I've just seen this.

I'm glad that times are changing,

(big) BUT,

it makes me very sad that back in the 

"Grace Kelly' days MIKA was frankly 

blocked from US music markets.

So unjust! 😢

 

It's insane, I remember how big GK was here in 2007, still played on the radio and in the charts, my first Mika song I enjoyed as a kid/teenager (I was 11-12 at the time) and I can't believe that the song was "banned" somewhere else... I simply don't get it. 

There's a very similar article about Greg Wells and This Is Me here, in the last part (under Greg's photo) they also mention Mika:

"L'Italiano" was a huge hit in France when it was released ,but I didn't know it was also known in Romania!! 

Good choice to please the "no fan" audience as well as the fans!

 

 It's well known in the Czech Republic too like many other "older" Italian songs (I knew even the song which was played right after Mika's performance).

Damn, I missed him, only saw the last 2 minutes, when he had just finished singing with Chiara. So he sang GK, Beautiful Disaster and Stardust? Anything else? I hope there'll be a recording.

Thanks Eriko for the links, photos and videos!

You can still watch it, I missed the beginning too but it's possible to rewind the live streaming...

Just two stars out of four? 

EDIT: @crazyaboutmika the rating of the show in the TV magazine... 

I unfortunately don't speak French so I can't help you but it seems that many Mika fans share a passion for languages. I'm studying translation and interpreting studies too.

"C’est Quoi Ce Bonheur"

 

 

It isn't available... 

I have to say I wasn't a fan of him at the beginning of his career but now on the new album there are some enjoyable songs! I really like Done For Me (I think this is my favourite because it has a good beat and it's catchy) and also How Long.

So someone get a little bit lazy then 😜

I hope he'll make some bonus tracks (as he usually do and it won't be just remixes) about which he's not telling us now (because he probably doesn't have them yet) 

I think that bonus tracks (if there aren't acoustic versions or remixes) are usually just songs that don't make the cut but are still pretty good... As you usually record more songs for an album than you finally choose to use. So maybe some of the songs he doesn't want to have on the standard 11 tracks edition anymore if he doesn't hate them too much?

I don't know if Poland is on his gig list too, but I think Mika will do so many dates in Europe! 

I really hope there'll be something in Central Europe as I probably won't be able to travel to France or Italy for a concert...

It means that the album is "almost"ready 😜

"Almost" makes a difference, but (this is what I think) I understand that the album MUST be released this year. (It's only 7 months, no longer  ).

I agree, that's what I've been thinking about too, somewhere I read a rumour about November but I think it could be realistic as I don't see anything coming before autumn...

I don't like the winner neither..

 

I'm happy for Italy.. The televote moment was full of suspense XD "Ok, now they'll say Italy. They'll say it now, surely". And I went on thinking it every time they mentioned a nation 🙈😂 in the end it's been a beautiful surprise

The Italian song was one of the best in my opinion, I really liked it. 

I have to say it's better today than what I saw on Thursday...

On Polish google it looks like this: see below.

 

The internet mixed information about Mika and Mika Urbaniak (Polish-American singer). It's crazy! But it's just the this page where we can see a copilation.

On proper pages everything is correct.

But yes, if anybody does like us (google MIKA), he will think that Mika was born the 8th of January 1980, so he is 38.

On the other hand somebody looking for Mika Urbaniak information can learn she was born in Beirut and her full name is Michael Holbrook Penniman Jr. Did she change sex? Ha ha ha!

Does she sing "Popular Song"? On the bottom you can see Mika's (our Mika's) albums.

Be careful while playing with the Internet!!!! You never know what you find.

 

That explains why once Google considered Mika a female singer when I was searching for something, I've been always wondering about it (I didn't know about the other MIka...). But what does any of these Mikas have in common with the band The Boss from Soul, South Korea?! EDIT: One of the members is called Mika...

For me  the Eurovision is an overrated, boring event and I'm not proud of our two German winners from the past and I don't care more about the German participants as others, however, those who like, have fun, guys

I actually agree with you, I saw it today just because my mum was watching and I was in the same room but I don't like the show, the songs are mostly uninteresting to me and the show is really boring... I don't get the hype either.

Me and to be honest, I didn't like any of the songs...

It's more than certain that the title of this movie appeared here earlier but in polish TV right now there is a film Monte Carlo and I already heard Love Today and Relax 

Wait to the end! 

I really like her voice, I think about buying a ticket to her concert in Prague. 

From what I've read on Twitter (ok, actually more "google translate"), the rugby fans are quite confused about the choice and think it's not fitting to the event... But I hope the show will be still a success.

Yep surprising but not the kind of surprise I expected 

 

You can always skip the whole match and watch only  the Mika's mini gig 

Of course I won't watch the whole match but it's still quite funny to watch a rugby event, the idea of it is just surreal to me tbh...
