as a producer i understand very much so... i wouldnt really bother with an instrumental and acapella until one of my songs are so old they could be used in newer fresher ways. fireflies has become a childhood song to a lot of people including me, naturally i think a lot of us all want to sample this song lmao
You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep 'Cause they fill the open air And leave teardrops everywhere You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare 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 A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread) 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) 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 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)

Why Is It So Hard To Fall Asleep Will Someone Tell Me Why Please Staying Up Late Is Very Bad For Health & Don't Let The Chance Walk Away Bcs When I'm In School No Matter How Much I Wanna Sleep I Cannot Sleep
What about this gives you minecraft vibes? I dont mean that in a rude way either, im genuinely curious. Was this a favorite song of yours at the time you were big into minecraft, or is it something about the song that reminds you of minecraft?
@@Gelato__33i think it probably has to do with their age when they played minecraft. also, a lot of minecraft youtubers used "cipher" by kevin macleod as their outro song, and it sounds similar to this song
I really wana see homocides I really wana see moma cry I don’t care if the opps die May you please come outside you can run and hide Yeah im come and slide

the chord progression at the chorus is so fucking good
I wonder why this instrumental came out last year, when the song came out in 2009.

@Fender5 nah the music video released in Dec 2009
@Ranger5 The song 'Fireflies' along with the album came out on 2009. It reached #1 at Oct 2009 :)
@Ranger5 no it didn’t. It was released in 2009 in the album ‘Ocean Eyes’ which was also released in 2009. Get your research right.
They actually created the instrumental after finishing the song
this instrumental gives off a frutiger aero vibe
Why people say music died in 2009 is beyond me. Like, this exists. Guess they missed it.
This is amazing!💚👍 I love the instrumental so much.
Thank you so much for this!
I can't stop repeating it.
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare
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
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread)
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)
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)
