He doesn’t fight crime or wear a cape
He doesn't read minds or levitate
But every time my world needs saving
He’s my superman
Some folks don’t believe in heroes
Cause they haven’t met my dad
He loves his workshop and rock n roll
He’s got a hot rod and a heart of gold
And you could say he’s a man of few words
But he talks a lot within
And even thought I’m a little taller
I still look up to him
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
My dad’s a hero to me
Rust ridden fenders and doors full of dings
Somehow he can fix about anything
I didn’t think he knew how to cry until our dog died that year
He doesn’t always say I love ya
But I can hear him loud and clear
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
My dad’s a hero to me
"even though I am a little taller, I still look up to him"
how can anyone think that beautifully. wow
Shiva Sharma such a beautiful lyric
Shiva Sharma I cried 😭😭
Shiva Sharma Bo Burnham
Ulyses Pedroso I did to
lmao you're right
When Owl City says its Acoustic it actually means.. out of this world
Amen!
XD amen to that! I'm just still so surprised on how he's not as popular as he is with all of this...
Yeah i agree!
I was about to say that XD
TheToweler absolutely love the guitar, makes it so much more sentimental, definitely has to make more songs like this... because he's totally right
My dad passed away tonight. I showed this song to him three years ago and he cried. He really is my hero, I don’t want to live without him. I love you dad, thank you for everything.
Sorry for your loss
Hold tight sis. It's gonna get better
Stay strong ❤️
You keep him alive by talking about him and now we all know you had a great Dad.
Feel sorry for your lost darl ❤️🥰
Rest in Peace😢🙏🏼❤️
Just leaving my comment on this video. So that every time someone like this comment, I could come back to listen this.
I like it bro its time to re listen again😢
Hey it’s that time again from how you’re doing good
Hey , its just a reminder
Yo come back and listen to this absolute masterpiece of a song
Done Son!
I just love how most singers are writing songs about sex and then there's Adam who writes a song for his dad for father's day. This is why Adam will always be one of my favourites
I agree.. he's such a rare gem in these days and age
this is sad but true....the next generation is doomed..
Urgh just fuck off. You cannot have been listening to much modern music if you think it's all about sex
katten elvis but most mainstream music is about sex. Maybe not all the modern music, like there's a lot of great Christian songs out there. But mainstream music is 95% about sex, drugs, or money
Centelam yeah
I showed this song to my dad, and there were tears in his eyes.
To all dads, you're awesome!!!
Leaving my original comment for context, but I'm changing it a bit. When I wrote this, I didn't know about how broken this world really is. I was naive. So many people have commented on this though, and I've actually seen more since I finished high school, and I know now, that as sad as it is, there are absent fathers in the home.
To all REAL dads out there. The ones who are there for their kids, and who care: you're amazing.
Sabrina Pederson i showed this to my dad, and nothing happened. My dad dont understand english :(
You are Lucky! Enjoy your moment.
Same here! My dad also loves Owl City and it made him tear up with joy when i told him he’s my hero
Except my dad 😩
Not all Dad's are heroes. It breaks my heart how my estranged husband has broken our son's heart. Luckily there's enough LOVE on his Mama's side
Don’t mind the grammy awards, mtv award, billboard awards. Don’t you all worry, Owl City’s music will last an endless lifetime. :)
Too true, I don't know who won the Grammys or MTV awards or the Billboard awards, but I know an Owl City song from almost the first line.
He doesn’t need those trash
Then we need a new kind of award
Those awards are for artists who sell music with explicit words and act in MV
And your personality is trashed too 😂@@chanieei139
He doesn't fight crime
Or wear a cape
He doesn't read minds
Or levitate
But every time my world needs saving
He's my Superman
Some folks don't believe in heroes
'Cause they haven't met my dad
He loves his workshop
And rock 'n roll
He's got a hot rod
And a heart of gold
And you could say he's a man of few words
But he talks a lot within
And even though I'm a little taller
I still look up to him
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me
Rust ridden fenders
And doors full of dings
Somehow he can fix about anything
I didn't think he knew how to cry
'Til our dog died that year
He doesn't always say I love you
But I can hear him loud and clear
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see
That my dad's a hero to me
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see
That my dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
Oh man
Adam Young is like one of those musicians who doesn't give a fuck about what's going on in the world. He just keeps making music in his basement.
that basement will become a historical place sometime in the future lol
+Kathleen Belleza and that place will be known as the basement where the best music were made
Manthan Gupta that's why I like him!!
