Best New songOneRepublic — No Vacancy
Posted by LetsLoop on April 27, 2017, 8:20 pm It's only been 6 months since their last album, Oh My My, but @OneRepublic are already back with a new single. No Vacancy is the lead single to their upcoming 5th album, which is due later this year.In an extremely candid interview with Billboard, frontman Ryan Tedder discusses his recent mental health issues and the impact that has had on his songwriting process:
"I've thrown all the rules out -- if a song feels good and if my two-year-old kid requests it every single day for a month, it's probably a good song. No Vacancy is pretty much coming out because my kids have requested it pretty much every day for the last three months.
It's the poppiest thing we've ever done -- I struggled with it at first. I was like, "Man, this is so pop, maybe I should give it to somebody else." And then the Stargate guys were like, "You're insane. You're singing it, you sound great on it, it's a OneRepublic record. Stop overthinking it." I wrote it thinking about my kids -- you have all the space in your life and then you have kids, and that last little hole that you have in your life is completely full. The concept, to me, came from such an internal place that I was like, "You know what? I don't care if this is the poppiest thing we've ever done. It feels good, and I want to roll with it." For the first time ever, I'm embracing the idea of pop and going all the way with it."
