  1. Does anyone know where the Happy House is in London? Tried googling it but there's a load of takeaways with the same name and a hotel! I love going to London and would love to find this shop next time I'm there, hopefully early Summer this year.
  2. Bought another Mika poster and this time I remembered to check the measurements before paying! This one is 10" across, rather than 20" like the last one! Had my eye on another two which I've already bought, at this rate I'm going to have to find a new wall to put them on! 😄

      Four walls are not enough? :naughty:

      For Mika posters and pictures? Nope. 😁

      In a way I only have one wall I can use in my  room, my bedroom is in the attic so the side walls are slightly slanted, one wall has my bed and wardrobe against it so my poster wall is the one near the staircase. May have to use a wall somewhere else in the house...

  3. Love Today was played at the start of Hollyoaks today! But it's really annoying when the characters talk over the song, I was enjoying it too much! I'll try and get a video unless someone else shares it first 😊 *edit* Can't seem to find a video yet Hollyoaks is my favourite soap, I often hear Mika's tracks in it.
  4. Is there a thread for when Mika did Radio 1 Big Weekend in Preston? I was there but I wasn't allowed to take a camera (I was quite young so my mum took photos on her phone), I would love to see if I can spot myself in other people's pictures!
  5. I don't have one favourite song, nor do I have one favourite song from each album, but there are songs that mean a lot to me. Here goes: LICM: Lollipop, Love Today TBWKTM: Blue Eyes TOOL: Kids, Make You Happy, Heroes NPIH: Staring at the Sun, Rio, Porcelain MNIMH: Tiny Love, Ice Cream, Sanremo (the video especially!), Dear Jealousy, Reprise Maybe one day I'll explain why these songs relate to me so much, listening to them is like therapy.
  6. I have now switched my Home Page to MFC, this site is quickly becoming more addictive every day, especially since the yearbook announcement!

  7. Mika is in London! I need to know why, is it to book another gig? Will he come further north and meet me? Can we have coffee together? Please Mika announce that you're doing something here soon! I miss you! I might be getting my hopes up but I can't help getting excited! Also congratulations on the award!
  8. My own misheard lyrics: Here's a lady on the line, give her a daughter... When it's actually: Carolina sits on 95, give her a dollar... Also: There's a really pompous man, pompous man... Actual lyrics: Girl in the blue with the big bust on, big bust on... Yeah I don't know how got them so wrong either ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  9. I've seen a few posts on twitter where people have got there t-shirt/hoodie order. So it looks like clothing items are being dispatched more now. And yet mine as still not arrived... A friend who makes bags and has to order from China has told me that her manufacturer has started production again in the last couple of days, so I'm hopeful that the factory that makes the Mika badge sets will be up and running soon.
  10. Something lyrical I wanted to try. Took a while to get it right 😅 
    Brownie points to anyone who can match the lyrics to the songs!

     

    Making movies in my head, making Hollywood look,
    Tiny love has spoken and bigger,
    Hearts, staring at the 
    Sun and the light, you are the,
    Freedom to leave, well now,
    Enough is enough, 
    Dear wife I have to,
    Leave, if we're strangers,
    By the seaside, drinking
    Up, must come down, I
    Learned to grow, could we make it,
    Better get back, cause I'm,
    Ready to call this love.

  11. How does he do this stance right on the tips of his toes? 😐 I've only ever done that while wearing ballet pointe shoes, and that's difficult enough!
  12. @giraffeandy I ordered my copy from Amazon UK, £12, they don't charge until dispatch. There's also these 2 websites, the first one for definite does international shipping coming from the UK but I'm not too sure about the second one: https://www.fiveriserecords.co.uk/product/christine-and-the-queens-la-vita-nuova/ https://www.normanrecords.com/records/180685-christine-and-the-queens-la-vita-nuova
  13. I've ordered some Chris merch, which includes pin badges. PIN BADGES! 😍 Can someone get onto Mika's management and ask for pin badges too? I've been collecting badges for years, haven't counted them all but it's going to be close to 200! Also the date of dispatch for my order made me laugh; it says June 21th.
  14. The jealousy syringe would make a good tattoo, especially if it looked like it was actually going into the skin! Also very colourful!
  15. I'm getting a Mika tattoo too, but it's really personal so I'll probably only post about it once it's done. If you like brightly coloured tattoos then maybe LICM album art, it's full of colour! TBWKTM has some interesting cover art too. In the OOL album booklet there seems to be art for most tracks, which I think Mika designed himself, so if you have a favourite song from that album maybe pick a track and design your own interpretation of it! NPIH has a very bold cover and the songs are certainly deeper for Mika, I think that's why the photos in the album are in black and white but there's not much art work I think. Then of course there's MNIMH, the album cover alone would make an awesome tattoo! There's also little things that may represent Mika quite well. Like a dove (even though that's his sister), lollipop girl, the naked man for Boum Boum Boum or even the crying moon. Maybe pick one of his albums and go from there. 😊
  16. Already pre-ordered my copy. I wonder if Mika's EP project will be similar to what Chris has done 🤔. She's doing an intimate gig at The Moth Club London next month which has already sold out. If it was later in the year I would have considered going. Still hoping she does a full tour again next year.
  17. Sadly the store is the only official one online, unless you're lucky enough to find things on eBay. I've bought too much stuff to cancel now. Customer service are lucky I'm a patient person. Also, tax/duty can't be for everything surely? I got a poster recently from the US, more than £15, no extra charges and delivered by Royal Mail. This is all very strange 😦
  18. Is this the one with Mika's face on? This did have a colour change, it was originally grey but is now black.
  19. The whole of La Vita Nouva by Christine and the Queens!
  20. @Hyaku I haven’t received anything yet, not even another email. I'm also in the UK and also thought the items came from Europe. When the Tiny Love Tiny Tour merch was on sale I ordered a lot then which took around 3 weeks to arrive, didn't have to pay any import charges then. I really hope I don't have to pay any this time! Also last time, even though I ordered a bunch of stuff together, so shipping was combined, I got sent two separate packages. Found this quite annoying actually as I thought one item had got lost!
  21. Aaaaaaaaaaaaah! I... I am feeling things. So many things. This is beautiful. I love her. I've watched this about 5 times now. I think I need a lie down. Is she psychic? Does she know how much I love horror (I love dark monster horror so much!), how much I love French music, how much I love her? I'm just so excited right now. You wait till I see her live, I won't stop talking about it... Thank you Chris for this.
  22. In a recent interview Mika did in Australia (it's in the Australian press thread if you want to find it) he said the Toyota caboose would eventually be broken up once his book is published and pieces of it will be given away in relic boxes. If this actually happens can we set up a group to put the car back together again, like a giant jigsaw puzzle? I think that would be hilarious!

  23. Mum rang while I was on the bus. I must have left my phone volume up from this morning when I was listening to Mika so it was loud. I'm struggling to find my phone out of my bag. My ring tone is Tomorrow. I'll let you guess what word the song got to before I answered 😳 

    Old lady across from me wasn't pleased...
