I love owl city's music because it's not about humanity's pleasures (y'all know what i'm talking about), it's about .... well..... indescribable, happy things
You know? Ryuzaki 'L' Miley Cyrus' songs used to be like that as she was Hannah Montana. I'm 21 now and I still listen to her songs because their lyrics are awesome and they really touch me in the heart :)
Who else thinks Owl City is underrated?
SO underrated. His songs are so good and no negativity in them, I love Owl City’s music
@@user-nf1bz3sn4z it means like he is not really famous. But he doesnt care about fame so owl like inspiring people to be one of them
I feel like people would recognise his songs but not him as an artist so yes
As a teenager of this generation, i appreciated this song and this will be a treasure in my heart forever
and as teenager at the time this song come out.. this is also my treasure... and now im almost 30.. but still love this song
As a teenager in this current time, this is song helps me calm down when im mad or just feeling down, and people will never understand the impact this song had on me both mentally and as a person, pretty much one of the core things that helped me get through 2023 Owl City Fan for Life 💙
Not about sex
Not about drugs
Not about girls
Not about money
Not about themselves
100% About Happiness
That's what I like from Owl City
I wonder why people ignore the hits and celebrate the shits... This artist needs more recognition that he truly deserves.
You’re not wrong he actually deserve it he is one of my childhood hood favorite singers and still
i miss this guy.... i wonder how he is doing... he gave so many memories to children now they grown up and they feel the nostalgia... respect for this guy
I listened to this song and fireflies when I was 10! Im 19 now and man this guy was my childhood
Hes still active I think. I guess less popular cause he’s more mainstream? Idk I just searched the web after I read this.
He released a remix of Smash Mouth's All Star a few months ago but that's about it
Owl City's songs are never getting old. It's super sophisticated and amazing even it's been almost 10 years.
How can a human soul die? - through departure, a conscious SPIRIT leaves it`s clothing/body = a soul died. The word; "DYING" means just LEAVING or CHANGING REALMS. This word: "DYING" never carried the proof of stop existing. We, humans are considered LIVING SOULS only when all 3 parts of us (SPIRIT + SOUL + BODY) is together. After death aka leaving earth, we are JUST SPIRITS, considered naked as we are without body (carnal or spiritual). It is wise to live like there be no another day for us on this earth, even though we were given 120 years for a lifetime, still not a single second is promised. Well, our earthly lives are just a test in reality and as we read the BBILE (KJV) , we clearly see that, generations after generations, mankind had trials again and again, both, the real CHRISTIANS and the wicked ones. Therefore we ain´t expected ti live goodly without a reasons: no, our living goodly is a real life proof to GOD, that we wish to have life and have it more abundantly . But don`t be a fool, living good ain´t meaning, becoming rich and famous and bitter and full of hate and laziness, no, our good lives - means, being willing to suffer for CHRIST sake and for the gospels sake. We must REPENT AND BORN AGAIN to even start living up to the standards of a good lives. A change must take place in both places, in the mind and in the heart. A carnal mind must become spiritual mind and a cold stone`y heart, must start to beat warmly again. "Help others, protect and care for the beautiful planet we live upon, do no harm...Not because you're promised eternal paradise or threatened with eternal torment. Some people have such juvenile thinking." - help if you TRULY CAN, usually we cant, that`s why GOD ask us to place into HIS hands all the worries of this life. In reality, GOD do promise eternal life to all those, who believe and trust in HIM sincerely. (A CHILD LIKE FAITH = PURE FAITH). and we all are warned, not threatened, with a place, known as GOD`S prison, HELL and the LAKE OF FIRE. GOD ain`t a man that HE can sin, so why are we, you, me and others even dare to think that we, with our wicked and life destroying sins shall be allowed into HEAVEN or on the NEW EARTH? Will the HEAVEN still remain HEAVEN then? - NO. Will the NEW EARTH still remain a PARADISE (for there is summer forever and never have there a nighttme ever again= PARADISE aka NEW EARTH). - the answer is still NO, both places will then be ruined and transformed into the same "HELL" has we already have here and now, last 2000 and even more years.
Calling the police.
Ehmmm... this piece of art has escaped from the museum
It's been a while since I've intentionally listened to Owl City. God, I've missed it! I've never felt more alive and 'wonderified' 🥛🍪💫
I watched escape from planet earth and I heard it all the time when I was a kid and l love shooting star and I'm 18 years old.
I’m really grateful for countless artists including Owl City for producing the best era of music during 2000’s where songs are just full of emotions, sympathy, and passion without any cuss words. Really just the best era of music the world have heard.
I'm not an expert in music but I do know one thing owl city is underrated as hell
If you cried when you first listened to this song (and maybe every time you hear it), you are not alone...Owl City is amazing, every song has so much meaning. Also anyone watching this in 2020?
Edit: It's 2021 and we are still going strong! #OwlCityForever
I miss the good old days, when I was younger and naive.
Seeing the name of the artist, I thought that the city in the music video was the what the real Owl City looked like: a land of happy hipsters. When I first heard this song, I was so taken aback; I didn't know that there was such thing as songs about happiness, that didn't come from a child's cartoon. It made me hopeful, for the first time since I had started primary school.
Revisiting it now, I just feel like all the magic has been thoroughly depleted. I'm too young to feel this old...
Ikr I literally just stumbled upon this vid and until today I haven’t seen it since 2013, forgot this masterpiece even existed lol
Here to tell ya magic hasn't died. I'm not very good at spreading this feeling yet but here's the best advice I can give
It's surprisingly easy to make your life better if your not so focused on the world around you and start working on your life more locally. Make YOUR situation better (even that just means seeing things differently), and from there you might even be able to make others lives a little better.
I remember first hearing this when it came out.. Now seeing "10 years ago" makes me notice how fast time rlly goes by
This song is really wholesome and really has been helping me handle my mental illness it just makes me really happy

