  • This is NOT Adam Young. It's Austin Tofte, quit saying it's Adam Young, it's not, goodness.

  • WAAAAAHHHH!!!!! IT'S SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • at one point in the song i thought my computer was having trouble loading the audio.

  • the words are soo cute :]

  • i don´t have one favorite song, all songs of Adam are beatiful things <3 :]

  • Owl City is my fav band, but I'm loving this! I wanna be true to my dear Owl City, but how can I resist?

  • @HelloXXXLonely

    *Cough* It is Adam Young, singing in this song. He was with part of this band before he created Owl City. *Cough*

  • @Jintahanagayahara *cough* Adam made the music *cough* its Austin Tofte singing

  • @TehReeves Y U NO BE NICE TO 22JERMZ?

    X)

  • @22jermz Hipster.

  • Oh, the places we could go

    Chicago, New York and Toronto

    and if it starts to snow

    we can hop train to Mexico

    where we'll sleep on the beach

    with blankets made of leaves from palm trees

    and we'll say "let's never leave"

    and that's when i'll feel the sun creeping up on me

  • Best song of their album end of discussion

  • Mister Magic Panda

  • IT SOUNDS LIKE ADVENTURE TIME!!! dfsd;fnadkfnakjdfnandajndf

  • Flawless song!

  • Guys, this is Adam Young's side project. This is AUSTIN TOFTE singing. T_T

  • This is a copy of owl city

  • @Cinn6 same person.

  • @MIKEYGRUNGER13 -_- Go away. 

  • @MeteorShower97 LOL how did you not know that :3

  • @MIKEYGRUNGER13 Actually, not same person. o.o 

  • @MeteorShower97 suuuuuuuuuuuuure(sarcastic tone) then who is it?

  • @MIKEYGRUNGER13 It's Austin Tofte, Torrie James, Bryant Hammods. :) I've seen them live. Adam isn't a regular member, and it's never him singing. Sorry to make such a big deal of this, but I hate how everybody just gives Adam credit for this project. [Don't get me wrong, he's my idol] Austin and the others are REALLY talented, they make it happen<3

  • @Cinn6 Same Person.....

    look on wikipedia....

  • @Cinn6 LOL K THIS IS ADAMS YOUNGS SIDE PROJECT DUMB FUCKER

  • @Cinn6 lol Adam Young is the artist of both projects: Owl City and Swimming with dolphins. and this one is made by another guy.

  • This was a side project of Owl City. Adam just left 'coz he wants to focus on Owl City. So what y'all arguing about?

  • :)

  • wow. i'm guessing that owl city was an influence on this band? or vice versa. 'cause wow.

  • @ooamaimomooo

    Close. Owl City is part of this band. =D

  • @ooamaimomooo yup authorgirl's right. adam young was in this band =]

  • @drdotacula ahhh, I see. I was going to say, I hate saying bands sound like other bands, but it sounded JUST like Owl City. Now I know why. Hahaha.

  • New Fave! <3

  • The beginning reminds me of the sims sort of lol.

  • It's official - I'm in love with this song <3

  • When you just can't sleep and you're sick of counting the sheep the sunlight in your head just won't let you put the days to bed Pick a place to meet In pajamas and bare feet on a moonlit street move me to the rhythm of your heartbeat Oh, the places we could go Chicago, New York and Toronto and if it starts to snow we can hop train to Mexico where we'll sleep on the beach with blankets made of leaves from palm trees and we'll say "let's never leave" and that's when i'll feel the................
  • Hmm I think the only reason Swimming With Dolphins doesn't attract my interest is because I don't really like Austin's singing style. Same with The Postal Service. I much prefer Adam's. That's just imo, though.

  • Comment removed

  • no its moon people

  • listened to the first 4 seconds and instantly fell in love.

  • Austin, you can hop train to Mexico whenever you want if you bring Adam Young with you it would be better :D just let me know before you do it so I can go to one of your awesome concerts :'D..

    Swimming Wtih Dolphins and Owl city ROCK!

  • because these aren't bands,it are projects.

  • There is so much I could say right now but it would take more than 500 characters.

    So,instead I'm going to say that almost everyone on here is retarded. Yes, even the people with the highest rated comments. You all THINK you're cool because you listened to Owl City before they were popular. But did you listen to Port Blue?

    Do you listen to Sky Sailing?

