***"Apologize" by Timbaland***

[Silas(envoy)]

Hey fp

Apologize by timbaland is a great song heh?
besides his distant yells its pretty potent. Two things i wanna point out. The music video is totally pointless. they drummer is bashing on his drums wen one can clearly hear other noises. One of the only things that we can be assured of is that that dude is singing..... im looking to get a hold of new more real sounding orchestras and choirs like theirs, any ideas how to make them sound betta or more real or both?
but on the upper side that little technique of layering a beatbox line jus under the main drum is a sick idea. any tellz me wasup.

if you listen to the original track by the band, youll notice that its hardly changed apart from the introduction, not the bands best track by far either, im not a fan of timbaland though to be fair. overrated by people who dont really know the craft of producing.

[TonyV]

some day i want to be overrated so i can make hits and be on top of the charts all the time

[FenixOZ]

he didnt produce that song, its identical to the original, they just used his name, and he fiddled around with the introduction. pure marketing.

[Silas(envoy)]

Hell na i refuse to believe that. so wat ur saying is besides the intro, its the exact same song as before.

no it really isn't the exact same song, timbaland added his drums, the lead vocal was re-recorded, and they took out an instrument I think it was guitar, but don't quote me on that, I haven't heard the original in a while.

[Silas(envoy)]

can u hook me up with a place of the original track? much appreciated.

hey guys, that song is by one republic. All timbaland did is add a drumbeat to it and put it on his album which meant that a lot of people heard it.....had he not done that the song would have not done well at all. Timbaland just brought it into the limelight.
