Hello! Are you able to see the videos of yesterday episode? I see them on my computer, there is not the entire episode but there are all the speeches of the judges, but I have not yet figured out if you were able to see it or not!

Ciao a tutti i miei connazionali

Mi chiamo Cristina e sono di Milano!! Mi è sempre piaciuto Mika, sin da "Grace Kelly", ma con "We are golden" (soprattutto per il video) me ne sono innamorata definitivamente!!! e adesso che parla anche bene l'italiano ho proprio perso la testa

Non vedo l'ora di giovedì per vedere Mika in diretta

 

 

 

Ciao DerMoment1608!! Oltre a Ligabue ed Elisa ti consiglio anche Max Pezzali, le sue canzoni sono scritte in un italiano corretto e secondo me sono bravissimi anche i Negramaro e i Rio!

Ciao, benvenuta!!!

No, I don't think so. It sounds like he has an actual place in mind, because he says "it's more of a dump than a mansion." And then he says it's ugly, and "this house is not a palace" or something like that -- they talk over him, so I can't quite make it out.

 

Later he says from Milan in one hour he can go to another country, it's incredible, but if he's in LA, "where can I go?" (Well, as Teresa noted he says, what can I do? but I think he means "where can I go?" ) Mexico? San Francisco? I don't like San Francisco." He makes a face when he says it, so I guess he really doesn't like SF for some reason.

 

 

 

 

Yes, I believe much of the world has changed in that regard, except maybe the US. I saw some numbers the other day -- something like only 39% of Americans have a passport, and more than half have never been outside the US! Really surprises me, as I would spend the rest of my life traveling if money were not an issue.

 

 

 

Che bellissime ragazze!

Thank you Teresa and Flavia

 

I would love Mika to do a radio show (about music of course!)

YES - me too, that would be really fantastic!! MIKA has said many times how much he likes radio, and I so agree, it's one of the things I really can't live without, cause I get what I need there- music, important info, news, entertainment etc. MIKA is well spoken, funny and clever, with a lovely voice - I'm sure he would be a wonderful radio host!!

 

Thank you Flavia - for your great translation of the last part!!

 

Love,love

me

You're welcome

According to me=secondo me, it means 'in my opinion'

 

Edit: and thank you Flavia for finishing the translation! Team work!

Thanks to all of you, your work is great!

Hello! I had a little bit of time so I tried to translate the rest of his interview at Radio Deejay.

From minute 14.00 of Mari's video in Daily Motion posted in this thread:

L. So, we are with Mika, two or three quick questions about tonight show X Factor - The Home Visit. Which is your category?

M. Women. Under Women. Young Women.

N. So you win! You win Mika! This year you win!

L. They (under women) win almost always!

M. I hope so! In my opinion yes, with a little bit of luck! But we'll see. This year all the other are good.

L. Look instead Elio has the over (singers over the age of 24)

M. Yes, this is horrible! The "Over" in english means "terminated"

L. Really?

M. Yes, it's very bad!

L. I didn't see in this way!

M. The OLD! (laughing)

L. They are not so old! They have EVEN 25 - 26 years!

M. Yes, yes!

L. The episode (with judge Elio) was shot in Cremona, in a beautiful theatre. Simona, instead, is in Torino with Busta of the Subsonica (an italian band).

M. Yes. And Morgan is in Berlin with Asia Argento.

L. So a family reunion (Morgan and Asia Argento was married)

M. Yes.

L. Which category has Morgan?

M. What?

L. Which category has Morgan?

M. Ok! So Simona has the groups, Morgan.. hem… No Elio has the "terminated"! No they're not terminated. Ehm, Morgan has the boys.

L. Ok so Morgan has the boys, you have the girls.

M. Yes. Boys to Morgan. Girls to me.

L: Look, a listener write us "I had read somewhere that Mika was dyslexic". Is it true?

M. Yes, I'm very dyslexic.

L. You still are?

M. Yes, still. There wasn't a change, unfortunately! I can't write with, how can I say, with a pen. Only with a keyboard.

L. And so how do you do when you was a child?

M. I did bad! I changed school 3 times.

N. Where did you go at school? In which country?

M. First in France. After in England and they rejected me and then I started to do music, and music changed me everything because with music I could do something good, without thinking I'm stupid.

L. You have found more self confidence...

M. Yes! And my first job in music was when I was eleven in Strauss Opera.

L. What did you do?

M. I sang.

L. At eleven years old?

N. You used to sing in falsetto?

M. Yes, in the Royal Opera House of London. After that, school was a little bit easy to me.

L. When music has let you know that you were a guy with a great potential.

M. Yes!

L. A lot of listeners write us to give to you a radio program.

M. Who?

N. A lot of listeners! You rock in radio!

M. Ah, yes?

L. Yes, you rock!

M. Ah, very good! Ok, let's talk about that! You know that I can't read a watch? But I like watches so much! I'm doing a watch right now.

L. So you can't read watches?

M. I can't!

L. However, you are drawing one (watch) for Swatch?

M. Yes! But I can't read the watch!

L. We should trust anyway! Thanks Mika it is always a pleasure!

M. Thank you, too!

Hi and welcome to the MFC

Welcome to the MFC and have a lot of fun here

Thanks a lot!

Ciao Flavia e benvenuta tra noi!!

Vai tranquilla con l'inglese, un pò di pratica e di google translate"

e passa la paura....io ne so qualcosa!!

Ciao Flavia benvenuta!

divertiti sul forum e vienici a trovare nel thread italiano quando vuoi, il link lo trovi nella mia firma

Mika è davvero speciale!

 

PS e non ti preoccupare per l'inglese, va benissimo!

Grazie!!! Sicuramente mi sarà mooolto utile google traduttore, con un pizzico di wordreference!!! Non vedo l'ora di partecipare anche al thread italiano, sta già diventando la mia droga DD

Ragazzi, complimenti per la lista, è fantastica! Concordo anche io in pieno con i vostri suggerimenti, aggiungerei, visto che parliamo di musica melodica anche Laura Pausini! Non so se vi piace, so che molti non la amano, ma a me piace parecchio, inoltre con la sua voce cristallina trovo che scandisca molto bene le parole e potrebbe essere d'aiuto con l'italiano.

Hello, welcome!!!

Thanks! Yeah we are all his victim!

Hello mika fans! My name is Flavia and I'm from Rome... I'm so sorry for my creepy english but I hope I will learn it a little bit more than now!

I want to say hello to this special community... I think having the chance to connect with people who really understand his magic... is pretty amazing!
