I've never realized how much audio processing was put into this especially those harmonies. Idk why, but it sounds like he just used a vocoder on the harmonies. that or its autotuned to shit.
There's apparently also Matt Thiessen, who did backing vocals for this song and others. Though it's hard to tell because he and Adam sound so similar... I've only realized it now and I've been a fan since Fireflies first came out.
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 (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) 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)
Stxrcxt he puts the original song and an instrumental version into a mixer and there’s an effect that cancels out things that sound/are alike. but he might be doing it another way.
@@WolvePlex The Audacity vocal remover is terrible and center channel isolation usually leaves tons of background noise. This was probably ripped from a game like Guitar Hero.
