[Emily B]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got to see the messages pop onto the screen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But he still hasn't bloged on mikasound : (
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!new music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sariflor]

I was very excited to see the post, and to read that he's nearly done. What I don't understand is this constant request for him to also blog it= What's the point in that? Duplication?

The beauty of Twitter is that he can make quick, spontaneous, short posts like these from the convenience of his phone, without having to sit at the computer and think out a paragraph to write, including WHAT to write about, then worry about how it looks, etc...

This is fun and easy, and I am embracing it. I think that we should go with the flow and just enjoy what he's doing now :punk:

I totally agree with you :punk: Twitter is enough for me :thumb_yello: but I think that some just want to be sure that it's really him who wrote it and don't drust Twitter as much as his blog.. but yes the whole point of his Twitter wouldn't make sense if he had to write everything again on his blog :naughty:

i agree also. the thing is, it only lets you write a few words, so i'm thinking he'll be more spontaneous with it... i'm hoping anyways:wink2:

Ok but i was thinking about non MFC or nonTwitter fans...how would they know?
Coz i believe there are some...:wink2:

I agree, but what about the fans who aren't on here or twitter?
Strangely there are some out there!

My point exactly:thumb_yello:
It's not moaning, it's spreading the word...:mf_rosetinted:

[nico_collard]

I agree, but what about the fans who aren't on here or twitter?

I'm not on Twitter... I'm boycotting it cause I have enough social networking pages... don't need more...



Though knowing me, I'll cave and get one :naughty:

[violet_sky]

Mika says he finishes recording his album in one week. :das:
He knows, when people get bored you gotta spice it up a bit :naughty:

[racinghorse83]

I'm confused.. how do we have any evidence this IS mika and not some joke?

[Sivan]

mika might regret saying that.... now if he wont finish in a week there will be some pressure on him :naughty:

[Sivan]

I agree, but what about the fans who aren't on here or twitter?
Strangely there are some out there!

Hey Rose ;)
i guess this is the secret of all these websites..... someone like mika brings them tons more new users... i didnt want to join it but :blink: how could i not stalk mika that way?! :naughty:

Hope this is true!!http://www.diva.si/forum/images/smiles/icon_exclaim.gif

[CazGirl]

I'm confused.. how do we have any evidence this IS mika and not some joke?

www.twitter.com/mikasounds and have a look yourself lol. He's got PerezHilton as a friend plus lady gaga and that owen guy (the one who does the violin, right?) and it's a brand new picture that we've never seen before up until this twitter account came round...

Yeah, I'm convinced lol.

And I'm TOTALLY excited that the album is nearly finished...I wonder when it will be released?

[sienna]

Mika says he finishes recording his album in one week. :das:
He knows, when people get bored you gotta spice it up a bit :naughty:

Yeah, finally!
Our constant whining since a couple of week.....gave result!:shocked:
I can't believe it!:naughty:


I'm not on Twitter... I'm boycotting it cause I have enough social networking pages... don't need more...



Though knowing me, I'll cave and get one :naughty:


You and me:roftl:...I'll take a deep breath and do it tonight....I think!:blink:

So September 28th as a release date sounds realistic ...

What's gonna happen in April, May, June, July and August???::roftl:

Are they going to handprint each example?:naughty:

:pbjt:




But seriously, how long does it usually takes?:wink2:
Oh and do you think he will, if there's giong to be any concerts this summer, sing new songs from the album?

I so wish there was a way to ask him!:cool:

A cute little mission to you people living in London or in LA: Talk to him as journalists, ask the questions we all want to know the answer to...:wub2:
You can do it in disguise!

I wondered this too sienna, how long after an artist has finished recording does it take to release an album or even single ?
I googled it earlier but didnt find anything ! :naughty:




Cummon christine - i know you will be able to answer this one :naughty: , your the girl with all the answers :wink2::thumb_yello:

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

I cant wait for the new album , for the website for it all ..

Then I shall sit back and wait for the MFC trolls .. ohh yes Ill wait ohh yes

I like Guinness, even though I don't normally drink. :blush-anim-cl:

[mikas_gal07]

For those of us who don't like Twitter and refuse to look at it?

We'd like to know too and shouldn't be left in the dark just because we don't jump on the newest coolest thing every time the internet presents us with a new fad.

I suppose we'll just have to settle for hearing about second, third, or millionth hand on the MFC.

I'll get excited when I get a release date and a pre-order link on Amazon.

I agree not everyone wants to join so many sites ! ....... mika's addiction isnt everyones addiction ... and would have taken 2 minutes to explain he was sunburnt and going to an avacado farm on his blog ... In a way , if he wants to satisfy all his fans , he should stick to the official blog and the other sites he updates on ... as not everyone wants to join other networks !

[guylainem123]

i believe christine mentioned that there was a possibility to link the twitter account to his blog page... his twitter messages would show up on mikasounds.

maybe he would satisfy everyone if he did that!:thumb_yello:

[robertina]

i won't join twitter with an account, i'll keep on reading what mika writes though! and i will love if he replies to someone, as he did with our skeptique!:thumb_yello:

and
i remember someone (lollipop love?) posted she has written an email to perez asking about the truthfulness of that mikasounds account, and perez answered that yes, it's mika's.

so, i already put a cross over myspace, then on mikasounds....let's see how long will that twitter fashion last!:naughty:

..........still waiting for an album and tour dates :fisch:

but yes...he's given us another toy to fill the gap with! :punk:

[RAK1]

Tbh, I hope Mika gets a Blip fm account next, it's flipping brilliant!!!
Apart from NOT having The Beatles on it, it's fantastic.
It's like Twitter but you are your own dj. I've been having a great afternoon listening to it. It's even got the new Basement Jaxx song on it!
Thanks to Mary for finding it, I love you baby penguin!:wub2:

[avoca]

logged in randomly on twitter this aftrenoon and saw people's replies to big M's entries.

I SERIOUSLY have been a stephen fry fan for years, so that comment of mika pleased me LOL :naughty:

and about new album, needless to say, I'm very happy about it. :punk:

on a negative note, I don't see why he's not posted it on mikasounds yet.

I see he likes to try his new toy and see how many people follow him there (half of the mfc already probably, me included..), but mikasounds is his official site and though it's entirely his decision to keep a blog on regular bases and therefore he's not forced to do so, i still think it's a bit bad mikasounds has not been updated since feb. 24th and we get all this scoops on smt like twitter. just my pointless personal pov. :blink:

and as I rightly thought, he had taken some days off.. lazy boy :mf_rosetinted:

I was checking twitter in the break in dutch class today, I was (and still am) so happy!!! :punk: This really made my day!!! :woot_jump:
I can't wait for the album! :wub2:

[ruxi]

i was uhmm having a sad depressed day today until i checked his twitter...(if i'm against it that doesn't mean i'm not reading it :fisch:)

AND HURRAY!!!! :bow: now... a week left for recording...then god knows how much left until a new clip and the actual release of the album... but we're getting there....slowly but sure
*does a little dance*

i was a bit scared of opening the forum though and i clicked on the 1st thread about the news.... i bet there are already a dozen more :roftl:
that's the MFC charm :wub2:

*goes back to do homework...this time with a happy face on*

Same as mine :thumb_yello:

In case it wasn't clear enough yet... :naughty:

When I read these twitter messages a few minutes ago - I was like WTF?! :groupwave: too good to be true!
I seriously can't wait!

:roftl:

haha my dear Alice :naughty: I can't imagine when we'll have the dates of the tour and of the album.. :blush-anim-cl:
:punk:

[Miro]

And I agree with people saying that it's weird to announce it only on twitter :blink: I mean something like THAT should have been posted on the blog, and on twitter too if he wishes.

[Moonlightchild]

Oh I'm so happy.
This was so unexpected!!!
:dance_man::toot::pbjt:
Before I was here,I was on Mikasouds,and I saw the worms where still there,that was a bit depressing and than I came here and the first thing I saw was this thread. I was wondering... is it aprilfoolday already?
or did Angie post this?
But I saw it on Twitter and now I was excited
that Mika had tweet and than again fexcited for the album and than again for the tweet and than......you know:naughty:
But the album recordings are almost done,that's the best.:dance_man:

[Moonlightchild]

And I agree with people saying that it's weird to announce it only on twitter :blink: I mean something like THAT should have been posted on the blog, and on twitter too if he wishes.
maybe he's making a vlog for it.

In a way , if he wants to satisfy all his fans , he should stick to the official blog and the other sites he updates on ... as not everyone wants to join other networks !




But, it's the same as when he started using Myspace and then 'switched' to the Mikasounds blog.

Nobody complained then that he was abandoning myspace...people just started looking at the blog instead (as he stopped paying myspace attention the minute the blog started getting all his time and efforts :naughty:). This is the same. One doesn't need to 'join' twitter to see what he posts, all you need is to look at his page, the same that we look at his blog or his myspace page. I really can't see the big deal :blink:.

This has nothing to do with jumping on a new fad; It's just a case of 'if you want to be informed, you have to look for the info', and if the info is in Twitter, then there it is where we look for it. What difference does the address that you type on your browser make?

I agree with you about the getting excited part; I'm sure that there is still a lot of work to be done until the album actually hits the shelves, so I will also reserve my excitement until then.

Oh, and I'm sure that when Mika actually has an 'announcement' to make re release date or such, he will do so on his blog. This was just a spontaneous, quick, excited update through his mobile, and that is why I find it precious.
The fact that he feels happy to post those little nuggets for us real time, and that he's clearly communicating and interacting (which he does NOT do on the blog) I find precious beyond words, and the silly Mika that I am seeing posting these things about looking like watermelons on Twitter is what has made my 'Mika love' come straight back after all these months of draught and disenchantment.

So yes, I for one am loving it, and I hope that he keeps at it. It's an invaluable tool to make quick easy updates on the go, and for that reason it will always be a 1000 times more immediate and spontaneous than any blog that he can write up and anyone else can post for him.
Heck, he doesn't even need to read the comments to approve them; Anyone can do that.

LONG LIVE THE MIKA TWITTER I say :wub2::naughty:

[Soaring Simpson]

I prefer the blogs.

Oh i have no problem wih twitter ! It was just in reply to rivers that yes it maybe isn't everyones cup of tea .... everyone to thier own i suppose ... some people prefer blogs others twitter ... I guess its hard to please everyone :thumb_yello:




Not me though ...
Im a twitter addict already , mika or no mika :roftl:

[avoca]

I prefer the blogs.

high five.



I did join twitter as, like I posted in the other thread, I'd go many places to follow mika's updates (like many of us anyway), but it doesn't quite match my tastes as the blogs did/do.

[Soaring Simpson]

I'm also pretty addicted :boxed:, and not just cause of Mika at all, I am enjoying being silly with everyone, and just for the sake of it :naughty:.


Just for the record though: I didn't say that I don't like the blogs, or even that I prefer Twitter.

I also love the blogs, vlogs, pictures, etc.. and I hope that he will keep doing them.

All that I'm saying is that one thing doesn't exclude the other, and I believe that him Twittering from his iphone on the go isn't detracting him from the blog: He probably wouldn't be blogging in the first place. He will go back to it at some point, when he has stuff to talk about or post, and that's it :thumb_yello:.

true, i think twitter is good if he uses it for filling the long breaks between blogs.

when he post blogs just for the sake of it,ppl start saying things like he's being random again,he's running out of blog ideas etc. but it won't happen on twitter because twitter is being random as far as i see:naughty:

Bolded Part - Me too :roftl::roftl:

and i agree with you ! Twitter is great for a quick update , blogs and vlogs for more info ....... hopefully the next one will be an album sampler :fisch::naughty:

:wink2:

[DarkLight]

I was very excited to see the post, and to read that he's nearly done. What I don't understand is this constant request for him to also blog it= What's the point in that? Duplication?

The beauty of Twitter is that he can make quick, spontaneous, short posts like these from the convenience of his phone, without having to sit at the computer and think out a paragraph to write, including WHAT to write about, then worry about how it looks, etc...

This is fun and easy, and I am embracing it. I think that we should go with the flow and just enjoy what he's doing now :punk:

yup indeed i agree! he's a very busy bunny & probably can't be doing with writing blogs all the time (mush as some of us would love him to!)

