Most singers sing about the lows of life. They sing about drug addictions, sexual promiscuity and the consequences, money, and other fleeting sources of happiness. however, I love Owl City because Adam sings about the true source of happiness. Joy. His music emanates with joy. It is impossible to not have lifted spirits after listening to his melodies. You might have a different opinion (regarding your religious beliefs etc), but I truly believe that Adam Young has an anointing form God on his music to bring joy to people. In this world where darkness, fear, and depression are everywhere, Owl City truly is a city on a hill; a bright shining light in the midst of the music industry.

Aaron Thompson The thing I love about Owl City is that he writes songs about what he feels and also personifies a lot of inanimate things to make them feel what he thinks they might be feeling. He also has done songs where he felt alone and heartbroken so we too can relate but also feel lifted from the hurt. He’s loved and lost but still despite that, he creates music that people love and appreciate. It’s timeless in my opinion and I’ve been listening to him for almost 9 years. And... I’ll listen to Adam’s music until the day I die. I’m sure plenty others feel the same as I do :)

You're the sky that I fell through And I remember the view whenever I'm holding you The sun hung from a string Looking down on the world as it warmed over everything Chills run down my spine as our fingers intwine And your sides harmonize with mine Unmistakably I can still feel your heart Beat fast when you dance with me We got older and I should have known (Do you feel alive?) That I'd feel colder when I walk alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay (Bombs away Bombs away) Circle me and the needles moves gracefully Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall Wherever you go, if my heart was a house you'd be home It makes me smile because you said it best I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the west Flower balm perfume, all my clothes smell like you Cause your favorite shade is navy blue I walk slowly when I'm on my own (Do you feel alive?) Yeah, but frankly I still feel alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay (Bombs away Bombs away) Circle me and the needles moves gracefully Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall Wherever you go, if my heart was a house you'd be home If my heart was a house, you'd be home
