I have also listened to some of his songs and I like 21 Grammi a lot. -
Beautiful Disaster - Lyrics & Discussion
Menthe replied to DerMoment1608's topic in Mika's Music and Artwork
Well, at least Italians seem to like it: it's still #1 on iTunes . I think it's not so common for a track that hasn't been released as a single and there isn't even any radio play or a video yet. -
2015 - Le Phare Toulouse FRANCE 11 October - REPORTS/PICS/VIDS
Menthe replied to Kumazzz's topic in Concert Reviews
Il like the 1st version also; especially at 2.45 when he sings "hurts" with a really beatiful vibrato and I have dreamed hearing that moment live. I hope he will sing it also at the piano one day.- 37 replies

2015 - Le Phare Toulouse FRANCE 11 October - REPORTS/PICS/VIDS
Menthe replied to Kumazzz's topic in Concert Reviews
I like this version too, it reminds me of Years & Years sound, especially the beginning. I think that this version of Hurts or Beautiful disaster (Mika's version, even if I haven't heard it yet ) could do very well if well promoted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=se1xJ9Tc3aA- 37 replies

Thank you for the tip: I just bought it also. -
Beautiful Disaster - Lyrics & Discussion
Menthe replied to DerMoment1608's topic in Mika's Music and Artwork
I could listen to it this night on Spotify, but this morning it isn't available any more. I can't buy it on French iTunes either because I should buy Fedez's album to get it . You can only buy it as a single on iTunes Italy. I must say that I like it a lot even if I am not used to listen to rap, but Fedez has a nice voice and italian is such a beautiful language. Mika's parts are so melodic and his voice . I wonder if Mika has composed those parts? -
No Place in Heaven - Lyrics & Discussion
Menthe replied to dcdeb's topic in Mika's Music and Artwork
There will be a new edition format of NPIH in France and Italy (at least). Out in France November 6 and in Italy November 13. It will be sold with the live CD of the Montréal symphonic gigs. I am not quite sure if I am please with this kind of promotion. I would have preferred the symphonic CD alone. -
No he didn't . I am afraid that his public is a little bit older now and they aren't voting like crazy in this kind of competitions. I hope he will be there however.

No Place In Heaven: Chart thread for album and singles
Menthe replied to Marilyn Mastin's topic in Chat about Mika
NPIH is #37 on iTunes Norway. I wonder why now because it has never been in the top 100 there. -
I saw your comment on twitter and was afraid that the gig was a complet disaster for you. Happy to know that you could enjoy some parts of it however. I think that the gig schedule is quite hard for Mika's voice. He must preserve it to be able to go on touring: he has 23 dates in one month! In other hand, I think his voice is sometimes even better than before: it's more espressive as he has to replace some higher notes by lower ones. Especially in this recording of Ordinary man you can here how powerful and beautiful his voice can be and there aren't any really high notes in it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzd1OfVsb7c.

It was in this one: http://www.estrepublicain.fr/edition-de-nancy-ville/2015/09/11/nancy-mika-en-concert-au-zenith-le-9-octobre "Là , en septembre, on la démarre officiellement en Europe avec le nouveau show. Ça veut dire que l’on repartira en Asie, aux Etats-Unis, avant de faire l’Amérique du Sud. C’est devenu beaucoup plus qu’une tournée européenne !"

In yesterday's article in L'Est RĂ©publicain (already in News and Press thread) Mika says he is also going to tour in Asia, USA and in SOUTH AMERICA!

No Place In Heaven: Chart thread for album and singles
Menthe replied to Marilyn Mastin's topic in Chat about Mika
You can find here (scroll down) http://www.chartsinfrance.net/communaute/index.php?/topic/52802-talk-about-mikas-sales/ NPIH's chartsrun in different countries: it is still in the top 40 in Italy (in the top 20 since the beginning), in France and in Switzerland. They have separated charts in Romandie (Frech-speaking area Switzerland) and in Wallonie (French-speaking area in Belgium) and NPIH is doing very well in both areas (especially in Romandie). It seems that NPIH maintains it's position especially in Italy, but in terms of sales, France is more important (French people buy more music than Italians, Spanish etc.). That makes about 55 000 for France and 18 000 for Italy and about 150 000 in the world. -
J'ai pas envie - Song and lyrics discussion
Menthe replied to Chloe940's topic in Mika's Music and Artwork
A very good decision indeed. I think he should also launch it in other French speaking countries. For exemple, in France they have quotas for 40% of Frech speking songs on the radio and they seem to play the same ones all the time. -
Staring At The Sun - Song/Lyrics Discussion
Menthe replied to BiaIchihara's topic in Mika's Music and Artwork
Well, I must say that this time I am very happy to live in France and be able to download the song. I like a lot this french-english version. There is also a different sound in those french parts, a kind of clearer sound. -
Than you for the tranlation and this time we learned something new. The story about that Indian women was funny.

No Place In Heaven: Chart thread for album and singles
Menthe replied to Marilyn Mastin's topic in Chat about Mika
NHIP is still doing very well in Canada: it is #9 this week (4 positions up)! http://www.billboard.com/charts/canadian-albums Do you Canadians know how to get total sales? In France a little drop: now #12 with 42 000 albums sold all together in 4 weeks. It is also doing quite well in Switzerland #10 and in Italy #15. I only hope NPIH could stay in the global charts top 40, otherwise I don't know how to get global sales. -

Menthe replied to Marilyn Mastin's topic in Chat about Mika
It isn't that bad though, I don't compare the sales of NPIH to the sales of LICM or not even to those of TBWKTM, but I am only hoping it will do better than TOOL and it seems to be the case . I think that he would be happy with 200000 albums sold by the end of this year. -
Thank you so much for the reports and videos, especially for the NPIH one. It is so beautiful live .

50 000 copies were sold the first week, so that makes 81 000 all together.
