<3 Recently, I've fallen in love with this band. I really like Rainbow Veins, Fireflies and Strawberry Avalanche. Anyone else like this band? Share your favorite songs. <3

I was just about to start a thread about this, but you beat me to the punch. The first song I actually heard by them was Rainbow Veins and I just fell in love with it. My favorite song that's pretty tough but I might have to say Tip of the Iceberg, Hot Air Balloon, and Fireflies. :D

I don't know much about this band, but I do know they're hot right now. They remind me a lot of the Postal Service, so if you like Owl City, try them out. They're awesome. I'll have to get the Owl City album and actually take a listen to it in its entirety. I've only heard one song on the radio...

You guys do know that Owl City is only one person, right?
He's Adam Young. When he tours he has other people on drums, piano, backup vocals, and strings though.

I got to see him in concert the 27th of October and he was amazing! I totally recommend getting tickets to see him if you can.

I love all of his songs but some of my favorites which are quite a few are Designer Skyline, On the Wing, If My Heart Was a House, The Bird and the Worm, Tip of the Iceberg, Saltwater Room, Cave In, Meteor Shower, and I'll stop there or else I'll just list all of his songs...heh. I feel bad leaving out so many of the older songs, but I've just been listening to more of his newer songs lately so I have them on my mind.

And I've heard Owl City compared to The Postal Service before too and I just don't get it. I haven't listened to all their songs but what I've heard I like. I don't think the feel or the sound reminds me of Owl City besides electronic elements which almost every band adds to their music these days.

@sukishine: I actually did know Owl City was one person! I keep correcting people when they refer to Owl City as "they".

I first heard Fireflies, but personally I prefer Dental Care for its wittiness, Fuzzy Blue Lights for the lyrical content, and Meteor Shower for fluidity.

Once again, not to burst you bubble but its one dude. Anywho i was reading a blog forum about him on another website and they said he was a carbon copy of Postal Service, I had to go and listen to them to confirm and I do hear some similarities. What do you guys think?

I've known for a while now that Owl City is just one person. Though when I'm vocally talking about Owl City, I tend to say "they" and I think it's mostly because my brain seems to automatically think with a name like that, it sounds more like a band name than a single artist name. That and it's just amazing that one person does so many different parts.

As for my favorite song by him... I think it's Rainbow Veins because that's the first song that I heard. Though I also really like Saltwater Room and Technicolor Phase.

That's what I thought when I heard Fireflies on the radio the other day. It wasn't until I started looking around that I figured out The Postal Service didn't have a new album coming out. :)

My friend forced me to listen to them when she found out I liked Fireflies. I'm glad she did, lol. I like The Saltwater Room and Hello Seattle. And Dental Care as odd as it is.

[COLOR="Purple"]OMG! I love owl city. My friend showed the band to me and I've been in love with their music ever since. Mmmm... my favorite song from them is probably Hot Air Balloon. Their music makes me feel like I'm in a whole new world of fantasy.(that's pretty weird isn't it, oh well) All of my friends love owl city. You can't live one day in my school without hearing Hello Seattle at least twice. Lol but I love it. [/COLOR]

I'm not sayin its bad but u cant understand 80% of what theyre saying. Its just mindless yelling. Atleast with firelies I can understand his lyrics. but im an alternative kind of person, but pop is ok every now and then.

I got their album, but sadly I only like fireflies, maybe one day I'll learn to like their other songs.
