  1. You're very welcome girls Yes, that's right. He is a pretty good songwriter! A few years ago he was in an Italian indie band called Amor Fou, the lyrics he wrote were very interesting, some of them dealing with serious topics, too. He also collaborated with probably the most acclaimed Italian contemporary songwriter of the indie scene. Now he works for Universal and writes for several Italian pop singers. I would never have expected this choice, I'm honestly impressed.
  2. It's Sky Life Magazine, they interviewed Victoria Cabello. She speaks a little about Mika. It's nothing special to be honest, but I can translate that part later if anyone's interested. Of course if anybody's willing to do it now, be my guest I thought someone had already posted them, if not, these are the scans:
  3. Welcome Corinne, have fun here!
  4. I would have loved to go, but a gig is great news anyway! Good luck to everyone who will be able to enter the competition! Ambroisette, thanks for asking, maybe they'll really do something for the live stream...
  5. Thanks, I've read this with interest NOOO! No "Good morning, mr Seal"?? First the fact that Santa doesn't exist, now this.
  6. I love the idea behind this commercial, it seems so much fun and and hopefully it will be good promotion. Thank you Deb for the insight and for the constant huge work, highly appreciated!
  7. Thank you all for your reports, they filled me with joy I'm so happy for you, you deserved to live these good moments
  8. Thank you for the report, I've read with a big smile on my face through it all Especially the meet & greet part, very sweet! I'm glad everybody had a great time. So, November is confirmed, that's interesting news The flowery suit:
  9. Deb, I'm really sorry you weren't able to go crazy weather! Everyone who's there, enjoy! Thanks Guy for the updates about the Boum boum boum acoustic performance (strings ) Looking forward to reading your reports!
  10. Thank you Anne, I like this interpretation. It's the same I had when I saw the first stills of the video: an ironic subversion of the masculine stereotype achieved by making those iconic movie characters (all typical masculine idols) look funny and quirky. Considering the other, more obvious, interpretation as well (the symbolic representation of sex through the "boum boum" of the gunshots, which leads to the contrast love/violence), I think the video is appropriate because it celebrates ALL kinds of love (as he said the song does) in an elegant, non-vulgar and clever way. On this note, making fun of the traditional image of the manly sex symbol seems to me quite a statement. Please forgive me if I've repeated the things others have already said before, I'll be able to catch up when my exams are over
  11. Backstage photos https://m.facebook.com/185483108323537/albums/265686583636522/
  12. I've been mentioned in the award speech again? Once again I don't even know what you are thanking me for, cool I won't forget all these thanks, you'll see... Someday, if I have the chance to make a video as well, I'll thank my family, the old Gods and the new, Scorsese, Maradona and you.
  13. L'ho pensato anch'io... Lasciatemi sognare su
  14. Hi, southern girl here Yes, you can if you're facing the Strait of Messina. This is the view from Messina And this is the one from Reggio Calabria (you can see the Etna in the background) Well, it's not a rule, but many people want to keep the kitchen and leave with it. You don't do that? I suppose we're greedy people.
  15. Hello and welcome! Buon divertimento
  16. I'm too tired to discuss it now, sorry, my head would explode if I tried to put my thoughts in a decent English. I basically agree with what Melanie said. Anyway, here's a part of chapter 2. The rest is coming tomorrow. Feel free to correct me if something is wrong. Enjoy! M: So for you, Dario, what there is after death? D: Well what happens in the Holy Scriptures? Jesus dies, before resurrecting he goes to hell and smashes everything, the door, the entrance that was closed. And he imediately frees the pure, clear men, and among them Adam and Eve, who had been punished and sent to hell because they had offended God by disobeying and doing as they liked. So he smashes everything and the first people he saves are Adam and Eve, the beginning of mankind, he rehabilitates it. There are some beautiful paintings from the VIII century, from the XI, etc., that tell this story. It is wonderful that Christ erases something that now is a whole religious discipline that contemplates birth with suffering, the sense of sin and guilt, and then the sorrow, being born with pain, the labour, all going on until death. And this was erased from the Gospel. M: When? D: It’s all in Christ’s speech, he always speaks about the possibility of finding again the joy and the happiness among men. M: In life. D: While living. M: While living, yes. D: Not after death, not in the afterlife, “wait and you’ll have the blessing", no. M: Well then, if we find all this joy, this self-confidence*, this enlightenment when we’re living, what there is after? *he uses a made-up word here, “balanza”, I’m not sure of what he meant. I translated it as if it were “baldanza”
  17. The full show is here without the introduction with Mika, though. Probably their whole dialog will be uploaded too, later. http://www.rai.tv/dl/RaiTV/programmi/media/ContentItem-6dcf545d-6d8e-47f2-a55e-6d8c632ea602.html
  18. He's watching his Instagram tags http://instagram.com/p/pjdoawTVcu/ http://instagram.com/p/pjhnCegwsR/
  19. Yeah, this was my first thought when I heard the news I enjoyed reading his XL columns, so I'm quite optimistic about this project, even though I don't want to delude myself. I understand it's a co-written book after all, not entirely his work, very much will depend on the editor's choices.
  20. It's like the pilates' picture from some time ago turned upside down. I know I'm weird but I cracked up laughing when I saw this. A plain autobiography doesn't seem his thing at all, I would rather expect something involving some artwork (as the picture seems to suggest). On the other hand, it must be something the publisher has decided to invest on, something they suppose to be lucrative, so even though I like the idea of a children's book it seems a bit unlikely. In short, I have no idea but I'm very curious to find out more
  21. Totally, everytime I come here I save myself from writing anything in any thread because you already said it A unique account – Lady Elw – could do.
  22. So many memories! Good thing I am always alone at home when eating Nutella. I must have the weirdest expression on my face when I do it, people would be creeped out and say "Why on Earth are you giggling over a Nutella jar?"