Who ever watches this and appreciates Owl City's music, then I love you. The new generation is corrupted by cuss words and vulgar acts/songs. I definitely love the group that agrees with me on this. Join me on my shooting star.☄
Young Prodigy I normally dont comment on things like this but what you just said is so true, its not about how many hit songs he's had or how many albums he's sold, it's not about the money or amount of women he gets, it's about meaning and feelings, and that really means something to both you and i in a day and age of meaningless songs.
Craig Gurnham Your words are so intricate and well thought out. They have pierced my heart man. You really get the picture. I'm glad and appreciate that you understand the present era of music. It completely changed people's actions and the way they live. Happy New Years man and much more to come. Much love.
Young Prodigy thank u like drake juju on the beat that stupid songs fetty wap people think that stuff is cool but it's not parents when your kids get older in the teens becareful what they watch it'll learn then disiplince so plz parents be careful what they watch
His voice and music are so unique and unforgettable.
Owl City, Your music is brighter than a shooting star, shine no matter where you are
If Owl City was an actual city and it was this kind of vibe every day and night, I don't mind moving there
Not a single other artist has ever made me feel such joy that I want to cry from it like h can. They're filled with such hype and a love for life, it's absolutely amazing
2k18 always love owl city 🙏🏻😍
HEY THE OUR EARTH SHINING THE WHOLE WORLD CAUSE WE SHINE
ME:Time ti shine
There is so much purity in every of his songs. Even some random occasion from my lifetime is lead me to remind myself how I love Owl City from the very first album
Close your tired eyes
Relax and then
Count from one to ten
And open them
All these heavy thoughts
Will try to weigh you down
But not this time
Way up in the air
You're finally free
And you can stay up there
Right next to me
All this gravity
Will try to pull you down
But not this time
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Gaze into my eyes
When the fire starts
And feel the flame so hot
It melts our hearts
Oh the pouring rain
Will try to put it out
But not this time
Let your colors burn
And brightly burst
Into a million sparks
That all disperse
Illuminate a world
That will try to bring you down
But not this time
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
A thousand heartbeats beating time
It makes this dark planet come alive
So when lights flicker out tonight
You gotta shine
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight
the nostalgia dude... im actually crying right now
I discovered it on a movie about aliens in earth trying to escape and I forgot the name of the film
His music is so high vibrational, my soul is celebrating in every song he has. ❤️

