Ayumi

I'm a huge fan of Adam! I went to his tour a few weeks ago and he was just simply amazing.

Did you guys know Adam is following Mika on twitter? I bet Adam's a fan of MIKA!

Hey guys I am not sure if I am allowed to bump a thread as old as this one. but does anyone know the chance of HMDYLM being included on the new album? I mean, it is considered a very old song because he's performed it a lot in the past year. It is one of my favorite new songs by MIKA and I really would like for it to be on the album so I can listen to it in high quality so I am a bit worried that it may not be included in the new album.

Thanks in advance for any comments.

number 5!

Congrats, MIKA!

What the hell is "male" album ????

 

I know this place is insane !

Now that I read it, it does sound weird. "Male album". haha. But at least I got my point across.

I just saw the update version of the album charts and MIKA sold another 112,000 copies and it's in its 43rd week. He's so ahead of so many people!

Usually after these award shows, album sales soar. Let's hope it works for MIKA!

What's wrong with that list? *except from Mika*

 

oh yeah. It's all that kind of music.

I'm not too fond of the list too. The only albums I thought was good was, obviously, MIKA, and Norah Jones. The rest is just "meh" to me.

OK for Ayumi and Rose, the Japanese one is quite reasonably priced (and comes with the little stickers) if you get it from

http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B000PDZON0

 

There should be a link up the top right which says see this page in English, and you can follow the whole purchase procedure through in English. It is also available from HMV Japan, in English, but I couldn't see the sticker version any more there, although you might get that version when the package arrives.

 

Now, in return for sharing this valuable piece of information, can anyone tell me where to get the French limited edition of LiCM cheaply, please? I know it has a green MIKA on the front, not a pink one. The only one I can find is about $35 USD.

Oh I actually know it's available in Amazon Japan and HMV but the shipping cost is ALOT So I'm actually waiting to see if they have it in Little Tokyo so I can buy it without the shipping price. lol. And I don't like waiting from having to order online. They actually have the limited edition in CDJapan that cost 16USD. I'm thinking of pre-ordering that one.

And Wow, I think you have the most LiCM editions/versions here. xD Congratulations!

Same here, and if you can tell me where I can get the Japanese version, I'll get that too.

Congratulations to the big guy for being the best selling male artist of the year, very well deserved.

You could get the Japanese version here actually. It cost 16 USD without shipping. People outside of Japan buy J-POP CDs here all the time. And it's the limited edition! But I'm not sure what's IN the limited edition.

If the above link doesn't work: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=UICU-9037

Hope that helps!

Yay! I can proudly say I contributed by buying 2 albums out of that 4.4 million.

I bought 2 copies too! The UK and US versions. I'm planning on buying the Japan version but it's SO expensive.

I know the year 2007 is not officially over yet but there's only two more weeks left and it doesn't seem like any other solo male artist is going to come near MIKA's sales for "Life in Cartoon Motion" before the end of the year.

Here's the current top 10 selling albums worldwide. Albums that are released in 2007.

1. Minutes to Midnight - Linkin Park 5.1million

2. The Best Damn Thing - Avril Lavigne 4.7million

3. LIFE IN CARTOON MOTION - MIKA 4.4 million

4. High School Musical 2 - Soundtrack 4.3million

5. Not Too Late - Norah Jones 3.9million

6. Call Me Irresponsible - Michael Buble 3.6million

7. Long Road Out of Eden - Eagles 3.2million

8. It Won't Be Soon Before Long - Maroon 5 3.1million

9. Good Girl Gone Bad - Rihanna 3.0 million

10. Timbaland Shock Value 2.8million

CONGRATULATIONS TO MIKA FOR HAVING A VERY SUCCESSFUL DEBUT and SUCCESSFUL YEAR!

Bring on the second album!

MIKA is number 3 overall and number 1 for solo male singer! That's huge, right?

The song is wonderful!

HOLY----that was great! My favorite video so far! I'm sending it to all my friends.

Does anyone know when the video is debutting? (Sorry if this has been asked)

but i can't wait!

That's so cool. He's like, everywhere now!

LiCM is at number 3 with 115,000 copies sold around the world the past week. Total sales stands at around 3.2 million now.

MIKA is number two this week on the GLOBAL TRACK CHART! 122,000 copies sold worldwide last week. Damn. If it wasn't for High School Musical, MIKA would have been number one. But there's more chances to peak at number one in the coming future when RELAX becomes even bigger worldwide.

I heard getting a Daimond status in France is not easy at all. It's amazing that they like MIKA so much. They have good taste in music!
