i always hear "chicket" like he caught himself singing the wrong thing i watched it again twice just to be sure... yeah that was the only reason

yeah, good thing too! but when i'm not watching the video... it just makes me think shameful things & nobody wants that, right? this song's just too beautiful for that type of naughtiness!

that's what my weird brain heard

Under Water by Mika

the more i listen to this song, the more i'm convincing myself that He's sing "when I fall to your feet" the unintelligble line could be "You're shot and leavin' me raw" which would make a wee bit more sense than "Your shot and leavin' me raw" :shrug: "Put your lips on me" ...He doesn't where to put them maybe He could change it to "Put your lips on mine" i'm still crushing on this song so hard i can't wait to hear the studio version!

here’s some of my random thoughts about Under Water & the things some people said about it. i hope they make sense! -i love this song so much! i love EMD and Karen but that took time; with this song it was one listen and BAM INSTANT INFATUATION! -the lines “port of my call” and “fall to my feet” didn’t make sense to me at first but after pondering then reading further into this thread, i agree they do make sense: a port of call is defined as “any port where a ship stops, excluding its home port” OR “any place visited on a traveller's itinerary”, so i think He’s just saying the ‘you’ the song is addressed to is where he wants to land so to speak. you can fall to your feet if you’re falling from some where above. -it seems as though the song lyrics (what i can make out anyway, lol) could’ve been written by Lady Jane’s lover (before that whole nasty ‘drowning down below’ business of course) this makes me think there is a story to song & perhaps it’s not as simple as it seems. -the “under waaaaaaaaaater” part is what really hooked me in, it picks up & gets so emotional. i don’t find it that repetitive; i’d definitely feel differently if He sang ‘underwater’ many times in row in the exact same way or in very quick succession (“start again start again start again” etc at the end of English Summer Rain by Placebo… i’m looking at you) the way he sings it i think is a good thing because it gets stuck in your head. it was great to hear the crowd singing along so quickly! -i haven’t even liked, let alone loved, this blatant of a love song since… geez maybe when i was in my New Kids On The Block and Boyz2Men phase about 20 years ago, unless i’m forgetting one which means i must not have liked it that much all the songs even remotely about love i liked are a bit dark & twisted and my 2nd most favorite band swore they’d never even write a song & have pretty much stuck to it which i love them for since i just can’t relate to mushy blatant love songs… hmm, that’s quite depressing. GAAAAAAAAH! what is it about this song that makes me so -it reminds of Placebo’s Breathe Underwater, but that’s probably just because of the title. -i reckon this is by far my longest post ever on MFC, proof how much i love this song perhaps okay i think that’s enough of my giddy ramblings for now.

this song's been growing on me lately anyway (the lyrics are a bit weird though & why can't He just call it Blame The Weather or something, unless it's somehow akin to BiotG and i just don't get it), but i like this new version much more. i wonder what He'll do with it? i'm thinking... b-side

it was stuck in my head after just one listen i can't wait to hear the proper version! ...i think i better go listen to it again for the 100th time, just to be sure it's real lol

does anyone have the video of the clip of Mika in the dollars shirt at 0:38 i don't recall seeing it anywhere before. what is he doing? thanks in advance for your help!

they replayed this episode last night! i figured they'd be replaying the season finale before the new season. i totally screamed when the song came on & turned up the telly to full blast. this was my first time hearing a Mika song on a TV show since i've became a fan; it was even more awesome than i thought it'd be.

those shoes are amazing! Louboutin outdid himself this time

*sings to the tune of Good Gone Girl* "his name is Mika and he is gorgeous" hmm, doesn't have the same ring to it still true though

...or almost get hit by a car

wow! i can't even paint a straight line, let alone all that detail!

it's not really "lyrics" but in SITM i still hear things, even though i know better, things like "CHICK-EN" and "zap an apple pie" or sometimes it's "top an apple pie"

i've been painting my fingernails a different Mika-themed scheme each week. i call this one "Gotta be green, Gotta be mean" it's black (mean) & emerald (green) w/ silver spots on the thumbs (no real reason:teehee:) but the pic makes the black look brownish there's actually a *hem hem* certain gesture *hem hem* that goes with this one but it's a bit rude i just gotta say, Holy Johnny it was hard to take a picture of both my own hands and get both the thumbs & fingers too!

brilliant! i love it & totally agree.

so i only just became aware of the LT demo. how the heck did i miss this?!?!?! the GK demo makes me giggle, especially the meow at the end. @Piperita Patty: he does it on lots of live versions, here's the 1st one i thought of-

YKYAMFW the moment the door closes behind you in a bathroom stall, an empty elevator, a stairwell, etc you start to dance and/or sing along with the Mika songs in your head.

Love Today by Mika

YKYAMFW you have dreams (more like nightmares!) about this happening, even though there's no chance you'll ever just bump into Mika

ooh thanks! i would never have found those, hidden in that thread like that lol

The Origin Of Love makes me think of Hedwig & the Angry Inch i hope Mika changes the album title.

MARCH?!?! holy johnny i hope they're overestimating! i've only been a fan since early July so i've only been waiting a little over 2 months for new stuff & i'm already dying of anticipation!

i dreamt i was in Turkey or something at the soundcheck for a Mika gig on top of this tall building or something. there was only about 5 other fans watching and Mika was within arms reach (i could've run my fingers through his hair ) at one point he stopped singing and told us all to look over at the beautiful hills in the distance. this dream was going so well till my cat woke me up not exactly about Mika, but another night i had a dream in which i bought about 10 lollipops at school & was taking Portuguese class. i was so excited about the class because i'd be able to post in Portuguese thread here on the MFC forum