That's a big part of why I like him, too! XD
Manthan Gupta omg you said it! 👏👏
Look out 2017, Owl City is back. This is real, poignant, and magical. Thank you so so much Adam.
lol
😳💖
Kevin Winder Sadly, most people don't listen to his songs and the critics hate him. It all started when he confessed his faith and that he dedicated an album to Jesus. The album received horrible reviews. I remember after a while this girl with Pink hair sang a song about anacondas that became more popular despite having no inherent redeeming quality in her song, she was praised to no end by critics.
kaihtheloner I'm ready to move to Mars, Earth is compromised.
Mt 14 year old played this to me today. Nothing short of tears. We try and be the best for them as we can be
I still listen to this song every year since my Father passed away. Thank you, Adam, for putting into words how many of us feel. Especially today
This song hit my heart
BEST FATHER'S DAY SONG EVER.
SamLaunching Studio, freaking hands down man!
SamLaunching Studio It could be the only Father's day song ever lol
SamLaunching Studio ikrrrr
When I become a dad I want to be that kind of dad
SamLaunching Studio พี่แซม
Some people are unhappy with him releasing more matured music as Owl City instead of his own name, but reminder: the first line of the liner notes on every Owl City album ever says;
"Owl City is Adam Young"
😍🌸
Amen. :)
What I don't understand is why people think he's here to please them and give them exactly what they want. No matter what he makes, no matter what sound he does, someone will always hate it. He does more upbeat, "silly", electronic dance type music, someone hates it. So he does more acoustic, slower, and mature music. Someone hates that. He is an artist, and any artist (whether a painter, an illustrator, a singer, a dancer, or a sculpture or anything else) will experiment and try different genres and types of art, if art is their passion and how they deal with life. There's nothing wrong with it and people should embrace Adam for not only having the drive to try new and different sounds, but the talent and skill to actually master it when he does try it! Ahh well.. That's why Adam covered Garden Party. "You can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself."
It's way too "tight" to be 100% acoustic. I don't believe it. Must have recorded and looped some of it. Still awesome.
I wouldn't say it's more matured, but this also still feels like old Owl City in the ways that count to me. So..
4 years ago, when I listened to this song for the first time, I didn't think much of it not until about 2 years ago when I was accused of aggravated robbery, and my dad it would visit me at least 3 times in a week during the 89 days I spent in detention, jumping on two buses covering a distance of about 100km. Yet, some people I thought were friends and family who were near where I was being detained never even bothered to visit me. My dad is my hero, and I'll always dedicate him this song.
I lost my dad to Pneumonia last night...He wasn't a good father but he was still a human being I cared about. Adam's song is really amazing and it makes me happy that I had a dad to begin with. Hope you guys have a beautiful day! And take care of your parents if they're still around!
Hopefully you feel better. Thank you hopefully I do have a beautiful day and take care !
One of the most underrated artists in the music industry
jasonteow very true
no doubt about it
Well ur not wrong about that
He must be underrated in the music industry but his talent is NOT UNDERRATED ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
"Even though I'm a little taller, I still look up to him."
Anthony Patricio dude ur like 7
Luna_DiAngelo༄ Because some lines speak more to the listener. This one is my personal favourite from this beautiful song too.
Luna_DiAngelo༄ Yup agree with you to that extent! I was just giving you the reason for the likes😅. Also the OP has used quotations.
Someday I'm gonna learn a guitar and I'm gonna sing this song in a big event and I'm going to dedicate this song to my father who is gone but not forgotten.
Miss you Dad you'll always be my hero taught a lot of things which I'll remember a lifetime.
I don't usually tear up when I listen to these kinds of songs.
But this. This one got me.
Seriously. I cried in the middle of class breaking down sobbing bc of this song.
I might not have that kind of father, but I wish that my children would 😊
I'm gonna make sure my kids have the dad I've never had
I don't have the best ideal father but if I'm lucky enough to have a child, I would do my best to be the best father for them.
Me too
Same, can't relate to songs of dads like these
Same here
'' When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see: my dad's a hero to me '' 💕
rest in peace daddy 😞
I'm sure he believes in that
Anastasia Scarlet May God bless you. Always keep your father's moments.
