Owl City

Bot at this time, but he did have a girlfriend back in 2010 that moved to California. Also, he reportedly dated Breanne Duren a while back. If this is true, it didn't work out, but they are still on friendly terms.

You would not believe your eyes if 10 billion kangaroos came out of your closet and ate your food. They probably will eat you to, which means you'll be dead and gone. You will be missed, so you better watch out.

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth is smelly. I haven't taken a shower in about five weeks today. But it's okay, I still wear my cologne.

Cause I get a thousand hugs from both of my great grandmas. They are so nice they make me soup. A person beneath my feet. A creepy guy on my bed. A fork and knife hanging by a thread.

I'd like to make my self believe that planet Earth is smelly. I haven't taken a shower in about five weeks today. But it's okay, I still wear my cologne.

Keep that seat open all the way. Please buy me a rabbit. It makes my house more comfortable. Please buy me a rabbit. Why am I tired of eating eggs? Please buy me a rabbit. They're really yellow I think I'm dead.

T-ten billion kangaroos. They ate my entire house. It wasn't nice, they made fun of me. I started to run away. Kangaroos are not so nice. They look so cute, but you're just their prey.

I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth is weird. It's hard to say I'd rather eat a rat than brush my teeth, but they look cute I want one as a pet.

If you meant 'How was Adam Young's childhood' or 'What was it like?' then sadly, there isn't much information released to the public. However, he often refers fondly to his teen years and his family.

Nope! But according to his band mate's twitter, Breanne Duren (sings female vocals in 'The Saltwater Room'), Adam has a girlfriend named Ann. But they broke up and he wrote a song for her on his new album All Things Bright And Beautiful.

-Will

(Owl City fan since '08!)

shes not from owl city

yes she is. she's the girl who sings on saltwater room, and tours with Adam young as part of his live band. from owl city's wikipedia page: "Young is joined by Breanne Düren on several tracks; the most noted being "The Saltwater Room". Owl City's live band consists of Breanne Duren (background vocals/keyboards), Matthew Decker (drums), Laura Musten (violin), and Hannah Schroeder (cello)."

I'm not sure how old she is, but if I had to guess, I'd say around 24 - the same age as Adam Young.

she is 22.

No. Adam Young is from Owatonna, Minnesota.

Adam Young from the band Owl Citys middle name is Randall.

The song is about Adam not wanting to let go of his childhood memories but he knows he has to grow up and move on, but he can still be childish thats why he "saves a few and keeps them in a jar." Etc.

Owl City uses a Micro Korg, along with a full sized midi keyboard (Korg Kontroll),Studio and prerecorde material come form Reason 4 as said in an interview. His Computers are macbooks.For his vocals, he most probably uses a condenser microphone as that is ideally what you should use for vocals, his vocals are also very compressed.

Adam Young of Owl City has never changed his name, or that of the project, but he has worked on several side projects such as Sky Sailing and Port Blue. For more information see the Adam Young page on Wikipedia.

Adam's email address is not released to the public, but he can be reached via the contact page of the Owl City Music or Adam Young Music websites.

Fireflies lyrics:

You would not believe your eyes

If ten million fireflies

Lit up the world as I fell asleep

Cause they'd fill the open air

And leave tear drops everywhere

You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare

Chorus:

I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

Cause everything is never as it seems

Cause I'd get a thousand hugs

From ten thousand lightning bugs

As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head

A sock-hop beneath my bed

The disco ball is just hanging by a thread

(Thread, thread, thread...)

Chorus:

I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

Cause everything is never as it seems

(When I fall asleep)

Leave my door open just a crack

(Please take me away from here)

Cause I feel like such an insomniac

(Please take me away from here)

Why do I tire of counting sheep

(Please take me away from here)

When I'm far too tired to fall asleep?

To ten million fireflies

I'm weird cause I hate goodbyes

I got misty eyes as they said farewell

(They said farewell)

But I'll know where several are

If my dreams get real bizarre

Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

(Jar, jar, jar...)

Chorus:

I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns, slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

Cause everything is never as it seems

(When I fall asleep)

I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns, slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

Because my dreams are bursting at the seams.

There is not a particular amount of metaphors in 'Fireflies' because the song itself can be interpreted as a single metaphor.

of Firefly

Fireflies by Owl City is an electronic song that is also considered a form of synth-pop.

Yes.

OWL CITY"s Adam young is christian. YAY!!! =) <3

He's either Christian or Catholic, but most likely he's Christian.

Actually, Roman Catholicism is a subdivision of the Christian religion. ~WREmix

There is much controversy over this matter, but the two possibilities are these:

1. He wrote it to honor a dead girlfriend. (It has since been proven that his girlfriend never died.)

2. He wrote it as a tribute to his girlfriend (Ann Marie) whom he missed while on tour.

He is adorable! I love him! And he is such a good musician! him: http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/xxdearmiaxx/default/adam-young--large-msg-125408809977.jpg

Hot Air Balloon is just a cute little song about Adam and a girl building/taking a ride in a hot air balloon. I don't think there is any deep meaning behind the song, it's just for fun :)
