The little kid is not committing suicide, he has made a boxcar with wings which will take him from one island, where he is stranded, to another island, where his mother is waiting in their home for him to return. Umbrella Beach is a surreal view of the story of The Prodigal Son. The song is all about how the boy ran away from home, then realized what he had done, and at that, went to great lengths to undo the pain he had caused his mother and thus decided to return back to his home.
'Home will always be here, unseen, out of sight'.
These are his resonating thoughts, memoirs, of home, while he is away and on the run.

I don't know, I know this comment's been recycled for a few years now, but now that I'm looking at it, it looks as if they're all on the same island; the island in the distance looks the same. So maybe the scenes of the boy were the past and his assumed parents look for him everyday in the future
Green Poo I sorta feel that while there might be a conontation of the kid suiciding, i feel that its more towards the kid achieved his dreams and left the little island, and his mom is waiting for him to come home and his dad is up on the roof to see if theres anyone coming from the mainland
And then they both die, the lady and the son, the father is in heaven, looking to see if his wife and son are okay, the son runs away because he can't deal with the pain of losing his dad, and the mom builds a boxcar to look for her son, the son builds a boxcar to look for his mom, they die, and join the dad in heaven
+LPSkippy I know there is a lot of rumors but I don't think he commited suicide
Wow
i will forever love owl city. all these songs really throw you back into a younger version of yourself, the nostalgia is strong. it almost hurts
frog man yea iam one think with you If i have epic dream i was remember owl city music
Few lost boys..One lost mom..Home out of reach, understand..Umbrella I'll hold keep you dry. protected, I have always walked in rain hoping to heal every pain endured but my own. That's truth..Love...
It does hurt
everytime i listen to his music it hurts because i know im getting older and still coming back to his music and just reminds me of being a teenager listening to this and man i wish i could go back.

You betcha! How could we not be here? 🔥

I love Owl City :)
hello ✨
Owl city..in 2021, I still miss this your song even after ten years later
Me toooo
@@Nabajyoti_Falls here man
Literally
Why? did he go somewhere?
Same, for me this was the only good part of school years
Owl city's music is something amazingly different 😁
ikr :D
Same is Carly Rae Jepsen but Owl is Christian
Listening to owlcity is like going in another world for a while
Kshitij Pandit you know many people have said that to describe owl city’s music, and I can’t say I’m different 😃 it really is surreal and other worldly, makes me think I’m still a little kid playing around
his music go through our minds
if any of you are wayching this have a nice day ^_^
+Richard Peach thank you oh kind person u have a nice day to! :)
I just now realized I misspelled watch xD
awww thanks (:
+Richard Peach you too :)
+Richard Peach watching*
I cried listening to this when I was 13 and being so far away from home. I still cry to this now, but not as much. It's one of my favourite songs..
Owl City creates music that brings you out of this world. He uses the natural world for his themes. He does not need half-naked twerking ladies, kissing scenes, money showing, and showboating to make his music become so loved all the world over.
2024, this song is eternal
his music sounds like a video game
he's 90s kid
i perfer the 90s style of electirc music to todays electronic music.
probably because of the hihats and synths that make it sound like it's from a Sonic game 😊
It sounds like the sims
Guys, this video is not about dying. It's about the exact opposite - living!! Don't you get it? Adam made the lyrics, which are quite vivid and imaginative, why wouldn't the video be, like when the kid flies, he really pursues his own dreams. Seeing you guys caring about whether the boy dies or is okey ruins it all. This is an uplifting video :D
+HannahDN97 Thank you, Hannah! People are getting frustrating to me.
Exactly
I wouldn’t say it ruins it all and as a side note I do think it would be a valid concern going down the hill like that lol but I agree with you!
14 Years Of Umbrella Beach 🦉🏖️♾️🎶 X..
The line "underwater ferris wheel" makes me actually picture a ferris wheel that's underwater with an underwater theme park all around it. And the "home is a boxcar" line reminds me of the Boxcar Children book series XD
same!

