Owl City - Fireflies | Epic Fingerstyle Guitar Cover 

Edit: Tabs are now available! --> www.musicnotes.com/l/75BWQ The "I WANT TABS" comment. Reply to this comment with whatever you want. I will heart your comments when the tabs are available and then everyone will get notified! 💯

So much nostalgia... you captured the song perfectly

Oh my god this sounds so beautiful I literally almost started crying holy shit

WOW that's beautiful, not too overly done. Perfect.

The best acoustic cover i’ve ever heard! Amazing 👍🏻❤️ you reflect perfectly the sense of the song

Perfect. Though I wish you had done two choruses before the bridge. I was expecting that as I sang along but then got a left turn into the bridge. Still mad impressed even as a guitarist myself. I usually just do chords. I never learned how to fingerpick like that.

You inspire me all the time to practice more ❤️❤️❤️

so goood

I must learn this... Please teach me sensei

Tabs please this is incredible!

Which version of C tuning are you using? CGCGCE?

2022 still here

tabs pleaseee

Nice arrangement! Love the plants too😄

YES THE TABS PLEASE! Wow this is so incredible, you’re so talented!

Epic AF my man! I dare anyone to make something as delicous as this!

No ones done it so here ya go ------- You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep 'Cause they fill the open air And leave teardrops everywhere You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs From ten thousand lightning bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sock hop beneath my bed A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread) I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep) Leave my door open just a crack Please take me away from here 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac Please take me away from here Why do I tire of counting sheep? Please take me away from here When I'm far too tired to fall asleep To ten million fireflies I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes I got misty eyes as they said farewell (they said farewell) But I'll know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar (jar, jar, jar) I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep) I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep)

Are you subscribed?? Over 75% of my viewers are NOT subscribed to my channel. It would mean a lot if you could hit that sub button! 😉 Let me know in the comments if you’re subscribed and I’ll make sure to heart your comment!! 😊 I hope you enjoy my version of ‘’Fireflies’’

It sounds beautiful, and I hope that there will have a tab which can let learn and practice.

The five dislikes are from the ppl who's eyes were too blurry from crying to see the right button to click

I would really like tabs!

RU-vid is the closest thing we have to a time machine

Nice to hear that fireflies is still around! I love Owl City so much.

This throws me back to my morning walks to school 11 years ago

Easily the best Firefly cover I have heard. Simple arrangement but really pleasing to my ears. Good job. It would be nice if you could make the tab so I can try it myself.

This is really giving me a transcendent feeling, can't wait for the tabs!

Every guitarist looks for perfection... Happy days mate

Absolutely incredible arrangement! Usually you can tell from your songs how difficult a tab would be, but I am truly stumped on this one. You play it with so much ease that I'm not sure its of epic difficulty or moderate difficulty and learn-able with practice. I can't say but hell I want to try these tabs out so bad! Hope you can whip em up soon enough. Love this!

This song is always going to be special to me. I'd very much like to buy this tab

It's a beautiful arrangement, tabs pls?

I dig it

I love this arrangement! I hope you make a tab so I can learn how to play this!

I am your subscriber since 3 years when I came across your video "7 love songs to play on guitar" Since then I have loved your every video❤️❤️ we will keep supporting you 😊 you are awesome 😀

Damnit, yeah I want this tabbed too. I have like 11 songs to learn on reserve, why not make it 12?

Amazing job my friend ♥ We want TABS!!

Tabs would be really really great! Please 👊🏻🎶 and greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴😁

Amazing performance! Would love to see the tabs and give it a shot myself!

I always struggle with finding the base line for my melody..i practice everyday but just can't figure out how to add a base line for what i'm playing😭😭

The people with perfect pitch and have watched people play guitar for years not having to pay for the tabs rn: WELL I WIN

I practiced guitar for a 2 years every day for 5⌛hours+. Observe my progress🚀

Which mic do you use? It sounds amazing!

Sir this all we could've ask for, ive been searching for tabs of this song (since im not skilled enough to make my own arrangement)

@Guss, very nice playing and good sounding recording. What guitar is that?

I’m subscribed. This is beautiful. I don’t know the song, but would love to learn it. Could you please post the tunings with your videos? I think this might be CGCGCE but that’s a guess based on a few times listening.

Dude u read my mind. I was thinking of requesting u to make this cover.much love

Nice arrangement, would be great to have the tabs!

Amazing this was my kids favorite song would love to see this broken down for us mere mortals....

Amazing. I want to go back to the time this song was popular. Everything was so much brighter

Amazing Guus! Have wanted you to make an arrangement of this song for ages. You have such a unique voice on the guitar that is so beautiful and relaxing. Simply outstanding! :)

You make the guitar sing so beautifully 🙏

An amazing arrangement AND tabs? 😂🙏🏽

Damn that's incredible. I'm on day one of learning to play I cant even fathom this. Amazing

That hammer on/off with harmonic notes at 0:20 is just absolute ASMR theres no comparison. I need to learn this like yesterday

Great cover! Makes me wanna pick up my guitar and.... well listen to yours again 🤣

This version feels like an aerial shot following a pickup truck through a forest road at the beginning of a buddy adventure movie

Very clean cover! Made my day a bit brighter just to hear it!

My all time favourite song and to hear it played this beautifully brought back sooo many memories! Thank you for playing this! :D

This is my all time favourite video on all of RU-vid! This is a beautiful arrangement and I just hope one day I will learn to play this as beautiful as you!

This song means so much to me it reminds me of someone i love more then life its self and brings me back to those times. Your amazing the style of this is beautiful thank u so much

Old school vibes are coming back ♥

Holy cow! Then I see you’ve only been playing 6 year?!?!

I wish I could just play like this. I want to sit around a campfire and play my friend to joy (if that makes any sense)

Classic, well done! Love the new video angles too:)

We NEED the tabs for this beautiful arrangement 🙏🏻

this song is so nostlagic for me 😔

Subscribed ages ago, you even replied to a comment of mine before, keep it up mate really like your stuff you're class

Hey. I’m a recent admirer of your work! I was wondering how you record with such sound clarity. I know the guitar is the most important part of the equation (this particular model is known for its richness and warmth), but I was wondering if you could say just a sentence or two about your recording process?

Love this song 😍 just brilliant Guus!

I would really appreciate if you'll provide us the tabs. By the way, awesome fingerpicking.🤟🤟

Awwww, this made so emotional 🥺. Memories!💛. Great job bruh ❤️

Woooooooooooooo😱😱😱😱😱😱

Best arrangement I’ve ever heard for any song, I would suggest a tutorial but something tells me that would be extremely long and complex

0 dislikes that's how beautiful this is

damn dude I didnt like your style a few years ago, but it matured so well! really love it!

good job bro, keep it up!!!

Saludos hermano! ... Compartí tu música con muchos amigos, y hasta en el bar donde trabajo (Rosario, Argentina.) reproduciéndolo en los televisores, y mucha gente me preguntó quién eras!.. :D :D ..Siempre es bueno volver a tu canal y escucharte tocar colega, llegás profundo.. Debo decirte también que, humildemente, he robado tu técnica jajaja. Guiándome por lo que puedo ver y escuchar.. tu versión de este tema es genial.. Fuiste una de las razones claves por las cuales hoy en día estoy introduciéndome al fingerstyle. ✊✊

This is a beautiful version !! Yes, please provide tabs !!

Beautiful arrangement. Also requesting tabs :)

Love this, just subscribed! Tabs would be amazing. Can't wait to watch all your other videos!!!

Awesome Cover, it sounds beautiful :)

I got Guus-bumps
