owl city was the definition of my childhood, im listening to his songs since 2012, im just 7 years old that time, no overthinking, no thinking of money, just living life, damn i miss those days.
Im a fan of owl city since 2010 and this music gives me nostalgic feeling everytime i listen to it its gives me happy memories 😢 and im still listening in 2021
I love the "Back to the Future" vibe this song has, definitley seems appropriate for listening to Owl City songs. Everytime I finish listening to one of his songs, it's like I return to the future.
It's literally the delorian from movie he's in. But he's fake driving it, being towed or greenscreened or something. Cause the owners didn't want to damage it
miss you adam. your songs held a demension that has yet to be matched. they held feeling, talent, and love. you made songs that changed peoples hearts. i know they changed mine.
THAT'S MY FRIENDS CAR!!!!! Long story short, I met Paul "Doc" and his wife Reba, they visited a friend of mine's church which he is also friends with this person and me and many other people got to take pictures get in the car. Paul & Reba are both apart of the Fireball Run that's on Amazon! My profile pic is of me in the exact same car that is in this video. :) Awesome knowing that Owl City/Adam Young was in this car just 5 years before I did! And well 30 years before that Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@stingrayxd8748 My friend's friend does still have the car. He had it in a museum for a little while, but he's got it back now. I love Back to the Future as well, such an awesome movie!!! I got the Hot Wheels DeLorean time machine for Christmas. It's the part 1 edition and the details to it are amazing!
Was I the only one who realized: "When beauty met the beast he froze." In Beauty and the Beast, Beast's real name was "Prince Adam." Owl City's real name is Adam Young.
The song represents dilemma and confusion every man goes through.. honestly it's best to enjoy on your own..if u can do this, life is a heaven and peace!!
Owl City deserves more views he makes better songs than other singers like Justin Beiber and Bruno Mars. All his songs are filled with creativity and wonder and I love each one he makes. I can't stand the rap music they make nowadays all they do is cuss and sing about inappropriate stuff, but Adam is a good person all the time. I know I can always count on his music to cheer me up when I'm sad. :)
Literally grew up obsessed with owl city and lights!!! How have I never noticed her in this video before now?!?!? I ducking love you both!!! Miss you Adam💝
I grew up listening to owl city his songs were played since i was born on the radio, cds, etc. And everytime i listen to his song it reminds me why i started making music in the 1st place thxs adam for being such a cool dude
At 1:39 when he says "headlights" I love the detail of making the camera shot of Lights appear in timing to split the word head-lights because of her name, Lights. 🙏✨
This song was made after Adam thought someone recognised him and tried to talk to her but she pepper sprayed him. She actually was a huge fan, just didn't recognise him. What a dude to turn a funny story into such a banger of a song
Back in 2011, I lived on the West Coast, near SF. I went to a summer camp near LA once, and my family took it as a chance to visit Disneyland. Or was it Universal Studios? I can't remember. Anyways, I remember listening to this song on my mp3 while waiting for our car to get into the parking lot. Yeah, it was Universal. The parking lot was a purple building that had something funny on the top, overlooking the cars that came in. I was eleven at the time, and the reason I liked this song was because of the MV. The DeLorean was something even I, as a young kid, could recognize, and it fascinated me to no end. I can't remember the exact reasoning my mind went through back then. I try to remember, then I think about the life I left behind in the States. It hurts. I made so many memories, but everything's a blur now. I wish I had made more.
I think we can all agree that Owl City is the best artist we've ever had! Keep making music! Litterally couldn't live without it, everytime I'm feeling depressed you remind me why I have to keep pushing!
+ΛCΣ ™ i think it's because the girl punched him, indicating that what she did was because the girl didn't like him and thought he was a maniac or something.
dareDimanator I know the feeling the same thing happened to me I switched to original TH-cam music for a few years then came back to this and still can sing along perfectly
bro, i listened to this song so much when i was younger. now im back, and this brings so much nostalgia and memories....this was posted 1 year after i was born...love this son so much
Met a girl in the parking lot, And all I did was say hello. Her pepper spray made it rather hard For me to walk her home, But I guess that's the way it goes. Tell me again was it love at first sight When I walked by and you caught my eye. Didn't you know love could shine this bright? Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights. Met a girl with a graceful charm, But when beauty met the beast he froze. Got the sense I was not her type By a black eye and bloody nose, But I guess that's the way it goes. Tell me again was it love at first sight When I walked by and you caught my eye. Didn't you know love could shine this bright? Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights. It's suffocating to say, But the female mystique takes my breath away. So give me a smile or give me a sneer, 'Cause I'm trying to guess here. Tell me again was it love at first sight When I walked by and you caught my eye. Didn't you know love could shine this bright? Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights. Tell me again was it love at first sight When I walked by and you caught my eye. Didn't you know love could shine this bright? If life was a game, you would never play nice. If love was a beam, you'd be blind in both eyes. Put your sunglasses on 'cause you're a deer in the headlights. You're the deer in the headlights. You're the deer in the headlights.
+TheDestroyerWill how do his music videos connect? so far i watched fireflies, deer in the headlight, when can i see you again and my everything and i didnt see anything that connects
I fricking love Owl City & Adam Young. His music got me through some the darkest points in my life. Elementary- High School. I love me some Owl City ☺️
One of my youngest son's favorite artists, he is 12 and I am 62, we have done a few intents to record covers with their songs but as he lives in Miami and I in Stockholm we always run out of time. But I think he has good taste, I like these guys too... #owlcity
This is one of the songs that sold me on Owl City. His clever way of putting phrases and colloquialisms together was and is inspiring! His lyrics have become a lot more linear in the past couple of years, but he's still good.
this and vanilla twilight are my two favorite two songs no questions asked, I remember my older sister introducing me to owl city all the way back in 2022, then i remembered the song at the end of wreak it ralph and realised that it was owl city
I love this song. It's easily my favourite Owl City song and just my favourite song in general. I relate to it so so much, getting lost in fantasies when reality is just rejection so I stay in the realm of my imagination dancing and laughing off the words said to me
It's been a long time i didn't hear this song, but you have to trust my story I was working on Mall as Security officer. One day i was on charge in basement which has a parking lot and a cafetaria. While i was on duty, there was a woman from one of many tenants who wanted to have her lunch. As she going downstairs by escalator, We're staring each other, before i said "good afternoon" to her. This event is exactly almost as same as this song's first lyrics. Mr. Adam Young, your songs amused me. I am a fan of you since "hot air balloon".
who else just randomly had the urge to listen to old songs and drown in feelings and memories? yeah, me too.
Me
Me
Exactly 😂😂
Craze Dhark me
I rember when this song would be on my playlist on my IPod touch lmao how times pass
"Her pepper spray made it rather hard for me to walk her home"
That was probably the best opening verse for song I've heard in a long time
Adam has some hilarious lyrics XD
I've always liked the way he delivers it.
Damn this line is the nice guy anthem
and you are also late
We are never late nor early,we are here just at the right moment.
owl city was the definition of my childhood, im listening to his songs since 2012, im just 7 years old that time, no overthinking, no thinking of money, just living life, damn i miss those days.
His songs still make me feel this way
Same man❤
아울시티의 음악을 들으며 공원을 걸으면, 매우 행복했다
Do you need to think of money that early?
you have nice memories kid
Im a fan of owl city since 2010 and this music gives me nostalgic feeling everytime i listen to it its gives me happy memories 😢 and im still listening in 2021
nice me too ^_^
same here my guy
Yeah... Me too bro 😩♥️
i feel you g 😪
i was a fan since 2009 i really like his music
I love the "Back to the Future" vibe this song has, definitley seems appropriate for listening to Owl City songs. Everytime I finish listening to one of his songs, it's like I return to the future.
It's literally the delorian from movie he's in. But he's fake driving it, being towed or greenscreened or something. Cause the owners didn't want to damage it
I love how unique and oddly imaginative Adam Young's music videos are.
EVERYONE HERE IS A BRONY. Such coincidence.
Pegasister.. XD I drew my profile photo :3
Reach4Reach no why is there so many bronies
brandon nason-mclean That's great! :3
BunnycatXDAJ If this is a conspiracy, I can promise I am not involved.
miss you adam. your songs held a demension that has yet to be matched. they held feeling, talent, and love. you made songs that changed peoples hearts. i know they changed mine.
Yeah I wish he still made music (he hasn't publically retired from music, but from his inactivity I'm fairly sure he's done)
100% Agree
@@rubberduck3062 He's got a new album coming out in the fall!!
He even posted a puzzle on his IG related to it.
@@MauriceMossisitnot Yeah I saw that I'M SO EXCITED
@@avionaturalelaminar4645 it's so good I know, can't wait for the rest
Still here in 2025! Love you Adam!
(Also the subtle reference to alligator sky at the end was a cool touch)
It just feels like I heard this yesterday and it's already 9 years!!!
Nostalgic!
The most underrated artist.
He's made the best magical songs!
This guy has so much creativity and he's just so unique in his music. Love it

