Hey guys. I know we have several people on here who are into piano/guitar, etc. So I thought I'd make a thread for those looking to learn to play any of the new songs! I've been working on "Blame it on the Girls" and "Toy Boy." Is anyone interested? -Blame it on the Girls I've figured out for piano and guitar, the chord progression i've come up with is basically D7 (a little trouble with this one, but play D, E F# and A) , A major, D major, back to A major, then B minor. Then with the left hand just repetitively play E, A, D, C#, B along with the chords. This pretty much repeats throughout the song. For guitar I just used very simple A chords and stuff if any…

I love to listen to Mika's version of another artist's songs He sings them in completely different way, but we can still follow the conception of a song. And this makes them sound like something new, just invented by Mika. And I love to observe the transformation of a song. So, I decided to gather here all other singers songs covered by Mika and also put an original version wherever it's possible. It would be amazing to do this with your help, guys! If this kind of Thread already exists, please tell me. Because I found only thread, discussing how people covered Mika's song, but not how Mika did this by himself. Ok, let's begin with some of my f…

Lets discuss this incredible new version of Overrated here! Produced by Swedish producer Klas Åhlund (Teddybears Stlm) who produced Robyn's Body Talk albums and you can hear the similarities between some of Robyn's songs and Overrated. I know that a lot of fans prefer the older version of Overrated but to me that's a completely different song (and absolutely beautiful). In my opinion, this one is equally beautiful and then some, in a very different way. Yes, it's a dance/club song with incredibly gorgeous sounding synths, but the lyrics are quite heartbreakingly beautiful as well. That combination sends shivers down my spine, especially when he's singing about wanting hi…

Hi guys! I dunno if this thread is repeated i'm posting it to know the mika lyrics that u guys have misheard! it happenes to me a lot for example in MI i thought that he was saying: "and toss me up and down" instead of "curse me up and down" in Lollipop i heard it like this "she's a player and a downright whore" while it was "she's a player and a downright bore" .. correct me if i'm STILL wrong plus i still dunno if it's "jesus slows up" or "jesus wants her" .. i think it's the first one though BTW the lyrics in the CD booklet are completely messed up I hope to see ur posts on this subject.. thank u guys

I was thinking that we should probably collect all the facts Mika has ever said about his songs – with special focus on the circumstances of songwriting (place, time, influence) as well as the story behind the lyrics. Let me start with something he mentioned at Sadlers Wells as most of you did not attend that gig: He introduced Happy Ending as the song whose demo he recorded with Ida in Chiswick and they never thought how big it would eventually become... so, collecting simple facts is what I mean .. if you like this thread we can gather quite a bit of info ...

Y'a des baisers qui s'perdent Des baisers qui trainent comme des chats gris sur les toits de Paris Qui vivent leur vie. Y'a des baisers qui s'perdent En chemin, qui s'retrouvent comme des cons Des baisers vagabonds Qui dorment sous les ponts Où coule la Seine Un peu de leur peine On ne sauve plus des baisers perdus Y'a des baisers qui s'perdent Des baisers qui rêvent d'être volés Qui n'ont jamais osés aller se poser Y'a des baisers qui s'prennent En photo, des baisers de Doisneau Moi j'reste le bec dans l'eau Dans le caniveau Où finit l'amour un peu chaque jour On ne sauve plus des baisers perdus Où s'en vont-ils Ces baisers qui s…

With all the new song threads coming up, this song needs one for sure, too! Here is the beautiful snippet: iUNwZKllD34 Starting from 0:52 min And part of the lyrics: "...walked to the jungle that used to be my town, everything is different, he turned it upside down, it happened to me, totally unprepared, it's the beginning, but I'm not even scared..." Does somebody get the second part when he starts to talk? Walk through the city like stupid people do A million faces, but all I'm seeing is you I'm stopping strangers and telling them your name Convincin' haters, one day they'll feel the same We're common people, we're common peop…

PROMISELAND I was born in that summer when the sun didn't shine I was given the name that doesn't feel like it's mine Lived my life as the good boy I was told I should be Prayed every night to a religion that was chosen for me Sold my soul broke my bones Tell me what did I get Did my time, toed the line Ain't seen anything yet Strike me down to the ground You know I've seen it before Make it hurt I'll eat the dirt I just don't care anymore How could you break my heart Already played my part I kept my promise man Show me the promiseland Don't occupy my throne Give me the crown I own Lived like you told me how Look at me now I've got no money in my pocket And the w…

Definitely one of my fave songs from this album! Here's what I could figure out from the lyrics so far, not sure about a few bits though... any other ideas? EDIT: Lyrics so far (group effort ) Psychotic Barney Mika Rap Laa laa, laa laa You were the popular one, the popular chick It is what it is, now I'm popular b*tch Standing on the field with your pretty pom-pom Now you're working at the movies selling popular corn I could've been a mess but I never went wrong 'Cause I'm putting down my stories in a popular song Mh, Ah, Oh Said I'm putting down my story in a popular song My problem I never was a model I never was a scholar You wer…

Translation from Italian: My new Italian single comes out at midnight! Great inspirations are born from the love for beautiful music! I recorded a cover of the fantastic song Bella d’Estate that Mango wrote with Lucio Dalla in the 1980s. With me in this new version there is @michelebravi: we had fun in a duet that will surprise you! Production by @thekatoo

This is a really cool and catchy song! Just can´t find it on spotify anywhere! Also one of my favorites! Love MIKAs nerdy, dirty look in this video! And his zig zag shirt! And i really believe him when he sings "I could change the worldI can make it better, kick it up and down. Take a chance on me", etc. Such a good actor! And the way he moves at the end... Just, WOW!

As there's more and more info not related to a certain song but to the album itself, I'm opening a thread where you can share info about the album, chat about what you expect from it, and after its release on October 4, 2019, say what you think about it.

Hi everyone, I have never bought music online. I usually buy the CDs and I listen to Spotify (without subscription and with the ads). I would like to purchase Mika's last 3 songs/cooperations. I went on Amazon as I have Android devices. Living in New Zealand, I cannot purchase on Amazon.com where these songs are available. But they are not available on the Australian amazon 😢 Can anyone please give me some tips? Maybe another website where to do this? I mean I can always ask my mum in France to purchase and download for me, and then email me, but that seems a bit silly. It's a bit sad really that it is so easy to hack and download for free and so hard to do…