cool :D
Rose Aikins
yeah it's good :D
Wow, so I'm not the only one!
and I see I'm not the only one who likes the Sonic series too XD
Why are all of the good artists like owl city not getting as much popularity as the trash that they play today.
Today music is too trashy than 4 years back. I almost feel like music industry is dead
I tire my brother
Zackairy Jani cause our society is trash
people have differing tastes, bro
Today is even worse
Holy shit...
I can't believe it's been 6 years.
I bought this album about 5 years ago and so much has happened in that time.
It feels so nostalgic and weird now, listening awkwardly to the music I used to listen to everyday for hours on end.
Sorta makes me miss back when life was simpler.
I truly understand this
I feel exactly the same

you must be 25 now. remember this song?
That is so awesome, still like owl city? 10 years later?
This now-25 year old guy is our case study into how owl city has aged. We need answers, son.
is your account still active? Now I'm sure you were 26 yo.
I saw him two days ago! Hope you still like him!
I love the wonderment in his eyes when look at what he found. Reminders of days long lost.

"Umbrella Beach"
Stems and gears, oh how the daisies bloom
When chandeliers light up the engine room
Can you feel the drops as it starts to rain
There's an underwater Ferris wheel
Where I found the missing link to this island chain
Home will always be here, unseen, outta sight
Where I disappear and hide
I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye
So I'll spread out my wings and fly
Home is a boxcar and it's so far out of reach
Hidden under umbrella beach
Home will always be here, unseen, outta sight
Where I disappear and hide
I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye
So I'll spread out my wings and fly
I'll spread my wings and fly
Home is a boxcar and it's so far out of reach
Hidden under umbrella beach

The kid is Dead and his parents are still waiting for him . The Song is about a beach ( Umbrella Beach ) where people go after they die and the boy wants to get back to his parents :)
Oh.
+Left Handl wow, I didn't know that...
Deep, huh?
+Left Handl yeah....
what is it about then?
"There's an underwater Ferris Wheel where I found the missing link to this island chain" is such a wild quote.
Still my all time favourite Owl City song - very dreamy, I remember listening when I was younger. Dreaming of the ocean and this song(and many others) became my own place ‘to disappear and hide’
Damn I miss the old days! No problem just wearing may earphones and chill
Feel that one 🤝
Umbrella Beach
by Owl City
Songfacts®:
This is the first single released in the UK by Owl City, an Electronica/Pop project of Minnesota native Adam Young. A self-described "shy-kid," this song reflects Young's desire to escape in dreams and hide away from life's pressures.
Young explained to Female First: "'Umbrella Beach' is about a hermit living in a box car on the edge of the shoreline that corroded so badly, it wound up at the bottom of the bay. Rather than finding a new home, the hermit chooses to learn to scuba dive and now spends his days deep under the waves in his boxcar."
I always forget Umbrella Beach also got an official music video alongside Fireflies and Vanilla Twilight. This is one of my favourite songs-especially Long Lost Sun's remix.
I want to visit this place someday
where??
minesotta
i think this was shot in england. i forgot where but i think it is in england
***** This is in minesotta.
Hope Cove,England :P
Oh man it's been a good 10 years since I've heard this song... What a throwback.
I can't believe I was only 8 when this song came out...Man, time flies.
Me too :D
No man! Fire flies 😂
Ashar Siddiqui hahaha nailed it
same, man i miss it, single digits were the best years of my life
Space Cadet. zo do fireflies
Can't believe it... Listened to this song like 3 or 4 years ago for the first time, and yet
STILL people are coming here everyday and hearing this for the first time.
Another thing, the last time I listen to this song was way long ago, but I still know almost all of the lyrics! Hehe...

