A lot of they lyrics/ideas he blatantly ripped off from Gibbard:



"I built you a home in my heart" -Gibbard

"If my heart was a house you'd be home" -Owl City guy



just one example



That's not to say that this isn't a good record though, it is good in it's own right.



Curse.

This is the album for people who found Death Cab too edgy.

haha



I mean lol yea they are similar in that they use electronics, their vocally similar, and they even both write introspective lyrics. But the feel is completely different-which tends to be more important than anything else. This is way too upbeat, happy, and even cinematic to call this a rip-off from the postal service. besides the guy says he never heard of them (sarcastically).



Idk if hes deserves the fame-but he certainly deserves it more than his current mainstream contemporaries.

Fireflies is apparently the "best song on the album." Think about what they would do for the worst. Can i get a -10?

Fireflies might just be the most vomit-inducing slab of pop tripe ever created. I didn't know lyrics could get so cringeworthy. Emo kids finding autotune, that's AWESOME. Seriously, this band needs to go fuck themselves.