Anastasia Scarlet innalillahi
Hajar Ab thank you girl! thank you all for your support ! 🤧
muhammad fadhil yes, we belong to God and to him we'll return 😢
Happy father's day 2020. Dedicated to all the father's across the world
I just heard this for the first time at work today. It almost made me cry 😢
My dad wasn't around all the time when I was growing up because of his job. But when he was at home, it was only him and me. Watching movies, going around together or playing Rock & Roll with the guitar and piano. 100% Father & Son.
He didn't build me a tree house but he did teach me how to fight and dream. His message was something like "You can do whatever you want with your life. Just make sure that it takes you somewhere".
He passed away in 2017 at 55 years old because of a cancer, in México. We spent together all April month of that year together. And we didn't have a good relationship back then until we met again. And in that month we revived the good times together. Father & Son again, knowing that it would be the last time I could be with him.
He died 5 years ago and I still think of him every single day.
Now I'm 33, I have a steady job and living on my own. But I do regret that he's not alive to enjoy all of this with me.
"Not All Heroes Wear Capes". Well, my dad didn't have any cape...but he was and still is...one of my Heroes.
I ❤YOU DAD
what is this sorcery?? no nude ladies, no swearing, no drunk ass looking rapper and actually a good motivational song? i find this kind of songs are a rarity these days, please keep up making good songs Adam Young😊 youre so inspirational
Nick Firdaus just listen to Shawn mended his songs are similar to owl city...
Dude you got a subscriber. I agree
Nick Firdaus I agree these kind of songs are rare , without sexualizing stuff .Try listening to BTS (a korean band) even though it's korean ,their songs are so good and meaningful
A undercover penguin
but they are not popular because people likes snoop dogg and other ass hole weed smoking rapers..
Well those things don't fit into an category that I could imagine would be a positive motivational force. lol
just imagine when he's married and his kids just sing this for him
Veronicaagn :'(
Aww
I imagine a father adam crying for joy.
Wow...never have I needed a happy-cry emoji like I do now
awwwwwww
The fact that this video is not recommended you searched for it especially this Father's day. Love this song. 🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️
My wife put this song on an Instagram reel of me and my little boy yesterday. Made me cry. 😢
I love the progression of Adam's music... From silly and sweet to personal and heartfelt. This is lovely ❤️
Sunshine I love his music like this, but I still like silly and sweet 😁
Sunshine Wagner, slick move😂
exactly
jakes fares I didn't get it bro 👀. What's a slick move? English isn't my first language so... can you explain it to me?
Where have you been dude. for so long. people missd you
dann bari He worked on a side project the whole 2016 of just scores about historical events.
Arrizkyu p we want another version of fireflies ans vanilla twilight❤
dann bari for so long right, I miss his voice damn much
YESSS!!
Its been awhile...
My dad found out he has esophagus cancer a few weeks ago, and we found out this past weekend that it had spread to his lymph nodes and is inoperable.
This song genuinely helps so much. It's keeping me sane. I know they'll never see this. But, thank you Owl City.
I sent this to my dad who is in Afghanistan currently, I didn’t think he’d like it but he really liked it. Thanks Adam!
Thank you Randy and Joan Young for the beautiful human being that is named Adam Young.
captainboobypants yea
is that hes mom and dad??
Facehugger wut
do a song featuring The Chainsmoker
Facehugger why tho
My dad’s a doctor, his day and night job is saving lives. He’s a hero to not just me, but to many many others too. This hits hard.
CY Chow It hits me hard too, my dad is a policeman
My dad is a serial killer , he loves his torture workshop .
jk, im joking .
You’re right..❤️❤️
CY Chow profitting unfortunate ills
Mine too
This is the saddest song I've heard since my father died on Father's Day. He died after struggling with cancer he suffered for 7 years.
This song really represents how my father was in his life. I've never seen him cry, and he taught me not to cry over the little things. He is good at cooking. Whenever we got an order, my father always helped my mother cook. He always sewed my torn uniform, and taught me not to always buy new things if they could be repaired. He always helps me finish school projects related to electricity and mechanics. He always fixes things that are broken at home. We almost never buy new things when they break.
My father can do anything extraordinary.
I miss him so much after a month I didn't see his face again. But he always taught me to stay dependent on God, even when he wasn't around. He taught me to see that in suffering, the name of God is exalted.
