We've heard just a snippet but I really love it already! Simply love at first note ❤️

maybe he's considerate towards people behind him who would only see his hair the entire concert 

Oh, but what a lovely view! I'd pay for that. 

Me too, I would even consider such place a VIP experience 

But he might choose such places intentionally, you know, to be unnoticed and invisible.

H..He..Help.... HELP ME! Think I'm about to melt!

 

 

 

How I feel you! Funny thing is that I've got the exact same screenshots 🫢🤣❤️

I believe this belongs here 

And moreover, this place seems to be undeservedly neglected for a long time! 😄❤️

Or maybe Mika will put the stage in the middle???

That would be epic in this venue! 

I'm just wondering about the existing tickets - those were all standing tickets, so will people with those tickets be able to choose seated/standing, or...? Like, I don't really care, I want to stand anyway, I'm just curious 

I mean, it's of course great news for Mika and I'm happy for him ❤️ But at the same time I was sort of happy about the concert in a smaller, more intimate venue 

After the very first listen, I wasn't sure what to think. But after the third listen, I was already humming "libre, libre, libre comme l'air, vivre, vivre, vivre a ma maniere" and that "la-la-la" part and moving to the rhythm so yeah, I really like the song and it's definitely an ear worm!

Mika, after watching a few of them "Ok I wish I hadn't said that it doesn't matter whether they speak French or can sing "

Oh yeah, the regrets... 

And you're right, it's true that they required horizontal videos, so we'll see if there's anything else coming  

Hmmm, so it seems we weren't supposed to sing after all

Impressive room, but a bit cold for my tastes. Nice to see him relaxing.  But does anyone else get the feeling he's been told to go sit down and stop interfering in the kitchen? 

Not until now. But now, it's the only possible explanation of him actually sitting down! 

The room looks almost castle-ish - not my cup of tea either but fitting for our King, right?

Here's the whole performance. I can't upload to YouTube because they'll take it down, obviously.

 

I loved it, he looks simply stunning, and the flowers and the choir were just beautiful. Anna called him a human disco ball and I have to agree, both literally and figuratively, he radiates light.

 

 

Stunning! Mika is the OOL again, this time the origin of LIGHT ✨

Just that thing the girls have on their heads, "c'est quoi?!

To me, it just looks like a cute little fascinator

Sigh, what a beautiful view to wake up to.  

 

Cannes is ok too, I guess.  

Yeah, Cannes outshined, sorry 🤭😍😄

Just rewatched Mika's speech he gave in the morning, now with headphones, and cried for the second time today. Then watched the latter interview and cried for the third time.
The scenes Mika described were so touching, he was so sincere. It seemed he felt more vulnerable in that school environment (for obvious reasons) 🥺
At the same time, the speech was so inpiring, and full of courage and hope. Mika has an incredible sense of empathy, he did absolutely fantastic with the kids.
Loved the story with Mika's mum entering the classroom to speak to the prof and his vivid memory of embarassement as if it was yesterday 🥺

💕 "Je vous souhaite des shorts roses" 💕

I really like how everyone's perception of the video differs, it feels somewhat enriching  
Speaking for myself, it gives me positive vibes. As Mika lies under the glitter globe, I feel like no matter how hard you're knocked down, you can still "move the (your) world", in the right direction and desired speed.
Similarly with the scene with the fire behind the curtain - Mika comes out of there, strong, like a phoenix if you will.
The scene where he's being covered with the white paint - it looks a little bit like concrete to me - and again, even if it's hard, you can move your body and keep going.
In this golden scene, he seems fragile in the beginning, as if lacking love, but then again, he bursts into dance. 
Overall, to me, the video is packed with sensual, positive and hopeful atmosphere 🧡

I might be totally off, but that's just how the video and the song speak to me

Mmmmmm.... I think I'll have the one in the red suit, the one right there who seems to be staring into space

Now that's a good choice!

Did you actually see this? I completely missed it. Didn't get a notification, damnit Instagram!

I saw it but I'm not really sure what I saw - it was too quick and I didn't know what to watch first - the video, the live - apparently my two-screening skills suck!

I mean, the whole video should be here, every single scene is lit 🔥❤️

Just now, Hero said:

Tousled and stubbly...

Oh noo it just occurred to me yesterday that it's unclear what he meant. I did assume he meant today at midnight as well but wasn't 100% sure so rushed to finish it yesterday. I should have expressed my doubts here!!

Same! But then I thought it's just (stupid) me and that it's apparently clear to everyone else

Good luck to those of you who got your videos in!

 

Seems like when they said "2 November at midnight" they meant 11:59:59pm November 1st -- folks trying to send in now are getting a "Promotion Has Ended" message. That's a shame.

Honestly, it crossed my mind that they might actually mean midnight on the preceding day... It's a pity, they should have been clearer, so sorry for everyone not being able to submit their video 😢

Finally sent my video too 

Hope Mika won't suffer too much!

finally, video sent! 😅 I got a bit, um, creative with the editing, maybe I did too much but I found it boring to just watch myself singing into the camera for 3 minutes.  It probably wouldn't have mattered because they would only use short clips of each video anyway, but well... I'll see if they can use anything of what I sent.

Congrats and fingers crossed for you!  

I've been waiting if the list of countries gets updated but it seems I eventually have to become German for the purpose of the submission  It seems unlikely they're gonna fix this last minute I guess...

I've got the video ready too, and thinking whether to send it - my head keeps playing me this scene of Mika as a judge, pressing the red buzzer as in X Factor and saying "God no!!"

I'm not complaining and I'm not surprised or shocked, I know that's Mika 100% (although when he said he'd open his heart on this album, I thought he meant his heart and not his pants (figuratively), but well, for most men that's the same, so... 🙈 )

May I award you with the "Comment of the day" medal?
