  1. The title Jealousy makes me think about this song, it's my favourite song from her, I hope that I'll enjoy Mika's song at least as much as this one... But I guess it will be more up-beat because Mika described the next single as melodic and catchy.

     

     

  2. Reading an article about the Czech charts and being surprised by the Mika reference:

    The song features Mika, however it isn't the famous British singer of that name but a local singer. :naughty:

    Unfortunately still not famous enough to be played on the radio... :emot-sad:

  3. A radio station I'm listening to just announced they will play a song by Mika. I sent them Ice Cream weeks ago and they promised to consider it but I'm still expecting Relax or Grace Kelly instead. Then they announced they will talk about ice cream. *gets a little bit excited, maybe there's hope after all* And then they played Grace Kelly... :banghead:

      It's the same old story. Maybe if Mika promoted the single there...again the same old story. Promo in the same places where there's no need, or at least not so much because he is well known :sad:

      :dunno: no why? still  Grace Kelly the new single is Ice Cream uff... maybe when the album go out they played  this song i hope :crossed: @giraffeandy don't worry :emot-sad: 

  4. I've just heard on the radio the wonderful song She is Always a Woman by Billy Joel and had to think of Mika who introduced me to so many great songs and musicians and I also had to listen to his cover of the song... It's really hard to concentrate on studying when everything reminds you of Mika. :lmfao:

      @Mikasister Me probably too, I have Spotify so I can stream it... But I saw this today on Instagram and thought it¨s quite funny how it fits. :naughty:

  6. *trying to introduce Mika to a friend while chatting*

     

    Me (sending a link to the Ice Cream performance): I'm addicted to this song right now, it's not out yet but I couldn't wait because I adore Mika.

     

    My friend: He looks so good! He is half Lebanese, right?

     

    Well, not exactly the reaction I was expecting... :teehee:

      I saw it on Twitter during a class (without the sound but I know the original) and I had to laugh... :biggrin2:

  10. I saw this today on YouTube, it's from Sunday, I didn't even know that there's The Voice in my country (I don't watch TV very often)... :lmfao:

     

     

     

  11. Hi girls, I hope some of you can join me on this very "girly" topic. Tomorrow it's Valentine's day and even though I'm not a fan of this holiday it always make me think of the fact that I've never been in a real relationship. It's kind of sad because it seems so easy for other people in my surroundings but impossible for me. I'm usually not the girl who complains about being single, I'm actually used to it. However, the society makes it hard sometimes, people are always asking etc. I think it's still better to be alone than to be in some toxic relationship but sometimes it makes me feel uncomfortable - once I was with two classmates and they began to talk about their relationships. I felt kind of excluded and then once of them mentioned some problems and the other said "at least you have a boyfriend" which made me feel quite bad as I was the only one who was single. Does anybody of you feel sometimes the same?

      omg I can definitely relate! (even though I'm only in year 7, my friends "date")

      Thanks @Dominika :hug:

       

      I also feel that I'm too safe in my comfort zone and that I should try to step out of it because you always hear that it feels good to try something different but to be honest, it usually feels worse... I don't know what's wrong with me but whenever I try because you never know if you haven't tried I realize it doesn't work for me. Does it make sense at all? :biggrin2:

       

      It's not just about relationships but for example I went on a date with a guy because I thought I shouldn't reject every invitation just because it feels safe to stay in your comfort zone (and dating is a huge step out of it for me) but I realize I don't really enjoy it, I mean, going to dates. I know, it sounds ridiculous but sometimes I really think there has to be something wrong with me because everyone gets so excited about dates and to me it feels like a dentist appointment (ok, it's not that bad but still, I just can't relate to most people...). :lmfao:

      If you don't enjoy dates, don't go on them :naughty: .  Go for group activities, it's easier hanging out in a crowd, and you may get to meet someone you actually want to spend time with.  I joined a folk music club, just made myself useful helping with running the club, and ended up going out with a folk singer for a while.  Though that didn't last, two other men I met there are still my friends, we've stayed in touch for years.

  12. Hi girls! 😘

    I few days ago I've ordered Songbook from Amazon (I know I'm late as Mika...). I always thought I don't need it as there aren't any new songs (with a few exceptions, but I already own the majority of them). However, now I have it in my collection too and I have to reorganize my whole CD shelf because of the new CDs I've ordered... :naughty: This is also happening with my bookshelfs all the time.

