For the last 8 years, everyone has been wondering what is actually good with Owl City and their song Fireflies. The song, which was super popular on the radio and catchy when we were young, confused the majority of people because – who gets hugged by fireflies? Honestly?
Of course, with the emergence of Twitter, people have been trolling the band asking – dude WTF?
@owlcity In the song "Fireflies" you state "I get a thousand hugs from 10,000 lightning bugs." How do you interpret this statement?

@owlcity Does each firefly hug you 1,000 times or do only 1/10th of the bugs give you a hug?

After thousands of people liked the tweets and retweeted them – Owl City decided to finally answer everyone’s confusion and explain the lyrics.
And, the explanation may surprise you.

Here, let me break it down for you.
So basically, he did hug a bunch of fireflies. Or, maybe he was taking a serious acid trip. I’m not entirely sure.
