys did not have the 'big production numbers' like other 'atists'.... with lights, dancers and all the other gimmicks they use. Some of them suck live, do not play any instruments, and probably do not write their own material either.

I would rather listen to these guys any day, at least they are the real deal. They do not need the fancy crap, they let the talent and music speak for them instead.

[repotcard3]

@amc17bears The best? I'm a Huge OneRepublic fan but this performance had more flaws than Usual. Did you see Maroon 5's Performance. That wasn't some Huge, Huge ordeal and he sound pretty good, A little mono-tone, but good,

[amc17bears]

@repotcard3 not a big Maroon 5 fan, and no not everyone had the 'broadway show' type numbers.. I might be in the minority but I still prefer a band that comes out and actually plays some instruments  and sings.Those without all the fancy dancers, light shows,doodads, and all the **add ons** some of them need. Heck Ryan Tedder probably wrote material,produced, or worked with at some point, for a number of those who were at that show.

Just mho.

[repotcard3]

@amc17bears Yeah, I see what you mean. Ryan Tedder is a great musician and songwriter.

[amc17bears]

@repotcard3 I recently looked up a list of those artists he wrote/produced for, I was astounded by how long it was. Not to mention how varied the artists were.

He seems to be the 'go to' guy for songs these days. Not sure how he has time for all that,actually. But he does seem to have the 'golden touch'.

[repotcard3]

@amc17bears Yeah, I looked him up a while ago and saw all that, He wrote the Two most played song's in radio history. He definitely had the touch.

[gonzalone15]

@amc17bears

estoy totalmente de acuerdo contigo, tengo 15 años, los escucho desde los 12, para mi son lo maximo, agradables. no son editados como las demas porquerias populares que se presentan, su estilo es limpio. la voz de Ryan es perfecta, a ver si los demas se encargan de una cancion tan complicada como esta...

[soccerqueen226]

they arent very good live

[ornella815]

@soccerqueen226 screw you!!

[awm12321]

This song is ridiculously hard to sing live

[NidaJafri]

People have good days and bad days - they're only human.. <3 them

[MrElephantglitter]

Oh my gosh. I have seen them live, and he usually sounds so much better.
