I just wanted to add that for some people in the US, the Brits will air Thursday night at 8:00 (ET) on the CBET channel. That's channel 99 for me.

Haha! That is awesome!!! I was wondering what happened to Mika when so many people were onstage, and now I can see that he was in the middle of the massive crowd, and they're all dancing and jumping around him! Brilliant!

Sweeeet. Thank you!

*does a little dance*

Yay! tako, thank you! And Sivan! Once again, great videos! LOVE that zoom.

There's video of this?? Post...please? I might cry, but please...! Thank you for posting the review!!! Love your pictures, and reading the second half of your conversation with Mika! Mika must have Googled or MySpaced you or something--that is so cool! I would LOVE to hear how he knew you are a jazz singer. (And side note: so awesome that you are! I'm a sing-when-no-one-can-hear-me singer, lol. But I sing all the time--love it!) If you get to sing with Mika someday you better believe I want to be there!

Thank you!!! *runs off to read*

Thank you for the YouTube links, Mana!! (That venue looks really cool!) THAT IS AWESOME!!! (Wish I could have been there!) And I am all for an MFC-only show in London. That would be amazing.

AAAH thank you!!! Perfect timing! (Do you have the whole audio interview, too??)

Hey all! So I'm in love with Mika @ Live Lounge that he did at the end of last year, but most of the videos and all of the audio interviews have been removed from YouTube. This is pretty much all that's left: Short version of "Teardrop" 7 song shuffle Does anyone have the videos/audio they'd be willing to share? The interview was great, and I love the three acoustic performances on video!

Thank you for posting that! #1: I wish I could see the Brits on US TV!! (EDIT: I just checked our TV and apparently the crazy new digital cable we got was worth it because I can watch The Brits on Thursday the 21st! YESS!!!) #2: Mika has his own party?! I wanna go and congratulate him! (Cause I know it's going to be a big night!)

Sivan, this really is one of the most beautiful Mika videos I've ever seen. It deserves its own thread, so thank you for making one! It's one of his songs that means the most to me. I actually cried in Toronto when he sang it, but then a security guard was looking at me really strange, so I got embarrassed and calmed down. But yeah, gorgeous. Thank you again.

A. Clay, this thread is brilliant--thank you! Of course I love shirtless Mika, but I also REALLLLY love cuddly Mika in his hats and scarves.

Thank you for the video links! I was bopping along in my seat, singing along with "Love Today" just now.

AAAH, wonderful report, DaMango! I love the shirt you gave him--so glad John gave it to Mika. And I'm SO curious (and maybe I missed if you already posted this) how did your Mika conversation end in Vancouver???

I can't wait to see videos!! And thank you so much for your review. Took me back to the Toronto show because you explained everything SO well...and now I'm wishing I could have gone to more than one show. Why didn't I get tickets to more than one and put RL on hold? Who knows when I'll see him in concert again? *siiigh* I miss it.

THANK YOU for the amazing report--loved it, loved how you described everything--loved the jeans! (Haha, you're right! MIKA=LOVE.) And isn't that kind of what every fan wants? To be set apart from the crowd for a second, for Mika to notice you, and say something to YOU. It may only last a second, but we can be thankful he has an insanely good memory. Now you'll forever be the fan with the "cool jeans."

A. Clay, thank you for the pics links! Ooh, I love little tidbits like that. And you're not dragging it out--I love detail!! Mana, LOVE THE VIDEO!!!

DaMango, I can't wait to see that vid!!! Whoa, do you have any other pictures from Leno? I didn't know Mika held the snake.

Exactly, Christine. The stereotypical idea of "perfect" isn't perfect to me at all. It isn't human. I don't want to look up to or date anyone who has the personality of a rock. That person may never swear or get angry or leave the toilet seat up, but they also wouldn't have emotion. Emotion is human, and it comes with a lot of good and bad. That's why I love seeing Mika just be human. I get a little freaked out when I see him perform because it is SO amazing, and the shows seem SO perfect, that when he drops his mic or forgets to zip his fly, a part of me thinks "Oh thank God," maybe I'm not so imperfect myself. (I am making NO sense.) I guess it's just a connection. We're all human, even the ones that seem perfect. Awww, Mana, it is amazing how Mika has evolved and grown into such a star. Th future is going to be pretty amazing, isn't it? And you don't sound braggy at all--we're all so blessed that you're here, sharing these wonderful reviews!! It's a bit funny that Mika's mom gets to be around him 24/7, she got to raise him and is there for him every single day. And us? We would do anything for just a few minutes. He didn't offer money back for my ticket in Toronto (or my mom's or sister's). But heck, it was all worth it. That is SO amazing, I can't even tell you. Makes my heart melt, makes me love him all the more. (Mana, you're turning me into even more of a sap than I normally am!) OK, that made me want to cry. There are no words... And I wish I could meet Mika's mom and tell her...what?..."Thank you for giving birth to him." Haha, I don't know, but I'm glad she has such a warm and caring spirit. Mika definitely has that, too. Oh wow, congrats!!!! I want to see this next concert DVD SOOO badly. Yes, THANK YOU for saying what we'd all like to say to him. I wish I could sit down with him for an hour and pour my heart out, but if I can't do that, I'm glad you could sum it up for me. Is there video of "the making of"?! You know guys, I read the news (and work retail, ugh) and sometimes--a lot of times--I get so dispirited with people and the crazy world we live in. Then I read these reports, and see how much Mika's changed our lives and brought us together and I have to say...Mika restores my faith in humanity. If there are people like this in the world, maybe we'll be OK after all.

Haha, true! But we'd love him no matter what he did.

Mana, I just want to hug you and thank you for SUCH an amazing report! I can't wait to read the rest! I totally agree--you need to be an official Mika reporter, so we can get backstage stuff like this every time. And I also love these details that show Mika is human, just like us. It's actually a comfort, because he's SO amazing, talented, kind, and charismatic that these moments where we see him being human make him...even MORE perfect to me. (If that makes sense.) He's incredible, and nothing will ever make me think differently. I also loved to hear how he hugged him mom and Yasmine before the show. Love. Him. So. Much. I'm glad to be one of the DH MFCers. It may be crazy, but I'm loving it.

Haha wellll...since there seems to be no ground-breaking news at the moment, I'm off since I have to get up e-a-r-l-y tomorrow for teaching training classes. (Yay, and on a Saturday...) I'll be checking in tomorrow morning because I'm SO curious what ended up happening tonight. *crosses fingers that everything is OK*

9:00pm, I believe.

Awww, he kissed Gray Skelly?? I definitely haven't seen that before. Sweet. And if people left early, they were certifiably insane. Why would you do that?! I'd gladly take their place if I could! Thank you for the reports!
