Owl City and Aloe Blacc Write a New Graduation Anthem with 'Verge' (Recap)


.
On Monday Owl City and Aloe Blacc Write a New Graduation Anthem with 'Verge' was a top story. Here is the recap: (Radio.com) We're in the thick of college and high school graduation season and up until now there haven't been any frontrunners for new anthems -- but Owl City and Aloe Blacc are changing that with their new collaboration, "Verge."

The song, which comes from Owl City's upcoming album Mobile Orchestra, is a twang-dance ballad with a bluegrass bop and an EDM drop about living it up on a special night.

"I ain't too sure what I believe in / But I believe in what I see," sings Adam Young, aka Owl City. "And when I close my eyes / I see my whole life ahead of me / These are our hours / This is our time."

Obviously those aspirational lyrics are general enough to apply to any situation, but the animated lyric video for the track positions it as a graduation anthem with images of anonymous cap and gown-clad people. Listen to the track - here.
