American pop rock band from Colorado, OneRepublic have finally unveiled the third version of music video directed by Chris Sims for the second single "Secrets" from band's latest second studio album, "Waking Up." It follows a girl who is waiting for her love interest in a restaurant. A live performance scene, featured on the previously-premiered clip, is also included in it. That means the random movie scenes have been replaced by slightly less random scenes that actually involve some of the band members, but the rest of the video is the same.
The music video's first appearance on German TV was on October 16, 2009. It shows the band playing their instruments and Lead singer Ryan Tedder singing. Furthermore, it features scenes from the film "Zweiohrküken." There is also a second version of the video, which was actually a promo for the premiere of the sixth season of TV series "Lost." This version has takes from the original video, with the band playing on a studio, mixed with scenes from the series. "We used strings and some organic hip hop drums. Probably the most fun to play in our set as well," bassist Brent Kutzle commented on the song.
The string-heavy ballad song rocketed up the German and Austrian airplay charts and as of October 27 has hit No.1 on the iTunes chart in Germany. The song was released in the US iTunes Store on November 3, 2009. The song has had moderate success, staying at the top of the iTunes Rock chart for the week following its release. The song was also included in a promotional video for the upcoming third season of "In Plain Sight" of USA Network. The song was recently featured in the end of the 14th episode from the third season of "Gossip Girl" titled "The Lady Vanished."