     

    P.S. Feeling a bit better this week. :group_hug:

      @ loo and mikasister :lol3: true but for Mika's album every things is possible . do you feel better? very good

  13. Hi girls, how are you? 😘 Unfortunately I have to say I don't feel so well this month. There's actually no reason but since January I started to feel a little bit depressed, lonely and hopeless... It's sad but I don't want to speak about it with my family because they would worry too much. That's why I want to share it with you and ask you, if you ever feel the same and what do you do against it? I'd like to find some new friends or hobbies because my best friend is so busy with her job, school, hobbies, boyfriend etc. However, it's quite difficult, I don't know where to start. I'm trying to focus on studying now but it's also hard to do so. Sorry if my post doesn't make sense, I just had to share my thoughts with someone. Thank you for reading it.

      @Paoletta Hi, thanks for asking, it's like weather, but I'll try to go out more next week to be more active and I also decided to contact the counseling center of our university, maybe it'll help to talk with a therapist about the feelings because now I'm not even able to learn because of lack of concentration... And my mom began to worry anyway because I'm not hungry at all, I eat a little bit but it's really hard for me. However, I'm trying my best to change it, it helps me to do some exercises and also writing down the problems right now feels better. Thank you again for your support, MFC is the best!

  14. I just opened Spotify and saw this... I've listened to a lot of music this month, not just Mika, but it seems Spotify knows me better. :lmfao: (Golden is my playlist full of Mika songs that are on Spotify but aren't on any album I own.)

  15. I turned up the radio but as usual didn't really enjoy the music there so I was listening to Sinfonia Pop the whole evening... :wub2: When both CDs were over, I was going to turn off the CD player but before that I decided to switch to the radio first. And guess what song I've heard:

      This is the way you left me,

      No hope, no love, no glory,
      No happy ending :serenade: i love this song...

  16. Update on my project: It's not done yet, I want it a bit thicker, but it's going quite well so far... My original idea was to use the quote "I live for glitter not you" but then I thought it's a bit too long and complicated. :biggrin2: So I've chosen Love Today.

  17. Please wish me luck with my new creative project, I've never done this before. :lmfao: Today I've finally received my hot fix applicator which I've ordered weeks ago and bought a new grey jersey and some hot fix stones and crystals. I want to do some Mika-related design, probably some quote, I hope it will work... It's the perfect project for my exam time. :biggrin2:AirBrush_20190109181126.thumb.jpg.f5ead46711ab40cc25e06d062f6d8352.jpg

      Thank you so much for your support, you are the best! :group_hug:

       

      @Anna Ko Kolkowska Of course I will create the design first without using the applicator to see how it looks like. :wink2:

  18. I've been following this YT channel for a while now and this video made me laugh, the guy paid people to make a song for his dog, it's really funny... :lmfao:

     

  19. I've found Songs for Sorrow on ebay.de "just" for 40 €, but the seller doesn't have any reviews and he/she is selling only this one item, so I'm not sure if it's trustful enough... But I thought it's an interesting price for the EP.

      I bought last year from one MFCer who was selling her collection but it cost more, there were autographs in it.

    3. giraffeandy

      With autographs it has more value.

      I saw one sealed on ebay recently for £25 but it had a reserve price and it wasn't met so it didn't sell.

  20. Maybe I'm just tired but today I listened to the song Girls and I got this idea... I know I'm crazy. :lmfao:

  22. I've bought this month a new phone (after 8 years so it was quite needed) and already changed the background several times but I think I will keep this at least for a while... :biggrin2:

  23. Today I accidentally found Mika on two playlists Spotify recommended to me – Cheesy Hits! and Guilty Pleasures... I'm not sure if I should feel happy about it. Mika is a proud pleasure! :biggrin2:

  24. I used to be a really big fan of her and I still like her, especially her older music, but the new song is so good... It's about her illness (she had Lyme disease in the past years) and it almost made me cry, it's so emotional.

      @Lilyen :lmfao: Skater Boy was my favourite song when I was like 11, we used to sing it with my best friend all the time. And a few days ago I heard My Happy Ending on the radio and realized I still know all the lyrics, such a great song. 

    4. Lilyen

      Lilyen

      yes!! Nostalgy of my teenager-years.......:punk::glasses2::lmfao:

  25. I would even rather collect all editions of Mika's new album but pens are better than nothing... :lmfao:

    I finally got my boxes yesterday, they are even nicer live than on all the photos I've seen before. :wub:
