Adam Young (Owl City) on LIVESTREAM - Piano at Tilburg Street - 16/09/2011 - V-HD)

[@AmmojerseyRTA]

Imagine the poor souls that walked past him and didn't even know it.

[@needheartranken]

exactly hahaha

[@anthonyloughlin8072]

Cause 99% of the general public don't care at all. That's why it's even easier for me to busk.

[@krankmaker]

Nobody has a clear idea what legend is playing those pianos

[@vesper180]

I love how he is so shy and quiet. I hope he never changes! :D (and yes I have replayed this many times)

[@marissahmusic]

Awwwww, yes, some might find it boring, but I think it's adorable and also fascinating. It's inspiring for us shy people everywhere that he is able to overcome his fears and anxiety to share his music with the world :D

[@vesper180]

Exactly! It's not easy being shy and you are totally right about him being an inspiration!

[@clarenceguardiano2968]

Comment from 8 yrs 😆.... Yep, an introvert personality right there

[@NicoleeneLPS]

I would go insanely hyper if I was walking down the street and spotted Adam Young playing a piano.. Lol

[@meadowghoul4273]

I'd flip out and beg for a picture and attempt to hug him lol

[@skywolf1856]

NY NY same lmao I would freak out

[@vivian8707]

OML SAME

[@ANoteToSelf]

Stop it... He's so excited about pianos..... He's so adorable..... :'(

[@ANoteToSelf]

He's so adorable and I can't take my life!! liek if you cryy errytimee

[@TheGrapes156]

he ish awesome so exited about pianos!

[@ANoteToSelf]

***** hahaa I meant that I couldn't handle it XD

[@westonkenyonmusic]

Oh yeah, pianos excite us piano guys.

[@Riannetekaat]

Jeejj!! THAT'S ME! Saying we're going to his concert tonight. Awesome to see this movie. So funny that nobody recognized him. I was blindsided and didn't had the courage to ask to go on a picture with him. It's a shame! Love Adam Young!

[@needheartranken]

what time in the video?

[@SamanthaAdalia]

+Rianne te Kaat Awww!! Hoping you'll get another chance to meet him again&take a pic with him :DDD

[@Ninjetika]

4:35 :D

[@oliverhartfree8858]

Luckiest human ever. Adam is a gift from god :)

[@ShadowCatzz]

youre so lucky :D

[@valmcal]

Notice how Adam doesn't get any hate (that I've seen). I love that about the people who listen to his music and whatnot. This is why Owl City/Adam Young is a good influence and I hope he stays that way. :3

[@LozzieOzzzie]

You can't really 'hate' Owl City. :3

[@valmcal]

Lozzie Frenzie Exactly. ;D

[@thetrexus6988]

One does not simply..."hate" owl city

[@valmcal]

theTrexus Agreed. 100%.

[@valmcal]

@@thispenguin yeah, I remember that around when covid started. Unfortunate for such a sweet guy to get sucked into that. I specifically remember him posting something, indirectly addressing the hard times and people reacted by saying "Just say black lives matter." His audience didn't understand that speaking out about certain topics was uncomfortable for him because it went against his religion (thats at least how I understood it, as I myself am not a Christian). But from my perspective, he still wanted to offer some support to everyone and people didn't recognize that. So given the angry nature of his audience, I would agree overall that he handled it as best as he could.

[@Haiien]

so weird to see this again, i remember watching it live during a lunch break in high school almost 10 years ago

[@lidiyaafatiny]

I want to hug him.

[@youtubewhoop886]

Wow impersonators..

[@NiceKnowingYou1]

I seriously wish I could've seen this with my own eyes...

[@Shadowz2X]

Samee

[@elsaanoel]

"so many bikes" - adam young, 2011

[@hootowlsome]

i've watched this a million times & i never get tired of it. :D

[@brandonjordan5949]

i love the last song he plays

[@brandonjordan5949]

[@JoyfulSeas]

Adam Young, is my favorite artist. His music has gotten me through some difficult times. Thanks Adam for letting Jesus use you to help me and make my life that much sweeter. :*)

[@eventhorizon12]

Reminiscing with Owl City vids in Quarantine 2020! Wish I could go back in time....

[@blackfoxproductions9760]

Hope to see him in October in a concert. I always hoped to see him for many years since I was little. watching this only makes me more excited to meet him

[@flynntytonidae5631]

Which concert? On October 4th I'm going to his Anaheim concert.

[@katyaivanenko2174]

His playing is just so beautiful.

[@Angelthehedgehog1]

lovely. i have a deep respect for him because of his association with pianos. i don't know why but i've always found his pieces to be absolutely beautiful.

[@AlexTheFiction]

he's so sweet around fans. how could you possibly not fall in love with this guy. ♥

[@Claire5292]

I mean can you just imagine walking along and hearing beautiful piano music, and then all of a sudden LOOKING AND THE PIANO AND IT'S FREAKING ADAM YOUNG SERENADING YOU

[@KyoRyx]

2021 and I still love this video so much..

