I'm in exactly the same situation you are. I fell in love with this song in 2009, and when I realized people were starting to make a meme of it a few weeks ago, I was excited to the point of tears because I had a feeling things like this would be created, riding the meme. It happened with All Star, after all. This arrangement may be impossible, but I'm now filled with enough determination to learn to play it, even if a simpler version of it. I can only hope that other Owl City songs will follow.
Every 2 weeks I am so depressed then BGH comes up with something new and I have a feeling that I only have twice a month. It's a mix of happiness and joy.
Makes me cry because it reminds me how many times I listen to this and so many of his other songs. As I sing to this, it reminds me of some really good friends I had. They ALL love your music and Owl City's. We always would sing along and know every single word to the Owl City songs. Those were the good days. But now I'm moving to Africa and I probably will never physically see them ever again.. :'( I love this song so much, I have it on loop.... thank you, honestly, Bob. (BGH Music) :'D
Woke up like a minute ago to hear fireflies earrape played in my ear by my brother, checks TH-cam because notifications and crap and find this. Good job
F*ck, you still make videos! When I was 10 I absolutely ADORED your videos! I'm now 13 and have re-found your channel and once again binge watching all new and old! Keep on doing what you do!!!
I've been subbed to this channel for a year now it keeps getting better I do have leave comment much so yeah but I've been subbed for a long time when you were at 100k subs I've been here since then keep up the good work
BEFORE YOU COMMENT: 1. Your= belonging to or associated with the person or people that the speaker is addressing.2. You're= Short for You Are (typically used for describing people.)Now your sure to have good grammar
YusufSefa Can I don't call myself a lover but I really do like this song. As soon as I saw the notification for it, I immediately clicked and watched to listen to this marvellous audio
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 (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) 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)
CoreExen That was part of it, but people also started making videos with the song being played incredibly loud and distorted (ear rape), much like many other meme songs.
I'm not familiar with this becoming a meme, according to comments, but this song fills me with nostalgia. Man, it's been such a long time since I heard this…
It's so surreal to see a song I liked in elementary school become a meme. I'm off to college and people are making awesome remixes. What a time to be alive. (^.^)
so wonderful, my favorite song, turned into a meme, now an impossible remix. such beauty
Something Here And you're being positive on the internet. Both of you are getting likes from me.
What a nice little comment chain, likes for all of you!
WolfGamerGirl I rue the day when some troll comes along and disrupts this piece of happiness that makes me believe in humanity again.

OWL IS MY CITY
HeyItsRin England is my city. I can rap, but I'm not from Compton.
HeyItsRin A HOOTOWL!!!
xxprogamer24 it's also the name of the band...
5 years later and still beautiful
I unironically enjoy Owl City music, and I love that this song is a meme in the hopes that more people will listen to his music.
This was my favorite song for 9 years, and still is, and always will be.
glad to see one of my childhood songs is becoming very popular on the Internet
No replies on a comment made 3 years ago from a verified user? lol how
And I'm surprised someone replied very recently. wth
In one of my choir concerts, my choir sang this. Thanks for bringing back good memories
*internally screaming*
*silently screaming*
*quietly screaming*
*fangirly screaming*
*screaming screaming*
A S C E N D
Mud Kip
*HEAVEN*
We have reached the scream limit.
Everyone can go home.
Captainskylink HootOwl eh?
None of these emotions are happening to me.
Woke up like a minute ago to hear fireflies earrape played in my ear by my brother, checks TH-cam because notifications and crap and find this. Good job
as usual, another great work of art by this wonderful talented man.
I love this guys piano skills and music
Please, please, please play this at my funeral
F*ck, you still make videos! When I was 10 I absolutely ADORED your videos! I'm now 13 and have re-found your channel and once again binge watching all new and old!
Keep on doing what you do!!!
Good song...I used to listen to fireflies whenever I had a fight with my family.....
atleast it helped i hope
Are you kidding me it's the worst song ever XD
are serious connor? its one of the best songs ever made :D
Connor O'Brien let me guess, you listen to hip hop and dubstep Like every other 11 year old that doesn't like this song?