Thank you Adam for your beautiful song ❤️
I chose this song for the father daughter dance on my wedding day in 2019 and could not describe my dad more accurately. My dog even died that year.
my dad wasn't quite the role model i'd hope for. in fact, he's probably the opposite of what a dad should be. But this song, it paints such a beautiful picture of a dad, i can imagine clearly the dad i'd like to have, and that's awesome enough :)
Relatable.
Jeffro Ong if he's still here forgive him. Let him redeem himself. Always love dont hate
i have not even met my dad but this song made me cry
Though this song is about his Dad here on earth, we all have a Father in heaven that loves us much more and even better-from his life I am sure Adam's Dad learned how to be a good Dad from God. I hope you will give Him a shot at being a good Father if you haven't.
atleast if you become dad. be a real dead sorry for rip english
I am going to comment on a fact that everybody seems to overlook. The fact that Adam is the one playing all the instrument, he is the one who wrote the song and is the one singing it and as everyone else stated, there are no curse words, nudity, drugs or the like. Not to mention he also wrote all of those scores. There are no other artist who can hold a candle to him. He is so talented that he is actually a genius, but is often overlooked. All of these big name artists and rappers can't even come up with a decent lyric, let alone orchestrate a while music by themselves, yet they get all the money: welcome to earth folks, the land of chaos. This is the same thing we did to TESLA.
Have to agree with you there
he's actually very clearly not playing the guitar, and in the actual song you can clearly hear two guitars playing. This video shows that he actually has no idea how to play guitar, you can tell due to the way he's holding it. Nice comment tho :D
Herp Zone, please do your research (about Adam not having an idea on how to play the guitar) before you say that. Nice comment tho :D
You are so right, and that's why Adam is my favorite artist
Love Green Adam, Tesla, and most every other genius in history
Thank you Adam Young for having me this one.
Today....few minutes ago... my daughter ( I don't see her since 3 years)..dedicated this song to me 😍
" and even though I'm a little taller, I still look up to him "
damn.
I read this while he said it
Your damn right!
Yep it's
nuh u really don't understand!!!
Logic
I can't get halfway through this song without getting tears...anybody else with me?
Granger.
same :']
Yes
I feel ya mate
I feel you there i am proud of my dad he is getting through cancer and I believe he will beat it
I lost my dad in ‘05 and this song...dang...brought tears to my eyes. Adam’s one of my all time favorite songwriters and all around musicians.
Condolences bro 🙂
I showed this song to my dad a few years back. When it ended, he just said “nice song”. No hug or anything, just that, and almost immediately he left. Since then I think his heart is not made out of gold, but of ice and stone. It hurt like hell. But I came to understand he showed me his love by working his ass all day 'till night, every day, so that I had everything I needed. That was his way of loving me. And that's why he's my superman.
"And even thought I'm a little taller I still look up to him"
Attila Junior my new fav line from this song
thats a life quote right there 😊
When stupid songs get Grammy awards While this is the pure music. Keep up the good work.
Let's be honest, other than the sentimental value of its theme--which resonates deeply with me as well--this song is musically basic.
@@jind0sh it sounded good, it has sentiments, the words you can feel, the melody is catchy but basic chords....
Is it not what makes it great? I mean music isnt about difficult riffs, complicated solos,
It can be simple but a very nice listen..
The beatles had really simple musics and yet... 😁😁
@@sportsmusicmoviefan85 Sometimes it is the simple songs that resonate with people more than complex ones. I like that Owl City just makes music they enjoy, experimenting with songs like "Fireflies" to see what works and doesn't. It takes one song to get you famous, but talent to keep people interested in the music. Simple chords can be used to great effect with the correct strum pattern, tempo and lyrics. Complexity doesn't make great songs. It is talent, planning and the elements of a song that makes it good
Truth.
Doesn't matter if its simple, sometimes simple thing can move our heart much more than other complicated things. Ed sheeran is an example most of his old songs are simple but yet more touching than the songs that wins Grammy's and other awards. Well I love this simple song.
My dad died nearly 10 years ago and this song has touched me... reminding me of everything my dad was to me to my family before he was taken way to soon..
Even tho my dad left while I was 13 listening to this songs gives me the courage not to hate him and builds up enough pride to talk to him when the moments right , Thank you adam
I lost my father to illness 5 years ago when I was in high school. I think about him every day.
