Wow that’s pretty cool! Did they tell you anything about you being seated close to the stage? That would be awesome.- 187 replies

2023 - Mika @ Francofolies in Spa, Belgium, 20 July
holdingyourdrink replied to Mikasister's topic in Before the Show
I only see Juliette Armanet? It doesn’t seem that Mika’s show will be shown, if you look at the timetable. -

Living new experiences and deriving inspiration from them to create are two different things and processes. He recently said in an interview that he has (had) writer’s block. I suspect him being incredibly busy both last year and this year has helped him to get out of it. I’m sure it has helped his creative process, especially writing the score for Zodi et Tehu, but to actually create requires a different energy… and also a bit of peace of mind. (But I am only projecting my own process on him, this could be entirely different for him.) There is a little bit of truth in everything…
-
Since this seems to be the latest interview I think he is more up to date on the production process of it all. OR he decided that both albums come out at the same time. Because they are chapters of a story? And maybe it fits to promote both at the same time instead of consecutively? Purely speculating.
-
Whenever a tour progresses, the story and the energy of the tour just “blooms”. And also the way he speaks about it, as if it needed to blossom in his heart and mind. It’s poetic to read how he describes it compared to the way I have seen and lived it so far. It very much matches up!

I won’t be there, but I will be actually (on the opposite side of) Belgium today. To be in the same country as Mika is a rare occasion which I shall celebrate with a toast of terribly good wine (which I will only hold, because I hold drinks - I don’t actually drink them )

Aww that’s wonderful! Thank you so much for providing the translation!! He felt so embarrassed, but I think it’s because he doesn’t know how to take compliments and just giggles it away Also, it made me laugh what he said (in both English and Italian) before she started: “I hope it’s not too romantic, otherwise I will feel sick.”

If the fisherman’s forecast sounded like that I would listen to it every day I believe part of the intro is also a fisherman’s forecast, you’re right. That is new! But what he is especially referencing to in previous gigs (was it Versailles? I will have to rewatch it) is the monotone way he starts signing the song. Like a forecast.

Lovely report, Anna! But also: way to build suspense

I’ve always said to people that Mika is not cheesy at all. I hope these people did not look at his Instagram stories in the last 24 hours…- 1,743 replies

Seeing the current temperatures, I would personally go for a cocktail dress. But that is just me (and I am not even going! )- 187 replies

Aww thanks! I can see myself there I told him I didn’t have anything for him to sign, but that “we were just hanging out here” (we kind of were!) “but it’s a 2 meter drop behind us” and he said “welcome to my life “ So it’s not a 2 meter drop, but to me it certainly looks like it, I’m really really short!