    What about Windsor Airlift?

    WHAT THE FUCK ABOUT BROTHER REED, YOU HAVE MESSED UP MY AFRO?

    NO?

    Well then.

    Shut the fuck up.

  • @llaammaann Sky sailing is Owl City :P

  • @hisop

    Sky Sailing is Sky Sailing and Owl it is Owl City.

    The difference is one is acoustic and one is electronic.

  • @llaammaann Why not just name Adam Young over and over?

  • @hisop

    It's okay, I did.

  • @hisop

    Because fuck you.

  • @llaammaann Just a heads up, Owl city isn't plural... It's just Adam young, bro.

  • @llaammaann does it really matter?i hate when people think its a competition over who heard adam youngs projects first...do yourself a favor and shut up.

  • @NeverShoutCity and @lollipau1617 i agree strongly, now i will be honest and say that i heard of Owl City though fireflies but unlike the radio surfers ,as i call them, and when i heard every single song and loved them all i now can call myself a fan.

  • @hiyaalisaa Austin Tofte.

  • i really like salt water room.. and this song im commenting on right hurr. :b<3

  • I just found out that a couple guys I know are in a band called KINGfriday, and there's a possibility that they will open for SWD sometime while their in Washington.

    Sooo jealous.

  • didnt know adam young did the music for swd.. interesting.

    i love this guys voice though.. anyone enlighten me to who he is?

  • <3

  • @lollipau1617 and @NeverShoutCity: I couldn't agree more. Drives me insane.

  • This sounds like an interesting blend of Owl City and Postal Service.

    The music is nice, but I don't really like how the vocals are mixed as much compared to Sky Sailing and Owl City.

    It's still pretty good though :)

  • @timwood1104 Adam young (Owl city) Does the music for his friend. (The singer of this)

  • @NcHaley

    I know :)

    I just like Adam's voice and singing style a little better. :P

  • Being tall such as 6ft is an advantage in swimming ?

  • This sounds so bad but I really hope Adam becomes a one hit wonder and he just kind of fades out of the spot light because I prefer being a fan of him when he's not huge and and everyone's all "OMG FIREFLIES blah blah blah". I hope he doesn't become commercialized.

  • is adam young (owl city) in this band?

  • @ForeverPaiige yes

    

  • i lovvee these kinds of music! and songs! discotothestars, unikorn kid, swimming with dolphins....and the great part is, they're not that well known so it won't get annoying xD im happy i found out about these bands. thanks desandnate and thanks to the people who uploads these songs xDD

  • This song is so adorable<3

  • @ValerieFdoub i know right? these kinds of songs make me feel all fuzzy inside xD

  • @BloodyHellXD Me toooo. I can listen to both Swimming With Dolphin's and Owl City's songs

  • For hours. D:

  • @limegumball Adam Young (Owl City) made all the music for this band. Or so I've read hahaha

  • Why are all the comments focused on Adam when this song is by Austin? I love Owl City as much as anyone here, but how do you think austin feels when he sees no comments about him? seriously, lets talk about austins brilliant music on austins video.

  • @CloudTransit austin sang while adam played music, so its both of theirs, but austin is still epic

  • i hate people who get on a bands video and make comments about other bands. who the fuck is owl city?

  • @dampel6 HAHAHAHA u fking retard

  • @Randomstation i'm glad you enjoy sarcasm as much as i.

  • @dampel6 oh was it sarcasm? sorry, its a bit hard to show sarcasm in text :s

  • @dampel6 Adam Young is Owl City.. its a band and Adam is in this band.. But in this band its Adam and Austin and in Owl City its just Adam.. so yeah there you go.. (: i didnt know tht til like now lol so yeah..

  • adam and austin make such a great team!

  • two people forgot their contacts when they tried to click the like button...

  • I love this song!

  • @christian12102 no no no

    adam (owl city) only does the music here. austin tofte is the singer here

  • Ok I totally get how people are tried of other people only liking Owl City for Fireflies, but I mean, can you blame them? I think almost all of us agree that Fireflies is a pretty darn good song. So, yeah, maybe a few people were too lazy to look up Owl City's other songs, but so what? It's their loss. I think that people should just get over the whole Fireflies thing and just be glad that Adam is finally getting some of the fame that he deserves.

