I haven't seen anyone try to write down the English lyrics for Bougez so I thought I'd give it a go. I watched the videos from Amsterdam, Berlin and London and noticed that they all differ slightly in the verses. I wrote down a mixed version of the London and Berlin ones since I didn't understand them as well but they seem similar enough. Please feel free to correct or add what I didn't understand Amsterdam: Verse 1: My dearly beloved, we're gathered here A final ball to face our fears Now's your chance to save your souls All you gotta do is dance Verse 2: I raise my glass with you today To make a toast à votre santé To the non-believers, to the moral choir (???) That tell you never to play with fire I raise my glass with you today To make a toast à votre santé Who cares what language I may speak When I move my wings, you move your feet Bridge: Up to the gates of paradise and god, he said to me Here you're not allowed to dance, you'll rest eternally I turned him down respectfully and said I'd take my chance Cause I would rather be in hell where I can freely dance London / Berlin: Verse 1: My dearly beloved, we're gathered here A final dance to face our fears On your tvs and on the radio We hear these words to save our souls Verse 2: And we all beat from the very same drum (?) From mother earth to kingdom come So move your hands and move your feet Open your heart and let it beat I raise my glass with you today To make a toast à votre santé Who cares what language this bird may speak When I move my wings, you move your feet

Normally the DJ plays for about half an hour then 30min break then Mika Have fun!!

There‘s several people in this thread who have some. Go send them a pm!

What happened that made him so emotional then? Just the general atmosphere or anything in particular?

I moved this post here since it's from Brussels right?!

Yeah I‘d also say they‘re shirts although sleeveless, more like tank tops I think. I have a vague imagine in my head of one of them wearing it without a jacket on top although I can‘t remember who, where, when!

That‘s really interesting, I know what you mean. I mean I‘m a bit similar, I‘ve never really had big hereos even as a teenager and I don‘t really get starstruck because I just cannot see anyone as anything other than… human. But I think what Mika is saying is more along the lines of "representation is important". Seeing yourself in people who are similar to you and that showing you that there is indeed a path for you the way you are. He‘s said before that people like Rufus Wainwright showed him that there was space for him in the music industry, that he could succeed by making the music he makes. It‘s not about wishing to be like them but realizing that you are a bit like them and that‘s ok because if they‘re happy then you can be too

Is that what was happening over there???!!! I was so confused but quickly went "It's just Bea and Michelle being Bea and Michelle"

Thank you so much to everyone who baked, organized or was otherwise involved in the cake and flower project and anything else (fanaction, posters, etc). What a success!! The way Mika's face lit up when he cut the cake and discovered the rainbow inside was priceless!!!

As CJ said, yes the report button is functional as far as I'm aware. We don't get a lot of reports though. So I have an idea: Why don't you just try it out? If you want, report that post that you took a screenshot off and we'll see what happens That would be helpful for us because then we can look at the post directly. With only the screenshot, we have no idea how to even find the post. And instead of giving us detailed instructions where you found it, it's much easier to just click report! Thank you.

Ah you're right that feels like fire was slightly different. I just remembered that he had Max sing the first verse as well. On the other dates he only joined in during the chorus. And Mika even let him sing some lines on his own, the "oh my god" and "I feel cold". There's a video of it on youtube now as well: And his microphone is definitely turned up more than in the previous shows. I thought it had just sounded differently to me because well it was live. Beautiful in any case, I'd also love to hear a full Mika and Max version
