This is the Future, Owl City, Aragon Ballroom 2010

A great new introduction to "This Is The Future" comes across in this video... something I didn't pick up on when I saw it live, possibly because of the audience noise... In any event, it is a great song and a real treat to see it performed live!!
Lyrics:
Wake up on your own
And look around you cuz youre not alone
Release your high hopes and theyll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive
Dive in and swim away
From your loneliness and miserable days
And when you wake up on your own
Look around you cuz youre not alone
Let your hopes go and theyll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive
Youre headed home

Soo goood.... i Hope he plays this one and other OLD ones on the 9th.... AAH! Can't wait. "Dr. Young" enjoy your nintendo!

[McDaidUSA]

@Shepsterof92 Are you going to see him in London? how sweet ! He really gets around!!

[Shepsterof92]

@McDaidUSA Oh i wish! i Meant.... Watching from my computer and CAN'T wait to dance and jump around in my room. :)

P.S. But the NEW ones like "If My Heart Was a House", "Butterfly Wings", "Sunburn", and "Rugs from Me to You" are SO good and it would be utterly incredible if you (Adam!) did one of those... Heh.. :)

[McDaidUSA]

@Shepsterof92 I think "If My Heart Was a House" is my new all time favorite now :) I wish he did that one in Chicago!!

[owlcityobsession11]

The song he's playing at the begging is called "An Enchanted Evening" from his project Port Blue! Sooo pretty!

I love how in intros he combines his other project, Port Blue into it. :) So lovely.

[13WaterDark]

i really wish he would come to maryland... i desperately want to see him live but he never comes anywhere near here... one day... :( :( :)

[Shepsterof92]

@McDaidUSA Totally... That was my favorite for a good while, then i just decided.... i CAN'T decide. i Think the words in that one and in "The Bird and the Worm" are probably the most precious. Hah... BUT, the awesome breakdowns in "Tip of the Iceberg", "Strawberry Avalanche", "Sunburn", and "Butterfly Wings" are to....dance(?) for!!! :)
