A college student from Owatonna, Minnesota, USA, he independently released his first EP "Of June". 20 Owl City brought many people a different feeling. In 2008, he released his first album "Maybe" I'm Dreaming", and then released their second album "Ocean Eyes" on July 14, 2009. But his major-label debut studio album "Ocean Eyes" has everyone excited, especially in the fall, when his iconic lead single "Fireflies" flies to the Billboard Number one on the singles chart. His music style is as gentle and delicate as a girl confiding her thoughts, but he has a perfect grasp of the melody and rhythm. The album conquered many listeners with its cheerful electronic melody, shining brightly like a gem. And the first album Maybe I' Owl City is obviously more involved in m Dreaming's performance. From the exquisite harmonies to the soulful chorus, Owl City's personal charm becomes more and more prominent. With sweet voices and fresh electronic music, this seemingly simple combination is interpreted by Owl City. It’s so gorgeous and colorful, and even though summer hasn’t arrived yet, it feels like it’s refreshing and comfortable. Owl City is just a band run by American college student Adam Young. He was deeply influenced by European electronic synthesizers and new wave music in the 1980s. Adam Yound, who describes himself as a "shy kid", has been working in the music industry since 2007. After signing with Universal Music, the record company penetrated his songs with happy and hypnotic power into the daily lives of people all over the United States through all-round media support including radio, Internet and television. Owl City's magical blend of bouncy electronic rhythms and rich melodies was originally created in his parents' basement. He recreated the scene in the video for "Fireflies," which depicts a genial singer performing his songs in his ideal basement setting. This MV has an astonishing more than 8.5 million views on Youtube, and has a high number of plays on VH-1 TV station and other TV network platforms.
Adam Young, who came from a small Minnesota town with a population of only 22,000, used his singing to convey an unusually simple and happy emotion, but it was this small emotion that firmly captured the ears and hearts of the audience, and became the key to today's busy music scene. A refreshing trend. He calls his basement "the cave" where he produced most of the songs on the album, including "Cave in", "the saltwater room", "Umbrella Beach", "Dental Care" and the iTunes chart-topping "Vanilla Twilight".

Because you are the only one in the entire group. Owl City: Because the name Owl City sounds cool, Adam Young sounds a bit silly. Reporter: The first album ranked 20th on the Billboard Electronic Albums list, and the second album ranked 16th. None of this is supported by a record company. Do you think you are great? Owl City: What do I say? What I mean is, before I officially signed with a major international label, it was certainly not possible for me to deliberately or plan to achieve any ranking or performance on the charts for my album. But that doesn’t mean I’m not completely surprised and gratified by such results. To be honest, I'm really happy, but it's also a strange feeling in a way. It's as if you wake up from a dream one workday morning, ready to start your work, but suddenly realize that all the work has been completed. This is a somewhat surreal feeling... Reporter: Your voice is often compared with Postal Service. Do you think this is more accurate? Owl City: Sorry, who is he? Reporter: When did you realize that you wanted to make music seriously, and what made you discover this? Owl City: To be honest, once music started taking over my mind, I knew I wanted to make music as a career. For me, it doesn’t mean that this is my own decision, or that I believe that I will definitely become an artist. I am a musician because I am born with this talent and the ability to create music. In other words, at this time and with the opportunities I have been given, this is without a doubt the best job I can do. I feel very lucky and grateful that I have such a talent. Reporter: Besides music, what else do you like? Owl City: Pizza, rock climbing, pajamas, Nordic metal music, surprising my girlfriend with cute chicks for Easter, and more. Reporter: Who had the greatest influence on your musical sense when you were growing up? Where do you find inspiration for making music now? Owl City: Johnathan Ford, this guy is a genius. Reporter: Do you have any specific habits when creating, such as writing lyrics first or music first? Owl City: The music always comes first, usually the main melody of a song, and then I will consider the rhythm, arrangement and other polishing, complete and complementary parts. Therefore, completing a song can be a long process, but a good song is worth crafting.
Reporter: If you could go back in time and change one thing, where would you go? What are you going to do? Owl City: I'm going back to the mid-19th century and opening the first McDonald's restaurant at that time. Because for that era and consumer demographic, Crispy Mustard Sweet Sauce Snack Wraps (probably Adam's favorite McDonald's item) would have been very, very cheap, and I would have had that in my pockets and socks before I came back to reality. Something of the times. Just like Peter Pan. Reporter: What’s the next plan? Owl City: My next plan is to go to the nearest Wal-Mart. My belt broke three days ago. Now I am using an old shoelace as my belt... Reporter: Do you prefer the East Coast or the West Coast? Owl City: I left my heart in San Francisco. Reporter: If you could choose a place you like to live or travel around the world, where would you choose? Owl City: Australia, they have the cutest koala bears and the most confusing accents. Reporter: Some foreign media pointed out that you are the favorite to be selected for the 52nd Grammy New Artist Award. What do you think? Owl City: I think it's time to change my diaper... (so excited) Reporter: It's nearing the end of 2009. What's the most impressive record this year? Owl City: Sadly, I haven’t listened to an album by an artist I love this year. I was actually looking for any good songs, but nothing really caught my attention or stood out to me. The songs I heard talked about girls, alcohol, and dancing. This confuses me.