Owl City will always be one of the best artist in my heart. Some Cheered me up, Some made me rethink about things, some made me cry and all of those helped me a lot
Me watching this during Corona quarantine...i almost cried
Be strong u r safe u will not die
And if you will die then I am not responsible
COMMENT REVIEW
"ToPiCaL", coronavirus comment, will date poorly. This trend will infect every music video for years. Though, one point added for emotion, I guess
*3/10 - Common, but not necessarily lazy*
That's why I always loved owl city, they always make beautiful music without curse words or inappropriate references.
This is song is so inspiring, so heart warming and so positive that this song could be one of the songs sung by a good guy.
I have been listening to Owl City for years and Everything he makes is amazing, also songs from the croods and that's amazing

This creator should have at least 10 million more subscribers. This is such a quality creator that's underrated. Why do people celebrate these songs that are all about drugs and other things like that? Why can't we enjoy songs like this that are actually good? Owl City has real talent.
Proud hootowl since 2009.♥ I don't really care if other singers change into something unappealing. Adam Young is unique and original, so no matter what happens, I just hope Adam doesn't change. I probably wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for this lovely human being.
I actually started tearing up (and still am) while typing this. No words can describe how grateful I am.
I'm bawling my eyes out while watching this video...😭it makes me so proud of him and I'm just so happy that Not all music videos and just the Song in general has to involve Nudity, Curse words, and violence! He's such a great person and singer! I can't stop crying! It's so great!😭
Ella Reid Exactly. I also love how he doesn't really make his music videos about him most of the time. For example, this on, Metropolis, and Umbrella Beach were all based on other people.
God I love his music ever thing else is like smoke weed and etc this is what music should be.
Queen vitery The adlisck /dragon Exactly. If music today is about being sexual with someone you find attractive and drugs/drinking, then that's just messed up. Just think about it.. Not only that, Adam just has a good spirit. He gives me so much hope. It kind of reminds me that the world isn't as cruel as it appears, ya know?
man... sometimes I try to find songs like this that doesn't have girls twearking like this but can't ;(
Really, Artists like this rely on sincere and commited content instead of curse words or vulgar music videos to get their message across.
I listen to music that has cussing but it's not vulgar. But I definitely agree. We don't cuss words to get the message across
my friends and family make fun of me for listening to owl city but it makes me feel good
I agree. But I have to ask, are you Mormon, SMOSBY "Waitforit" Stintsfire? I took a look at your profile, sorry if you're not. But I had to ask.
I swear me and my classmates had a blast when our teacher made us listen to this, and that was in 3rd grade.
One of the best moments for me that time:]
This song takes me back
My #1 favorite Owl City song, followed by Galaxies and On the Wing. Really, no one does it like he does. He's the best man and musician ever. Every time I hear him, I feel so good. Smiles on my face, relaxation, he just does it, just like that. Love Owl City and always will.

Fill the darkest night

cause its time for you to shine
BRIGHTER THAN A SHOOTING STAR

TONIGHT
End
This is one of my childhood songs, I'd just like to thank Owl City for making my childhood amazing and bright. His songs always made me go crazy and happy. I miss the old times, seriously, I'd wish to go back in time to all those moments one last time, my mother was right..Childhood memories are the most memorial ones.
Iahvender i feel for these type of comments now its just filled with 2019 comments
YT chEEtahZ Not really, 2012 was about 7 years ago and depending on her birthday she could be 6 or 7 years older now. If she is 8, then she would’ve been 2 or 1. Which could be possible, but based on how much she remember this and how she can do stuff such as building a fort, I would say that she had to be at least 6 when this happened, at youngest of course. Therefore the youngest she could be now is 12 which in fact, is not that close to 8.
Just saw this in my recommendations. Took my breath away as I listened to it. Every single Owl City song is different. I love that!
I ❤🦉🌃
Owl city will always be the best of himself everything of his songs and his uniqueness songs, It just makes me so happy and hype so much

