Fireflies is a song and the debut single from synthpop artist Owl City's album Ocean Eyes. Relient K vocalist Matt Thiessen is featured as a guest vocalist in the song. Fireflies is the first synthpop/New Wave song to hit the #1 spot in America since I Touch Myself by The Divinyls in 1991, 18 years earlier. The song is based around an 80s-influenced synthline and features wondrous, child-like lyrics about insomnia, fireflies and summer.
The single attained worldwide success in late 2009 and early 2010, topping the charts in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Ireland, Finland, Sweden, Norway, the United Kingdom, the United States and the Netherlands.
