I hate that people aways complain about the lyrics making no sense. There's meaning if you care to look!
ikr? it gets really annoying. the fact that you have to put in the extra effort in order to understand the music is one of my favorite parts of this song,
SugarSpiceSatan ## If it was Rick Ross and beyonce it could have made sense to people. This is the exact reason he wrote this song, there is no way you can please everyone but before people mess you up please make your self happy.
Makes perfect sense if you were alive at the time.
If you were alive and a certain age when Rick Nelson wrote and recorded the original, you would totally understand what the lyrics say.
Clement Joel you mean when Rick Nelson wrote it, right?
and that's exactly why Adam did a cover. People/fans complained his early work was too spacey and left-field, but when he released his more grounded, "normal" pop-inspired album, everyone still complained. He realized he just can't win if he tries to do every little thing to please anyone that isn't himself.
And now he's over it with Coco Moon, and it's just so incredibly beautiful
He often gets slammed for his music and things he sings about. The line, "You can't please everyone, so you gotta please yourself," becomes very powerful.
OMG I LUV OWL CITY AND AND GRAIVTY FALLZZZ AND I C UR PROFILE PIC
He didnt write the song lol
+D Legend Yeah... I found that out later. But still :)
Adam said he didn't write songs for the public. He wrote them for himself in his basement. He didn't expect it will go out to the world.
Emily Holyoak That’s stupid and terrible why would anyone slam his music? His songs are wonderful.
I never would've known this was a cover, he added his own flare and kinda made it his own. Its great! :)
Who?
Original was by Rick Nelson
@@rajkishoresaikia6665 ooh ok
They are, if you don't know the story behind it. This song was written by Ricky Nelson, who got his start as a Teen Heartthrob. Eventually Rick decided he was tired of simply singing vapid love songs and stopped touring to focus on artistic discovery. In 1971 there was a Rock 'n Roll revival concert at Madison Square Garden that RIcky was invited to, so he went, but he realized much of his fame was that of a teenage idol, no one cared about him as a normal adult.
Thus, he wrote this song.
Maybe we don't know, but he relased this cover before "The Midsummer Station".
And for me, I'll never complain about his music as I'm so thanksfull for all the amazing songs he has made & for which I'll never be able to thanks him enough. And also as a producer I would hate people complaining about songs I've worked on hours and hours !
"You see, you can't please everyone, so you gotta please yourself."
This is a huge problem I have. I never tell people what I really want because I don't want to make anyone else mad or upset in any way.
I can relate so bad
@@sankarii.21 I made this comment two years ago and I can truthfully say that while I do still struggle with this, I've gotten better. I've learned that there are times to do whats best for you, but there are also times to do whats best for others. Its a difficult balance that's hard to work out. I'm still working on it, most people are. My heart goes out to you, and I hope you're able to find the right balance for you. It does get easier. Just don't lose yourself to make others happy 💛
Have a good night/day, stranger
@@kindakrazyfangirl9144 Thank you, I hope you too as well
God, how can someone's voice be so beautiful? ;-; Adam turns every song into gold
he turns the song gold into gold :)
I LOVE this song. When I'm sad, it makes me feel so much better.
You know, the cool thing is that I was getting bored and kind of tired of his old songs. They're still amazing, but they just weren't as amazing as before to me.
And then he comes out with THIS stuff.
This is pretty much why I'm an owl city citizen.
Dear Adam! My name is Nadia, and i'm from Russia. I have been listening to your songs since 2013 i think. I can't describe what i feel when im listening to you. You make me feel happy and sad and feel that im not alone in the world, theres always hope, peace and joy in every your song. Thank you so so so much for your creativity. Every piece of every song is so beautiful and it touches every piece of my soul. I believe the language of music international no matter what country you live in and what nationality you are.
I feel you Nadia. been listening to Adam since high-school. Owl City always makes me nostalgic.
