guylainem123 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 http://www.chartsinfrance.net/MIKA/news-74854.html TRANSLATION: Mika, whose return to the musical scene is evident as weeks go by, is preparing the set for his next video clip for "Elle me dit". If we are to believe the rumors, the French actress Fanny Ardant would appear as a guest star. After a European tour, marked by a triumphant concert at Compiegne on July 9, Mika returns to the front of the musical scene with his debut single, "Elle me dit". The song is already playing on the radio, but it will soon be on your tv screens. The rumor on the internet, especially twitter is that actress Fanny Ardant would feature in the clip. No official statement or denial at the moment, his label is also silent on the subject. But who better than Fanny Ardant to mark the occasion of his first song in the language of Molière and to represent the French elegance? "Elle me dit" will appear on the next album "The Origin Of Love", due to come out in early 2012. In addition to being sung in French, the song also differs from his usual style. Though it is pop, it is heavily loaded with electronic sounds. Some even compare this song to "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO. As for the song lyrics, the British singer brilliantly managed the transition from English to French, which is not surprising when you consider he has lived for several years on this side of the Channel. Mika, like many artists, spoke through his website about the death of Amy Winehouse and also about the Norway victims. "The death of Amy Winehouse left me terribly shocked and saddened, " Mika also had the difficult task of replacing the singer at the Paleo Festival in Nyon, after the announcement of her death. "It was sad and difficult for me to go on stage so soon after her death was announced, knowing that she was originally suppose to be on stage that night. The concert was dedicated to her, my thoughts are with her family. Also affected by the pain of the Norwegian people, the singer wrote: "We also took a moment during the concert and dedicated a song to the victims of the terrible attacks in Norway." About his next album, Mika is very prolific, revealing his inspirations and his new title, "The Origin Of Love ". There will be twelve songs of love with different styles. I lived difficult times this year. My sister, who works with me on tour, had a serious accident. She fell from the 4th floor. She is beginning to walk again, she is an incredible fighter. With all this, I needed a change and to do things that i really love. He continues by explaining "I have seven songs that I love and I need twelve. This time I decided to work with lots of different people: Empire Of The Sun, the producer William Orbit. Tomorrow, I'm going back into the studio with French DJ Martin Solveig. I write songs in French, as a bonus on my next record. Some sounds like a mix between Supertramp and Polnareff. There is a track called "82, rue des Martyrs" which is a bar in Paris, next door to Michou, where i like to go to 3 am. There, I met a girl named Karen, who told me about her life and I made a song."
