  1. I am happy to send my 'mikalove' to Lena right away, but I need to add that we also had the iron curtain running on the Western borders of Hungary and other Russian fans in their thirties are likely to have experienced the same. It's just that we are different as people with different levels of tolerance to accept differing views.

    My exposure to gay culture was zero until my late teenage years: I never knew or heard of anyone who would be gay. All I heard (from someone in my family as it was never discussed anywhere publicly) that homosexuals were sick and dangerous to children. :blink:So I imagined them as middle-aged pervs I should be afraid of, except that this family member was also good at spotting 'gay men' on TV, like the singer of Modern Talking, who was wearing an eye-liner...:roftl: Needless to say, I started to question such easily identifiable traits, so I concluded that I shouldn't believe that as it is just part of old people's fear of anything new or different coming from the Western world (now I'd call it Communist propaganda)

    Next I remember hearing is that Freddie Mercury died of AIDS and that he was gay. So I thought I should quickly forget about anything I have heard so far as such a great musician can't have been all sick and evil. And that is the reason why role models do play an important part in influencing public opinion / 'educating' people. There is also one other thing I remember that helped me totally understand that gay people love the same way as any straight person does: the film Philadelphia. I remember crying at the end of it.

    I think people in most part of the world are exposed to similar news and events at any particular time period and it is up to us how we contruct our own reality.

     

    I've never met an openly homosexual person. :aah:

  2. Just a little introduction' date=' since summer just kicked off and I'll probably be on here a lot :wink2:

    I'm 14 years old, and believe it or not I've been a fan of Mika's since the beginning. I've always been quite a bit different, Mature for my age perhaps, and I'd like to think I appreciated his musicality back then :teehee: Living on the East coast of the US, Mika isn't played much on the radio, but I heard Grace Kelly again last year by chance and am now HOOKED. Completely. So, for me, imagine a curly-haired strawberry blonde with blue eyes, bookwurm (ya know, the introvert type). That is me, pre mika. For post mika me, imagine that girl plus the most hyper sense of humor ever, and dancing horribly w/headphones in public places... All the time. And If you haven't noticed, I also talk a lot. :blush-anim-cl: So, ummm... Yeah! *cheesy smile*[/quote']

  4. :sneaky2: Of course you're wrong,this is a song for his fourth album! :mf_rosetinted:

     

    :lmfao:

     

    I sort of understand. If a song comes to him that he really loves, he'll write it and maybe it'll end up on the album. I remember when he talked about how he wrote Big Girl. He said (if senile memory serves me correctly) that he was going to LA the next day and I think he was going to record songs for LICM, but couldn't sleep.

    He got up and watched a doc about Big Girls going to The Butterfly Lounge, where they were celebrated, not rejected, and where men, who are into big girls, could go and meet them.

    He said he wrote the song there and then, and it ended up on LICM.

    So my point is that, I think, the only time his albums are finished, is when they are stamped onto the cd, and even then, he could change the name or something. I think that's why we tend to have to wait so long for each record, but when we get it, it will be worth the wait.

    Or he could do something entirely different with the new song.

    That's my 2 cents anyway.

     

    That's sounds true :thumb_yello:
