Music Review "Owl City"

Everyone has heard of Owl City's biggest hit, "fireflies". They have just released an new set of songs. Their greatest hit won the hearts of many music lovers because of its upbeat and positive vibe. Now they have created an new set of great upbeat songs. The first song makes you feel like you are watching the stars shoot above your head in a time lapse. Its techno-inspired beat has the potential to be on the top 10 music listings. Its lyrics remind me of many other popular songs, like B.O.B's airplanes. The next song "Gold" is yet again another cookie cutter form of the rest of their songs. Upbeat, techno-inspired and positive, this song will make anyone want to tap their foot or get up and dance. The next song includes a featured artist Mark Hoppus. All of the songs are quite similar and provide a upbeat and uplifting tempo. These song have not surprised me at all and are what I expected from them. I was glad to see they are still going strong and releasing new songs. I would give these songs a 4/5 because I think that they have yet to wow me as a music listener.
