  1. I'm 29...next year I start counting my age backward on each birthday :blush-anim-cl: I definitely don't look my age (I look younger which I hate right now) :pinkbow: I don't necessarily feel my age :mf_rosetinted: and I'm not so sure that I act my age either :roftl:

  2. Well I'm afraid I want Mika's name to be on everyone's lips. I want the whole world to know about him and love him, including the USA!

     

    Now you really do make me feel like a bad fan :emot-sad: Like I said I DO want him to be successful!! My other post really is referring to certain people I know that I don't really care to tell about my love for Mika because whether or not they were to like him too, I feel like they would "crash my Mika party". It's hard to explain but it has more to do with the particular people rather than fear of Mika becoming too popular :dunno: I actually do find it frustrating that Mika's music doesn't get played on the radio here (and quite hurtful to him, it makes me sad when I hear him talk about it) and the reasons that I've heard for why it's not really don't make any sense considering the stuff that does get played on American radio. And yes Mika deserves to be loved everywhere by everyone :wub2:

  3. T4P! :flowers2:

     

     

    That's how I feel sometimes. Mika was the 1st artist who I started listening to without ever hearing him on the radio and the 1st who no one I knew had heard of. Maybe that's why I'm so protective of him and don't want some people I know to start liking him. :naughty: Or...I am just a bad fan. :mf_rosetinted:

     

    I totally understand you there....I find that I don't want to mention to certain people how much I like Mika, not because I'm ashamed (I'm definitely not, I'm PROUD to be a Mika fan), but because I don't want them to suddenly love him too. I dunno, I guess I just want liking Mika to by "my thing" not theirs. Although it is difficult to keep my love for Mika a secret, cause I could really talk about him all day :teehee:

     

    And about feeling like a bad fan, I get what ya mean there too cause of course I want him to be successful which means more fans to share him with :doh:

  4. Ok..this could either go in this thread or the "you know you're obsessed" thread, but I'll put it here since it makes me feel healthier (or maybe I'm just in denial :teehee: )

     

    You know you're a Mika fan when you often wake up with a Mika song in your head :fisch: and sometimes it's even a live version of the song because you watch so many performance videos on Youtube :hypo:

  5. Welcome Jessica!! I've just started posting here too. I have listened to Mika's music since last year, but have just recently gone "Mika crazy" :swoon: My sister's family lives in North Carolina (I don't think she knows who Mika is :doh: ). I had been visiting NC once or twice a year, but now it's been over 2 years since my last visit :sad: I must say I like North Carolina winters much better than Michigan winters :roftl: Anyway....nice to have you join us here :original:

  6. I think I should make this thread my home :roftl: I really want to see Mika!! I like reading people's concert reports and watching performance videos on Youtube (I really don't know how I'd survive without Youtube :teehee: ), but I do get very jealous and sad sometimes (and yes, frustrated is a good word to describe it). I actually think this is the reason why I have partially lost interest in some of my past favorite artists/musicians. It's like I can only take so much of living through other people, after awhile I just want to experience it myself :mad3: I haven't been to a concert in over 4 years, mostly because I don't have the money these days, but also the artists/musicians I like never come close enough to me and I don't have people to travel with. I actually have tickets to see somebody next month (finally somebody is coming to a place that isn't too far from where I live and tickets are only $10) but right now I'm not that excited about it because it's not Mika :insane: Anybody else ever feel that way :doh:

  7. Being new here, I'm feeling all shy about posting :blush-anim-cl: but I've gotta start somewhere so I guess I'll start here (though I did already post an introduction) :original:

     

    Not many people know about my Mika "obsession":

     