This song is so incredibly powerful in so many aspects ... while my dad may not have built tree-houses, he helped me build many school projects and other fun toys. My dad loved working in his work shop and tinkering around with small engines. My dad let me drive his dump truck down pit roads, and run other heavy equipment when he'd take me to work. My dad fixed everything and anything around the house, and built 80% of our house on his own.
I'm now 21, and going to school at the U.S. Air Force Academy with aspirations of becoming a pilot. I wouldn't have gotten to where I am without my dad's ferociousness, tenacity, and perseverance. I'm working hard every day to impress my hero.
Thank you for being my hero, dad. I love and miss you so much!
**Edit: Wow, thank you all for the incredible comments and support! Reading each and every one of your words brought both tears and a smile to my face. I currently am less than 100 days out from graduating from the Air Force Academy and commissioning as a Second Lieutenant. About a month ago I received the amazing news that I have been selected to attend pilot training after graduation to become a U.S. Air Force pilot! Life is so good. :)
I lost my Dad too three years ago. It was so sad. But we gotta keep on fighting. We got this. ❤💙💛
@@sophiejenkins6635 You are incredible. I don't know you, but you are already a role model for me. You are correct, we got this!
@@jamesmannette thank you and you are too. We are all incredible for fighting despite of stumbling down in the past from obstacles. I don't know you too but I hope every dream of yours will come true. 🌹
@@sophiejenkins6635 You have no idea how happy your comment makes me, you just made my weekend. I hope every one of your dreams come true as well. You are so loved!
@@jamesmannette thaaank you. ❤💙💛💜💚😊😊😊
So glad it made you happy. 😊
Getting Sky Sailing vibes from this!
TheMysticNarwhal back home vibes
Setiadi Raihan Same here. Like overpowering.
TheMysticNarwhal SAME
To bring back Sky Sailing....that would be a miracle
Yep man. Those Sky Sailing days were awesome and this is too.. Owl City in 2017... a perfect combination 😀
I lost my dad last year November this song is just what I need right now...
Great song. Lost my dad on the 3rd of October 2022. Pops was 88. Memories. Thanks dad for everything
This is what the charts need. Originality. The charts are boring and basic, Adam enjoys what he does and is so genuine with a great creative mind. I love this guy
Needs more humility, and less of thesame format.
Remember when the greatest artiats like Queen, Beatles, etc. were here? Yeah, we want those type of people
Anything this man produces is always so incredible and I'm never disappointed.
Six years after I agree to it
Same here@@Sheperdy
I covered this on the electric violin for my dad and saw him cry for the third time in my life
This song choked me up at a wedding I was working omg this hits so hard on the feels.
Who else misses these treasures, where the lyrics are actualy creative, with unique rymes and actualy motivational meaning?
I want to see hands, people!
Raises three.
Mateus Rocha *Raises four hands*
(Floats on air) ME!!
(Fly to sky) Woohoo !
(Gets 6 octopuses and I know they don't have 8 arms, but... whatever) RAISE THEM, OCTOPUSES!! YEP!! WE GOT 50 HANDS UP!!!
I think you've captured something that many artists have forgotten: Simplicity is best. This song is melodic, moving, and beautiful, in a simple, real way. Thank you.
Jolie Carroll yeah
True that
This song hits so much different after actually losing your father. I didn't expect to need to cry every time I came back to this. But they're tears of joy. Everything in this song describes him to a T. For a few minutes, it's like he's back with me; So beautiful and impactful. Owl City is God's gift to this earth. I miss you, Dad. I'll see you again one day.
I can feel u even if my dad didn't die. but he is acting like we are not here. he is not drinking or smoking but he said how much he actually hate us...
Can't believe I didn't hear this gem before this. Always loved Owl City but this song just blew me out of the water. It's perfect. LOVED it!!! Thanks guys, you are amazing... "Some folks don't believe in heroes cause they haven't met my dad" & "He doesn't always say I Love You, but I can hear him Loud & Clear". Absolutely beautiful. Definitely doing a cover of this for this year's father's day.
Absolutely love the main guitar riff Adam, such an inspiration to me and my song creation.
Adam Young deserves music awards and deserves some big concerts like worldwide concerts, screw those people who drag his name and his career down they don't know any better in life.