Wohooo one more week one more weeeekkkkkkkkkkk wha? i think i must be on something coffeee coffeeee cofeeee hang on wait i don't drink coffee then why am I so hyper?? Mikaaaaaa that's why eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :boing: :boing: :boing:

Well, to me the fact that he's updating Tweeter from his phone and not the net already suggests that we wouldn't be getting blogs right now anyway, so yes, he's busy and/or on the go and this is ideal :naughty:

[Christine]

I really can't guess when the album is going to hit the shelves. Aside from the fact that Greg will still be working on it after Mika is finished recording, there are marketing considerations and I have no idea what their game plan is.

I don't understand all this fuss about him not posting on the blog because this isn't critical news by any stretch. We still don't have a release date or any details on what will happen leading up to it. Honestly it seemed to me like he just threw it out there as an afterthought and no one should leap to any conclusions based on this small piece of incomplete info. If I have to hear about how Mika is breaking promises again because we don't have an album next week I'm going to scream.

Mika has not stopped blogging because he's distracted with Twitter. He hadn't blogged in weeks. When he doesn't have anything critical to say on his blog people moan at him so what is the point?

It seems this argument always comes down to exactly the same thing...everyone wants information on the album and tours. But he's just not ready to announce it yet and that is that. If he wants to use Twitter to keep us amused in the interim I am all for it.

If I have to hear about how Mika is breaking promises again because we don't have an album next week I'm going to scream.

Mika has not stopped blogging because he's distracted with Twitter. He hadn't blogged in weeks. When he doesn't have anything critical to say on his blog people moan at him so what is the point?

It seems this argument always comes down to exactly the same thing...everyone wants information on the album and tours. But he's just not ready to announce it yet and that is that. If he wants to use Twitter to keep us amused in the interim I am all for it.

that's what i was trying to say too!

let him be random on twitter,and give important information on blog.
and if the album recording being finished was huge news,he would post a blog.
i think it was as important as the vegge burger he just had:naughty:

he's just telling what he's up to,a sign of life as someone says.
and isn't that what we always wanted?:blink:

As I mentioned I think what people want is release and tour dates. And until we get it there will always be an excuse to moan about something. I think we're really scraping the bottom of the barrel here complaining that he is posting on one page of the internet and not another. :rolls_eyes:

ohhhhhh absolutely... dam if he does, dam if he doesn't :wink2:

I really can't guess when the album is going to hit the shelves. Aside from the fact that Greg will still be working on it after Mika is finished recording, there are marketing considerations and I have no idea what their game plan is.

I don't understand all this fuss about him not posting on the blog because this isn't critical news by any stretch. We still don't have a release date or any details on what will happen leading up to it.

i fully, completely agree with you.

As for the album release, did I only dream that someone posted 28th September on one of the threads a couple of weeks ago?

This sounds most realistic.

Well, to me the fact that he's updating Tweeter from his phone and not the net already suggests that we wouldn't be getting blogs right now anyway, so yes, he's busy and/or on the go and this is ideal :naughty:
I agree! Twitter is brilliant for a guy who is as busy as Mika must be. I think he took to heart the fact that we want more updates from him, but he doesn't have time to post a blog on his site. Therefore, Twitter suits his, and our, purposes.
But I don't think he's abandoned his site, it's just that Twitter is more convienient. He will probably post the new Sophie Blackall round when he's ready to, and hopefully, his tour dates, album/single release dates, etc on the mikasounds site.

[Mika4Life13]

I was very excited to see the post, and to read that he's nearly done. What I don't understand is this constant request for him to also blog it= What's the point in that? Duplication?

The beauty of Twitter is that he can make quick, spontaneous, short posts like these from the convenience of his phone, without having to sit at the computer and think out a paragraph to write, including WHAT to write about, then worry about how it looks, etc...

This is fun and easy, and I am embracing it. I think that we should go with the flow and just enjoy what he's doing now :punk:
"worry how it looks"

I'm sure he puts much time into looking at his lack of punctuation marks.
dont, wont, cant..

[racinghorse83]

whoooo cares about punctuation marks? i for say that i certainly dont.
