Listen to the opening 50 seconds of a song called Stewball by Peter,Paul and Mary. Now tell me you can't hear John Lennon's Happy Christmas,War Is Over. The guitar chords and the singing melody are virtually the same.

Milli Vanilli, despite being a huge success, never sang any of the vocals on any of their music. |

@ tazdevil - 14.07.20 - 06:00pm Oh my goodness! I wrote a massive post on here, and my browser crashed. I will get back to it later. Not sure if it's a fact, but I read somewhere not too long ago that one of my most favourite Evanescence songs 'My Last Breath' was inspired by the 9/11 attacks in New York City. It made me cry so much because I wasn't prepared for the emotions to hit me like a wave Ever since I read that, this is what I imagine (my interpretation) 'Hold onto me love, You know I can't stay long, All I wanted to say was I love you, and I'm not afraid' (Pretty much self-explanatory) The next few lines 'look for me in the white forest, hiding in a hollow tree. Come, and find me' means the people trapped under the debris (white forest = city covered in ashes, and hiding in a hollow tree = trapped under the fallen/shattered building) 'I know you hear me, I can taste it in your tears, Holding my last breath, Safe inside myself, Are all my thoughts of you, Sweet raptured light, it ends here tonight' (The first few lines are self-explanatory, and sweet raptured light is obviously referring to the myth of seeing a bright light as you are passing away) 'Say goodnight, Don't be afraid, Calling me, calling me as you fade to black' (Say goodnight, don't be afraid = say goodbye before I sleep forever, and fade to black = suicide/jumping out of the building) 'Holding my last breath, Safe inside myself, Are all my thoughts of you, Sweet raptured light, it ends here tonight' (Self-explanatory) Excellent song, check it out if you've never heard it before! |

Owl City explains reasoning behind confusing Fireflies lyric Adam Young has done the math on the line Cause Id get a thousand hugs/ From 10,000 lightning bugs/ As they tried to teach me how to dance By Sam Moore 21st June 2017 Owl City has revealed the mathematical reasoning behind one of the confusing lyrics from his 2009 hit Fireflies. Owl City aka Adam Young shot to prominence nearly eight years ago with the single, which went six times platinum worldwide and spent three weeks at the top of the UK singles chart. Young has only now spoken out on one especially unclear lyric from Fireflies, where he sings: Cause Id get a thousand hugs / From 10,000 lightning bugs / As they tried to teach me how to dance. Listen to the song below, with the lyric in question popping up at the 1:08 mark. Advertisement Having bamboozled fans for years, Young has now clarified his take on the maths that the lyrics invoke after being asked on Twitter to explain whether each firefly hugs you 1,000 times, or do only 1/10th of the bugs give you a hug? I was the recipient of 1,000 hugs from 10,000 lightning bugs for a grand total of 10,000,000 hugs, Young explained in reply. As the lyrics of the song clearly state, the average layperson would not believe their eyes if 10,000,000 fireflies were to illuminate planet Earth, nor would the average person conclude by natural instinct that 10,000 lightning bugs, acting as a collective group, are capable of embracing a human being 1,000 times without difficulty. By the same token, a gathering of lightning bugs in such vast numbers form a sort of swarm, and a swam can collectively surround a human and deliver a hug that a single firefly, acting according to the dictates of his own conscience, simply cannot. Consequently, I was embraced 1,000 times by 10,000 luminescent insects. Owl City last released an album in 2015 with Mobile Orchestra. |

The theme of the song Fireflies is the yearning to go back to their childhood. The Fireflies in the song when someone is catching them is a child because a child would catch Fireflies.

Vanilla Twilight by Owl City Songfacts: This is the follow-up single to synthpop act Owl City's chart-topper Fireflies. This touching ode to love lost is about Adam Young's (a.k.a. Owl City) high school girlfriend who moved away. In an interview with Buzzgrinder on August 20, 2009, Young explained: I met the most charming girl imaginable when I was in high school and most of my 'cozy' songs are about her. She moved away to college for a few years and we kind of lost touch. She and I recently started talking to each other again and life has a way of reshaping sometimes. I'm absolutely crazy about her. Young told The Sun February 12, 2010: That song is probably the oldest on the album. I wrote it when I first started in 2007 and I kept on tweaking it. When I need a ballad for the album, I switched some words around and it fitted perfectly. |
