Fireflies by Owl City – Asian American edition

Two Asian American singers made it to Ryan Seacrest’s “Eight Noteworthy Covers of Owl City’s ‘Fireflies’“. Del from Legaci for Vocals and Marie Digby for vocals & guitar made the cut. (We’re surprised David Choi’s version didn’t make the lists. He’s got the momst entertaining version.)

Well, we looked a few other talented Asian American singers and posted their renditions below. Each person showcases their individual talents.

Living In A Tree by Priscilla Ahn

Check out this live performance of Living In A Tree by Priscilla Ahn in collaboration with The Mighty Fifty and KoreAm Journal. The song didn’t make the cut for her album, but got exposure in a 2009 Jeep Wrangler commercial. Also peep her collabo with Tiesto in “I am Strong”.

BTW – the Mighty Fifty always shots great videos. See some of their other work with Asian American artists: THE F.R.E.S.H. featuring Far East Movement and Big Phony’s Fix Or Providence, I Love Lucy, and But I Will, Everyday.
