Hero

Oh I loved the Carcassonne gig last year, fantastic venue and atmosphere! 😍🎉

Hi all - just a reminder, as Deb said previously, we don't sell tickets here.

If you say you are selling tickets it risks the forum getting into legal trouble - so don't do it please! 

You can say you have spares, and to pm if interested.

Ok but I'll keep translating while cleaning and singing with @Hero and Mika

 

While I've got you... a little bit off topic but kind of related... I've noticed he often condenses words, like j'suis instead of je suis, or j'ai pas instead of je n'ai pas. Is that commonplace in modern French, or is it just heard in songs? Or is it a Mika-ism? 

My old French teacher would have had a fit if we'd tried that in class!

Here is my human translation

 

TOUCH TOUCH

I'm only waiting for one thing tonight
That you get close to me in the dark
That you look at me
I'm only waiting for this tonight

Take my hand for a slow dance
Move your hand on my back
And take me to any place
As long as I fall on my knees

A bullet right in the heart
That's beautiful in the heart of summer
You shot
You touched me

Touch Touch Touch Touch Touch
The tip of your mouth touched me
Your mouth touched  me
And you touch touch touch ? Touch

Tell me
What do you want?
Me I want you
For me
What do you want?

I wasn't there uphazardly
I'm fed up with my life
Something had to happen
Something had to break the ice
Even if we're not alone
If the others are rolling their eyes
Kiss me as much as you want
Never mind if they are envious

That's pretty much what I got! *Proud moment* 

"And take me to any place"...

or "take me anywhere"? There's a small but possibly crucial difference in English... 

"I wasn't there uphazardly" - that's not a word in English, it would be haphazardly. Meaning "I wasn't there by chance". 

So, Google translate has some catching up to do...

Mel looking concerned. Amira so over it.

Look at all the instruments for Je sais que je t'aime!

I saw that, all the strings!  He really did go all out for the 'big sound' he wanted.

From what I know, when someone asked him the meaning of MF, he didn't want to answer. Then that fan asked him if it's "My Fans" and he looked surprised and said something like "Yeah sure"   So judging by his reaction, we can be sure it's not the real meaning 

It could be 'Mes Fesses'. 

I mean, Mika travels the world the way we go to the shops, why are we surprised that his merch does the same?? 

New thread with evidence!  

I feel we should link to this thread too:

Bougez officially made it from one of my least favourite songs to my top 5! 

Same! I wasn't sold on the snippet, but my god I was wrong, what a track!

There's still no news as to when more shipping destinations will be added to the French store (if at all). If your wanting the CD or vinyl then the UK store does ship to Austria.

Wait, the France store doesn't ship to Austria? I thought they'd at least cover the EU area. I really can't get my head around all these differences!

If I remember rightly you're in Mexico right? Both the UK and French Mika store ship there.

 

UK store still has limited edition blue vinyl for sale and standard black vinyl here:

French store only has the black vinyl for sale, all signed vinyls are now out of stock:

 

https://mika.store/

 

This website has the limited vinyl with stickers and has more shipping destinations too:

Hope that helps 😊

The music company should be paying you admin fees for keeping track of it all!

I was just informed the lyrics are all on youtube

Where? I found one 'transcript' that translated as it played, but not the original lyrics. And now I don't even see the transcript option.

Mika fans during "Bougez" 

 

 

We wish we were that coordinated!  

After that performance, it's living rent-free in my head, and I'm not complaining!

Please note there might be so grammar or spelling mistakes as I have never been good at writing in my own language part of why I learnt another 🤣

That's as good a reason as any!

Oh my god, I needed that so much! Fantastic! I didn't realise it was a mix of old and new, good to see how it might work for the tour. He was so energised! And his voice, beautifully mellow and rounded, with a particular softness in the French songs. I get shivers from his lower register. ❤️❤️❤️