Amazing!
This Message for Owl city, I hope you start doing more songs for us because your songs changed our life for the better.
This is what I call real music ... I wish you come back Adam
what happened to him?
Galaxykinz he hasn't made a song for about a year
+MrRighto Jake when was galaxy and vergeM
He has been working on a project - Adam Young Scores that recently just finished. He is now making Owl City music again I think
jyu 11 I think we all do :)
Was I the only one who realized:
"When beauty met the beast he froze."
In Beauty and the Beast, Beast's real name was "Prince Adam."
Owl City's real name is Adam Young.
hi
OoOoH!!!!! That’s cool! I didn’t know the beasts name lol.
woah
I genuinely had no idea that the Beast from Beauty and the Beast actually had a proper name.
I just call the prince "Prince Hairy"
Nothing now can compare to this pure joy.
If there was ever a song about Marinette Dupain-Cheng, this would be it.
YES LMAOOO ABSOLUTELY
The song Adrien plays in his head anytime he sees Marinette
Found ya
You told us to listen to this song so I did hahaha, great video👍
Oh hello!
The song represents dilemma and confusion every man goes through.. honestly it's best to enjoy on your own..if u can do this, life is a heaven and peace!!
Since middle school i love Adam and Lights, 24 now and i am so thankful for them
I'm watching this in celebration of back to the future day!
Yea
:)
Nice profile pic. Bo Burnham is best
Little note: It's one of the original cars from the film!!
Owl City will never get old. Thank you for all the memories.
All Owl city song
is the best!!!
Owl City deserves more views he makes better songs than other singers like Justin Beiber and Bruno Mars. All his songs are filled with creativity and wonder and I love each one he makes. I can't stand the rap music they make nowadays all they do is cuss and sing about inappropriate stuff, but Adam is a good person all the time. I know I can always count on his music to cheer me up when I'm sad. :)
Murica be like
Justin Beiber doesn't make good songs period. He can't sing to save his life :p
IKR!!!
Every song engages me with it's magical world it so creatively creates, Adams songs are dogs with new tricks every time
OH FUCK NO MORE THAN THAT
Literally grew up obsessed with owl city and lights!!! How have I never noticed her in this video before now?!?!? I ducking love you both!!! Miss you Adam💝
you know the girl in the video ?
I grew up listening to owl city his songs were played since i was born on the radio, cds, etc. And everytime i listen to his song it reminds me why i started making music in the 1st place thxs adam for being such a cool dude
Wow, the ending with him finding the future version of himself is either a cool easter egg or REALLY deep.
I think it was an easter egg, the suit he's wearing is the same suit in "Alligator Sky"
In the ending
When he stops the car the guy who is standing in front of him is actually adam young from the Alligator Sky(just a theory)
I always come back to watch this music video to see Lights at 1:27 . Even now, she's the most beautiful woman around
2025 after 4 days and I’m still listening to this master piece
For him it seems like a normal day to see a jellyfish floating and a T-Rex casually roaming around
t-rex represent the "JURASSIC WORLD
At 1:39 when he says "headlights" I love the detail of making the camera shot of Lights appear in timing to split the word head-lights because of her name, Lights. 🙏✨
Plus you can hear a subtle sound effect that comes from her song February Air in the beat
This song was made after Adam thought someone recognised him and tried to talk to her but she pepper sprayed him. She actually was a huge fan, just didn't recognise him. What a dude to turn a funny story into such a banger of a song
I used to listen to this song all the time in middle school, s/o to Owl City for making my childhood lit AF
1:55 OMG THAT IS FRICKIN HILARIOUS

