Not only is Ryan Tedder the lead singer of one of the most internationally well-known bands out there, but he is a brilliant songwriter too. The massive hits he’s written range from Beyonce’s “Halo”, Leona Lewis’ “Bleeding Love," and Adele’s “Rumour Has It”. His band OneRepublic is widely known for songs such as “Apologize”, “Counting Stars," and “Secrets," all of which were written by Ryan Tedder himself.
