Rhapsody in Blue is a wonderful piece of music

Oh sorry, I mixed it up, I couldn't recall the name and I came up with a different one...

The melody played in the background in this video immediately reminds me of this masterpiece:

Am I the only one?

I've seen several comments on youtube, people saying they didn't realize they'd been pronouncing his name wrong... they seem to think he's saying "my name is Mika Holbrook" pronounced MY-ka.  

I hope once the album is out it will become clear for them...

In France, we still don"t hear Tiny Love on the radios. Do you hear it in other contries ?

Unfortunately the radios here still didn't get over LICM...  If it's not played in France, then there's just Italy left I'm afraid.

Mika always says he isn´t in the slightest romantic or he is as romantic as a bar stool. I would like to know what he thinks is romantic when he is not....... eating with candle light - not romantic, flowers everywhere - not romantic, sitting in front of a fire place with partner - not romantic, telling the partner how much he is loved in front of hundreds of people - not romantic, writing many love songs for partner - not romantic............ what is being romatic in his eyes????

Exactly, Sabine, he is soooo romantic even if he denied it in the past 

We have terms "Mikasoon", we can have "nonromaticMika" when he does all those beautiful things 

Don't forget that Mika is full of contradictions...  But I think I know what he means when he says he is not a romantic person, I can even relate a bit. For example when I hear a romantic song like Perfect by Ed Sheeran, it sounds so cheesy to me and I can't stand it (sorry for those who are fans... ) or when I see a really cheesy gesture in a romantic movie, I wouldn't enjoy such things in real life at all. But on the other hand sometimes I can appreciate things that are kind of romantic. Not sure if I explained it well but I hope you get my idea...

this video remember me a video of "Last Party" so sweet

A mixture of Last Party and Good Guys, both in my top 3 music videos by Mika (Rain is the third one )... 

Hi!  Really a nice introduction. Good Guys is also my favourite music video!  

I have the feeling there are quite a lot of MFCers who work with languages (I study Translation Studies too and I'm not the only one here), it seems it's a common thing among Mika fans... 

Do you think Tiny Love is the song Mika mentioned some time ago as he said he wrote a song that consists of different parts and he never wrote a song like that before? 

There are a lot of songs on the playlist from some Austrian duo called Mika...

Well then, maybe 13, 14, these are more or less the songs that are in each of his previous albums

I think it won't be more than 12 on the standard version (if there's a deluxe edition... I hope so!), probably only 10-12.

I guess this is the "little Kylie homage" he mentioned...

The Fabulous Luigis told us before Mika hahahah

Mika is late as usual... 

For once I'll be in the right country but still 400 km away... I need an event in the south the same week. 

You can still hear the song, just play the live stream of the show and go back to 7:53! 

The song was already released on his last album this year (without Mika):

So it isn't brand new, just the collab...

No. We need a whole song for each person so that we can pick up fragments here and there and build a whole new film with those fragments

I also think almost 3 minutes is too long... Maybe we could divide the song into more parts with some overlaps to make sure it fits all together?

When a concert is sold out so early they sometimes make an upgrade and move the concert to a bigger venue... At least here they do it quite often if they see the place sold out too quickly.

Just received on my fb this notification and when I want to see the comunity it says the content is not available at the moment What's that notification? It's the first time I receive it.

I received the same on fb yesterday...

I don't want to be stressed during the trip so I booked a room in a hotel just 1,5 km from the venue anyway, it's a free reservation so I can cancel it 3 days before... The trip is already getting expensive so I think I don't care anymore.  It's for 109 CHF but it's for two so I hope I can find someone to share, I'm in contact with one Czech fan so hopefully I won't travel alone. Otherwise I can offer it to someone here who is interested.

I haven't even looked for bus/train/flight connections yet for this tour. 🙈

Maybe someone who's there by car can take you, if it's on their way. The problem is that you never know for sure what time Mika comes out, there might have a party backstage, or interviews which make it last longer, we never know that in advance.

I get it, unfortunately there are less bus lines on Saturday so you don't have so many time options...

(continued from the tour rumours thread)

Yes, it wasn't close to the venue - that's in an industrial area, right next to a shopping centre. But we had a car.

Yeah with a car it isn't a problem... So hopefully I won't miss anything when leaving after midnight, the bus station is about 3,5 km from the venue and there's also a night bus or train to get there.

That's true. There's not even cheap hostels. Last time we stayed at an Airbnb, that was the best option. Maybe you can find something there?

The prices are similar to the hotels, I found just one cheap flat but too far away from the venue...

Don't remember, but when I have time, I could take a look at the time stamp on my pictures. It wasn't particularly long or short, iirc.

I planned to stay over one night but apparently Zurich is the most expensive city for living according to The Economist... And unfortunately the hotels really aren't the cheapest.

Usually they only have a certain allocation of tickets for the presale, so I'm sure there's still tickets left for the general sale. At least if you can buy tickets at the time they go on sale, not sure how fast they'll sell out.

 

 

Yes, yesterday evening it suddenly worked. Guess they just took longer.

Finally have my ticket too!  

As you've already been to a show in Zurich, do you have an idea about the time schedule, when does the show end and how long have you been waiting after the show? I found out that I could leave the night of the concert at 1:30 but I dont want to be in a hurry because of that...

Thanks for that! Got my tickets for Brussels now and my friend bought our tickets for Strasbourg on the other presale website. Now only I need to get London, which didn't work for me earlier, due to various problems. But the presale allocation seems to be sold out.

 

And did anyone get tickets for Zurich? Apparently that's not available, it says Friday.

Today Zurich suddenly works even without a code...
