  • What exactly is Owl City?

     

    Got this excert from an interview with Adam Young of "Owl City", and i love it:

    Question: What exactly is Owl City?
    Adam Young's answer: A city where happy owls live, work, breathe, ride bikes and fly kites. They pick flowers, sing in the shower, salsa dance, swim in pools, knit sweaters and read dreamy books with happy endings. They roller skate, watch romantic movies, drive clean cars to church, hold hands on the beach and run on treadmills after they eat a lot of pizza. They enjoy vanilla skies, swinging on swing sets, walking in the rain, pajama parties, wearing fuzzy sweatshirts in the winter and imagining what it would be like to breathe underwater. Owl City is an innocent place where life is pleasant and enjoyable. It's a place where pretty owl girl flight attendants smile at handsome boy owls at 30,000 feet. It's a place where little owls sometimes get lost in grocery stores but they always find their momma's again. =]

    Here is one of my favorite Owl City songs "Saltwater Room" from his album "Maybe I'm Dreaming" (he also has it on his "oceans Eyes" album, but its slightly difrent:

  • be in that place


    Remix 2: Hungry - Joy Williams

    I've realized that I really want to be in the place where I am fully aware of how sinful and how wrong I am, and be completely broken up about it.
    This has been me of late: getting into this habit of temporary sorrow for my sins and then when that's done im over it and on to something else.

    But things have been coming into focus recently, for the better.

    I can remember a while ago I was praying a pray about how I really want to be completely broken about my sin, because the routine was making me feel fake in my relationship with God. I feel God has started to answer my prayers about being brought into that place. I am starting see how wrong I am recently.

    In Sunday service or Youth Group it occurred to me that being in the broken "God-I-really-can't-do-this,-please-help-me-because-I-know-you-can" state of mine is really beautiful.

    Complete dependence on God when I have finally fallen down and stopped pretending I got this.