[@JessBijoux]

I remember watching the livestream and I was so excited to see him play in Germany. Man, these were good times. Somehow in some periods of life, I like too hear his Music over and over again and remember the concerts I have been to. It will always be magical :-)

[@secondhandworldz]

I've met him, and YES! He really is that humble haha! Still amazed by him even though it was 1,5 years ago!

[@realitynotexist]

I just can't realize this was three years ago... Time flies...

[@gracehumbles3636]

Now nearly 4... :/

[@tinatran1442]

+Grace Humbles almost five now.

[@esy53]

Almost 6, haha. And I still love him and his amazing music.

[@errbotagorapub9033]

time does flies... and so does fire..

[@hemykreb]

Seven years now

[@SumanMinz28]

The best thing about music is that it reflects the character of the composer, other than some dreamland fantasies and extraordinary observation qualities 🦉 City music reflects the most important thing which a lot of people miss to have with them, that's Humility. What an amazing guy Adam is huge respect to him. Vanilla twilight will always be my favourite ❤️ I hope he stays Young forever.

[@mylifeed360]

Little do those people knew who this man was I would lose my 💩 the only artist I would probably cry seeing because his music saved my life 🙏🏼

[@varunmodak1415]

I wish I was walking by just to meet him and tell him just that his talent is crazy and the music he makes is amazing!

[@realityloidyuki7904]

He have’s such a beautiful talent I rlly adore him & I love his music nu matter if 2020 or in the future I always going to listen to his music bc is so heart warming 💐🌏✨❤️

[@alondragarcia4069]

adam is so adorable and got alot of talent!

[@thisdeko]

he is so wholesome

[@WatercolorMush]

it's been pretty much years since i've actively followed him but i still go back to this video now and again bc he's a damn fine piano player and i remember being so happy when i was in the livestream. good memories

[@errbotagorapub9033]

Idk if its just me but as soon as the note at 5:33 played, all the memories that I have came rushing in like a flashback all the good ones and the bad ones and thats what makes me love owl city/adam young even more. When I listen to his songs it makes me sad and happy and I think it's what owl city does to people he plays your emotions like he controls it from his songs he can make you feel sad and then happy the next

[@needheartranken]

his music saved me from death . Literally . I love Owl city. I feel what you feel everytime I listen to his music . :)

[@errbotagorapub9033]

Needheart Ranken Obeñita how? Would love to hear your story men please do tell us how owl city save you...

[@needheartranken]

Oh sure :) I am 19 years old now, way back when I was 15, I started to become anxious. Panic attacks always attack me for almost like 4 times a day especially at night. There is a day when the worst attack came, I can't breathe , I am punching my chest and my heart is very very fast and strong I can feel its beat. I went to my mother and hugged her saying "Ma, Kung mamatay ko love baya taka" (Mom, If I'll gonna die today please know that I love you so much) she laughed because she thought it was just a troll because I am a normal kid , playing street games outside with no problem but when she saw me sweating a lot , she rushed me to the hospital. The doctor said I dont have any ilness, BP normal, blood count normal, and I am not even asthmatic. He said that my problem is psychological, and I am the only one who can heal it. It is a relief to know that it is psychological but still it attacks me. One day, out of curiosity what is Owl City, I bluetoothed a few songs from my friends phone to mine. A night later I was attacked and it was the worst attack. I dont know why but I played the song "If my heart was a house" and by the time Adam hit the first lines "Your the sky that I" I felt like I am floating , my breathing slowly went normal and I literally felt very very paper thin, it is so good , it feels like a kick from drugs (though I haven't tried yet haha) . And by the time the song hit the chorus my heart rate went normal from a very fast and strong state , I could even feel my heart beat when I am attacked. Since then, I loved owl city. I started downloading all his song (sorry for pirating :( , I live somewhere in the mountains of the Philippines where album is not available or costly and we dont even have credit cards to buy online but we have internet cafes where we can download T_T ) and I found that there is more magical songs there from Adam. I am a musician too so I've always looked up at Adam. After downloading the songs, every attack is just a one play to prevent . I've also discovered several Adam side projects like windsor airlift and Sky sailing that has also good music so relaxing . His music brought me to other worlds and imagination seems limitless. After I moved to another town to pursue college, the panic attacks that used to attack me suddenly vanished, but my love for Adam's works will never vanish ! :) I am typing this story panic-attack free hahaha . I am now saved , by his music. He may never know that this happened but I am a soul here who's very thankful for him.

[@errbotagorapub9033]

Needheart Ranken Obeñita wow very inspiring.... Sana makarating toh Kay Mr. Owl city lol (ik what you're thinking 😄😄😉😉 and yes yes I am pinoy) so probably I'll send this to him cheers

[@needheartranken]

Robert Bagapuro thanks for reading . :) And yeah I heard that he will have a FREE Concert this may at Taguig? Pinoy ka din pala . :D haha . hmm How will you send this to him?

