Oh yes, absolutely. We've already discussed the similarities between TPS and Owl City here. But, yeah, it's like a more mainstream pop version of TPS. Even down to the vocals. It's like he's trying his best to imitate Ben Gibbard or whatever TPS guy's name is.
The hilarious thing is that in the interviews I've read Mr. Owl City totally dismisses any similarity at all. Hahaha. Yeaaaaah . . . surrrrre. If TPS never did what they did, Owl City wouldn't exist as such.
While I think it's totally okay to rip off a band/musician's style (especially if said band will never release new music again) it's a bit absurd to vehemently deny it.