I agree
I agree
Wonderland I agree
True
Agree but his songs sound very simaller to eachother
I dedicate this song to my dad who passed away 9 days before... He lived a beautiful and meaningful life, Thank you Dad.. You are my hero ❤
I hope he continues forever this is a really heartfelt song
I love how much you can tell Adam is at that place finally where he can do what he loves; make music. And not only that but about what he loves; his family, his life, and God. He's come so far and I'm so proud.
Just saying but he hasn't made a song about God so
Galaxies, Meteor Shower, My Everything, Not Alone. All of these are about God. XD. I don't know where you have been. He has made lots of others so...
Sadly, those are all the things that i wished my father was to me. He kind of was the opposite. But i still love him. And when i become a father i wish to be everything to my child that owl city sang about.
me too. actually i am now. i can perfectly feel how my dad used to feel. ready to let go alot of things for few "other things".
Not all parents are good parents. But we can still learn from them and become greater than we were and, hopefully, better parents ourselves.
I understand what you mean. Sometimes our parents show us how not to be parents.
I’m sure you will. Rooting for you!!
Well said bro
Adam your voice is magic, i love this song.
My dad passed when i was 4, but this song remind me how much he loved us. And i wish we still have him .
I lost my dad 1 day after this song was released...and it hits home and it hits hard really bad...Thank you, Owl City, for this song! U have no idea how much it means... 😞😥❤
hopenlk im so sorry for your loss... 😥
hopenlk hey Buddy sorry for the lost
hopenlk iam sorry for the loss
My dad also passed away 2 weeks ago... I really wished I found this sooner and share it to him
So sorry to hear that Yarida...I'm sorry for your loss...I know what u mean...
The best song to sing every father's day :D
He is my Hero.. My Daddy. Rest in Peace. Miss you dad :(
Such a sweet song brings tears to my eyes
even though I’m a little taller
I still look up to him
:)
Good Treat On Father's Day , A Happy Father's Day to all Father's!
rAUSTINm best line
rAUSTINm he doesnt always say I love you, but you can hear him loud and clear!! This one hits me in the bones !!
wow. how can anyone think that beautiful
XD lol
my first born son was born this morning. the kind of father i want to be 100%
Congratulations. I hope you'll be a great father.
Congrats, man!
Congraduations, new father!
Zachery Morrison you will be
Whatever you do, DON’T DROP HIM!
2024, still back to here again. Long live to all dads in the world
Papa should hear this and know he is loved and appreciated you the hero dad❤
his voice has changed hasn't it? loved it. He has a really healthy fanbase!! not a single dislike in this video yet!
It has. Voices tend to deepen as you mature. He also is a lot more confident at singing at 30 than he was at 20. There's more power behind it, but it still conveys sweetness.
Attila Junior he sings more relaxed here too. I like it because it's feels humble and real. like something a little boy would sing in a talent show, with his father watching him from the audience :)
I would like to listen he to sing like that in the next album
Attila Junior his voice just sounds less electronic like in a lot of his music. Not a bad thing, just different
yes please keep it up 😄
No vulgar words, no half dressed woman, no alcohols nothing only pure music
Edit :- Never got so many likes.
Yes this is called the real Music
Rhittick Chatterjee and that's why I love the songs from him❤
And a humble person singing
Rhittick Chatterjee ..but you can tell he snorted a little coke though lol...
Yes much better then other stupid music
Who's watching this today ? Happy father's day to all dads out there. Thank you for your sacrifices for us.
I'm a dad of a 3 and a 2 year old and frankly I really aspire to be half of what these super dads out there are, including my own. You don't really fully appreciate them until you are one yourself and truly see the sacrifices they make for you. No words can ever express our love and gratitude for them and they never ask for anything in return.
The real underdogs.
Hug your dads when you still can.
When Owl City upload a song, I feel like I'm opening a Christmas gift! 😊
Alpha Walker that's the best explanation on what I feel right now!! I thank you!
Al Jester Dela Cruz My pleasure!
Alpha Walker thats right!!!
You're not gonna be happy when you hear his new song "All of my friends"
OMG so I do ;(
I hope one day when I have a son or even a daughter they feel this way about me.
Update: 3 years later and my wife and I are expecting a baby girl in October. I will now be given my chance to be a good father!
+Travis brown I bet they will. Even if it isn't shown, it doesn't mean the love's not there.