love the story
This is one of the most upbeat sad love song I've ever heard
any original fans still listening in 2019?
You're certainly not alone, good sir.
ive always been here. I refuse to listen to current music in my playlist there is not a single song from after 2015.
Its 2019 and I was still listening to the songs.
Carolyn Myers I find it hilarious that the comments section is so dead on this video that this comment is all the way on top in two weeks. Lmfao
i'm always coming back
BACK TO THE FUTURE!!!!!
I dont know why this song is undervalued
One of the energetic song ever heard
I love how Owl City provides such well done surrealness.
I think we can all agree that Owl City is the best artist we've ever had! Keep making music! Litterally couldn't live without it, everytime I'm feeling depressed you remind me why I have to keep pushing!
THESE SONGS ARE WHAT MAKE LIFE WORTH LIVING!!
How much I love this man.. He is just so cute
"~Got the sense I was not her type by a black eye and bloody nose~" XD that line tough
meaning he fought people or had a fight with someone so he could be with her
+ΛCΣ ™ i think it's because the girl punched him, indicating that what she did was because the girl didn't like him and thought he was a maniac or something.
Gabrielle Masalunga that too, but it could be she thinks of him as "non decent"
+ΛCΣ ™ yup i guess so!
+Gabrielle Masalunga Its cos pepper spray gives you a black eye but I'm pretty sure she must have punched him cos "bloody nose"
this takes me back...I miss those simple days
I forgot this song exsisted for about 3 years, still know the words better then most songs
dareDimanator I know the feeling the same thing happened to me I switched to original TH-cam music for a few years then came back to this and still can sing along perfectly
dareDimanator ight;hub
Ok but for 2011 THE EDITING AND CGI they got a DIONSAUR AND THE DELORIAN ?!?! MV’s nowadays need to take notes
bro, i listened to this song so much when i was younger. now im back, and this brings so much nostalgia and memories....this was posted 1 year after i was born...love this son so much
I love this song so much 😭 It brought back memories
9 years later... TH-cam recommend me this legendary song again lol xD

