The Minnesota-based musician has made no secret of his admiration for Dubai's famous icon, featuring a photo of the property on the cover of his platinum-selling Ocean Eyes album.

Adam said: "I'd been looking high and low for an album cover image that truly encompassed the heart and soul of the music itself, and when I saw that photo, I knew I'd found the perfect one. To me, it just looked like the two words - Ocean Eyes."

Iain Cooper from Lighthouse, the creative agency behind the promotional film said, “Adam’s dreamy style and his feelings for the hotel made him the ideal candidate to create the score for the film". 

Jumeirah Group is known for its broader commitment to the arts and is dedicated to expanding its cultural platform by inspiring artists of all disciplines and were delighted to collaborate with Adam on this spontaneous project.

Ocean Eyes

The lush, lovingly created Ocean Eyes, which was released by Universal Republic Records in July 2009 is filled with whimsical melodies and blissful beats that Young conjured up alone in the basement of his parent’s home in Owatonna. Ocean Eyes topped the Billboard Rock, Alternative, and Dance/Electronic charts and was certified gold or platinum in nine countries. The album spawned the quadruple – platinum first single “Fireflies” which was a No. 1 smash hit in 24 countries including the U.S. (where it the top spot twice) and sold more than four million downloads. Its eye-popping success has made Owl City an international phenomenon selling nearly 12 million tracks worldwide and massing an impressive touring record.