Its a song by Rick Nelson. Its about a show he played Madison Square garden when he played new songs and he got booed off stage. He makes references to other bands that we there (ex. Yoko Ono brought her Walrus (John Lennon)). After the show he decided to do what he wanted instead of what everyone else wanted which in other words is: You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself.
0:27 nice touch hhahahah xD
+Liam Stritt ty ;)
Hahahaha
lol
It's not coincidence that he releases this song at a time where Owl City fans are critizing Adam for a change in style of his music. I for one enjoy just about everything done by this guy!
It doesn't matter WHAT Adam sings, if it's his songs or someone else's, it seems more like he's found a creative and fun way to give life lessons
"You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself." Good words for life.
I support Adam Young 100% percent! If all he sang were memories, it wouldnt be very fun. Any kind of music he makes will not change the fact that he is an extremely talented person!
I really admire Adam Young for doing this, because he basically is stating that he KNOWS that not everyone will be happy with his newer songs. Its a new sound. But it makes HIM happy, so a few so-called fans who can't accept that he's GROWING in his music aren't going to stop him. I for one, will be a loyal fan and follow this genius of a man through it. :) //end rant//
Why are OC's songs so unorganised? This is the umpteenth time I found a song I haven't heard before despite going off of his Wiki, iTunes, Spotify etc.
Well, this technically isn't Owl City. This is just Adam Young covering songs. But yeah, someone's gotta make a list of these, I keep finding new ones and it leaves me wondering, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but you know...
Agreed
❤🚸🎩
This is a cover? Whatttt
@@scoobertdoobert1355 Yeah, it is. Check out the original
Adam Young has an impeccable taste for music to cover. And he knows just how to tweak around the music a bit. Just one of the many beautiful musicians out there, but also special in every way. ^^
Interesting cover. Not bad at all.
The original Garden Party, Richard Nader's Rock n Roll Revival concert, was held on October 15th, 1971.
His voice.
And the melody.
And the lyrics.
And... just... Everything!
It's happening again. I'm in love.
I love the Yoko brought her Walrus line... great reference
Sounds like weeb.
@@melongrass03 it's a reference to 'I am the Walrus' by the Beatles! Lennon wrote it - so it's an indirect reference to him!
"you cant please every one u got please yourself"
i am in tears
"you cant please everyone, so you gotta please yourself." Amen. so true. thats how i live. and so far, im loving it.
His voice is just perfect... so soothing and flawless.
I wonder if people know this song's about one of the most famous concerts that ever happened in Madison Square Garden with many different artists and bands, hence "Garden Party"
sadavocado I feel really bad about hearing about Ricky Nelson getting booed from there. Must’ve really hurt.
This song is so beautiful and amazing :) I love Owl City
Thanks Adam for making my childhood days beautiful with this wonderful song..
Nostalgia ❤
He makes the best songs and makes the best covers, he is just so WOW
Adam is great producer, singer, songwriter! He is a miracle for the musical World! =)
Even if he did, nobody would force you to listen to it. I'm glad the music is helping you.
People(some fans) complained that Adam's music was too "left field" and "off the wall" as far as writing goes. So he tried to write an album with more grounded, relatable and that's where The Midsummer Station came from. But guess what? People started complaining that his new music "wasn't him" &that they liked his "old" music better. There is a link in the vid descrip. to Adam's blog post explaining the history of this song. The history is very close to his own predicament with the same issue.
Owl city song is a blessing to my life....
It has the most peaceful vibe that it make ls me happy in the middle of sadness....
Thank you so much owl city....God Bless you
2022 everyone? Owlcity has a big role in my childhood days and even today!
The Garden Party was a party at Madison Square Garden. And all the people (and walruses) he mentioned in this song are based on real people at the party. Just thought I'd let you know. I got all that from his blog.
Rick Nelson was a Rock N Roll Star of the 1950s and did a TV sitcom with his real life family. He went to Madison Square Garden and everyone wanted him to just sing the oldies but he wanted to show off the new stuff.
Adam's voice and lyrics together are freaking heaven, zomgeeeeee.
