Savage Beauty

I realized, I already have a profile there, but I never managed to use it properly as they keep using an old avatar instead of the one I'm using now.. I have no idea how to update it with my new picture.

her WHAT??

Am loving all the news these days

Hole- He hit me (and it felt like a kiss)

How about having this as a default setting (since it IS the colours of the new artwork after all), and then having different skins that the members can choose on their own settings page?

BTW, anyone seen this yet? Jimmy Kimmel, acting like Kanye West, interrupts Brandon Flowers at The Killers Hollywood Bowl concert September 16, 2009.

Side2.no Picture sub-text: Mika, here performing on Sentrum Scene, tells the tale of troubled teen years wrapped in cartoon-pop on his new record. BOUNCE AROUND WITH MIKA Mika sticks with the cartoon- pop, but his lyrics have double meanings.. Mika bounced in on the music scene with his "Life in cartoon motion" 2 years ago. Now he's back and has moved from childhood to adolescence. "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" is a trip through Mika's teen years, with his characteristic falsettos and a love of synth. Mika has definitely moved a little bit away from "Life in Cartoon Motion" even if it doesn't seem that way the first time you hear it, but the question is how many will take the time to stop and listen to what he actually sings. It could appear to just be more of what we've already heard. Disguised as happy go lucky rythm-pop Mika chirps "I hate days like this". On the show tune song "Toy Boy" he sings a somewhat biting lyrics; "Your momma thought it had to be somethin' wrong, wouldn't let you sleep with boys too long". The song shows some Rufus Wainwright inspiration without ever really managing to reach up to that level. "Touches You" is simply a tribute to George Michael, while the first track, "We Are Golden" reminds us of Belinda Carlisles "Heaven Is A Place On Earth". "Blame It On The Girls" is a nod towards the superhit "I Don't Feel Like Dancing". Our tip is that "Good Girl Gone" is a song that will stick to people's brains all autumn long. Mika jumps around his pop-y univers in a way that makes your rythm-foot tap away, and sometimes seems more indifferent. For those of us who actually have a relationship with 80's synthpop, "I See You" is just the kind of ballad you wish you had when the spotty boy of our dreams was standing in the corner and may have been available for a closer dance than you really dared hoping for. Besides, those fake caribian rythms, such as in "Blue Eyes" were so trendy. Mika IS a bouncing ball, but he has a lot weighing on his heart. Through drum-machines and happy rythms, you can still see his message of vulnerability, about standing on the outside looking in, about the boy who knew too much.

I just heard today and have already marked my calendar

This is what I was thinking about from before Telling Muse to mime = bad idea. And where they were forced to mime and Matt rebells in his own little way (this one is sound only unfortunately, but worth a listen, it's hilarious)

I was laughing my guts out when I saw it They've done it before too, haven't they? As a revenge for not being allowed to sing live?

Mika was a cheeky one today!

Ugh, I was hoping they'd stay above the whole "Taking Rob back- even if only for one night" thing.. they're so much better off as a foursome now.. this'll be like taking a massive step backwards :-/

I'm really "happy" for your nomination Kanye and imma let you finish, but Mika is the best male of all time! of ALL TIME!

Or apparate!!

Nå ca er innspillingen ferdig? Må vite når jeg skal ta tog eller buss tilbake til Norge.. So cool that both Norway and Sweden's representatives will be there, but we should've had Denmark's as well

No pirat-taxis then As if I'd ever risk that anywhere anyway I know, right?? Edit: I added you on twitter as well, hope you don't mind

is it very difficult to get there from the central station? and are taxis safe?

Haha, ja vi er jo visstnok de vakreste i verden!! Ooooh de skandinaviske piker, oooooh *dramatisk stemme*

Ooooh nice Og hvem vet, kanskje det blir Mika-turné med konserter i alle de Skandinaviske landene så vi kan ta en liten Scandinavian tour selv også

I'm going, I'm going!! *holds up hand eagerly* edit: That's if I get a ticket of course!

hahahahah, det hadde jeg nesten glemt Er det ingenting du kan gjøre for å være med?? :(

Takk, jeg har allerede funnet ut når det går tog og buss

Hvis jeg kan få billett til showet så reiser jeg fra Norge!! Seriøst!!

He has ripped off Take That's old Relight My Fire costumes

Er det jeg håper på, men de pleier ikke å si ifra hvem som er gjester før billettene blir gitt ut, så man må finne det ut selv.. prøver å tenke ut hvem andre jeg kan maile, men.. Det er sikkert i Oslo eller Bergen.. er vel der NRK har store studioer