    My mom knew that I was looking forward to the release of his new CD. When she would ask me who it was I would just say "a person". I figure she wouldn't remember his name anyway (like when I mention my favorite athletes I refer to them as "my guys" :winksmiley02: ). One time when she heard me listening to LICM she asked me what kind of music it was...I told her it was "pop"...Lollipop was the song playing at the time and she said something like "I like this", that got a big :thumb_yello: from me :lol3: I don't know if my mom realizes that it's always Mika's music that I'm listening to, but she always catches me singing along. I'm usually shy about that too, but now I've gotten over it and when she walks in the room I keep on singing :biggrin2: I swear she always walks in when I'm singing along with One Foot Boy, and that's a song that you can't stop in the middle of, ya gotta keep singing :roftl:

     

    My sister may have seen where I have mentioned Mika, but unless she got curious and looked him up she probably doesn't know who he is and she hasn't asked me about him. The next time she visits she will most likely get introduced to his music because I'm sure I'll be playing it when she is around :teehee:

     

    I remember talking about Mika on another message board last year when I bought the LICM CD and I think even before that when I first heard Grace Kelly, but I haven't mentioned him on there recently. I know that one of the people that I talk to there likes at least some of Mika's music.

  8. YES! MORE MICHIGAN MFCERS! WE MUST BAND TOGETHER TO GET MIKA TO COME TO MICHIGAN!

     

    Sorry for that i'm obviously from the mitten as well hahaha welcome to the MFC! :biggrin2:

     

    No need to apologize...it's cool to meet other Mika fans from Michigan :thumb_yello: It would be great if he came to our state...now we must think of a good way to get him here :teehee:

  9. I thought I'd make my first post an introduction post...so hello from America! My name is Becky, I'm from Michigan. I guess I'll first tell you my "Mika history". I'm not exactly a new fan. I first remember noticing Mika's name mentioned on other message boards probably in 2007 :dunno: I think it was around the end of 2007 when I finally heard Grace Kelly...if I remember right I heard it on a Sirius Satellite Radio station which at that time I listened to through satellite TV (which I no longer have :crybaby: ). I really liked the song, but after awhile I didn't hear it anymore. Then I think it was around late spring/early summer of last year when an internet friend of mine sent me a CD with some of her favorite songs on it and she included Happy Ending. I really liked that song as well. I think it was also around that same time that I started seeing the video for Grace Kelly as part of Gavin DeGraw's Hit List on MTV Hits (a Hit List is where an artist hosts an hour of their favorite videos). I was a big Gavin DeGraw fan at the time, so I watched it whenever I found it on and every time I looked forward to seeing the Grace Kelly video. Finally, July of last year I bought the LICM CD :clap: I listened to it a lot, but after awhile it got put in with the rest of my CDs and I didn't listen to it all that often anymore (I always seem to do that, my aim is to get rid of the clutter, but then I end up not listening to CDs very often...I feel very ashamed, at least this time :emot-sad: ). So, how did I finally end up here?? Well, at the beginning of September I noticed where somebody on twitter mentioned that Mika had a new song/video (We Are Golden). I had not known that he had a new CD being released. Since I was already a fan of his music, I made a mental note to check it out on Youtube. Later that night while suffering from boredom I remembered about the video. The first time I watched it I wasn't sure what I thought about it. After the second time I was hooked :wub2: I ended up spending around 4 hours that night watching Mika videos/performances on Youtube, reading stuff here and browsing through all of his twitter updates :teehee: Also one of the first things I did was get out my copy of LICM. Then for the next 2 and a half weeks all I talked about was how I couldn't wait for the release of TBWKTM :aah: and I got the deluxe version the day it came out. Since then I've gone totally Mika crazy :wub2: and figured it was time for me to join the rest of you here :wink2:

     

    I'm not sure what else to say about me. I've always been a huge fan of music. I'm also a big sports fan. I watch many sports although I don't play any. I often get a little too emotionally involved in my favorite sports teams/athletes, but like music I don't know what I'd do without them :original: I also love to read...I actually get upset when I don't save myself some time each day to read :teehee: Hmmm...I guess that's enough about me...this got kind of long Oops :exclamation:
