I hear that you can get Sued for using anything from Dubai without permission? Is that true, in fact you can’ t even have Dubai or DXB in a company website in Dubai now as it copyright-ed. I live in Dubai aand my dj friend wanted a Dubai scene on his cover but was denied. Well Done!

I love the song Fireflies, and I love living in Dubai. I was suprised to see the Burj Al Arab on the cover, I guess he is in with the Sheikhs The Burj Dubai is opening tonight and Im really looking forward to it. Maybe we’ll see that on a music cover sometime soon?

Happy New Year and all the best to you, and Owl City in 2010.

Im FROM Dubai, so ive been here 19 yrs. There are no basic rooms in the hotel.. sure dubai is currently under construction, but most of the construction cranes in the sea next to burj al arab r gone now that the islands are done.. the labors take the job willingly knowing all conditions, we need labors, they need jobs, it works.. wat city doesn’t have congested highway, Dubai is LA on steroids :p now most of the construction and projects are on hold due to the financial crises, but they managed to open the metro and dubai mall.. best time to visit dubai is in winter around December-March, its too hot in summer, like 40 degrees hot.. i stayed for a night in burj al arab, amazing view, a lot of beach entertainment, in-room snooker table and Jacuzzi, etc.. Owl city rox!!!

I lived in Dubayy for five years and have to say that hotel is so tacky… The inside is all gold, purple, and green paint. There are water jets that form archways over the escalators, old German & British tourists paying their $50 each to just gain access for a tour, and close to a $1,000 for their most basic room. His music is fantastic as we love electro in the ME, but I wouldn’t be putting up a picture of somewhere he’s never been. Cause if you look in the opposite directions you’d realize all that flash is dominated by a sea construction cranes, Indian labors and congested highways.