Vocisoffaun shaw thanks😊
I wish too man...
Travis Brown same here
Happy Father's Day
Happy Father's day to everyone but specially to those who lost their loved ones in this tough period. You are all heroes!
Owl City stopped me from committing suicide. Now that is a artist that I love. Thank you Owl City you made me see life in a whole new lite.
HONDATRAP yeah he's truly a hero
And so are you😚
HONDATRAP there are people that loves you even if you don’t have anyone now. try also you are awesome don’t ever surrender life is precious sorry for my english
Just remember there is always light at the end of the tunnel and people do care about you
Rather than finding someone to love you, find something to love instead.
This is the first Father's Day I am spending without my dad, who passed away last November. I really looked up to my dad, and almost every line in this song reminded me of him. Thank you for writing such a lovely song
Oh my tears, my heart, I pray my babies look at me like this. We have had a storybook life. We replaced TV with us and people laughed at us. All of life's greatest achievements and accomplishments revolve around our memories. I feel sorry for all the fathers who have failed there children. My life was not complete until my daughter was born in July 1991, I deployed to war in October 1991. It was there I knew she was why I was on this earth. I returned and made my son who was born in Oct of 1992. What a blessing he is. I deployed again and again. In September 1994 my second daughter was born, God once again blessed me. This song has me baling. It hits so hard.
Thank you Adam for the beautiful song. Our fathers (and mothers) can be blessings to us. Although my father died many years ago, I still can see his eyes smiling at me. He was my hero.
This song is so underrated it should be on the treading 😍
Ameen Hegazy trending*
why hello there grammar nazi and underrated comment
Yash Gurav you literally just did
Evan Oliver actually I didn't. I would've deleted my comment the moment he would've edited his comment. I've seen people come at such comments with much worse reply
7 years ago I heard fireflies and now im hearing his latest song feels old eeyyy?
Once i was 7 years old.
Blind Monk oml. It just hit me like a train how old Adam and I are getting. Time flies so fast
time fire flies so fast, eh? lol
i never actually feel that old because i still look and will probably be called young but it does show how fast time flies and how years can feel mere minutes
What an amazing creation, and to hear your natural voice again is a gift
Every fathers day i listen this song such a wonderful artist
The world has many men but very few fathers.blessed and fortunate are those who have a father to walk them through the path of manhood
he raised a great man
Suraj Narine very true my friend...... Am proud to be a good loving caring Dad to my daughter..... Hope one day she calls me her Hero
I LOVE IT! Owl City will always be my favorite! It just touches me in a way nothing else does!
Chantal Vreeland Same here :'D
yessss
You have no idea!!
FOREVER
My dad died 3 months ago. He taught me all of that. He taught me how to be the best version of myself. Thank you for everything Dad. Thank you
My adopted daughter dedicated this song to me. Though I can not talk to her now. This will always be my song from her. Thank you Pumpkin!
As much as I listen to Owl City, this is my first time hearing this song. It was beautiful. I can’t relate because idk my real dad and the dad I grew up with was an abusive piece of garbage. I have 3 sons of my own now and living every single day trying to be the best I can be to them so that they have a hero to look up to and look back on when they’re older.
May God bless you and your family 🙏
Im so sorry for you i wanna be like you some day
Be a good family man brother 😌
Wow that touched my heart
Spoken like a true dad. Proud of you man
I lost my father three days ago cause of doctors' mistake. Thank you, Owl City, for helping me to stay alive in any life situations. I miss my Daddy so much, I wish i could hug him for the last time and say 'i love you'. Hope he knows it.
I'm sure he does, and I hope you will get to see him again one day.
Does anybody put onion here :"((
Same happened with my Dad a year ago. I miss him a lot. Wish I was a better son😟
Same thing here
But of the other doctors are even more insane... they forgot they left all the TOOLS inside the patient's stomach and it was patched up, they would be a dick if they still need to charge that.
I'm playing this for my father-daughter dance. Thank you, Adam! No song fits my relationship with my dad better than this song.
man im in tears. this song is awsome. i lost my father to a heart atack in 2007. He was my hero. The night before he passed he said i was going to become the man of the house. He told me i had to protect my sister and my mom. Forevermore I could hear it in his voice that he wasn't well. When the next day came my life changed forever. I was only 15 years old. thanks for the music. It made my day.
