I think the most amazing thing about Mika's music is that every song has a slightly different meaning to each listener and that's why even the happy sounding songs that have happy lyrics can trigger sadness in some and why the happy sounding songs with sad lyrics make others smile. His music is so autobiographical, when you're putting yourself out in the open like that there's always a risk: not everyone likes it. But Mika carried on despite criticism, especially on 'The Boy Who Knew Too Much' if he hadn't of carried on, I don't think many of us would have learned as much about ourselves as we have. Each song gives a little bit of him away, like taking a chunk of your…

–plus links to key critical reviews To celebrate tonight’s album listening party let me open a thread for your album reviews. You can write in any length here, of course, but I plan to link only the 'review' type of thoughts in this first post in alphabetical order and doing it by time periods, to separate the latest ones, although you can also see the postcount in the links. Besides, I'd like to link some of the critical reviews here as well - not necessarily only positive ones, but those that are more than just a reworded press release.

As there are several threads on what other artists you like, I thought it might be a good idea to collect Mika’s favourite music / musicians on one thread in case you want to check out any names unknown to you. (It would be similar to the A-list MFC thread, so additional names are welcome, these are only names that first came to my mind) Rules: only 'documented mentions’ count I., Main influences: popular music: The Beatles, Queen, Michael Jackson, Prince, Harry Nilsson, Kurt Weill, Bob Dylan, Elton John, David Bowie, Serge Gainsbourg, Joan Baez, The Who, Beck classical music: W.A.Mozart, Rossini, Schubert, Kurt Weill, Igor Stravinsky II., Other musicans he likes: …

I know we have the review-thread already, but I thought it would be interesting to see which songs are the favourites on "Origin of Love". So I hope it is okay to open this new thread as it has got another intention. Therefore, I'd like to ask you to rate every song on OOL with a mark between 1 and 10 (with 1 the lowest and 10 the highest rating). I think that will reflect the overall evaluation better than only naming one / a few favorites. I'm going to post average values for the songs from time to time. And it would be great if you would only rate the studio-version, not the live-versions. It wouldn't be fair towards the songs that Mika hasn't played life yet…

Please note: This is NOT an anti-MIKA or a hate thread, I'm a huge fan of MIKA. This is just something I've noticed and people have taken it the wrong way. Have any of you heard a few familiar sounds in MIKA's 'Emily'? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sei_HxkPnxY

Thanks to everyone who contributed to putting together the song lyrics and to Tiibet for providing the first video of the only performance we have of the English Elle Me Dit (so far!) She tells me can't you write a happy song Get your ass to number one You could try a little harder She tells me you could be a millionaire But you're so full of hot air Gonna end up like your father She tells me you can't leave your life to chance Get a girl and learn to dance Be a boy like any other She tells me why you got so much to say Are you stuck up, are you gay Gonna end up like your brother She tells me it's my life Don’t get to live it twice One day you'll …

Mika sang for the first time tonight "Step with me" in the Netherlands Lucky people who heard it live Can we figure out the words? Step With Me Is this happening to me? Have I lost all my defenses? Should I wait around and see What it's like to lose my senses? Always looking for the chase From the high ground to the ditches But the chase I'll never miss Now I know what happiness is This love's delicious Like home-cooked dishes I'm tasting mischievously Step 1, come a little closer Step 2, rest upon my shoulder Step 3, I'm calling you baby Three steps away from me Step 4, we can get married Step 5, top it with a cherry Step 6, as…

I think there should be a separate thread for this song. from Compiégne: [YOUTUBE]X4ysl8mDOag&feature=player_embedded[/YOUTUBE] I like this song as it is really melodic. I think at this moment the lyrics and the violins might make it sound a bit over-sentimental but this song has potential. I guess it will depend on how the final version of it will be produced and who will sing it. Here is a much better version: I think Ida starting it gave some more security for Mika, probably, and she was also more restrained, which made a huge difference. No2 :I think this is the best version so far (from Switzerland): ETA Lyrics (so far) courtesy of …

listen. So... Ive been doing research all night. I have found out only this much: When the Royal Opera House did their 1998 performance of "Pilgrim's Progress" Mika played the Woodcutter's Boy, and can be heard on the recording. He has a song of his own in Act IV, Scene I (Act 4 Scene 1) "The Pilgrim Meets Mister By-Ends" I would LOOOOVEEE to hear what Mika sounded like when he was 15! Unfortunatly, the song is only available on Itunes through ALBUM ONLY. Which means you would have to buy the whole $20.00 album just to hear the song. I have no luck anywhere else on the internet or youtube. Can anyone help me out? I WANT TO HEAR IT! PLEASE HELP!…

This is very important question for promoting Mika. I registered in Secret Society, but haven't wrote there anything. But anyway, I promote Mika in Ukraine (just have no time to make reports in SS). So, what song you would choose to introduce Mika to people who just vaguely heard of him? It is not a question of your favourite song! My fav is OFB, but I'm aware that no-fan will not understand it at first at all. My neighbour got to know that I'm a Mika fan and said: no, I've heard his song, and I didn't liked it, too squeaky. It was LT. Maybe if she heard some other song, she would liked it? So, what song is better to make people like Mika?

No, not one of the new songs, but maybe the melody of an old one I was searching the catalogue of the GEMA (the performance rights organization in Germany) to see if / which new songs are registered there. And I found a song called "Kings of Rock'n'Roll" there, where PENNIMAN, MICHAEL HOLBROOK is listed as the composer. https://online.gema.de/werke/detailPage.do?dbkey=28039595&title=KINGS+OF+ROCKN+ROLL&pdf=false There are some extra information which are saying that it's a "transformation" (which means a new work is formed but the original is recognizable). In this case it basically means that they wrote new lyrics and the melody is from Mika (maybe …
