"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 [edit]

"When Can I See You Again?" is an uptempo dance-pop and synth-pop single.[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 ] An expanded version of the parade premiered at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, on May 22, 2015, and features new lyrics and vocals recorded by Young.[5] [6]

Music video [edit]

The music video for the song includes Young singing in front of an arcade game.

The music video for "When Can I See You Again?" was released on October 26, 2012, and directed by Matt Stawski.[7] It features "fun video game themes" and clips from Wreck-It Ralph.[8] Young told AOL Music, "The funniest thing has been actually standing in front of the arcade game with controls, putting the quarter in. It's great to be back and feel like I'm 12 years old again in the arcade."[9]