still listening in 2021
2021. this album is incredibly nostalgic to me, even though i only stumbled upon it recently. i wonder why.
@@miragetheultra Maybe you listened to it at some point in the past, forgot about it, and then rediscovered it recently.
2021
we never left
I love this song so much. It gives me straight dopamine to the mouth.
My most favorite artist ever ❤️
I remember listening to this as a 10 year old when it came out, was my favourite song.. still amazing tbh
+Chuto yep i was 9 first time i heard it😎 but then forgot the song😢 and the artist till i heard it again on the radio and wrote down the as soon as i found out his name. my fav song from owl city is fireflies 🔥🐝
Sometimes all you need is some Owl City to get through the day
Only people who are NOT from TiKToK can like this comment.
pls dont mention tiktok ever
Like baiting
Hoot Owlers forever
tiktok’s rubbish … 🤖
Genuinely a fave, vbeen listening to him for like. Almost 7 years
The kid is chasing his dreams. The mom simply ponders at the distant city, meanwhile the dad cowardly observes it through his binoculars. Ahh this video unsettled me. I wish I could've understood this concept as a 15 year old. back when the video came out.
I think this is the best explanation of the video
you remind me of holden caulfield, I despise english and literature personally and am mainly exclusively interested in mathematics and science although you seem to value youth, and the many numerous beneficial qualities and attributes in which it is associated with and I certainly agree with that perspective. It resonated quite significantly with me, and was the only theme other than time stoping and everything remaining the same that remained with me after reading the book. Unless you have a career directly related to scientific, mathematics and engineering and are an adult the youth of the newest generation are the most intelligent, least ignorant RELATIVELY although that can be argued, eager, and willing to learn, and be productive for the fun, satisfaction and euphoria involved when compared with adults. Adults focus only on personal gain and gain for others, monetarily and morally after a while, gradually which seems to be a monotonous, and increases their ignorance, obstructing their view of a larger reality, which in turn, causes delusion when becoming very elderly and prevents creative intellectual thinking. Oh society I hate you, and social rights that you create and foster the existence of, held exclusively by adults, other than substance use laws and driving- from anonymous
Hii, how are you people doing 😃
I'm a die-hard "Satanic/horror" black metal fan....
But Owl City's older music holds a special place in my heart. I could never hold anger towards Adam Young's wonderfully vibrant and aesthetically pleasing structure
here ... please remind me to listen this after 10 years.. 20 years and 30 years...
Im reminding you that 2 months have passed, and you should probably listen to it again 😌🏖
Owl City since 2012 till 2024 and counting. Thank you Adam...You gave me peace...
내가 더러워지는 것 같을 때, 항상 동심을 잃지 않으려고 듣는 노래.. 아이같은 마음을 쭉 유지하고 싶다..

11 Years Of Umbrella Beach 🦉🎶🎶🦉 X..
owl city most underrated track is this and metropolis
This video is completely metaphorical of Adam Young’s musical career.
The kid is meant to be Adam Young. The boxcar he builds is Owl City.
Just like Owl City launched Adam out from where he was and took him to places he could have never imagined, the boxcar does the same for this boy.
hooomeeee will always be hereeeeee
Unseeeeeen outta siiiiiigght
Whereee iiii disapeaaaarr and hiiiiiiiiiiddeee
This song is somehow taking me back to my childhood, miss that time.😢
i did travelled in time to
I know! Same
Hands down this is Adam Young's magnum opus... in either audio or visual... The whole package of Umbrella Beach just feels artistic!
Adam/owlcity, you created poetic and strong music so strong that it has alot of nostalgic emotions. I'm glad God has given yoi this talent and I was able to here you sing. Keep on singing YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE WITH YOUR MUSIC😊❤❤❤❤
The verse is so good, overall this music is so nostalgic
Why do i cry when i listen to this song
Hey 2020 and soon 2021, I just want you to know that I fell in love with these Owl City songs first than your cool songs today.
I can't seem to get this song out of my mind
Owl City and Avril are my favorite bands. Adam is the Makoto Shinkai of the music world.
Owl City's songs are like a lullaby that can put me to sleep. Love all these relaxing songs!
brings back high school memories ❤️
I came back... Then get goosebumps in the first second
Owl city is beyond comparison😊😊 cameback to the philippines plssssssss we want another concert😊😊

Owl City? More like Sims City!