It's a cover recorded recently by Adam. He tells more about it in his blog ;)
"You can't please everyone, so you gotta please yourself".....I'm Gay and Proud!
I like to think that this song also means that people who came and went into your life were for a purpose, and if you try to go back you’ll see it will never be the same.
I love this song! IT kinda taught me that I don't need to look good for everyone else as long as I'm comfortable!
I've heard OCTMS... It's actually really good. you just have to sit down and really listen 2 it! Love you, Adam Young!
"You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself."
beautiful cover
I never get tired of this song. I'm actually afraid to listen to the original cuz I'm afraid it won't be as good as Owl City's cover!
Ricky Nelson wrote this song when supposedly got booed off the stage by the crowd in a concert in Madison Square Garden. He played his old songs but nobody recognized him. I guess after he got booed off Chuck Berry(Johnny B' Good) came out and took over. The concert was full of famous musicians. "Hello Mary Lou" and "She Belongs to Me" are some songs he refers to.
Owl City
Adam's songs make me remember how close to nature I was;-;
I went to a garden party to
Reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories
And play our songs again
When I got to the garden party
They knew my name but no one recognized me
I didn't look the same
But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself
People came from miles around
And everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus
There was magic in the air
And over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr hughes hid in Dylan’s shoes
Wearing his disguise
But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself
I played them all the old songs
I thought that’s why they came
But no one heard the music
We didn’t look the same
I said "Hello" to Mary Lou, she belongs to me
And when I sang a song about a Honky Tonk
It was time to leave
But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself
Someone opened up a closet door and
Out stepped Johnny B good
Playin' guitar like ringin' a bell
And looking like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties
I wish you a lot of luck
But if memories were all I sang
I’d rather drive a truck
But it’s alright now
I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself
You can’t please everyone
So you gotta please yourself
I like the song now! I've heard the country version too many times and Adam really did something different with this. Beautiful.
Ricky Nelson is a legend, why? Because if it wasn't for him releasing this song, then Adam wouldn't have released this song!
I know what this song is saying if your still interested.
Basicly he played some of his newer songs at a concert and it didn't go down well with the crowd. So he's basicly saying that you can't please everyone so you've gotta please yourself. :)
This is true and i quote "You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself"
I tell people "I wish you a lot of luck" all the time, but no one has ever realized I'm quoting this song . . . :(
Some of his BEST SONGS are not so popular why?
That's awesome.I love this song, and I agree.
ずっと好き
At least Adam knows what the old owl city fans like :) Adam's the best, tho, no matter what type of music he has.
thanks for making this so easily available!!! I love it :)
Love tips the scales. Love is understanding. Yet for us, adults can still get mad at children. Look at how uncontrolled we actually are. We restrict our actions but not our thoughts? For what purpose is there in biting our tongue unless we actually wanted to learn how to become unmoved by the negativity we bring within us? To understand, I shouldn't say this just because I feel this way. And take that understanding to a new level?
His voice sounds good no matter what kind of music he does/sings. :') Love you adam.
No this was covered after Adam made 4 songs from the album available for free download before TMS was released officially.
Those who were hearing the new singles were complaining at how "mainstream" he sounded, when he explained in multiple blog posts and interviews that he was making it mainstream on purpose and it wasn't the record company's doing, as many like to believe.
He wrote a blog post pertaining to why he covered this song. There's a link to the blog post in the video description.
"Its alright now, I learned my lesson well. You see, you can't please everyone so you gatta please yourself."
My theory: Adam Young uploaded this cover in response to all the negativity regarding the leaked Shooting Star EP. After all, Ricky Nelson went through a similar experience when he wrote this song as he nicely put, "You can't please everyone, so you gotta please yourself!"
I believe he ment John Lennon. He wrote and sung 'I Am the Walrus' on 'Magical Mystery Tour'
owl city
I miss this Adam :'(
Amen. Ultraviolet was worlds better than TMS, but something is honestly still lacking. I miss the stripped down synths and the soft, almost whispery vocals. The beats are a bit too heavy these days.
