Song

"When Can I See You Again?" is a song recorded by Owl City for the 2012 Walt Disney Animation Studios film Wreck-It Ralph. It was written and produced by Adam Young, with additional writing from Matt Thiessen and Brian Lee.

Music and lyrics

"When Can I See You Again?" is an uptempo dance-pop and synthpop song.[2][3] It features Young's "light vocals over a bed of pounding drums and twinkly synths".[2] Young told AOL Music, "As a huge fan of Disney animation films growing up, it was a real honor to write 'When Can I See You Again' for Wreck-It Ralph. I felt like it was really challenging to try to live up to the Disney legacy. I had a blast."[4] Since October 1, 2014, a Cantonese-language arrangement has been used as one of the two theme songs for Hong Kong Disneyland's Paint the Night Parade, alongside "Baroque Hoedown".[citation needed] The parade premiered at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, on May 22, 2015, and features new lyrics and vocals recorded by Young.[5][6]

It's great to be back and feel like I'm 12 years old again in the arcade."[9]
