Pretty sure that line is a reference to this. One of my fave songs :)

Owl City - Fireflies

Thanks, me and all the old people thought it was The Doors. https://youtu.be/7G2-FPlvY58

It is definitely a reference and I don’t know why you got downvoted for that lol.

Someone might have thought it was so obvious that it didn't need stating and would just ruin the joke. Alternatively, someone who was somehow unaware of the song and assumed that would be the case for nearly everyone else might have overconfidently decided it was a stretch without looking at the first line of the song.

I don’t think that a single downvote is worth paying attention to.

Someone just jelly of my amazing taste in nearly-20-year-old music, probably 😊

I don't know why this song makes me cry every time I hear it. Something about it gets me right in the soul. Also I didn't know the artist or song name so thanks for the link, that is a beautiful video; I haven't seen it before and after a bit of an emotionally taxing day I got a happy cry and I feel a lot lighter inside

💚 Thank you for brightening this stranger's day
