  1. +1. When I think about the verses I can see him performing this as a more acoustic version live, with him playing the piano. I'm not sure what would happen with the chorus if this was the case ( :teehee: ) but I'm eager to see what he does with the song once he starts performing it.

     

     

     

    :roftl:

     

     

     

    Agreed. As someone already said, the teenage Mika is cute and all but it's about time he grew up. :naughty: I, too, loved the song from the first listening and it almost had me thinking why he hadn't done this earlier. I guess this was the right time for him to move on and mature a bit with his music and I'm glad he did.

     

    I love LICM and TBWKTM to bits but I really want to hear something new and different from him. What he's done so far - the falsetto, happy melodies with dark lyrics, lots of piano - is great and shows what a smart songwriter he is but taking a new direction will prove he's not a one trick pony, as a lot of people might see him. This doesn't mean he's going to take these elements out of his music - the way I see it is that he's just come up with new elements he wants to add to his music. "Oh he's that Grace Kelly guy with a high-pitched voice" is getting really old and I'm pretty sure he wants to be lot more than a one hit wonder. Even if his fans know his songs are great and appreciate them the truth is that a lot of people know him only because of GK (or Relax).

     

    Agreed :thumb_yello: actually, alot of my favorite artists today have changed their style a little to gain success *cough* Coldplay *cough* As they make Indie/Rock music, they went a little electronic, still very rock but unusual style. They got a little of a new audience, kept the old one, and had a huge success with the new album and the collaboration. Doing this will defenitly proove how Mika can be a great artist as he changes a little, but he stays a successfull artist. If he keeps the same old kind of music, nothing will go forward.

  2. Oh, yes, I know, I just meant that as a rhetorical question :blush-anim-cl: Like: omg he drew so many cards!

     

    HAHAHA! 6 or 7 cards out in that game! Well yes, this ref was pretty annoying... He got out one of my favs in Greece (very complicated name) Papastopoulos? Something like that :aah: (the goalie)

  3. I know! First half was a bit... meh, but the second half, wow! I was :shocked: when the goalkeeper got red! I didn't mind though, I was cheering for greece too :naughty: but what was up with that ref??? How many cards can you draw during one game??

     

    Usually, there's no real limit, but it's 2 cards per player. Yellow=warning and Red=you're out of the game. A ref is a ref, he decides with the direction if the game (meh, sometimes they take advantage of it :sneaky2:)

  4. Great day today! Holland, Portugal and Germany in one day!

     

    I like both :portugal: and :germany:... Tough choice!

     

    PORTUGAL! That's my team! :portugal::excite: watched the one with Greece and Poland, cheered for Greece, it was an intense game!

  5. I just showed Mika to on of my dads friends. :naughty: That was awesome.

     

     

     

    Is there any shows coming up in Montreal? I thought I saw one, but maybe I dreamed it. :mf_rosetinted:

     

    Yep, festival des mongolfieres? You live in Montreal? My tickets arrived yesterday with all the happy Mika day it really fitted with the mood and stuff :aah:

  6. Fabulous song, even if it's REALLY different from everything he's ever done. I especially love his voice on the "cry on you" bit and that moment when the guy licks the girl on the video. So sweet! :wub2:

     

    Could someone please update the first post with the latest lyrics version people could write down? Thanks a lot in advance!

     

    I love this part, but my part is totally "If I said I'm upbeat, I'd be lying" at the beginning, love it.

  7. Is this for real? It sounds like-Mika robot...

    No no no, Mika :sad:

     

    I really really hope it will grow on me after few listenings...

     

    Exact same feeling.

     

    I'm not sure what to think about this song. I think I like it, but it's so not Mika, I wasn't ready for a change like that :tears:

     

    Neither was I...

     

    Honestly, at first sight, I was shocked. It was bizarre, and electronics like that, too much for me. But Mika's voice in it sounds good. That robot in the chorus must go though. Totally not my type of thing, but I love the happy vibe in it, and I hope the album will have the same vibe, but not all the same sound. Though the song will probably grow on me, and I will probably start to like it because... that's my type.

  8. i love that song! think i'll go watch them when they are in Denmark the 27 sep: :teehee:

     

    Go for it! They are great live! I want to, but it's a festival, too expensive :/
