Recently I discovered this page thanks to my Spanish classes, it's called Lyrics Training and you can practice different languages by filling song lyrics while listening to the music video. I use it for Spanish but today I discovered there are also some songs by Mika... I guess it would be a good tool for him to revise his own lyrics before the next tour (without the audio of course).

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.
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!

@Dominika I'll send it to you, a basic Dropbox account is free anyway...

TBH I don't like Spotify and don't use it that much, just when I want to listen to a brand new album or song, so many of my favorite artists are missing on this list as I mostly listen to their albums that I own (otherwise Mika would be first as I've listened to him the most this year) but song of the year really isn't a surprise...

@giraffeandy such a good one! Mine has to be Praying, I think. But Rainbow comes right after it

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.

Thinking of all the Italian fans here. I don't know how many of you live in or near the affected area but as long as it's possible, try to stay high not low... Hope you and your families are safe! Wish you health.
Of course that applies to everybody who lives in a country that is affected (at this point I think most of us do...).

@Lilyen It seems like Mika has read your comment...

This headline made my day:
'This is Tim's fault': Triathlete kicked out of virtual race after husband trips over cord

This is so heartwarming... And there are not enough nice news in these times.

This summer in Mallorca I saw many fake Michael Kors sunglasses with MIK instead of MK... I was thinking it's nearly perfect, just one letter is missing.

This weekend me and my parents visited my grandparents at their cottage and I had to notice my grandpa's shampoo in the bathroom...

@Mikasister The first one is really on point, even the font is the same... Coincidence?

Those little joys like watching a part of Mika's performance of Relax from last night and just after that spontaneously turning on the radio and hearing the first notes of Relax playing there...
(I know it's not a big thing to hear Relax on the radio but in that moment it felt just magical. ❤️)
-
Time to change the background and the lock screen of my phone to a more current Mika pic...
-
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!

Today I got the I Love Beirut T-shirt!
I've ordered small but it's the biggest small size I've ever seen...
But that's fine. Better than too small.

@giraffeandy good... I don't have mine, they don't want me to buy the t shirt.. but i watch the concert

Today I got the idea to create this kind of fan art... Well, it's not perfect, I wasn't even sure if I should share it here to be honest. Maybe I'll try again later to make a better version. But it's inspired by the song Hurts. It reminds me of the time when I was younger and most of my schoolmates hated me for no reason. They made fun of me and I was too shy to defend myself. They called me weird, stupid etc. and even though I didn't believe them, it felt exactly like this...like having these words pinned into the heart with knives.
I'm not even sure if anybody else can relate this to the song because it's quite personal. However, there's no other place to post it than here...

I always had the problem that I didn't really fit anywhere but fortunately I always had at least one good friend so I've never been completely alone... I'm really grateful for that. I'm not good at making friends but on the other hand it's better to have a few friends you can really trust and be yourself than a lot of fake friends.
-
-
I agree with you. I haven't got lots of friends but they are true. It's the most important.
I haven't got lots of friends because I want to stay natural, and many people don't accept people like that. It's sad... Now, we have to be like others. Fortunately, there are exceptions.

Today I had a dream. I got an email from a concert promoter with a link. And on the website I found out that there will be a concert of Mika in my country. But the weird thing was that the concert wasn't in Prague but in Pardubice... Which is strange because even though it's one of the bigger cities here (the 10th biggest apparently), it's still quite small for such a concert. And there's no music festival and I've actually never been there. So I guess this dream won't come true...
But it was a nice feeling for a moment.

Today I had a terrible nightmare... One of those that feels so real!
It was about Mika being on an event with about 50 other famous people on a boat. Then the boat got lost and people were assuming it sank for some reason. I felt so miserable in the dream, I even cried, then I woke up and was so relieved it's not true but I think I will need a while till I get rid of that bad feeling... Luckily Mika won't be on a boat anytime soon.

@Starlight Yes, I have no idea why my brain came up with such a horrible story, I usually have rather good or neutral dreams thanks god! But I guess maybe the whole situation now produce some negative feelings that your brain proceeds at night... I don't know but it was by far the worst nightmare I had lately, I hope it was the last one too.
-
@Mikasister Yeah, the reality is a nightmare already...
Even though it's hard, I think it's a good idea, it's better to be safe than sorry...
Btw, the night before I had a dream I made it to Mallorca (I should have spent two weeks in July over there) but I had to take a bus, a boat, a train and I think one another vehicle because the planes didn't fly... The virus was still a topic but it wasn't as bad anymore. Not the greatest dream ever but at least much better than the one I dreamed tonight...
-
@giraffeandy That's true... all that is happening now is a nightmare...
@Mikasister A good idea... safety is so important at the moment...

Today I've been with my best friend in our favourite café (it's mainly a gelateria but this time we had waffles
). They always have an Italian radio on, probably streaming it online. We've been talking and I didn't pay as much attention to the music but suddenly I heard Tomorrow! It made me so happy and I couldn't listen to my poor best friend telling me a story because of Mika singing in the background... - Show previous comments 1 more

@Mikasister But I felt so bad for her, she was telling me something and I had no idea what's going on because I was so distracted but I had to nod anyway even though I didn't understand what she was saying...

@Prisca I've never used it before and don't know why is it here but I found it fitting.

Today Pilot Pen CZ posted on FB a birthday competition – you should make a birthday card for their anniversary and in two weeks they'll choose 3 winners with the most original cards. However, they didn't mention what exactly the prizes are. I really hope you can win the gift packs as they promised me before on messenger because I'm going to create the best birthday card ever (and I'd be quite dissapointed if I'd realize I'm competing for anything else)...

Tonight I had a dream that Mika announced some new tour dates and he was coming to my city... I was so excited.

@giraffeandy good luck

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.

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.
So I've chosen Love Today.
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 
but could you send me the link? I will check how does it open or if it'll open