Shush.....he's trying a new experiment. He wants to see if he can put the "magic" into pop. Obivously, he sadly can't. So he may or may not go back to the beauty that is "old" Owl City. :P
haha YOU THOUGHT
He's back at it, check out Cinematic.
I love how the song goes, it's so awesome!
Am loving this song I've listened to it over 10 times already it never gets old -3
Nice job describing it! i remember when i was curious about it when i first listened to this. I looked it up and BAM! that was a great way to put it.... maybe even better than the dictionary's definition
Finally! True fans of Adam :) Paper Tigers and Beautiful Mystery are also a couple of my favorites.
I think he should sing this to every 'Owl City fan' complaining about how they hate the 'new Adam'. He's just making himself happy guys. Stop judging him.
This needs to hit a million
Buy a walrus.
I have probably the worst family ever my mom and dad are divorced I very strongly dislike my dad for leaving my mom because she didn't deserve it. And my moms side of the family are complete idiots. My grandpa is rich but the most he's given me is fake earrings but I don't even have my ears pierced. And when I listen to Owl City's music I feel in a new and different world. So thanks to Owl City I feel more confident and like I can be myself. Thank you Adam Young for everything you do.
So calming..
its not by owl city, its a cover, its really by ricky nelson, from the 50s. rickey nelson had a concert one night, and everyone was expecting him to come out and sing his old songs that had made him famous. instead he sang his new songs, and everybody booed him. he was heartbroken. so he wrote a song about that night.
-OMG I've always had his song on a playlist and I just now looked at the video.- The picture at 0:27 . *xDD*
I like to please myself too... IYKWIM...
I think the part about Mary Lou is too cute ^_^
OMG.... this song is so calming
Luv the comment about UA-cam setting the dislikes to 10. This a perfect video! I LOVE OWL CITY! LONG LIVE ADAM!
What no I'm not crying its just... This song reminds me of my gramma because she told me those exact words when I hear this song I just start tearing up in the fond memories =,)
I think you hit the nail on the head; the line where he talks about playing memories and how if that were the case that he'd rather drive a truck is directly referencing the days when he worked a Coca-Cola plant packing trucks. I'm not altogether pleased by his evolution; I believe that Ocean Eyes was his best effort [not Fireflies in my opinion, the Tip of the Iceberg, Cave In, and Umbrella Beach were better songs] however it's his music, so he decides where it goes.
I love this song
his songs give me the chills
I'm an author and I recently began to wrap up a trilogy that incorporated new ideas with milieus that made it all seem dangerous.... it involved a rather violent man and gallant boy... after reading the first story of the trilogy my best friend complimented the story, but I could tell she didn't really like it. See, I'm a pacifist but that doesn't mean I don't write about tragic, dangerous things... my writing does not always reflect who I am and this song reminds me of the time with my friend.
Yeah you should check it out ... it's awesome :) and it makes perfect sense too coz he talks about the others who were at the garden party too, his friends etc :)
i`ll never become fed up with Owl city
Thanks for making the video. The song was great on it's own, but the pictures and lyrics made it great to watch :D Thank God for Adam's Amazing voice and skills! :)
I've just listen to this by this time! Having a good time here!
It's hard to believe that this is a cover, this song sounds so like one he would write.
His vocals have come a long way...
I send this song to my old friends
I love this song. It's soooo beautiful and I get so nostalgic looking at the date when it was uploaded. Also, fun fact: this wallpaper you used for the lyrics is the same as the wallpaper used in the iconic "Steve sitting in a field" image from Minecraft.
Owl City's version is so much better than the original :)
All his songs are good. Damn he's so talented
I wish I could live in a time loop from 2009 to 2012 just so I could enjoy these times again.
this is a wonderful song :)
Who cares if its a cover? It sounds amazing and tbh think its better than the original!
This is the stuff i wish was on his new album....ah well :-/
Still love and support Adam