2020 and still loving him

Thank god I grew up listening to Owl City
is nobody going to talk that Adam is casually driving around in a DeLorean ?!?!
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ADAM, You almost ran over a parallel version of yourself
Imagine if the video ended that way. We would be reading very different comments :)
Nah I think it was just future version of himself
Met a girl in the parking lot,
And all I did was say hello.
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
For me to walk her home,
But I guess that's the way it goes.
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye.
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights.
Met a girl with a graceful charm,
But when beauty met the beast he froze.
Got the sense I was not her type
By a black eye and bloody nose,
But I guess that's the way it goes.
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye.
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights.
It's suffocating to say,
But the female mystique takes my breath away.
So give me a smile or give me a sneer,
'Cause I'm trying to guess here.
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye.
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights.
Tell me again was it love at first sight

Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
If life was a game, you would never play nice.
If love was a beam, you'd be blind in both eyes.
Put your sunglasses on 'cause you're a deer in the headlights.
You're the deer in the headlights.
You're the deer in the headlights.
Thankss
This song is so masterpiece and wonderful Owl City you still got it
I miss the old OC, 2009 to 2015 is the best era. I miss those days 🥹
Adam's mind is crazy and odd and unique .. And I love it!! He's exactly like me! Except, I can't fathom my thoughts into amazing music like him :)
Loyal fan never forgets. I love owl city and this won't be faded
2015, a new album coming. Well done Adam Young, very clever...

