oh dear.... I really don't mean to sound negative but to me this is definitely not a good news.

I've watched the voice and I really didn't like the whole atmopshere of the show, and I really really can't picture Mika in this show.

only my 2 cts, but saying I am not disappointed would be lying. and as you all pointed it out, what about the fourth album...

I may sound ... selfish or judgemental, but I hope it's only a rumour and will prove not to be true.

Anyway... Mika will handle his career the way he wants, I only hope he won't get lost in things that are far away from his music.

Don't think so because it is the unpublished version( love it soo much)

Me too !! I absolutely adore this overrated version... awww I am not gifted enough to find the notes by ear though

thank you for your answer... maybe a gifted MFCer piano player could transpose it down on an note sheet by ear ??? **** I'm begging ***

The first dvd I offered to Mika is "Mister Nobody" (it's my favorite movie ) and the second is "Cloud atlas" ( he tweeted about this film some months ago )

thank you so much for your answer !! .. never heard about these movies but I think I am going to watch them asap !!

Hey

would any of you know where I can find the piano music sheet for this version ?

I think I forgot to say thank you for this video and report.

And I still don't know which DVD he received! I'd like to know cause he said the first one was great

I'd like to know about those Dvds too !!!

Thank again everyone for sharing

Even the dog (yes it looks like Mel) seems to be smiling on the last pic !!

Ok, I´m writing my report in the lunchbreak now. I´m still not back in real life so why not to write a report?

 

Awww thank you so much Hasi for your report !!! Yeah the "gleiche Scheisse wie in Colmar" thing is quite funny !! Plus you must have been standing close to the camera as your voice is really loud and clear

 

And yeah, I also think Mika noticed what you said, he looked quite amused btw.

 

Anyway, the whole thing gig + M and G seems to have been a blast and I am so happy for all of you who got the chance to be there, and so thankful you are now sharing.

 

I think the supporting act was french group sexion d'assaut... oh well how can I put it ? they make a kind of agressive hip hop for angry teenagers imo. Never heard of them being openly homophobic though but true they pretend they are playing rough, own Paris and make fun of the police in the few songs I've heard on the radio... must have been weird to hear them just before Mika , they are so negative while he is exactly the opposite.

 

I've got 2 tiny questions : I did not get in the vids, what the 3 boxes the Corean fan offered hil were ? In one of them, there are like 4 bottles I think and they both say it is related to a gig in Spain ??

 

And do you know what are the 2 dvds he got ??

 

Ok... I admit it.. I want to know everything

 

BYe for now MFCers

Just arrived back home and I´m damn tired after only 1 1/2 hours of sleep Not sure if I´m going to write a report or not...first I need sleep

 

But I already uploaded two videos I made yesterady: Both Origin Of Love - one before the surprise by the audience (

) and the other one is during the surprise (

). Sorry for shaking...but priority was living the moment

 

Still HIGH from his reaction, the aftershow party and (too much) of champagne yesterday! And the baaaand Ahhhh, how I´m going to survive this year?! Thanks everyone for the lovely company yesterday!

Thank you for filming, posting, and all the arranging that went into so many celebrations for Mika's 30th, it was so wonderful to see his reactions!!!

Thank you so much for these vids. I can't stop watching them. I am really thrilled for all the MFCers who could be there last night. Although all meet and greet sessions seem so great, I have the feeling that this one was very special and Mika looks so happy and relaxed, some of you even got kissed !!!!

I am so glad you could go to this gig, meet him and share with us !! thank you all !!

And so happy Mika thinks of us as the most elegant fans !

No pressure at all

OK .... PRESSURE from me !!!!

INTERVIEW : Soundcloud

 

Foire aux vins de Colmar : écoutez l'interview de Mika réalisée quelques minutes avant son concert

 

https://soundcloud.com/user3466227/foire-aux-vins-de-colmar

 

Mika a fait coquille quasi complète hier soir à la Foire aux vins de Colmar. Il était précédé par Assaf Avidan. Mika qui a fait à Colmar son dernier concert en France de l’année. Il a rencontré les journalistes quelques minutes avant de monter sur scène. Ecoutez son interview (Mika était au micro d’Emmanuel Didierjean).

 

 

Could anyone translate please ?

I made a translation, sorry my english is not so good. It is also a bit weird as you don't have the questions in the soundcloud recording (except for the one about inspiration), only Mika's answers.. Anyway, here is my translation

It is one of my favorite festivals in France. Also it’s… In the U.S., it is called a shed, a baseball shed. It is like a kind of amphitheater, in the summer, it feels great for an artist to have such a contact with the public all around, almost at 360°, well 180… Hmmm. Yes it’s great, it’s like a circus.

I am a bit confused by the accent, this is the only thing, to me it sounds like the accent from Quebec. Everybody gets upset when I say that and I don’t know why because both accents are beautiful. No they are very warmhearted and fabulous as an audience, they completely take part in the show, they sing, they dance. I already write in French, I already have 3 songs in French for the new album, in addition to the other songs that I have already written for the album in English and well I have fun when I sing in French. It is like being two persons at the same time, it allows a lot of musical possibilities. Being able to sing in French is really a great pleasure.

This time, the album is different. It sounds very pop but also very original (he says “organique” in French.. not quite sure what he means sorry) as the 70s or 60s pop albums.

And I am truly excited about that because in my opinion, when you think about “organique” music, most people immediately think about folk and stuff like that but I think that doing a very very pop album but which would not be overproduced is very exciting, I like it. It is something new because the last album I made was very much produced, and well now of course I am doing the opposite. I think that there are so many melodies in the songs, this is how I work, I put one melody on top of another. I can also do it on stage, it is not only dance music to which you only have to press play, no, we are musicians, we play everything, we sing everything and yes.. it does work pretty well on stage.

You said you had difficulties finding the inspiration for your last album. What about your next album ? Was it easier to find the inspiration ?

I found inspiration quite easily. I don’t know why but I am not the one who has to find the reason why. I don’t ask myself too many questions, when I feel like I can do it, I put great efforts into it otherwise it would be foolish and I would be wasting my time.

If I have changed? Well, I changed my Shampoo. Aside from this, no. You don’t change, you become… well I know I am very lucky to be doing what I do in my life. I have a huge freedom. I’ll turn 30 in 6 days, I was eleven when I got my first job in classical music, on the London Royal Opera stage in London and now, next week I’ll be 30, I have been on tour or recording for almost 9 years, I know that… I think to myself… I pinch myself… I think waouh, merde… I feel privileged. I think you have to evolve, not necessarily to change. You may change but when people ask me wether I’ve changed, I always feel like they are looking for something negative.

I like the program tonight, I appreciate the artist who will play, Asaf Avidan, and of course I know some of his songs very well but I like the fact that an Israelite and a Lebanese share a stage tonight, in Colmar, thank you for that privilege, it’s cool.

Yesterday, Sziget in Budapest, tonight Colmar and two days ago, I was at the Faroe Islands, so 3 shows. In the Faroe Islands, 35 % of the population came to the show.

I am delighted to be here for the third time, thank you very much, I have to get prepared.

. . . OR,

on the other hand,

maybe he's just trying to

let us down easy:

Eeek...

Oh, please, I hope he'll never go that far

Thank you so much for your report !!! Seems like it was a very intimate gig indeed, must have been so great !!

and you even met Melachi, that's awesome !!!!

Thank you all for your pic, videos and the report! It's so good that you all wanted to share your evening with us.

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, it is (sorry for the big size...)

 

Hey

I would like to thank tiibet and suzie for their reports... can't wait to hear more, if possible, and to see more, if possible of course !!!

Awww MEEEEEKs !!! he is just too cute imo

I have nothing against the ear ring !

I'm not sure if I will write a proper report later or not, I need to think about it. But I guess this is not a secret anymore, and some winners will talk about it, some not. Everyone can make their own decisions.

 

It was a lovely intimate gig for 6 winners and their guests. The venue was small and very cozy, loved it, everything was perfectly organized. Mika did an acoustic set, it's something I have always wanted to see. So yes, it was amazingly beautiful

 

Everyone who knows me can guess how happy I was to see Melachi, I admit it was a highlight I have a pic, promised to show it:

 

 

And yes, Mika did one of his old demo songs. Many people filmed, I filmed everything too.

Hey Tiibet !!

thank you so much for sharing ! Aww I am so happy to see Melachi, all grown up and she seems to be such an adorable dog !!!

Ok, now I completey about Mika's dog !

Can't wait to here more about this gig !
