Adam Young's OLD, pre-Owl City side project. He is just releasing these songs for the first time. Its kind of interesting to take a step into his past =]. Minnesota loves you.
I so so love this version. The way the piano comes in on the second chorus, without any drums, it's so pure and perfect. I'm so glad this video is still up.
Brielle (pronounced: Brie-luh) is also a beautiful little town close to the sea in the Netherlands. Walking through the picturesque streets of this historical village, while listening to Adam's nostalgic and melonchic music, is a mind lifting experience.
this album was my anthem when I was 14-15. takes me back. Adam is such a musician genius, I hope he never let's the industry dull his artwork like they did for TMS.
This is still my favorite version of Brielle. Aside from DRIPPING with memories and nostalgia of high school for me, there's something so much more raw and natural and extremely.... vulnerable about this version...
There's a handwritten note Pressed in the door Of her screened-in porch And I am sailing away Recalling that day Miles from shore She was still wearing white And Robin's egg blue Her grandmother's dress When I left home early this year How I wound up here Is anyone's guess When the new sites grow old And I start to feel cold I'll sail home again Goodbye, Brielle Only seasons can tell Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well I'll see you around Our dear ocean town The frozen days We set ablaze Sent me drifting away Like a butterfly I floated by And now I'm alone I wish I knew when I'll be back again So until then I wish you well My dear Brielle Skipping over the sand In cobblestone paths That wind through the trees Breathing the sweet ocean air Makes a shy boy aware That he could be free When the new sites grow old And I start to feel cold I'll sail home again Goodbye, Brielle Only seasons can tell Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well I'll see you around Our dear ocean town The frozen days We set ablaze Sent me drifting away Like a butterfly I floated by And now I'm alone I wish I knew when I'll be back again So until then I wish you well So until then I wish you well For the time being, farewell My dear Brielle
this has a dreamy feeling to it. I always imagine my soul mate standing facing towards me in a bright happy place, knowing that whatever I go through, I will always come home to be loved :)
OMG... this photo is taken right on the shore of Lake Michigan in Chicago right in front of where I live. I haven't had this much fun following a new artist since the Beatles. Adam we love you, even your older fans. You give everyone hope in this desperate age.
This sounds amazing, my heart just remelted from the first time it did when I heard Salt Water Room, On the Wing and Panda Bear a couple years ago... Truely a Fan... *btw*Adam is even more Perfect, live than recorded :) He and Lights would make a spectacular galactic adorable epic touching song that would never ever be able to be topped :) ...If only more music could be like this...
YOU KNOW GUYS, what i like about this artist, is that, he had a unique songs....it puts me on the top of a silent sanctuary....it keeps me on a good mood everytime i hear his musics....love it and i appreciate this song by adam young....5 stars for this...^_^
I must admit I first heard about Adam Young just when the masses did (-> Fireflies). I was blown away, so I immediately bought the whole album + bonus tracks from iTunes and listened to it 24/7 :) Meteor Shower made me cry. I totally fell in love with Adam's kind of music and his thoughts and feelings he expresses in his songs. And now I fell in love with this. It's hard to desribe in 500 letters.
I won't argue. I'm going to say that I agree with your description box. Enough of that. This song is so pretty! It makes me smile, every single time. Thank you for posting this!
i am so happy for Adam. he is the greatest inspiration to me. he is perfect, dreamy, and quite possibly my favorite person in the world. oh Owl City, you have never failed me....
holy shit im glad i found out about sky sailing, god i cant seem to really like anything else besides adam's stuff. First owl city, then swimming with dolphins, now sky sailing...adam young you are a musical genius!!!
when i first heard of adam young, i went to check out the rest of his work and i loved it all. i got pissed whenever somebody would call him things, and i would fight back. i guess what i did was wrong. all i wanna do is listen to his music because of the beauty of the lyrics, and its melody. adam young's helped me a lot through my life, whenever i would just feel... ugh.. i would just listen to him.. it would make me feel better and get a weight off my chest.
Wow. It´s true that Owl City/Sky Sailing it´s around the world. I´m from Argentina, the other side of the world. It´s fantastic see another fan from so far!!
Quite frankly, I could care less what Adam's stage/project name is. As long as it's Adam Young doing what he does best -- which is making beautiful, soul-touching music -- I will be always happy to listen. He's got a knack for making all of his songs like ear candy for us headphone trippers. And the way he phrases things is just the cherry on top. I could listen to him forever :)
I discovered Owl City through the radio and promptly bought Adam's albums under his Owl City name. I had no idea this project existed until I heard it on the radio yesterday. I love, love, love this song. Adam is so talented, every time something new (or old) by him, I am so impressed. His music is so easy to listen to and it's so relaxing, you can't help but like it.
+Mike Rice This was the original version. When Adam complied all the Sky Sailing songs to put on the An Airplane Carried Me To Bed album, he re-recorded and edited a few of the songs, and this was one of them.
this is amazing. :) I love how his songs have random titles but they have so many meanings...we def. need an artist like this these days...:) Adam Young is so talented. I'm loving this. :)
wow. oh my gosh. ahhhh. he's freaking amazing. buying the album, without a doubt. i've been waiting for this to come out on iTunes for entirely too long.
It's an unexplainable feeling, how happy this music makes me. It's not even happiness. It's peace. Content. I can't imagine what he must have been picturing when he wrote this. And i think that's the beauty of it. You can put your own story with it. :)
I just want to give his music a giant HUG! I love everything Adam does, and seriously, if I could have a soundtrack to my life, his stuff would be it ♥
I'm gonna name my daughter Brielle and then I'm gonna sing her this song every night when she goes to bed. I love Adam's work so much from Port Blue to Owl City to this now! So amazing...
Genius. Pure Genius. Sky Sailing, Owl City, Adam Young, whatever his name is, is just amazing. Every song is great. I definitely cannot wait for this album to come out!
I thought that Owl City's songs were the best ever because I felt like made me feel like my real self ( if you can understand that) but that was before I discovered Sky Sailing. thanks for posting this :D
Hadn't really started listening to Young's music until mid/late 2009 when Fireflies was released on the waves, but who cares if that makes me a n00b fanbear? I just wanna give Adam props on his side endeavors and that I'm glad that he's released his Sky Sailing music after three years...
owl city is defnitely one of the most amazingg bands around all his music actually means something to him and you can listen to it all day and never get tired of it mann he definitely deserves the fame you got that right
I ♥ Adam no matter what the name of the band name is I will always support him This song is amazing 60 days till the album comes out! Im super excited!
Před 12 lety
It's so interesting to hear the original version of this song, even if the audio quality is less polished. Thank you for posting this :)
Adam makes me happy no matter what. His music always makes me feel lighter than before, even if they're slightly bittersweet. He's creative. I like it. =)
I love this song. Adam's an amazing singer/songwritter. :) this song makes me happy. I can't wait for this cd to be available in canada ! ps. whoever wrote the description; AMEN :D
"For the time, being farewell..."
"I love you, my darling, farewell..."
I love both versions!! He wrote this when he was 19
I so so love this version. The way the piano comes in on the second chorus, without any drums, it's so pure and perfect. I'm so glad this video is still up.
this song made me cry.
i love owlcity/skysailing.
Adam never lets me down
Brielle (pronounced: Brie-luh) is also a beautiful little town close to the sea in the Netherlands. Walking through the picturesque streets of this historical village, while listening to Adam's nostalgic and melonchic music, is a mind lifting experience.

this is truly one of the best songs i've heard in my life.
This is still my favorite version of Brielle. Aside from DRIPPING with memories and nostalgia of high school for me, there's something so much more raw and natural and extremely.... vulnerable about this version...
Brielle... the name is music in itself.
There's a handwritten note
Pressed in the door
Of her screened-in porch
And I am sailing away
Recalling that day
Miles from shore
She was still wearing white
And Robin's egg blue
Her grandmother's dress
When I left home early this year
How I wound up here
Is anyone's guess
When the new sites grow old
And I start to feel cold
I'll sail home again
Goodbye, Brielle
Only seasons can tell
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well
I'll see you around
Our dear ocean town
The frozen days
We set ablaze
Sent me drifting away
Like a butterfly
I floated by
And now I'm alone
I wish I knew when
I'll be back again
So until then I wish you well
My dear Brielle
Skipping over the sand
In cobblestone paths
That wind through the trees
Breathing the sweet ocean air
Makes a shy boy aware
That he could be free
When the new sites grow old
And I start to feel cold
I'll sail home again
Goodbye, Brielle
Only seasons can tell
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well
I'll see you around
Our dear ocean town
The frozen days
We set ablaze
Sent me drifting away
Like a butterfly
I floated by
And now I'm alone
I wish I knew when
I'll be back again
So until then I wish you well
So until then I wish you well
For the time being, farewell
My dear Brielle

Special place in my heart for this song. This version specifically. Since 2010..
Goodbye brielle only seasons can tell of the sweet dreams we knew so well, beautiful turn of phrase for chorus, cheers for this tune!
he says seasons instead of whispers
i wonder whats life like for adam young
+Charlene Charles Magical :)
It's 2015 and I still love this song.
It's 2024 and I still love this song. 🩷
When I think about heaven, I always hear Adam Young's music on the background....
this has a dreamy feeling to it. I always imagine my soul mate standing facing towards me in a bright happy place, knowing that whatever I go through, I will always come home to be loved :)
Adam Randal Young
OMG... this photo is taken right on the shore of Lake Michigan in Chicago right in front of where I live.
I haven't had this much fun following a new artist since the Beatles.
Adam we love you, even your older fans. You give everyone hope in this desperate age.
I knew that I like Adam's music, but now I can say that I LOVE it.
Who likes old Adam better than modern pop Adam?
Count me in.
you're absolutely right!
Becca Schopen What about not compare and like both xD
2 me he has 3 versions. His original(this one), pop version, and his newer christian/original one. 1and2 are my favorites!!
Old Adam touches my heart better!
There's two versions: one with whispers and one with seasons. Just thought you'd appreciate knowing.
is there a story behind why there are 2 versions?
This sounds amazing, my heart just remelted from the first time it did when I heard Salt Water Room, On the Wing and Panda Bear a couple years ago...
Truely a Fan...
*btw*Adam is even more Perfect, live than recorded :)
He and Lights would make a spectacular galactic adorable epic touching song that would never ever be able to be topped :)
...If only more music could be like this...
I'll sail home again X..
what I listen to when I'm stressed, or tired, or simply wanting to daydream :)
YOU KNOW GUYS, what i like about this artist, is that, he had a unique songs....it puts me on the top of a silent sanctuary....it keeps me on a good mood everytime i hear his musics....love it and i appreciate this song by adam young....5 stars for this...^_^