I feel like he's gonna break the piano if he plays that hard lol
+Kuro Tsukiakari I always think that when I see videos involving Adam and a piano.
+Kuro Tsukiakari Pretty sure its not even a piano, monophonic analog synth (can only play one note at a time) either that or a REALLY weird looking hammer action piano, in which case its meant to be played pretty hard.
Owl city was my favourite singer when I was in primary school... and he still is.
@@jhonthewolf I live in the same town, I don’t know him ( I am a lot older 😗).
Adam Young’s music as Owl City saved me when I was sick and weak. Literally. I had surgery to fix me but before I knew I was in trouble I leaned on this music for strength.
This is the first Owl City song that I heard back in 2018. It was from the animated movie "Escape from planet Earth". I searched for the song and now I'm addicted. It's been five years and he's my favourite artist. I listen to all his music, repeatedly and never get tired. It's not like other singers where I get bored when I listen to their music multiple times.
I'm glad I discovered Owl City's songs.
I found this song from that movie too! I came to this video to see if i could find someone else that also watched the movie cause i forgot the name, thank goodness there someone else that knows the movie
I don't really know how they do it, but every single song Owl City puts out is so inspiring and magical somehow. This is the best band i've listened to in a long time.
Joanna Mysluk Owl City isn't really a band it's a project of Adam Young.
And I don't know what he means by that.
I just wanna say, to all you people listening to this, we'll get through this pandemic together, and don't forget to..
Brighter than a shooting star...
SHINE NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE, TONIGHT!!!!!!!
Edit: oh my gosh! Thank you for all the likes!! You guys are awesome😁

I am shooketh😁
All his songs are filled with pure, warm, soothing energy 🤍
This song will never die
More people need to know about owl city it's the most inspiring music
I am so happy that I found out about owl city.
All their music is very wholesome and it is never about any inappropriate things.
Music nowadays are all about sex, drugs, girls, money...
But their music is fully focused on happiness, bringing happiness through their music.
Owl city is amazing and more people need to hear this.
crazy fact is that "Owl City" isn't even a "them", Adam Young is a solo artist but the name he uses isn't his own name
No matter where you are or what challenges you go through in life you can still shine brighter than a shooting star.
True!!
Love the meaning of this song.

The year is 2013, you're in your room and Owl City's 'Shooting Star' is on the radio, life is great...
Owl City conveys messages from Heaven. This song helps motivate us to get moving and to do our part to make this world better in the midst of all the darkness that surrounds us. It is telling us to accept the mantle of heroism wherever you are to make this world a bit brighter.
Use courage as a tool to push through your fears and doubts. If you know what would make the world a bit better, just start doing it and use courage to give you the strength to move forward. Keep having faith and courage because victory, success, and happiness will be your rewards.
Great job! You must be a great writer! This is very motivating to all ppl who are feeling depressed, suicidal, and lost. I myself are not one of them, but whoever is that reads this, will definitely get through their sadness alive.
😀😀😀
Everyone knows Owl City for Fireflies and then fail to look at their other music. Their music is so inspirational and amazing
Vanilla Twilight is one of my favorites. And If My Heart Was a House
This song deserves more. Owl City is the best of the best! He is so amazing.
I feel Like every time I heard Owl City come on, I rediscover some hope for this world. Probably helped me out of some of the darkest times in my life.

