From there, Owl City reimaged some of the track into acoustic versions including “ The 5th Of July” from Reel 1, “ Montana” from Reel 2 and “ Be Brave” from Reel 3. The tracks from these were then compiled into an 18-track full-length, Cinematic, in 2018.

Most recently, the musician dropped three EPs titled Reel 1, Reel 2 and Reel 3. Since the release of Ocean Eyes, Owly City has released 2011’s All Things Bright And Beautiful, 2012’s The Midsummer Station and 2015’s Mobile Orchestra. “I was the recipient of 1,000 hugs from 10,000 lightning bugs for a grand total of 10,000,000 hugs,” he writes. Turns out, each bug hugs him a thousand times, as Young thoroughly explained on his Twitter. So what's going on here? Does each of the ten thousand lightning bugs hug him a thousand times? Do only a tenth of the bugs hug him? Or does the swarm improbably take on a humanoid form that then hugs Owl City a thousand times? These are the questions that keep us up at night. Owl City whipped up a particularly strange lyric in his first hit single, which leaves us with some obvious questions. Much to every scene kid’s glee, Owl City (aka Adam Young) finally explained how he gets a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs. THIS IS SOOOOO GOOD!!! LUV IT!!!

Yeaaahhhh! Awesomw Comment by furiouscatlover When I'm not happy, I just listen to this over and over Comment by GourabIX This sound is in Waving Through a Window by Owl City too XD, you do not lie to me. In the basement of an empty house I slept on the floor like a vagrant I braved a Minnesota winter night And drove to a movie feeling lonely And as I thawed my heart out by the light Of the silver screen I was unaware that you were there In the dark, a silhouette Was climbing up the stairs And what I thought In the parking lot Was like, I just wanna know your name I drove away With not much to. Thanks for this track❤️❤️❤️ Comment by nofrem This melody might be one of my favorites you've ever done Comment by femmy Good morning indonesian Comment by Sunny Bow Bunny Just beautiful, there are no other words for this. one I'm proud of, and I feel mentally aware of my whole self as well.

This song helps me be much more aware of things I could have never imagined. The same melody to his Hello Seattle Remix Comment by Jungle Monkey It almost sounds like a musical! Comment by 2090
