The electronic band ol City. It's well, it's just one guy.

165
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:46.480
Adam Young, he's forty. He's born in nineteen eighty six

166
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:49.679
and at Tumwa, Iowa. Grew up in Awa Doona, Minnesota.

167
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:52.159
Then in two thousand and seven, he was loading trucks

168
00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.639
at a Coca Cola shipping warehouse. While he was doing

169
00:09:54.679 --> 00:09:56.279
it and he would just compeled music in his head.

170
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:58.360
They didn't go home to his parents' basement. Yep, he's

171
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.440
his keyboard and he uploaded it onto my Space. Ended

172
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:03.320
up getting a record deal in two thousand and nine.

173
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:07.840
So I'm at al Citi's or Adam's biggest hits are Fireflies,

174
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:11.559
Vanilla Tonight, good Time with Oh Yeah, good Time. That

175
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:14.320
was with Carlie Ray Jebson. Now he never dated her,

176
00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:17.200
but Taylor Swift actually wrote her song Enchanted about him.

177
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:19.600
It's not touring this summer, but if he ever does

178
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:21.679
come on tour and you're a neck, he actually brings

179
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:24.200
a whole band. It's not just him up all right.

180
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:26.240
Or quote of the day, and it comes from baseball

181
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:28.519
great Ted Williams. He died to day in two thousand

182
00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:31.080
and two at eighty three years old. Ted says, by

183
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:32.840
the time you know what to do, you're too old

184
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:35.720
to do it. Thank you, Oliver for joining us today.

195
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:13.639
because you look good and I can't say I'm not tempting,

196
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:22.200
that's for sure, like my path being always said, once bitten, twice,

197
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:28.840
shot gave gold. I cannot say no, but I can

tonight because I've been too and back so all good.

199
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:40.200
Levama slipped through the crats she forgave me, and it's

200
00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:42.559
a fact I ain't going through.

201
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:43.799
Hell and back.

204
00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:57.519
You can take your fix, but I'm no to time

205
00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:03.039
and backwards. It be into hell and back.

206
00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:05.000
Saw good.

207
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:09.799

208
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.360
