In this episode of Riffs on Riffs, Joe and Toby dive into Owl City’s hit 2009 single “Fireflies.” While the somewhat over-the-top, synth-heavy pop song might not totally resonate with them, they certainly respect the hustle of Adam Young, the mastermind behind Owl City. The guys get deep into the lyrics, which paint a sugary picture of a night of insomnia. They also explore how “Fireflies” not only topped the charts in the US but also captivated audiences worldwide. Tune in to hear Joe and Toby’s insightful take on this phenomenon of a song—it’s certainly a podcast experience that will leave you feeling like you’ve just gotten a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs.