  • @purplejellyfish63

    Or leave the electronic music to the people who have a knack for it. Because let's be honest, there are way too many artists out there that are getting too much credit they don't deserve, and there are clearly way too many people who are not getting the credit they deserved way earlier. And it's quite sad that the ratio is quite much in favor of the mainstream artists. May the underdog artists continue to be in the hearts of those who appreciate real music. <3

  • @purplejellyfish63 Lol really Fireflies is my least favorite song from Owl City. Great song, but it was played to much by mainstream radio

  • @22jermz It hurts me inside that you literally just said it's TOO MAINSTREAM. That's supposed to be a meme. Not something somebody actually says. I am disappoint son. Disappoint.

  • @22jermz omg this comment gave me a self realization that I am a hipster and need to make a change that you :D

  • @22jermz Yeah, I agree. I love others much more...

  • @22jermz we have a bad ass over here...

  • @purplejellyfish63 I know every song from Owl City, except all the songs on his newest album, and I love it all. Let alone how amazing his sound is, his lyrics are so beautiful and heart stopping. He's got a gift of writing and that voice of his is something else. <3 His music brings utter bliss and joy into my darkest days.

  • :D :] :) !

  • i know! i've like owl city for a long time, wayyyy before fireflies! and saltwater room is my boyfriend and i's song. and we've been fans way long. those people made me so mad that only like adam for his one songs. listen to his others too!! they get even better (: and i like this side project. it's great!

  • New Song from these guys. Check their myspace. See "Jacques Cousteau."

    Also search "Sunlight Waterfall" and "Fireflies in June" if your looking for some new variety, but with similar style.

    Peace

  • Adam only makes the beats not sing on here

  • swimming with dolphins is much more superior to Owl Shitty in my view, Adam Young is a great singer and makes great stuff but this project is so much better....It's not overrated and played out, not yet anyway.

  • There is always something new to discover about Adam Young you didn't know before. I love that.

  • This is Austins song..why is everyone talking about Adam and Owl City? I realize he used to be in this band, but can SOMEONE give him some credit? I love Austin. He's just as talented a Adam. And wonderful live. Great song. (:

  • @KelliePlusFun Yes he is. But Adam is...

    Uhm. I can't describe it, but he's different. Special. Maybe Perfect.

  • Wait I thought these were all sung by Austin....did Adam sing in any? :O

  • I LOVE ALL OF YOU!!! hearing his music on this one radio station that plays rap hip hop n' shit... i wanted to shoot myself in the face T_T fuckin knew him like 2 years befor "exposure" -.-

  • @gloftw

    Are you dumb?

    Yeah he worked on Owl City and Swimming With Dolphins but Owl City was ALWAYS his main project. He even has another one called Port Blue.

    And he worked on Owl City more than the other two.

    THATS why Owl City got more fans.

  • this song is amazing!

  • this song is sooooo good :)

  • @gloftw

    Ohh thankyou! :)

    <3

  • this sounds a little bit like Owl City.

    I <3 owl city, soo I'll probably like these people too!

  • yahh adam young is also the creater of swimming with dolphins so its the same people haha :]

  • @chinamap ohh okayy, thanks :)

  • it is the guy from owl city, adam young.

  • He's not the singer though, Adam just makes the beats etc.

  • its not owl city its swimming with Dolphins

    DUH!!! so yea i love them!!!LOVE THEM

  • this is better than fireflies

  • This is a band, with multiple people. As in multiple people are in it, and that I think, means more than two. Give me credible proof otherwise pls. Cause you never know what kinda wierdo's are online.

  • This band is just 2 people, which is front man Austin Tofte, and Adam Young (Owl City) with co-production, no more unless you want to count the drummer when they're playing live, but they don't need him while recording:)

  • @GoodBeatGreg yeah drums are originally done using programming (fl studio, reason 4, cubase, ableton, logic) dont know which 1 he uses.

    drummer only plays live.

  • so this is owl city?

    im sonfused.....

  • no but founded both by adam young

  • Even though he's overly exposed, its cool that us (original fans) can still look up swimming with dolphins and know his old songs, so I feel like I'm finding something different. :D

  • this reminds me so much of those summer days where you try to go to sleep early but it's so sunny that you just want to go outside(:

  • i love this song

  • *sigh* I've know Owl city for a long time and now he's popular... it's so overly exposed that everyone just LOVES him! But his old songs are really good and people only know fireflies...

    <3333333333

  • @lollipau1617 omg i know!!