[@happyismymiddlename4534]

I'm watching it again. Never gets tired. 😊 ❤ love from India!

[@brit1730]

It's sad how no one noticed who he was. If I was there, I'd freak out and want to hug him very badly.

[@FireflyProductions]

Yaaaas, he's playing "Plant Life!" Omg, he's so shy, it's adorable. I need a hug.

[@andiahmad1938]

2018... And im still playing it over and over again never get boring

[@almaspaceprogram_cz]

The third time I'm watching this, and also 3 years after I have discovered this video.

[@pedrolieksmudkips]

are you watching this too?

[@leila9733]

I'm totally in love with this video. He's the sweetest guy ever xx

[@laky2234]

Oh my!!! I can't believe that only two people knew who he was!!! Adam is great! I would have loved to be there!!!

[@05vendetta]

I'd love to hear all of his songs played on the piano like this.. So beautiful.

[@marjankwant6142]

I live in the netherlands and if i saw him walking then i would scream and cry because i love his music so much because i have never seen him live or something

[@anight6881]

very talented!

[@Jesslee522.]

The second song he plays is soooo amazing! wish i could play like that.

[@KaylaM13]

I remember watching this live. And then like literally falling more in love with him every minute.

[@krayedon]

if i ever see adam around here just walking around i'll probably just faint lol

[@Mhtthw]

thank you for such a magnificent video

[@thrombeyking]

thats awesome, he is really good at playing!!

[@otakudoug3663]

I think on the first piano he played Take Me Somewhere Nice and then on the second piano, he played Plant Life

[@WalkingOnDaStarz]

You may not have seen me but I was there when you filmed this. Don't worry I wasn't eavesdropping. I just noticed Adam on one of the pianos.

[@JennaDH13]

I love when he gets done playing absolutely amazingly on the piano at 6:33 and he's shrugging his shoulders like "it's nothing." He doesn't realize just how amazing he is.

[@sheryljoy9528]

his smile is contagious

[@blacktiger981]

adam is a huge inspiration to me!!! i love his music

[@TheKubbas]

Thank you for saving my life over and over again with your magical melodies... I don't know why I'm saying this, but really.. thank you for pulling me out of those dark, dark days into beautiful seaside serenades.

[@ginayoung4174]

He's so adorable! I love him

[@xxamutoxx123]

Adam plays it so beautifully..

[@xOwlish]

Ahh Adam is so talented!! He can play so flawlessly >~< ~so amaaazzing

[@dinglemochi3889]

There are many words to describe his music, but I like this one the best: magical.

[@xsoraxrileyx]

I find it very sad, that without knowing it, I found myself singing along to Plant Life. The best part is, it made my day. I think that I'm going to move there now. Pianos on nearly every street? I'm there. So cool! Nicely played, Adam! ^.^

[@AaronMcLaughlinMusic]

these pianos are awesome!!

[@Abigail-ly7fr]

Pretty sure I'd be totally fine if the rest of my life only consisted of me watching Adam play a piano...

[@Overcrox]

Wow...although he's playing Owl City songs, it almost sounds like a Port Blue song with the piano combined with the ambient sounds of the city. Beautiful. I wish cities in the U.S. did this. And this makes me love Adam even more.

[@Dorkygirrrl]

If adam did piano tutorials for his songs that would be amazing! *_* the first song is plant life btw

[@cayden3470]

paper tigers and plant life :3

[@bubbabitty5438]

Love the tunes he plays

[@cwolf4him952]

He plays beautifully!!! :)

[@sunainaawasthi7423]

dont know but his fingers on piano always create magic. even if its for a second or 2, i find it very beautiful and angelic. those pianos were blessed. PS: HOW DUMB those people are who do not know how holy soul just passed by them.

[@justkids2373]

6:13 notice the posters in the background

[@Rasberrylil]

Just Kids I've seen this so many times and never noticed those. That makes me so happy

[@3Dumbs]

I cry enfront pianos... :'(I love them.... PIANO EVRYWHEREEEEE!!!

[@samanthacrawford6247]

He's so cute and makes super good music

[@TheShyViolet16]

HE'S SO ADORABLE :3

[@MeltingHill]

Dude, you can tell that he is such a nice guy. Adam Young would definitely be the ultimate best friend.

[@gryphka]

I want pianos lying around the city, I would love that!!!

[@GeoffreyHammy16]

Geez.......if I walked outside in my city to see Adam Young randomly playing the piano I'd probably die of heart failure..........right after I sang along to the song. XD

[@TheToweler]

This video is so pure from the hearted

[@SusanPitman]

Even if I didn't know who Adam was... beautiful music in the streets like this make me stop in my tracks.

[@dscaamick]