I love how his music videos connect together!!!
+TheDestroyerWill How do they
Andrew Smith The ending connects to "Owl City - Alligator Sky ft. Shawn Chrystopher"
Andrew Smith Actually that's how I interpreted it, it could just be an Easter egg....
TheDestroyerWill oh okay
+TheDestroyerWill how do his music videos connect? so far i watched fireflies, deer in the headlight, when can i see you again and my everything and i didnt see anything that connects
Never thought this song will bring me nostalgia . And here we are .
How I was I could go back to these simpler times😭
I fricking love Owl City & Adam Young. His music got me through some the darkest points in my life. Elementary- High School. I love me some Owl City ☺️
I didn't realize how funny the video was when it first came out. Haha it's good to see Adam having fun!
One could say...
...that deer doe. :D
lol, nice
doe in the headlights
Sonny Daye dat pun doe
Id eat that
You tell elk jokes.
the final shot is a person in an astronaut suit.
Just like the alligator sky music video.
just realized, wow.
I also think Lights is a beautiful girl. I'll never forget her appearance in this video!
One of my youngest son's favorite artists, he is 12 and I am 62, we have done a few intents to record covers with their songs but as he lives in Miami and I in Stockholm we always run out of time. But I think he has good taste, I like these guys too... #owlcity
That's awesome
Oh and BTW Owl City's just one guy :P
New House Production Studios Did not make a background check as usual, silly me...:)
I always wanted to go to Stockholm :)
Age is not an issue in liking any type of music , i love trance and techno and am not exactly a spring chicken :-)
Annabelle I was born there
I love owl city, they have always have great beats to back up their songs.
Owl City's not a band, he's a person. I'm a big fan of him. His real name is Adam Young.
I still listen to Owl City and I still listen to LIGHTS
Listening for the first time.. Yet feels like I've known it for years... Only Adam's voice make me feel that way❤️.
This is a song about a nice guy being mistook for a creep, we really do live in a society
OMFG i knew it was a good idea to give his other songs a chance THIS IS AMAZING O_o
gonna have this song stuck in my head for WEEKS 😭💯
2010 Electropop songs are the best. A real shame that this genre of music died out.
April 2020: Deer In The Headlights 💚
May 2020: Deer In the headlights
Me to brother haha
June 2020:
*Deer in the headlights* 💙
July 2020: Deer In The Headlights 💚
July 2020 Owl City✊
it's so sad that people say that their music style is repetitive,
to me their music style is perfect.
miss those simple days, just listening to this. an innocent kid in this world :(
This is one of the songs that sold me on Owl City. His clever way of putting phrases and colloquialisms together was and is inspiring! His lyrics have become a lot more linear in the past couple of years, but he's still good.
Last time I heard this song was pretty much a decade ago. Came here randomly and it still feels so fresh even today..
With all that’s going on with 2020, we all need this kind of music. It fills the soul and satisfies the whole being.
I don't understand how can someone dislike this concentrate of perfect awesomeness. I rewathched it 10 times
AMAZING!! :D
this and vanilla twilight are my two favorite two songs no questions asked, I remember my older sister introducing me to owl city all the way back in 2022, then i remembered the song at the end of wreak it ralph and realised that it was owl city
I miss owl city...
2019? Anyone?
Yeah, and still listening to him. He didn't go anywhere, plus you can still listen to his old songs.

Your music will always and forever be my stress reliever. Thank you sm.
nice back to the future car and the song is awesome
It's called a "Delorean".
oh ok lol
He se herself in future and its on the alligator sky =]
Haha I didn't realize it was the back to the future car until I saw the T-rex.
lol
I wish my world is as magical as Adam's
I love this song. It's easily my favourite Owl City song and just my favourite song in general. I relate to it so so much, getting lost in fantasies when reality is just rejection so I stay in the realm of my imagination dancing and laughing off the words said to me
The world just wouldn't be the same without the extraordinary music of Adam Young. A true child of Christ if you ask me. ;)
He is cause he is Christian.
Its 2023 now and im still here, listening to such a good song like this...
Still listen this song in 2021
Suggested Owl City to one of my classmate when she was heartbroken, and now we are together ❤️❤️
Thanks for making such awesome songs, man ❤️💯
The crossover at the end with alligator sky!!! Omg it always gives me chills. Whose still watching in 2022?
"It's suffocating to say, but the female *mystique takes my breath away" XD

+Death Mushik It's mystique. Wannafightaboutit?

The Delorean from Back To The Future! I loved the whole video and the music.
I remember driving in a place like this. but after i woke up i had a terrible headache

this is adam's most sarcastic song
It really is tho XD

Why?
