Biography

Owl City is an American electronic music project created in 2007 in Owatonna, Minnesota. It is one of several projects by singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Adam Young, who created the project while experimenting with music in his parents' basement. Owl City developed a following on the social networking site Myspace, like many musicians who achieved success in the late 2000s, before signing with Universal Republic Records, now Republic Records, in 2008. After two independent releases, his debut EP Of June (2007) and debut studio album Maybe I'm Dreaming (2008), Owl City gained mainstream popularity with its 2009 major-label debut and second studio album, Ocean Eyes, which includes the Diamond certified single "Fireflies". The album was certified 2× Platinum in the United States, with "Fireflies" being certified Diamond in January 2023. In June 2011, Owl City released its third studio album, All Things Bright and Beautiful, which was followed by The Midsummer Station in August 2012. He released his fifth studio album and last under Republic Records, Mobile Orchestra in July 2015. He released his sixth and seventh studio album Cinematic (2018) and Coco Moon (2023), independently. Owl City has recorded songs for several animated films, including Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, Wreck-It Ralph, The Croods and The Smurfs 2. Owl City also has released several charting singles, most notably the Carly Rae Jepsen duet "Good Time" and "Fireflies".

LYRICS

Feels like I've been away for a thousand years
So tired of these airports and souvenirs
I shiver in the night and I think of you
I stroll the boulevards
I stare up at the stars
And wish they all aligned
You keep me on my toes
And this is how it goes
You never leave my mind

Are you having fun yet
I'll send you the sun-sign
I love the most when I'm in Tokyo
I'll mail down the moon-line
It follow the shoreline
On down the coast, when I'm in Tokyo
Oh, can't sleep the whole night through
Oh, I'm missing you

I'm thinking it out loud
I wish I could reach out
And hold you close, when I'm in Tokyo

I wander all alone in the pouring rain
Line-shocking on the wind, in the bullet train
I shiver in the night and I think of you

I stroll the boulevards
I stare up at the stars
And wish they all aligned
You keep me on my toes
And this is how it goes
You never leave my mind

Are you having fun yet
I'll send you the sun-sign
I love the most when I'm in Tokyo
I'll mail down the moon-line
It follow the shoreline
On down the coast, when I'm in Tokyo
Oh, can't sleep the whole night through
Oh, I'm missing you

I'm thinking it out loud
I wish I could reach out
And hold you close, when I'm in Tokyo
I stroll the boulevards
I stare up at the stars
And wish they all aligned
You keep me on my toes
And this is how it goes
You never leave my mind

Are you having fun yet
I'll send you the sun-sign
I love the most
I'll mail down the moon-line
It follow the shoreline
On down the coast
Oh, can't sleep the whole night through
Oh, I'm missing you

I'm thinking it out loud
I wish I could reach out

And hold you close when I'm in Tokyo
When I'm in Tokyo, (when I'm in Tokyo)
When I'm in Tokyo, (when I'm in Tokyo)
When I'm in Tokyo, (when I'm in Tokyo)
When I'm in Tokyo, (when I'm in Tokyo)
