Oh of course..okay..but then.. you know.. that site...where the members who had more than 300 posts could get them..is that site...you know...kinda banned?We did not advertise those songs...we just downloaded them...to our PC-s..
Anyway I totally agree...Just wanted to ask about it.

It may be too late for the demos, since they are everywhere now, and even casual fans have heard them...
But I just wanted to clarify that my thread yesterday was asking about when various songs may get released, not asking anyone to share leaks or whatnot. :)

HA. I knew he wouldn't appreciate it. dont worry Sivan, I've been asking people to stop doing this before this was even posted, some of the songs sound private anyway, so come on gang let's respect.
I'm backing this 100%.
Maybe you should post it as a "sticky" so it doesnt get lost.
when was this said btw? out of curiosity?

I was thinking the same thing about the demos -- it's too late now. :emot-sad:
I too would like to know what various songs may get released and I am not asking anyone to share leaks either. :-) Titles only, really. :-)
I don't want to irritate Mika, either. 0_0 The horror!

I have always thought the demo and new songs sharing thing wasnt such a great idea.:thumbdown: Sivan, you can start by deleting all the related threads on here and then may be sending an appeal to the other MIKA forum to follow suit.

Yeah,it kinda rouins the surprise.I`m totally for it!
Ok guys,deaf to demos from now on :biggrin2:
Just think about how cool it will be to hear 12 new ones in one strike! :wub2:
Interesting...!!!
Call me a cynic, but its a well known fact that tapes do get "leaked" in this industry purely for recognition etc... I don't regret hearing them (when they're freely available and accessible....well!!!) This won't stop me from buying the final version, in fact it makes me WANT to hear whats been changed or not- its the artistry that I'm interested in not freebies- I mean they are practice/outtakes after all...
violet_sky
04-06-2007, 02:02 PM
I just wished Mika wouldn't discard all of those 'leaked' demos for the next album for I am simply dying to have some of them in a perfected version (what does not mean I don't like them as they are...)

I think "leaking" demos can be way for an artists to test out the material on the listeners. I'm NOT suggesting Mika has done this for one moment, and I'm totally against making illegal mp3s and such. But it's such a grey area in the music industry.
For example, it 'okay' to download a video of, say, a performance of Holy Johnny, because that song is now being performed, though still unreleased??
At the end of the day if Mika has spoken out about this we should all respect his wishes. We can't un-listen what we've heard though unfortunately.
at least the dude that did it, isn't a member of this site :biggrin2:

as much as I think we should, I don't think they'd listen.
I've even tried to put a stop to it myself on the forum but alas, more posts kept coming up. You block a hole but the ants create another one and you end up getting a bigger problem than before.

Question
So that includes Holy Johnny too??
But not the covers he does???
Just wanted to be clear cause I was a little confused
I am confused: on Youtube the username for several Mika demo's is Mikapenniman and Mikasounds and Counny1980. Are these demo's all from the same person.
I even get the feeling that the 'Leaking" is deliberate so the demo's can be tested. What if we (the fans) ignore that. Than Mika does not even know what his fans might be thinking of new/old material.
And I admit that several demo versions of material that is released sound just too good to be true. Even better than the official versions.
And now that I am writing about it anyway:
The demo version of Grace Kelly sounds very much like queen. So if people compare Mika to Queen maybe it is his demo version that asked for this reaction.
I also hear a lot of David Bowie and even Beatles influences on the demo's.
Isn't it somehow nice to know what the demo's used to be like and know how much they change before they get released? Proper Mika style!
So all I can say is: If it is available on You tube I will listen to it. And very much enjoy it.

I remember him saying to a fan that he'd prefer the clip of holy johnny filmed during the gig not to be shared..

I think I'll remove it - to be honest it has played on my conscience a bit anyway.

MikaSounds added me as a Youtube buddy. It's not an official membership, they're a fanclub.
You know, some people make demos for their own amusement or to send out to companies in order to get a record deal. Demos are created to give a song its birth, to let it evolve. I'm sure you know that. I doubt they were "released" so fans could hear them. I believe it was leaked without Mika knowing and if he says that he would prefer it they weren't shared, we should respect that decision. I know that banned things makes people want to hear them more, simply because it's banned, but these are Mika's private songs (come on guys, some of them are really personal) and as fans, we should obey his wishes.
I don't want to upset him. Do you?

Finally a statement from Mika if we can believe that... :blink:
I think it came too late though: links to these songs even appeared on MIKASOUNDS, which is his official site, isn't it? As soon as I saw them I asked Moderator to remove the links but I guess he/she misunderstood that and just placed the thread into another section.... That's so stupid...
Do you know who is running MIKASOUNDS, by the way? Is it his record label? It looks like so, because no one seems to care over there...:sneaky2:

A couple weeks ago, I would have had no problem rallying against people who posted Mika's outtakes and demos...
...and then I heard them.
Mika, darling, those songs are PURE GOLD! I like a few of them better than some of the songs on LICM (don't hate me y'all, it's just my opinon). Please give them a proper release so that I don't have to feel guilty about falling in love with these incredible songs. Don't be like Prince and hoard your best stuff to yourself. :wink2:
Ok, I'm done now.

I think that this post should be made sticky in the members only part where you can download interviews and what-not, only because I wish I had seen this when I joined! I felt so horrible after I asked and found out that those were his demos that he didn't want to be let out!
I think that maybe if this was posted and made sticky in that section I think there would be less posts from people asking for his demos! :cool:

I wouldn't smack them, but I'd imagine it, because I'm not a sadist... really:biggrin2: whats a bump? please tell me? Even if Mika came to me, I probably would only get to see him on stage and not backstage, cause when I saw Elton John, as soon as his last song was done, he walked out the door and into his limo. Then, I saw Gwen Stefani, and I waited for a couple hours after outside to see her, get a pic or sumthin, and she never came! I must have bad concert karma!:thumbdown:

Mika says it... We DO IT!
hi everyone...i know sunny asked everyone not to post mika demos on here...
but ill say again...
there are many posts latley asking about MIKA unreleased songs and his demo songs...
PLEASE dont post about them... or ways to get them.
mika asked not to...this is exactly what he said:
"I would apreciate it if my demos were not posted up onto the forum. I do not know who leaked them, but as you can imagine its quite irritating"
so can u guys please help with that? and make sure ppl wont post about it?
and if ppl do than let the admins know?
thank u! i know no one here want to do something against mika wishes ;)
GOT IT. :thumb_yello: I DON'T WANT TO IRRITATE MIKA. :wub2:
