This song was new when my oldest daughter was a toddler and it reminds me of that time in our life when me and her mom were young idiots trying to figure out how to be parents before we were done being kids ourselves. This was a beautiful cover. Keep up the amazing work, guys!
Hello Casper! Please Keep doing what You're doing. I've been following you for quite a while now and I must say with no doubt... You put out one of the best Covers I've Ever heard in my Life. The little intricacies and sheer perfection with which you play is just beyond words. Not only that, your videos really do invoke a feeling. Feeling a little lost right now and your covers are super delightful. Seeing two of y'all in a single frame with such a Fab cover was such a treat. Soothing beyond measure...
As someone who's been addicted to Owl City these few months, this was a huge treat. I hope to see more Owl City covers in the future, especially from the album Cinematic and Mobile Orchestra🤭 Magnificent cover as always!
This is the best version of Fireflies I've ever heard!!! Ive always followed you and Eddie van der Meers' videos and to see both of you do a video together is amazing. :)
Two absolutely genius guitarists covering this in such a genius manner! You guys are the reason I upload on yt :))))). I'd be sooo touched if you could give me some advice on how I play :))
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)
I was looking for covers of this song, just to hear how other people sound, and to give credit to those who inspire me when I upload a cover of this song. This is awesome! :-) This song was part of my later childhood years, and you made it sound better.
Eddie en Jasper echt mooi gedaan opa kreeg tranen in zij ogen ik hoop dat je snel weer even thuis komt en je lieve vriendin komt voorstellen heel veel plezier jullie geniet van het leven en jullie success love jou

OMG i live this song its so precious
Unexpected Collab dude !! ❤
very nice
Tears in my eyes . Phenomenal
This amazing you never disappoint! You have been my inspiration to learn guitar 3 years now!
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)
Insane! 😍🔥