  • @lollipau1617 This isn't owl city..

  • I'm a tad confused here...

  • lol thanks

  • @KelseyTheUnicorn I also agree! you should have heard my rant when kiss was giving out owl city tickets. it was long,let me tell you that.

  • Ok whatever. He's not like in in in the thing

  • Wow there are some funny comments here... Haha and the person below me is right. It's a side project, Adam isn't in SWD.

    Ahhh, Owl City is so awesome... :) And of course SWD is too :)

  • this is the first time hearing swimming with dolphins .. and like all the comments are about adam young, is this him in an old band?

  • yes. adam was in this band

  • okk, this song has just appeared on my phone, i was putting bryan adams on my phone, i looked to check it was on there, and this was on there instead, i mean, ive never heard of this band or song EVER! and i dont know how the hell it got on my phone...seriously this is no joke

  • People on the radio are like "Oh I love Adam Young." They dont even know him. Fuckers.

  • THX U

  • THX U

  • Haha, I like how yuu said that to me twice. Thanksss :P <3

  • dude ur the only person with commen sense lol

  • Mwhehe thanks.xD But uh, I'm not a dude D:

  • o damn my bad

    but its good to know tht ur not a retarded girl who only knows one song by adam unlike all the other girls in my school =D

  • Haha, oh God, tell me about it..."I LOVE ADAM YOUNG! BUT I ONLY KNOW HIS SONG FIREFLIES!" Ugghhhh makes me wanna stabb them xD

  • yeah, aye.

  • @Catmellows i totally agree because everyone thinks theyre fans of owl city just because they heard "fireflies" on the radio, it makes official owl city fans MAD!

  • Haha, tell me about it...

  • IKR!?

    Like theres this one girl in my class and shes all "i LOOOVE Owl City"

    Me: "Whats your favourite song?"

    Her: "Fireflies (: "

    Me: "...you don't deserve to live."

  • @NeverShoutCity sameee! when I see people go in hot topic and buy an owl city shirt... im like "now you wouldnt be buying that if it was last month...."

  • LOL xD

    EXACTLY

  • @NeverShoutCity I agree. I swear. I feel like he just did some suicide mission to himself. I think fireflies is overly exposed and I feel betrayed in a way.

  • Yeah but... at the same time i'm kinda happy for him. Cuz hes getting the recognition he deserves. its just his 'fans' that piss me off :\

  • @NeverShoutCity rofl i had that same exact conversation with this girl the other day

  • @NeverShoutCity i agree so much! i knew owl city before it was popular.

    and it pisses me off how people only know like one song haha i loveeeeeee adam <333

  • @NeverShoutCity I'll get the gun. Brb.

  • @marlintheelitefan LMAO ...

    I love you D:

  • @NeverShoutCity There's nothing wrong with her favorite song being Fireflies. She has a right to have an opinion too, you know.

  • @Simbaholic Yeah , but its also the ONLY song by Owl City that she knows.

  • @NeverShoutCity Then why don't you introduce her to some other songs of his?

  • @NeverShoutCity  You're so right lol. Fireflies is THE WORST song they've made. IF you don't kill her, can I?

  • @rugbyflankerted7 I never said it was the Worst song. It was just the fact that she'd been listening to JUST that song for god knows how long without bothering to check out his other amazing music. I actually happen to like fireflies, but i just like his other music more.

  • @rugbyflankerted7 It's not they've.

    Fireflies is by Owl City. Which is Adam Young.

    Matt Thiessen did the backup vocals.

    Austin had no part in Fireflies.

  • @NeverShoutCity lolol

  • @NeverShoutCity Youu shoulda punched her in the throat .... xD

  • @FlyingTomato3000 Oh believe me, i wanted to. xD

  • @NeverShoutCity nice name. NeverShoutNever is awesome!

  • This is my favorite. ♥

  • i love desandnate :) :) :) the make me laugh so hard!!

  • OH SHUSH YOURSELVES.

    AndEnjoyIt.

    IHaveNeverSeenSoManyPeopleBitc­h.

  • @Kathehable i agree and all, but why are you

    TypingLikeThis ?

  • actually owl city is a whole band and what i mean by that its not just adam... i looked it up.

  • i use to be untill 2008 when he made friends lol

  • no, it's only Adam, but at concerts there are a few people with him who play some of the music.
