  • Owl City - Beautiful Times feat. Lindsey Stirling [Official Promo in 2014] Lyrics
    Cover Art: Rob Helmstetter
    Source: OwlCityMusic.com
    "Beautiful Times. Deeply subjective and personal, it has a dark beauty I find compelling and the essence of the track offers the idea that life is wonderful despite the burdens and afflictions that seek us out. It is an anthem for those who search for strength to rise above hardship."
    "I want everybody to take away an uplifting vibe. Dig a little deeper and let the message resound. I hope people walk away with a sense of optimism. I’m always in my own world, and this is my way to invite everyone in."

    Wow- 4 years. FOUR YEARS. This song, it helped me through such a hard time. I was depressed, questioning everything in my life, battling anxiety and fear. I literally listened to this song almost every day. I was always pretty happy and confident, but I was at a time when all my beliefs were shaken and I didn't know where to turn. "When did the sky turn black? And when will the light come back?" was exactly how I felt. I can tell you, "But I made it alive. The sun's starting to rise. This fight of my life is so hard, but I'm going to survive." Thanks to the grace and peace only granted to me by Jesus Christ, I can truly see how even that darkest moment of my life was a part of these "beautiful times." I do not even remember that person now, who was so afraid. God has brought me through the storm. Know that he will bring you through yours. I know it feels dark now, but I promise, it DOES get better.

      Adam's quotes in the description - "It is an anthem for those who search for strength to rise above hardship." Congrats, you overcame yourself.

      Thank you. Though, I couldn't do it in my own strength- it was God's love and light that carried me through. I would still be in a dark place without Him. He deserves all the honor and glory :)

      I know it’s been 2+ years since you commented this, but I am in the exact same boat. I had not listened to any new music from Adam since Ocean Eyes Deluxe and when I saw my friends posting about Owl City releasing new music, I was shocked and also learned he had released two whole albums since. I was in possibly the darkest mindset I had been in since middle school (summer of my senior year) and this song and entire EP really helped me jump down from the ledge. Up All Night is the song I equate to saving my life the most but I am so thankful I rediscovered Adam’s music and it allowed me to finally be happy again.

      Kevin Kelley this is beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Adam’s music is something different. I truly have not ever found an artist quite like him. I am glad you have found joy!

    I miss this game! It was a cool way to get the free song, ahh the Ultraviolet EP remains one of my top favs from Adam. Really wished he had continued with that direction tho..

    I never knew about this game on Owl City's website until my friend told me about it after seeing this right now.
    This must be the most cool way to get such a beautiful song for free.

      Which game are you talking about ?

    • @MuditHyanki
      @MuditHyanki Před 6 lety +7

      This clip is actually from a game which was on owlcitymusic.com around the time the song was released. You had to make the boat reach the Light House and when you did it, the song automatically starts downloading for free.

    How do you guys personally interpret the song? For me, a few lines stand out. One in particular is the line: "A can driver, turned to skydiver, then to survivor, dying to breakdown." To me personally, it is a cab driver who joins to the Army and becomes a paratrooper. He survives a war, possibly D-Day in WWII, and is wanting to breakdown and let it all out but cannot for any number of reasons. Just what I personally think of when I hear that line. That's what I love about Adam's, more specifically his OC project songs; he writes the song with his own interpretation, but I can find an entirely different interpretation and maybe even one that describes a current state in my life and his song helps me with it. Just my opinion. :) What's yours?

    What good times was this little hidden game back then! I can tell you know you're a hoot owl when this is the only reason why I ever signed up for a Facebook account! 😅
    My first ever post was about the Owl City concert I’d just attended with a friend and her older sister as a birthday gift! Oh, what a memorable night that was… thank you Adam for a brilliant birthday for my friend! ❤️
