Jun 17, 2011Another uplifting piece of music from a very musically gifted young man. Makes me smile every time I listen to him. I like how he's branching out from within his sound for a song like Alligator Sky.

Jun 15, 2011This is an amazing album. The album has a ton of depth and each song is beautiful in its own way. Highlights include: "The Real World", "Angles", "Dreams Don't Turn To Dust", "Kamikaze", "Galaxies", and "The Yacht Club"! Way to go Adam! :D

Jun 15, 2011Young takes a brave departure from his serenading Ocean Eyes release with All things bright and beautiful, he is trying new sounds throughout the entirety of the album, especially evident and Kamikaze, Angels, and Alligator Sky. This is a must-hear for anyone who is a fan of Adam Young's previous work or anyone who likes up-beat pop sounds.

Jun 15, 2011Every song is really really good! Even better than owl citys last album! The best songs are the real world and Deer in the headlights, but all the songs are good too.

Jun 18, 2011It's very unique, it takes you on a literal adventure. Some people just have no imagination. Don't close your mind off to only one type of music genera, because this is a spectacular album that if you have an imagination is very fun. The music is very catchy, and Owl City always has something unique, it's not a disappointment, far from.

Jun 16, 2011I think this album is evolution the ocean eyes because have more rhythm and more good vibrations. I have very delighted with the Alligator sky, Deer In The Headlights, Angels, The Yacht club and finally honey and bee. I think this album is a good gift for everybody particularly for offer the girlfriend and for make serenade for her with one music (honey and bee).

Jul 1, 2012Owl City, has his own voice and music, "grown-up" and made the songs, "The Real World, Deer in the Headlights, and Plant Life" more memorable. I also love the dance-beat of some songs like "The Yacht Club and Galaxies"

Apr 27, 2015It's gorgeous, catchy and feels like it was really written from the heart. Each individual song doesn't just feel like a cookie cutter electronic pop song, but instead possesses a personal loving touch, which effectively delivers the messages straight to the heart.

Jun 9, 2018This was my first Owl City album, and pretty easily my favorite of his so far. The best word to describe this album is magical. The lyrics and music have a sense of magic and wonder not seen on any of Adam's other records. The songs on this album take me to another, more happy world. This is an wholly unique, magical album.

Jul 10, 2011A very beautiful, upbeat album. But it lacks what an album should be, it really just seems like a compact disc with a couple fun tracks on it. As much as I love Owl City, I have to say, this was a bit disappointing, but it's still going on my iPod!

Jun 21, 2011Great Album... with errors, but is intersting. Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Coffee

Jun 30, 2011The dozen tracks of effervescent, shimmering, faith-based synth pop blend Young's adenoidal, Warped tour-ready vocals with a decidedly '80s new wave flavor.

Q MagazineJun 20, 2011Despite it's title and Young's Ben Folds-esque vocals, All Things Bright and Beautiful keeps its beliefs at a distance for the most part. [July 2011, p. 117]
