Cherisse

I totally associate that aria with his "Doctor John" stage presence, I thought I was the only one. Would definitely love seeing Ida and Meeks doing this together:

Diana si Alle here. well, noi suntem aici in the middle of the people @ Alba Iulia si am vrea sa facem the so-called video pentru ziua lui Mika. stim ca nu prea am mai discutat de chestia asta dar cred ca noi cel putin o sa il facem, anyway. nu promitem nimic. voiam doar sa va anuntam ca noi n-am renuntat la idee. mai este ceva timp pana in 18, asa ca daca vreti puteti sa va alaturati

OMG, that was it. Doamne cum sa uiti asa ceva

No idea but I would love seeing her perform some opera live, just to see her doing what she does the best, because we all know pop is not her main genre and she's probably doing this for Mika only.

Definitely. I totally agree that some things he does may not be to everyone's satisfaction, but that's it, you've nothing to do. And why would you do anything? Why would we complain about anything he does, not musically-related? I don't think we're right in doing that, just because I'm sure we wouldn't like having people watching over us all the time and quickly criticize everything that is not to their satisfaction. We are either OK with what he does and simply take minor things that we don't like as things we shouldn't be concerned about, or have a break and come back when we are OK with it I just don't get it when people make a whole lot of fuss about things that are not even up to them, like Mika's private life. OK, done. I am gloriously off-topic now, I know. Absolutely. And after all, why would we? This is the guy that we fell for (musically and creatively speaking, of course ) so we should continue to take him the way he is.

Quite of an interesting point of view you showcased in this foregoing statement. I am happy to see that the song is growing on people who didn't really fell for the song when they first listened to it or jazz, but they're getting more and more fond of it. However though, I don't really know if I could possibly compare BIOTW with Lady Jane. In my opinion, Lady Jane is a complete masterpiece, both musically and conceptually. Those mellow and andante kind of chords are just the perfect way to go around with it, and together with those conceptual lyrics the song is simply taken to a whole new level. I can't really explain the reason why I find Lady Jane so brilliant, but it's just something completely different from everything I've ever come across. Getting back to BIOTW though, the music is sweet, gentle but UNLIKE Lady Jane, it seems like it's made to be taken upside down and inside out, to quote Suzie . And that's why I cannot possibly compare it with Lady Jane. I find that song perfect, and you cannot possibly re-write what's perfect. This is probably one of the first stages BIOTW has been through and maybe once "The Origin of Love" comes out, we will be surprised to find it as a whole new mixture of Mika-ish sounds. I really don't know why I like it so much, as it's not anything special neither about the music nor about the lyrics. But again, maybe his stage presence along with Ida's simply make me love it subconsciously

I remember that!

Oh yes, what a video! Si culmea ca si de la Beefest tot Happy Ending a fost cel mai cel.. I mean, anul asta chiar a fost cel mai cel God, it's an year already...

oh yes.

:bow: JUST LOOK AT THEM. Diana, Daria si Ruxi sunt cu siguranta de acord cu mine .

Amazing quality as always, thank you! PS, the BIOTW video is simply killing me. I can't take my eyes off them

No idea, but if you ask me, I would personally love to see them together.

You're right.

Well said, Daria! It wasn't necessarily the fact that he was talking about such tragedies (I mean.. it was actually) but the fact that those people came to his concert and while he was trying to spread a message or whatever, they kept screaming and acting like hell. And it's even more impish that he was talking about such a sensitive thing. However.

Yes, I agree. Unfortunately this was kind of bound to happen sometime soon and everyone knew it.

Those "I love you"s at the beginning are freaking pissing me off. He's talking about some serious stuff over there and you can barely hear him. People should pay some more respect.

Yeah, 27 seems like a hell of a number for many guys. Good enough Meeks is done with that number in less than a month But seriously, in spite of the fact that an overdose wasn't that unexpected for Amy to happen, it strikes you when something happens like this and someone dies unnaturally young, doesn't matter why. And it's sad. Poor unhappy creature, as Stephen Fry said.

You guys are just amazing. It's always a pleasure to come across this thread and wander through the pages. I wish I had a bit of a talent with the pencil as well

Cell phone ringing tone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgFx_Nig4SY Text message ringing tone: random Nokia ringing tone.. don't really pay much attention to text message ringing tones, but I was thinking of using the little "I wanna talk to you" from the beginning of GK as one

Perhaps he was too kind to talk to the public in their own language, no matter what country he went to, during last year's tour. He kind of spoils us with all these things he does for his public. And yes, I don't necessarily want him to sing in my own language (actually, not at all ), but what I mean was that I'm sure he would've done French songs from the moment he came out if he had known that those were going to launch him in the music industry. That's what I think, anyway.

Yes, me too! I'm really happy he has finally decided to come up with singles in French as well, because I'm sure he wanted to do this since he first came out, but being a British singer at an English-speaking (mostly) record company is not exactly the path to an exclusive French-songs-career, I'd say But he's so good at it and I'm glad he'll finally include some on the album

Karen all the way, it's genius.

This made my day. Period. :mf_rosetinted: :roftl::roftl:
