  1. Maybe And it looks like he's sitting on the sled while Nina is pushing him
  2. Just... AWWWWW :fangurl: It reminds me a bit of Mika's white Christmas vlog
  3. Maybe they liked you and that was the only way to spend more time with you Probably the same thing happened at Ritz with the crew members.. It's either that or you look like a serial killer
  4. I don't know you personally, but that's what I always thought of you anyway, you seem like a very positive person And it seems I'm in a minority this time, but I don't think you were annoying at all, others like to moan much more often and even about less important things Don't worry about it
  5. Something positive from the UK press http://mancunianmatters.co.uk/content/17127440-gig-review-mika-hmv-ritz-manchester-%E2%80%93-december-14 http://yorkshiretimes.co.uk/article/Mika--Putting-On-The-Ritz
  6. Oh no, not Eurovision, please.. I don't think there is a country where it's taken seriously (and I love Eurovision, but lets be real, everyone thinks/knows it's just a big joke) and Mika doesn't need even more mocking than he gets now Although, as ridiculous as it may sound, I would like to see him on the X factor USA (many thinks he will be dropped by his label in the near future, then he would be free to do this, so why not? ). It seems like the only way to get popular in the USA and I would actually be okay with that if people over there would finally discover and fall in love with Mika Of course I know this will never happen, but it's interesting to imagine how Mika would look like as a contestant on such a show and how the audience would react over him
  7. 9 letters and Christmas time.. What Mika song could possibly fit for this occasion? You still need another clue? Yup, it's the same level as last year, when the answer was Grace Kelly But I'm happy they're doing it at all. So thank you, Team Mika
  8. No more clues are needed, I think everyone knows the final answer already
  9. Good choice of a concert or the city? Any chance you're going too? Last time I was too shy to talk to anyone, I need a second chance, even if it's not a Mika gig
  10. I'm going to see him next year in Tallinn (if I'm lucky enough to get the tickets ) :yay:
  11. I can't spot any difference But knowing my lack of musical abilities it might be just me P.S Voted! Mika is wining with his 4 votes now
  12. Couldn't agree more with everything you just said And about the bolded part... it's really such an amazing feeling when that happens I only wish this could happen more often..
  13. There is a different version of Underwater? Where? I want to hear it!
  14. Yes, me too! The interviewer clearly hates Mika's music and I'm sure he had similar feelings for Mika himself before he met him. You can ignore Mika's charm and intelligence when you see him on TV, but it's impossible to do so once you have to meet him in real life. And suddenly from 'that annoying guy' he becomes 'aesthete, philosopher and repository of deep pop wisdom' Maybe the interviewer won't become a Mika fan, but at least now he will respect Mika as an artist (at least I want to believe so). And as much as I would like Mika to become more popular, what I want more is respect towards him. I hate it when people think he is some kind of a joke.
  15. Can we have this one as official video? [YOUTUBE]u5Yg-fMf0Q8[/YOUTUBE] Johnny Depp...
  16. I like it better after I watched it a few more times But Mika still looks awkward. And when he tries to control his boat, it looks like he's having chicken with it Don't tell me I'm the only one who thinks so
  17. Mika is right, he would be a really really really bad actor To me he looks just awkward (and not in a cute way) during the whole video (especially when the boat starts to swing) But I should give it another chance I guess... *goes to watch it again*
  18. I like this one. It's nice to read a positive review from someone who haven't even heard about Mika before http://mvremix.com/rock_blogs/2012/11/mika-origin-of-love-album-review/ It shows how out of step I am with the pop music world that I had never heard of Mika. Upon hearing the name I pictured an indie princess strumming her guitar through hipper-than-thou mopey songs, for some reason. Instead, I find myself confronted by a gay British boy with a Freddie Mercury fixation and a gaggle of unapologetic pop songs. Thank God! While apparently quite the sensation in Europe he never managed to break in America. I can sort of see why America would be less embracing. While comparisons to Mercury are obvious in listening to him sing, his voice is a lot thinner. He’s not going to belt out the showstoppers like a Lady Gaga. Mika manages to accommodate this in his songs. Sometimes through electronic trickery, like the chorus effect on opener “Origin of Love”, but mostly by sticking to relatively low key material that doesn’t demand a bigger personality than he can provide. This should not be viewed as any kind of insult to his songs. Everything on here is good to great and mostly the latter. Thankfully he doesn’t stick to electronics the whole time. The album opens with back to back songs based around simple piano plinks and the drums, while programmed, sound organic. I can actually see a real band playing these without endless backing tracks. In a world where dance electronica has taken over it’s nice to be reminded that someone can still write a fresh fun pop song without a bass drop. There’s still plenty of club numbers on here, like “Stardust” or “Overrated”, but he keeps them polite enough to fit in with the rest of the album. “Polite” is a good way to summarize the album, and I mean that as a compliment. There’s an innocence to this album that a lot of stuff doesn’t have these days. So much pop mires itself in an ugly, base sexuality that I find horribly off-putting. Even when singing about flings, like “Love You When I’m Drunk”, it’s still cute and harmless. It’s also perfect pop confection. If you don’t own this you’re wrong.
  19. Ah, I see well, it's mikasounds.. what else can we expect?
