Owl City.

Friday, February 24, 2012

I've found that I've fallen in love with Owl City. From his music to his charming voice, Adam Young is easily one of my heroes. His songs have inspired me many times, it's hard to listen to his music and not feel happy. Many would call the lyrics of his music silly, but I find an odd truth in them, and they make me think.

This song is featured in The Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole. Sadly, I have not seen the movie yet, but I have read the books!!
To The Sky:




This song is just plain beautiful...

If you haven't heard of Owl City, I hope these songs got you off to a good start. I think my favorite thing about Adam is that no one, including himself, expected his life to take such a dramatic turn as he discovered music. He was always the shy boy who stayed home in his parents basement for hours playing around on the keyboard, but no one thought he would ever be on stage in front of thousands of screaming fans.

I guess that how I feel about myself sometimes, even though becoming a songwriter and worship leader is my dream, the task seems so big, and sometimes I doubt myself. But Adam's way of thinking calls for hoping for the unimaginable.


Chase Your Dreams, and Remember Me, Sweet Bravery. Because After All Those Wings Will Take You Up So High. So Bid the Forest Floor Goodbye, As We Race the Wind and Take To The Sky.

To The Sky by Adam Young.