BatDuck no, I don't really listen to any dubstep or hip hop, but I'm 13
I got so hyped when I saw the notification. I love this song. This made my day.
I've been waiting for this song! Thanks Bob :)
Bob was his name in his old channel name. It was Bob GMB
YAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSS I LOVE OWL CITY AND HIS SONGZ, THANK YOU FOR MAKING AN IMPOSSIBLE REMIX OF THIS
Looks like he fell into the meme hype
Monster Slayer *looks at rage comics avatar* who doesn't?
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL SO MUCH I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SONG best ever thank u all
I've been subbed to this channel for a year now it keeps getting better I do have leave comment much so yeah but I've been subbed for a long time when you were at 100k subs I've been here since then keep up the good work
Can you make an impossible remix for viva la vida by Coldplay?
chasedog the first I second that
Yes that will be good
I love your channel because it's not just piano you put to your pieces, the bass and drums take it so far
I remember when this song was popular for it's nostalgic, relaxing and fun lyrics,
and not for flipping memes ._.
Amy Yu I know right.
I never realized it was for the memes
Now I’m sad
this honestly makes me so happy:) this song was my whole childhood
Love it :o
The sound is so INCREDIBLE! I LOVE IT!
Do Viva La Vida by Coldplay pleeeeeeeease!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG Russell Kramer YESSSS COLDPLAYS ONE MY FAV BANDS "EVER" YESSSS PLSSSS DO THISSS
you must listen this: viva la vida from david garret: th-cam.com/video/bZ_BoOlAXyk/w-d-xo.html
Russell Kramer HELL YEAH
or bitter sweet simphonie
i think you absolutely perfected this video! nothing is ever perfect but if there was an exception to that rule it would be this!
BEFORE YOU COMMENT: 1. Your= belonging to or associated with the person or people that the speaker is addressing.2. You're= Short for You Are (typically used for describing people.)Now your sure to have good grammar
I'm just gonna point out now that was intentional.
You're an idiot
Well played
Crown King
No need to capitalize "Short" and "You Are" though...
You misspelled "your" in the last sentence, but you probably meant it on purpose.
fun fact: Bob plays all of these songs live as he records them.
He also smokes steel beams and drinks nails.
By far the best impossible remix on TH-cam. Like if you agree so Bob can see!
EgMusic nah, I will always love his 1,000,000 sub video and fairy tail theme, but this is definitely up there.
Just imagine how cool it would be if you went to a piano store and started playing these remixes on the pianos.
It wasn't a matter of if this was gonna happen, but rather when.
Italian Stalion I don't think he made it because it's a meme
The end... its so beautiful.... omg 😭😍💕
1000 hugs from 10000 fireflies

The most beautiful version of this song you probably could ever hear
is this song like 7 years olds? why is it back all of a sudden? xD
Eric Plays Memes
Eric Plays why not :3
Jean Del Valle I mean it is popular bc of memes -_-
Jean Del Valle And what do you mean by *Memes should stop being memes*?
BlackScreen memes are just getting annoying. and cringe should not be a existing word
I've been subscribed for so long and the channel has changed a lot.
Good!!!!!
I've forgotten how much I liked this song. And this remix is beillissimo
I think I speak for a lot of ppl here, but I think you should do a linkin park/Chester Bennington tribute
dude u make my day when i watch your musical talent bro thx
Owl City Lovers ❤
YusufSefa Can I don't call myself a lover but I really do like this song. As soon as I saw the notification for it, I immediately clicked and watched to listen to this marvellous audio
Wait, people listen to this unironically?
I don't think so
Are you saying it's a bad song?
Jαѕσи Tσdd Why wouldn't we? The song wasn't made as a joke, Adam made it to portray his mind and thoughts when suffering with insomnia.
This brings me both good and bad memories. It's a beautiful remake and I love this channel, Keep it up.
BGH MUSIC Please do an impossible remix of Attack on Titan season 2's intro "Shinzou wo sasageyo". Like so this can be seen PLEASE!
