I wanted to write something on this song, but you already perfectly made it. It's really a song who gives mixed feelings. That's really a "dancing with tears in the eyes" vibe. I really love this song.

Absolute happiness Seriously, I will explode from excitement, at one week from the concert, that's too much

I was ready to post exactly the same thing, at the same time I didn't wait that... Gosh, this man will make us crazy. CAN'T WAIT !!!

That's it, I'm excited like a child at Christas' eve... One week and half, my friends ! That said, I will not come alone at Chalons, so I will have my own personnal taxi, finally. But i will be alone at the concert, so if you want to talk, @Viviane and @elsamanon29 (or someone else)... I already know I will probably don't dare to make the first step, so don't hesitate, I will be the girl looking like a lost and lonely teenager (though being 29 and very happy to be there), sitting in her corner.

Oh, yeees ! You're great ! That's just so good to see that again ! Thank you !

Don't know if that's useful at that point, but the lyrics of the snippet are clearly : Car je n'aurai plus peur de toi Avec des fleurs, même en silence Elle me le dit, elle me le dit Alors la vie, regarde moi car je n'aurais plus peur de toi Avec des fleurs, même en silence Elle me le dit, elle me dit danse (Because I will not be afraid of you anymore With flowers, even in silence She tells me it, she tells me it So, life, look at me Because I will not be afraid of you anymore With flowers, even in silence, She tells me it, she tells me "dance") And then, the chorus we already know... There was only some words we didn't have completely, I think.

I totally get you on this, it's exactly why I'm fan of Mika, and I just "like" some other artists. It's becaus he's... well, who he is. As for how it is when his gaze is directed to you, I think your emoji is pretty much accurate.

What good news ! I'm happy to hear that ! It seems like a song I will like, at least I know for sure I will probably deeply love the lyrics and message, and the chorus is already hyper-catchy and give this urge to dance ! And plus, it will be released just before Chalons' gig, so, maybe I will hear it live very, very soon, too !

Oh, how I love these reports . To answer, yes, I had the luck to meet him, though briefly, and long ago. It was in 2010, at Colmar. I didn't know it when I was on my way to my second Mika's concert, but this day, a Meet and greet would be organised. I never talked about it on this forum, I think, it's the occasion. Just after the gig, my mother told me we should stay here, because she saw someone talking to the first row fans and they were very happy, so she thought something would happen, and for something, it was something. At that time, I was 16, I didn't even imagine it was possible, but I had the conditions for being authorized at this Meet and Greet. Before I could process what happened, I had a little bracelet around my arm. I was extremely lucky this day. I don't think there was so much of this, it should have been a nightmare for people who organised these events, though I wasn't in any fan forum at that time, (despite being a fan since 2007), so I don't know. This evening we could take individual photos with all the musicians and drink crémant d'alsace (well, not me, I was still minor and I'm very rapidly drunk so it wasn't the best idea ). It was the evening Mika told us how he named his new puppy dog, Melachi. It was an evening where everyone could give him his birthday presents and sing happy bithday to him. It was simply a crazy night. And me... I was at the same time in an irreal, but extremely happy mood like you can imagine, but also a little anxious because I didn't know what to do, as you can imagine too for a very, very shy and insecure 16 years old. What will I say ? How should I behave ? What if I make something totally idiot ? And before all, how is he in real life ? Is he as nice as he seems ? In fact, he was even nicer. He came, a little embarassed and shy, but with a sweet smile. He really seemed nice, and he was, more than I could have imagine, without being in any forum or fan club. At the same time, it was a little strange to see him like that, I mean, we know artists we love are normal persons, but it's something else to see it with our own eyes. Ah, also, I thought something like "OMG, he's really that tall ? It's like I'm 6 y.o beside him" Strangely, I didn't feel as nervous when he came. I felt more at ease, probably because I was happy to see he was really as nice as he seemed. And so, like that, it came. I was calmly waiting my turn, who came way more soon that I thought. I was in the first he stopped near, in fact he didn't even stop because I was there since the beginning, I didn't know he would stop precisely where I was...And so, our eyes met. It was the first time I had a real eye-to-eye contact with him, I mean, when he really looks at us. It's hard to explain what it feels like for those who didn't live it, but he's really looking at us, it's not just a little gaze. I don't know how to explain it, really. It's just an incredible sensation. It happened since then at gigs and made me the same effect, but I will never forget this first time. It was strange, because I just spent 30 minutes to think anxiously about what I would say, and when the moment came, when I was there, all seemed incredibly simple. In less than one second, I saw all the times his music made me happy, made me dance, or cry, or playing piano, or feel better, in a flash-back. I still don't know today how it happened. Never had something like that before or after. It just happened at the second our eyes met, and so, I immediately knew what I wanted to say. So, I just said very simply : "Thank you for all", hoping I could make all my heart in those words. And then, always looking at me, he smiled to me. A big smile. Then, I wanted to wish him a happy birthday, but apparently, I couldn't make anymore so all that came out of my mouth was something like : "Hum... Yeah... Eh... Ha'y bi'th'dy", I don't remember the rest. I think this smile took all the place in my memory. Any way, I told what I had to tell. I didn't search to speak to him anymore, just letting him talking with the others, enjoying the moment and deciding I should join a fan club because I knew I really admired him even more now. When I think of that moment, I still feel the feelings. I never forgot that smile, and even if I have the occasion to meet him once more, I think it will never erase that feeling. It's rare I can wait after gigs (well, now I normally can), and when I wait, he doesn't come or it's chaos and he can't spent time with us, so I never could speak to him again, but I honestly can't complain, and I don't, with so great memories in my head.

I want to cry with joy, because there's a new song. I want to cry with sadness because of those lyrics. And I want to dance because that's so catchy. That's Mika. This is really exciting to hear, can't wait to hear this one in its final version !

Great ! It's the same for me, it's probably the same hotel... I already feels less alone, I guess there will be a group of fans walking, leaving the venue at the same time, and if I walk, I will not be all alone on the streets...

Hey, everybody ! I post that here because it's the gig where I go, but my question is more general (so feel free to move it in other topic). I have a logistic problem : how do you make it from the concert to the hotel after a show, since it's night and all ? Because maybe this will be my first time ever traveling alone, and my family isn't the traveling type either. I already have my accomodations for all, excepted this one point... Thank you for your future answers !

There's a lot of songs I really cried on when I was younger and didn't know music had such power. Now, I'm better for controlling my feelings, so at "worst" I feel emotionnal. Any Other World made me cry more than once when I was 13-15 years old. It was therapeutic for me, who didn't authorize myself to cry for various idiotic reasons, so I felt better after. I related a lot with the lyrics, it got me everytime and still moves me today. There's Hurts. It remembers me this girl I met in high school, I really thought she was one of my best friends, until she rejected me, not before criticize me again and again, basically, for something I couldn't make anything against : my autism. It took me months for feeling better about it. Hurts is so much a word by word account of what I felt it still moves me, I obviously couldn't react in another way when I heard it the first times. Happy Ending, Porcelain, I see you, Blue (in symphonic especially) and Heroes made me cry or at least, feel emotionnal for the most recent songs, but not because I related, only because of the beauty. I especially thinks of the orchestra version of Heroes. I had tears in my eyes the first time I heard Happy Ending A Capella. The beauty of those moments I wasn't prepared to live...

As french, it's exactly what I hear. Anyway we're finally able to hear french snippets, and that's great.

I just ordered my ticket today ! Not so far, very cheap, the only thing is I don't know how I will go, but I have time for decide that. I'm happyyyyy ! I've finally found my 2023 gig !

I really, really love what he's posting those last days (well, I always love when he's posting something, but that makes me especially happy...)

Yes, it doesn't sound like "soleil". I don't hear french at all, maybe it's some african/moroccan dialect ?

This song give fantastic vibes ! This mix of african, moroccan and "mika-ish" music is just so good ! It's impossible to listen to it without wanting to dance. I prefer it that the duo version of "feels like fire" too, (the orchestral version is unbeatable for me, though). How I love this soundtrack...

I love both version but the orchestral... It's incredible, this song is just wonderful. As much as I love his upbeat songs, I missed calm ones, with few instruments. And there it is. His voice is so beautiful. Téhu's songs are my favorites new songs since a long time. And the orchestral "Feels like fire" is certainly my favorite.

The only reason why I still didn't write my joy here is I'm totally speechless. I really don't know what to say about this soundtrack. I knew it would be wonderful, but it's even better. I waited to hear that since months, like everything Mika makes, but even more because I was really curious to hear, and also, because beside Mika I really like to listen instrumental music, may be classical, soundtracks or modern piano pieces. So, Mika making that inspired me this : And that's also what I feel now I heard it. All that I can say at the moment is I'm really moved. I think Mika writing a movie soundrack was really something I needed in my life without knowing it. It's something totally new, but yes, I agree with you, it's still him. I would love to make a super-long speech about what all that inspires me, but I can't -not yet. I just LOVE this soundtrack very, very much. That's all. For the moment, I have difficulties to tell what are my favorites pieces. I think each of them have one bit I really love, so it's hard to tell. I suppose I will be able to in some time. Honestly, if someone tells me Mika is just some commercial singer or, without talent, I will put this soundrack under his nose... or on the ears.

Ah, that's pretty much what I thought it would be. A nice and fun song, and we feel in a very good mood after listening to it (I needed that). Well, it's maybe just a little naughtier than what I thought Not my favorite, nor musically nor lyrically, but I like it

Of course, like many, I will still prefer Mika in solo but... I like Vianney, so I'm very happy he's making a collaboration with him ! I'm curious to hear it, really. And new music, especially just before my birthday and without any warning, that's just GOOD !

I watched it and, it was SO GOOD ! Since it was the same tour, it was a little like if I was in Colmar again. I feel all high, apparently, my body have an excellet memory, since I felt the same things at the same moments Plus, Francofolies was really wonderful, from what I see, so even without my remembering moments, it was perfect. And I must say, the sound and the image were excellent ! I don't know until when France TV plans to broadcast Mika's concerts every year, but I hope it will continue.

I'm very excited about this since he announced it, so seeing those clips made my day ! Once again, it sounds promising, and they all seems so happy about it it makes me smile too.

Wow, that's incredible if the two albums and the soundtrack are all finished !! That's just so much joy to think of it, I just can't wait to hear ALL those new musics !
