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…

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

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:

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:

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...

I've been like this for TBWKTM too, I haven't liked WAG or Rain completely, honestly. Nothing will compare LICM as surprise effects, originality and amazingness :naughty:

But I loved the second album too, and I picked up my favourites. Probably it will be the same with the third one.

Too early to tell :wink2:

 

Thanks for trying to cure me...you are my nicorette :lmfao:

what demential lyrics

I don't think it's counterproductive. Many people buy songs because they sound like other songs around ( explaining the very repetitive nature of chart music) or because everyone else buys them. They are unlikely to buy the entire album. Mika puts a song out, hopefully a hit, which loads of people buy, from which he gets money and people hear about him. That way, he can carry on making mikamusic for his fans. But yeah, see what you mean, MYH and Celebrate are much more mainstream ( and IMHO less good) than TOOL, Lola and Underwater. This has confused me. Is the album going to be more mainstream or alternative?

 

Anyway, Lola sounds good until the drums come in, then all I can hear is thud,thud,thud. T4P anyway!:thumb_yello:

Lyrics! I know there must be some mistakes and I found it difficult to decipher a few things :doh: so feel free to fix it =)

 

I think it's a good song :teehee: a bit repetitive though with all the Lola-ing but I guess that's just because he was interacting with the crowd :teehee:

 

Lola

 

(missed all the Lola-ing bit out :mf_rosetinted:)

Don’t believe a word cos they are so wrong

 

Lola, Lola

 

Oh such lies are mystery

They don’t bring out the best in me

Keep talking from a lover to another

Oh fake (a something) ?? , time you’ve changed

But do not make a mess of me

I made the same mistake of going nowhere

 

(Oh) Lola, I’ve made up my mind

And I’m not going to fall in love this time (x2)

 

Lola, oh Lola

 

Oh, I pretend to be so jaded

It's so easy just to hate it

Everyone can love you for another

But when you find your lust for real

You beg and borrow, cheat or steal

Trying to get some money just to call her

 

(Oh) Lola, I’ve made up my mind

And I’m not going to fall in love this time (x2)

 

Like a fish out of water

Lift into our beds, with you, I(???????)

Why do we even bother

When there’s only one way out

And we both know it, Lover

 

(Oh) Lola, I’ve made up my mind

And I’m not going to fall in love this time (x2)

 

Oh you could stop it if you try

Love makes you laugh, it makes you cry

The oldest game in history, repeating. (x2)

Lola baby, it’s just another love song…

 

EDIT: used Bia's lyrics to fix, thanks Bia and Poisonyourlove xD

Lola sounds good so far.

Same, the album probably sounds quite different. Though I have to say the videos I've heard from tiibet today were very good, resulting in the songs sounding a bit better too :naughty:

True enough, but I already accepted that a while ago.