+Jamie Sharples You should listen to one of his other songs "Ridiculously Happy"... it sounds like it was ripped straight from a Sims soundtrack album
Hearing the first second is enough to send me back to my childhood.
good throwback
It’s like as if Tom Delonge wasn’t trying to imitate Goofy’s voice
All my thanks to owl city, ive just turned to 20 and lots of things go through so quickly and fade away but his song ties me here doesnt matter how old i get. You are amazing Owl City
Home is a"box car" now I get it. I always imagined a train box car.
Kai Widman omg that's so true im shook😱😱😱
OH!!!
Woah when the video started playing I felt like dancing in space with unicorns and mermaids and fairies and there were so many sparkles ..
lmao
I love this comment despite the "whoa" misspelling.
you perfectly put the words together of how I feel when I listen to most of the Owl City songs, thank you! :)
reNINTENDO whoa isnt a word thus you cannot misspell it
You high bruh?
adam young is my current aesthetic 💓💓
Or anesthetic...in my case.
This reminds me of living in New Zealand, probably the best time of my life

It's 2017 and I still listen to Owl City ^.^
It's 2024 now, been listening to him for 12 years now (:
@@ComLbsV Thank you for replying to my comment so many years later. I got to listen to this lovely song again. I have an OwlCity playlist, but somehow all those years back I must've forgotten to put this one in.
@@MemeApocalypse ♥️ glad I reminded u of this gem
Adam was ahead of his time….truly
I have just become addicted to Owl CIty and I regret nothing. NOTHING. Also I typed this without looking at the keyboard :)
If you have good hand positioning, typing without looking at the keyboard is easy. Left pinky on A, LR on S, LM on D, LI on F, both thumbs on spacebar, RI on J, RM on K, RR on L and RP on semicolon. Move a single finger out of home row at a time to reach the other letters (left index down for V, right middle up for I, etc)
Home row position makes typing way quicker and you don't have to look at your keyboard to use it. F and J have slight bumps on them on most keyboards, so you can easily find home row position by placing your index fingers on those two bumps.
5 years later this comment still holds solid as fuck lol
Hi Adam. Been a while buddy

All them kids....dead. Missing kids. The intro tells you that right away.... daisies bloom. Then the chorus "Home will always be here unseen, out of sight
Where I disappear and hide
I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye
So I'll spread out my wings and fly" look at Mom's reality... notice anything?
I actually love this music video. The atmosphere it brings is perfect for the song
please take back to those times
Still moves me after 11 years
So much memories from this song💔
My interpretation of the video is that really and truly the flight was successful. Everyone in the video looks younger than they are really supposed to be. The boy building the flying machine is really an engineer, who plans to prove everyone wrong that his dreams can come true. All this time, the lady in the video is reminiscing about the boy, by looking at pictures or thinking about him building his machine. Notice they are never in the same scene together. When the flying machine is completed the last of his engineer friends who haven't given up on him come to help him and see him off. The flight is successful, you can tell by the proud faces of the boys. but the pilot never comes back. only two believers are left in the whole lot, his mother and one grown up friend, who is seen looking out on the top of his roof for the return his friend. A lot of time has passed since the engineer left. Coming down to the ending of the scene this grown friend catches a glimpse of something, maybe it's his friend, so he take a better look with a binoculars. Maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong- Listen to the lyrics in detail.
12yearss…???❤❤❤
I wander if the kid actually flew. Ocean Eyes is one of Owl City's greatest albums.
When I was 11 when Ocean Eyes came out, I put it on my iPod and would put the album on shuffle and listen to it through my pillow every night while going to sleep.
It's still my all-time favorite album. When I listen to it it brings back memories of a really happy time in my life.

The kid is definitely not dead. This whole video is like metaphore, so you can't translate it with logic. I'm sure; judging by his friends' grin in the end, he flew and he did survive.
Alive, surviving yes, living no. I endured it all, Mother broken when learned truth. Mother Earth orphan ran away, looking for home, pieces of me being angry at the world soon as I can get in and out of the world soon as I can get in sooner on cancellation of what they all have to do with the pain suffering abuse trauma and I get the note that this way my door is a blessing in disguise for u too long ago that song is a blessing in my heart for everyone soul endured terror torture of what they all have to do with it..
We hootowls will always keep coming back to this 😄❤️
This is a 2009 masterpiece, still a great song to hear lately ✨
As my music choices had changed from pop to some pretty neat bluesy John mayer stuff i would never forget coming back to Owl City since this is music i can never compare to anything out there in the mainstream and i still listen to this song even after 9 years has passed and i just happened to watch the Music video again since Umbrella Beach was one of those rare songs so memorable i never fail to forget to listen to this atleast once whenever i travel
Thought the thumbnail was Anakin podracing
Home will always be here.
i will never leave owl city
