Owl City “Fireflies” Cover Song Smackdown


It’s time for this week’s COVER SONG SMACKDOWN, this time with Owl City’s “Fireflies”.

Three indie artists recorded videos of themselves playing pretty cool live covers of Owl City’s “Fireflies”, the #4 single in Billboard this week. (I’m actually a fan of this guy ’cause he’s a DIY musician…he recorded his entire album in his basement. Awesome.)

For those of you that want to sing along, here are some of the lyrics to “Fireflies”:

Owl City - Fireflies Lyrics

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You’d think me rude, but I
Would just stand and stare.

I’d like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly.
It’s hard to say that I’d
Rather stay awake when I’m asleep,
Cause everything is never as it seems.
