    Where did you get a copy? I thought it's only digital... And when I saw the music video I was also thinking of Mika's EP project and if he is doing something similar.

    The new EP is great indeed!

    Two weeks ago, I was quite sad that the European leg of the tour is ending but now I think it ended just at the right time... Artists are already postponing their tours even in Europe. Some dates of the European tour wouldn't be possible right now so now I'm even more grateful for what we had and looking forward to the summer events.

    He misspelled Freddie Mercury... But a great review otherwise, especially from someone who wasn't a die-hard fan before the show!

    Bad news: There's a reconstruction in our house so there's a lot of noise lately (drilling etc.).

    Good news: Songs like Dear Jealousy, Sanremo, Tomorrow or Platform Ballerinas sound really good when you play them really LOUD.

      @silver Because normally, I don't play the music so much loud because of the neighbours... But now it doesn't matter anyway.

    @TinyLove_CJ @Starlight Unfortunately, I can relate to your stories too. I was bullied at school especially at the age of 9 to 11, then I changed the school to a grammar school and it got a little bit better, I mean I wasn't popular at all and some people still made fun of me but on the previous school it was even worse... I had one best friend who sometimes didn't want to hang up with me because as @TinyLove_CJ said, it made her less cool. Luckily, on the grammar school I got a best friend who was (and still is) very loyal so that made things a lot easier. I didn't know what was wrong with me back then, I guess I was rather shy so I was an easy target. I kept thinking for years that it's my fault that I can't get along with people. It took me a long time to get over it and I'm still dealing with some consequences. But leaving school and start studying helped a lot, the people are much better at the university. After years I feel confident again. But I still have trust issues when meeting new people and I need a lot of time to become friends with someone. I really appreciate how often Mika speaks about being bullied. I know it's something you don't want to speak about, you don't want to remember or even think about it but is very helpful when you see a grown-up man sharing his story. Of course also many of his songs are thematizing this struggle. Especially the song Hurts helped me a lot to leave that period behind me, it came at the right time when my life was changing for better and I needed this song to deal with the past and move on.

    Mika's music should be available in the pharmacy because today I didn't sleep well and felt quite sick in the morning but then I started listening to MNIMH and I feel much better now... Not perfect, but I have still Mika's whole discography to heal me.

    Maybe we can make a "Practicing Spanish for Mika's next project" thread on MFC where we would learn Spanish together...
  11. giraffeandy
    I know but I didn't mean now, he has been there before and also we don't know about all his journeys, only about places where he has gigs or he shares them on IG.
  12. giraffeandy
    I do believe he'll release some EPs this or next year (or the year after...) but I don't believe he'll release the book anytime soon... So i just don't want to think about it yet.
  13. giraffeandy
    Yes, that too! The interview reminded me of some conversations with my mother where I keep agreeing with her but in fact don't pay attention at all...
  14. giraffeandy
    I found the longer radio interview with the male moderator really interesting, the other shorter one with the female moderator was a bit in a hurry, I had the feeling Mika is interviewing himself and the woman was just reacting with "Yes/Yeah!/Right"... She doesn't seem to be involved in to the conversation as much. But the project with different EPs sounds great. I won't comment on the book yet...
  15. giraffeandy
    Me too, I thought he won't speak about it till we forgot he ever mentioned it in the first place...

    I think so too! I'm just learning Spanish again for the next 3 months (I've already learned Spanish before but I'm still at A2 level at best) so for once in my life I'm learning the RIGHT language.

    I know that feeling from Leipzig, I felt like a second-class person without a bike there... So maybe he made the same experience in Germany too?

    I was just curious about the ticket prices as I didn't know the currency and I have to say it's really quite expensive (84 € for the ticket close to the stage and even more for VIP)...

    Tbh, I doubt the collab has anything to do with the third season of Elite but they just announced that the new season is going to be released on 13th March. So we will know for sure next month but I still think the collab is unrelated to that. I thought maybe it could be a song for Danna Paola's album but she apparently just released an reissue of her latest album so who knows what's this collab about...

    I realized that Mika has control over my life whether I like it or not. Everytime I'm thinking "ok, enough of Mika for today", I go out and hear a Mika song in a shop or I turn on the radio and a Mika song is playing... It's just inevitable!
  23. giraffeandy
    I had the same thought recently! I was sad about missing the last show when I saw all these nostalgic posts on social media but at the same time, I felt that being sad about it is a good sign because it means that I would feel even worse if I wouldn't travel to any of the shows so it was all worth it!
  24. giraffeandy
    I get it and totally agree with you but I just wanted to point out that unfortunately, Mika/his team is not always the best in announcing and promoting things... I was quite confused some days ago when I realized that the tickets for his summer concerts in Italy were already available even though he didn't post anything on social media until the tickets already went on sale... Which is quite late if you still want to get good places. So I get it that sometimes, it's difficult to wait if you want to buy the tickets ASAP.

    So glad that at least the show in Paris was filmed for TV so we have something to come back to now when the big show is apparently over... I watched it yesterday and it helped me a lot with being a bit sad about missing the last show. Social media is nice but sometimes it can hurt. :lmfao: I especially loved Paloma, I have to say it's not my favourite song on the setlist, but in Paris it seemed to be one of the best moments. Thank you again @carafon for sending me the link! :hug:
