mellody Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 RE: Ear inflammation(s) ..."famous quotes revised" lol, how cute, pink and fluffy! Ha! Looking Kata up on google! I love you guys. Ok, I think Mika probably does have something like OCD, but it's a very mild form of it. It has nothing to do with gig cancellations, unless part of his OCD is that he's decided he can't go to Scandinavia for some reason... in which case, he's never going there, sorry Nordics. The only other way OCD would manifest itself in gig cancellations is if he decided that he absolutely cannot perform a gig on every 4th day of the month or something, and trust me, his management would not let him do that. --Jack but does it have to be general rules for ocd? if him leaving the room of his geography studies was due to ocd, like he said (let's just assume he wasn't bored in that interview ), that's also just a one time event. besides the rituals you mentioned, i also imagine it to be like when sometimes before going on a holiday/weekend-trip i get quite scared and think "OMG i have the feeling that if i do this, something bad will happen to me!", in this moment i think it might be intuition and i shouldn't go - but i'm able to stop myself from such thoughts... and i think if someone has ocd, it might be the same, just that they can't stop themselves from thinking like this and therefore won't go. in fact, it HAS happened to me 1 or 2 times, that i didn't book a holiday in the first place because i had a bad feeling about it (not about the holiday itself, but sth like that the plane would crash, i.e. completely irrational)... just if i already booked the holiday, the (very realistic) fear of losing all the money is stronger than the (irrational) fear of a plane-/car-crash or sth like this.

JackViolet Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 No, OCD works in patterns. Since Mika never enrolled in another degree program that had nothing to do with music, there just wasn't a chance for the pattern to repeat itself. --Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad but true ... DO YOU THINK I HAVE OCD, too??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellody Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 No, OCD works in patterns. ah ok, i didn't know that. so what i have is obviously just some other kind of madness, lol! then, um... well. i really can't understand it. cancelling switzerland but being in paris the next day, and cancelling denmark and having another concert a few hours after the cancellation. if he really is ill, he should rest and not do other concerts instead, this is just not fair to the fans who don't get to see him.

lcmlcm Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Yes, simply becoz he dun feel good.I think it is normal reason for a singer as i read a news that amy winehouse also cancel a gig before a few hours ago becoz of sick... if he is not in good state, this will affect his performance. This will bring a lot of critics as he is supposed to sing well.... as the 810 thing...simply because of wrong timing.. i dun agree that cancel the gig means it is not important to him or he is not important to the gig, it's just wrong timing. because he and his company didn't expect everything's getting successful so fast! He come to different countries , some big(jp/france), some small (hongkong) not related to what 'important' countries mean:punk: I think the real reason is that he is really tired and he needs to calm down a little bit!!What Kata means ?

Yoppappop Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 You have to be honest with yourselves, Nordics... You're not really what we could call "warm and welcoming" countries His planning sucks, and that's certainly not because of OCD.

Okay, this thread is a joke... it's not about actually trying to figure out why or what. I mean, I am not saying that I honestly think he has an allergy to Kata or something. The real reason? It's pretty simple. He's overbooked, and we all know it (and exhausted too), so now they're cancelling whatever shows his management thinks he can spare. I just think it sucks for the Nordics that it always ends up being their shows that are cancelled. --Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tours are quite safe, unless he "really" has something, and so the concert would be rescheduled for sure with the same tickets still valid.