Triphus Gaming
SASAGEYO SASAGEYO SHINZOU WO SASAGEYO
Jesus Christ Have half of a potato my friend.
Eh
You know what would be a great video, a RWBY medley, RWBY is known for really good music
I hate three things-
1. Comments
2. Lists
3. Irony
"I hate... ...Comments..." - wrote you in COMMENT
Phoenixpony Rose lmao
There is one thing, one thing I hate, ONE THING I cannot stand!
Stupidity!...
...and Ignorance.
DavideoGamer 55 you and me both.
Oh, that irony sure is the worst, ain't it?

🅱ire🅱lies
I haven't heard this song in so long! Amazing work once again!
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 (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)
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)
Glad I came back to this.
Am i only one who is singing text? :3

Hello Guys it's too late you already are one
Pancake Prince true these comments are redundant and stupid
YAYY MY PHAMILYYYY
Hello Guys I have to like your comment because your profile pic is Phan XD
Tori Lynchard The Phandom is everywhere, my friend. Especially in memes.
My favorite song. I have my own sheet music and i now play along with this!
whats the meme? not on the internet much anymore
Flyingspacepotato deadbambi The meme is that song ^
CoreExen That was part of it, but people also started making videos with the song being played incredibly loud and distorted (ear rape), much like many other meme songs.
CoreExen or maybe you get a hug from ten at a time
But this would still make it ten hugs
Love the key change at 2:32.😂
like if this is the best music ever
You did this better than anyone else, keep up the owl city.
Want to here a joke?
YOUR LIFE! 🤣🤣🤣
JK, SHOW THIS TO YOUR FRIENDS!!!
Devesh 123 YT Want to hear a joke?
Your spelling!
Devesh 123 YT Hear*
NyctoDarkMatter Bruh. If you're gonna roast someone on their spelling, at least make sure your spelling is correct. Like c'mon, it ain't THAT hard
Gsnunag256 I did though? My comment isn't edited. XD
Gsnunag256 Though technically it was a homonym error, so I guess I used the wrong terminology, but still.
I love this song, listened to it all the time when i was younger
4 view 38 likes, nice youtube
SlimeYTOficial 103 likes 6 views lmao
I think views only count if someone watches until the very end
right
SlimeYTOficial this is old
Views only count if people watch the first 30 seconds of the video, yet likes can be given before this is achieved.
This man added captions! What a legend!
who's here before 10 views?
Me lol
Cookie im the 8th
After 9 years of the song. 9 YEARS.
I'm early time to make a joke
Donald trump
anything else
HM Kim I'm guessing you like CNN?
HAHA FUNNEEE POLITICAL MEEM SO RELATABLE
This is a joke? How is it a joke? It's literally just using Donald Trump's name as a punchline. It is in no way humorous, you fucking donkey.
^^^ This man, Edgy Edginton, speaks for me.
This is so beautiful - now you need to remix Fireflies and All Star together :D
SIMPLY AWESOME, keep up the great work
I ❤ everything about this channel!!!!
I love this song. I'm happy it was impossibly remixed.
Neat. Just neat... It's absolutely nice and calm.
Love this its so beautiful.
BobGMBH you're the best piano player ever
This was awesome!
I don't care about the meme.. the song is the song
I liked this song before it was a meme. Beautifully done.
I'm not familiar with this becoming a meme, according to comments, but this song fills me with nostalgia.
Man, it's been such a long time since I heard this…
that actually brought tears to my eyes
Glorious recreation!
It's so surreal to see a song I liked in elementary school become a meme.
I'm off to college and people are making awesome remixes. What a time to be alive. (^.^)
I actually feel like this would be good for a DDR game because of how inspiring it feels.
I unconciously sang this song out loud while I was sitting in the living room chilling with my parents. It was so arkward not gonna lie.
YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE YOUR EYES. IF TEN MILLION FIREFLIES LIT UP THE WORLD AS I FELL ASLEEP.
i just dont know how did this became a meme... i loved this since childhood.. still love this..
Awesome! Firiflies is love!
Put that on my playlist!
thank you for uploading this
I was waiting for this.....
this...this is beautiful
