Lola - new song
 

Tonight, July 5th, at Ollesummer, Estonia, Mika sang Lola for the first time...
Thanks to a few MFCers (especially Tiibet for this video), we get to hear it :wub2:



EDIT: Here's a 45 second clip of the recorded version:

Lyrics anyone? :teehee:

Lola

People always make me crazy
Love me lots, don’t love me maybe
What’s the point in singing silly love songs?
Who do they think they are to tell us?
Make me sad and make me jealous
Don’t believe a word 'cause they are so wrong

Lola, Lola

Oh sex and lies and mystery
They don't bring out the best in me
Keep jumping from one lover to another
Thank you for the time you've taken
Cleanin' up the mess I'm makin'
Make the same mistake over and over

Lola, I’ve made up my mind
I’m not gonna fall in love this time (x2)

Lola

Why pretend to be so jaded
It's so easy just to hate it
Anyone can love you for a dollar
But when you find your love's for real
You'll beg and borrow, cheat and steal
Trying to get the money just to call her

Lola, I’ve made up my mind
I’m not gonna fall in love this time (x2)

Like a fish out of water
It picks you up and spits you out
Why do we even bother
When there’s only one way out
And we both know it, lover

Lola, I’ve made up my mind
I’m not gonna fall in love this time (x2)

You can't stop it if you try
Love makes you laugh, it makes you cry
The oldest game in history, repeated. (x2)

Lola
Lola babe it’s just another love song (x2)

Lola, I’ve made up my mind
Lola babe it’s just another love song (x2)

(Lola, lololollala lalala)

Lola babe, it’s just another love song…

working on that, but any help is very welcome :teehee::teehee::teehee:

:blush-anim-cl: I adore this song!!! 8D

i love it! :wub2: it is just so.... qaljflsfjlsjlkl *speechless* :swoon:

Here's what I could hear, of course there are parts missing because some people got really excited at the show :mf_rosetinted: :aah:

Any native english speaker to give me a help??? :original:


Lola, Lola
Oh Lola, oh Lola

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah (4x)

Lola, oh Lola

Lola

People always make me crazy
Love me last or love me maybe
What’s the point of singing silly love songs
Who do they think they are to tell us
Make me sad, make me jealous
Don’t believe a word, cause they are so wrong

Lola, Lola

Such a (???) of mistery
And (???) up the best of me
Keep talking about a lover to another
Back and forth...
???
Make me do never the same mistake over and over

Lola I’ve made up my mind
And I’m not gonna fall in love this time

Oh Lola I’ve made up my mind
And I’m not gonna fall in love this time

Lola, oh Lola

What... so jaded
It’s so easy just to hate it
Anyone can love you for a dollar

But when you find out love is for real
You beg and borrow, cheat and steal
Try to get the money
And just (???)

Lola I’ve made up my mind
And I’m not gonna fall in love this time (2x)

Like a fish out of water
It put you up and it put you down (???)
???
???
???

Lola I’ve made up my mind
And I’m not gonna fall in love this time (2x)

You could stop it if you try
If it makes you laugh or it makes you cry
The oldest game in history, repeating.

Oh you could stop it if you could try
If it makes you laugh or it makes you cry
The oldest game in history, repeating.

Lola,
Oh Lola baby It’s just another love song

Lola, aaaaaaaah
Oh Lola, baby It’s just another love song

Lola I’ve made up my mind
Oh Lola, baby, It’s just another love song (2x)

Lola, oh Lola
Oh Lola, LoLoLoLoLa
LoLoLoLoLa
LoLoLoLoLa

Oh Lo
Lola, baby, It’s just another love song

I've put what I hear in red. I can't guarantee that I'm right, though. :blush-anim-cl:

better than nothing and that makes sense, big thanks :hug: :hug:
gonna edit it :wink2:

And I can't listen to it as I'm at work...merde...:sneaky2:

:shocked:



This song is funny!!! And catchy!!


And for a strange reason now I´m starting to think that ANY song of the album would have been better single than Celebrate :aah::aah:




@Christine sorry to hear he says "fish" in this song :mf_rosetinted:

:thumb_yello: awesomely brilant:wub2:

yes, for he says he makes alternative pop and Celebrate it the only one that is standardised pop, so that is misleading album buyers IMO and is counterproductive.

why after MYH and Underwater do I find the rest banal or cheap?

I definitely need to listen to a proper album on CD :dunno:

Looking forward to my home gig anyway, I'm sure I'll make up my mind then :original:

I wouldn´t even say that it´s standarsished pop... or at least not the kind of pop that Rihanna or any of those who are always #1 make. And those who are following that pop, they are not going to buy Mika´s album... IMO (maybe I´m wrong and he´s going to crash the charts :aah:).


Mika has his own audience, and his label should work so that we are happy and keep on buying his albums. So, Celebrate is not the best option now that we´ve listened to several songs...
