I ain't too sure what I believe in

And when I close my eyes
I see my whole life ahead of me

These are our hours (These are our hours)

Edge of the earth and we're touching the sky tonight

I love how throughout the video the people start disappearing from the room -- you know, going and painting, doing photography, writing on the blackboards-- doing what they want to do with their lives, until it's just Adam and Aloe Blacc in the room singing, because, that's what they did with their lives. That was their passion, how they touched the world. They didn't need to go anywhere because that's what "the rest of their lives" was all about.

Owl City must be one of the most underrated artists in music. His songs are so powerful, with meaningful lyrics and they really hype me up dancewise.

@mylifeed360

And I hope it stays this way because if his music comes out in the radio they would make him not only over rated but they would also kill the meaning to his songs

Edit:
It has been 8 months since i made this comment, and I can say now that this song no longer hurts. As someone who is in my second half of high school, this songs meaning is starting to dawn on me. This song is now an encouragement to me, and I cannot wait to see where my life take me. Thank you Owl City.

Just graduated today, June 10th, 2022, and I'm just so overjoyed to listen to this song 1 more time before the day ends. My highschool years have been a pleasure and hearing Owl City's music all throughout it has always made my day. If I have 1 regret about any of it, it would be that I never got the chance to see Owl City live. Congratulations to anyone graduating anytime and I just had to end by saying that I wish everyone, no matter who they are or what they've done, has a wonderful life that makes them who they are.

I am Graduating In BSc Hon. Mass Comm in March 2016 and this definitely the song i want to play when we throw our hats in the air.
I really came into tears when i heard this song it really touched my heart because university students (including me) all over the world have been working very hard to earn their degrees.
Owl City Rocks! And there should be no Dislike button of Owl City

This... This is the song that proves he's not a one hit wonder and is going to remain. He's a genius with music and brings about a sense of wonder that we as a species needs to hold onto.

@necroplastful

9y↑8

Geoff Roach Oh yeah? By selling his ass to the record companies? What you say was true during the OE and ATBAB days. But ever since the VERY average Midsummer station album I am getting worried that we will loose Adam Youngs genius...

@danielpiperno7814

necroplastful i know its not the best but pubblicity is pubblicity. Who remembers the good ol` fireflies days? I love adam but for me that was his golden age

@user-gu8yf2rc8i

9y↑8

necroplastful I expect the phrase "open minded" wouldn't be a part of your vocabulary. Adam Young is a creative genius, creative enough to not limit himself to one style, but every few albums to try something a little different. None, I repeat, none of his music is average. No matter what Adam does, no matter what style he decides to use, it always becomes the best of it's class. It's the artists that stay the same, that never change or re invent themselves... those are the artists who lack the creative genius. Those are the ones that fade away, and disappear. Adam isn't one of those artists, and Adam is only getting bigger in popularity because of that. Adam Young's golden age hasn't passed... I think were in it, and going to remain in it for a while.

@zenyray

9y↑6

YES! Agree to you on so many levels. Fans always see him as different each album because he always tries to reinvent his sound, explore new tools, and jump off into the unknown. He takes his risks, and that makes one a true artist.

@necroplastful

9y↑2

Yeah but I know for a fact whenever you read the credits for TMS that he did not write all of his tracks. I am open minded but not an idiot neither. I don't mind Adam experimenting new shit but even when a band experiments new stuff they try to keep the essence of what makes them themselves alive. And I feel that we don't have that in tracks like Verge, Gold (his worst song ever by an insane longshot), I'm coming After You and a few more... At least I know for sure Mobile Orchestra will have at least one awesome song being This Isn't The End so I will wait and see.

This was the song me and my wife played after we a got married and walked out of the venue to... such incredible memories..
Like so many, I’ve been surfing though my older faves and re-stumbled across the Gem that is Owl City. There was always something special about the music, how Adam captures the best life has to offer in such an inspiring way. Makes me want to squeeze the Joy out of life. Hang in there all, the joy this guy protrudes and sings about can only be found in the one who created it all. God. Look to Him now more than ever in these sad times. There is always hope :) Thanks Adam for bringing joy and beauty into the world. I hope you continue one day, the world needs it.

I'm a proud Owl City citizen. Because in Owl City, you have Rainbow Veins. Dreams Don't Turn to Dust, and you rise your head up to Alligator Sky to watch the Meteor Shower. You ride in a Hot Air Balloon, and greet the Sky Diver of Umbrella Beach. During the night, Fireflies flit about under the Vanilla Twilight sky. You should visit sometime. If you're lucky, you'll see the Strawberry Avalanche, far away from The Real World.

His song have MEANING to them and that's what makes a great artist to me. He writes all of his songs and puts his feelings and emotions into them. That's why people can connect with his music and it can encourage you and modaivate you. To me that is being a TRUE artist and being talented. But that's just my opinion! :)

+Christina Young I agree with you %100 I also really like how he did this video it has a really good making to it. he did the beginning in black and white and showed people of different races but they were all black and white in other words they are same. later it goes to color with everyone and their differences all partying together they don't care that anyone is different and the songs lyrics are great they talk about a bunch of different stuff and you can take a lot of different meanings from this song but for mine he's taking about going forward together one humanity, no races, we are the same in our different ways and we can be on the verge of that being a reality.

From the moment this song came out I’ve been so excited for my senior year, to finally have my moment out on the verge and it just hurts. Everything I’ve been looking forward to has been ruined.

So if anyone come across this comment who is in the same situation as me, let’s just take a minute to grieve and acknowledge the pain.