I felt so nostalgic right now :( It still sounds so good like how I heard it back in 2012. That year is the best, no lies.
This song is criminally underrated.
It stood out to me as a special work of art because of how it inspires encouragement to those who have trouble getting the will and confidence to do things that they are passionate about.
At least, that's how I see it.
Honestly, this deserves more views than it has right now even to 2k19 😮
CT 1945 he *26M* views that's pretty awesome to me. But, tbh when he came out ppl weren't giving me the love her deserved. He had SO many great songs I loved him & still do! ☺️💕
It's song talks about the less detailed happy moments of life. It always puts my head in a bright, empty place that I fill with random thoughts that branch out into a strange, musical tree that always stays there after the music ends.
I'm not joking, I've got a sunny forest in my brain right now, send help this isn't how humans are meant to work jfc I'm scared.
You have finally unlocked the part of you that only come in rare occasions. Congratulations, this only happens when you are truly happy and at peace with yourself. It will lock again, but you now know that this little space exists and remember that you can always find it again with Owl City.
Omg it been 10 years i still remember this love , brings a lot memory back to me...
This song was made 10yrs ago and still
is fire 🔥
Im so Inlove with this music.😍😍
No Hate. Just Love.
OWL CITY 😭
2019 everyone?
Hi. From the Philippines !
Underrated as fuck.
Why is this song sitting at 10-20 millions views, it deserves billions.
No....it deserves all the views in the world, but maybe if you x10 that number of viewers then maybe I'd be ok
I can listen to it any number of times.
Everytime it fills my veins with adrenaline...❤
I love Owl City so much, movies became bad when his music wasn't involved.
Why does everyone hate this song it's like my favorite .
People have this song? Who, I'll find them and I will bitch slap them
The most underrated artist ever
Theo Smith one of the best yet underrated why? because kids these days love those love songs instead of meaningful one
Romar Delacruz
Love songs can be really meaningful though.
Owl City has made quite a few of them himself.
My father always said…
“Life isn’t fun without a struggle in it, but some struggles lead to tragic endings.”
Owl city’s music is so good
No cuss words
And overall different from this generation
Keep it uppp!!!
evrytime I listen to this song I feel Something Bright Up inside me like the world makes more sense to me because of this song.......this Song is Beautiful! who else agrees?
NightyFire 0NeonTale i really love this song because it makes me happy inside. But it could never compare its self to my mom and dad. They are my everything.
I listened to this for about two years and I forgot about this for 8 months, I always wake up at 4:30, and when I opened the window, I saw the beautiful sky and saw stars and I was instantly reminded of this video, this music hit me so hard, I'm crying.
How nostalgic of a song. Never seemed to find it for the past few years while it was stuck in my head til now
My Sunday school played all of Owl City's Christian music and I didn't know who sang them till this year. I'm crying because all Adam's songs are my childhood and I love them so much♥
Shooting Star
Owl City
Close your tired eyes, relaxing them
Count from one to ten and open them
All these heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down, but not this time
Way up in the air, you're finally free, and you can stay up there, right next to me
All this gravity will try to pull you down, but not this time
When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out,
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light,
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are, tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Brighter than a shooting star,
Shine no matter where you are, tonight
Gazing into my eyes, when the fire starts,
And fan the flame so hot, it melts our hearts
All the pouring rain, will try to put it out, but not this time
Let your colors burn, and brightly burst,
Into a million sparks, but all dispersed and illuminate a world,
That'll try to bring you down, but not this time
When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out,
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light,
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are, tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Brighter than a shooting star,
Shine no matter where you are, tonight
A thousand heartbeats beating time, and makes this dark planet come alive
So when the lights flicker out tonight, you gotta shine
When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out,
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light,
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are, tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Brighter than a shooting star,
Shine no matter where you are, tonight

Honestly it hurts how underrated Adam is. His music deserves to be known! People need to know this exists!
Sometimes, when my mother isn't home, I go into the backyard, bury myself and pretend I'm a carrot.
I don't remember where did i find this song but i was CRAZY about it when i was a kid, the motivation i used to get when i listened to it is insane. Shine no matter where you are!
Thank you for your music❤ My 3 year old son is Autistic and you are the one of few things that calm him down, your music has gotten him to sleep..please keep it up!!
Not the Shooting Star i was looking, but the Shooting Star that i needed.
Yes. The world needs him. I wanna see him in real life! I wanna meet him so bad and tell him that he is such an inspiration to all and that ppl still appreciate him around the world. He definitely neats Lil Pump or anything that is rap really. He is such a hit in my world. I am not living in reality, I am living in my childish imagination. Like his quote says,
"Reality is a lovely place, but I wouldn't wanna live there." I ❤🦉🌃
Midsummer Station is my favorite album. I love how dancy and also rocky tracks were.
TMS helped me through a lot of rough stuff back then
My two young sons and i enjoy falling asleep to your music 😊 very calming and makes me reminisce we love it

This song is so good! One of my favorite Owl City songs, it’s got a really sick beat and good vibes to it (like all Owl City)
There were so many beautiful moments in my childhood. Now when I listen to this, I can’t stop crying. Life’s tough but luckily i got this.
This is absolutely amazing. I actually cried while watching this. Owl City is so amazing. There are no words. We need more singers like this
I DON'T KNOW WHY PEOPLE DISLIKES THE VIDEO OF OWL CITY ITS SO GREAT AND SO AWESOME HOW CAN THEY NOT SEE THAT ??
BY THE WAY I LIKE YOUR VIDEOS OWL CITY POWER !!!!
