BVS Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Ok, i think Mika is the greatest ever, no words can describe his uniqueness and greatness, but i want to know why at his gigs and performances( ie MTV EMAs) he his performing with a backup singer. he doesnt need another singer on stage backing his singing up! who was the woman with blue hair who he peformed with at the EMAs and whos the woman in the kinda ra-ra girl outfit at his concerts (i have seen her in some gig photos)? Also, at the EMAs i think that his performance was absolutely astonishing and admirable (is that a word?), like he himself and his band gave an amazing peformance, but i didnt understand why he had the massive puppet(that was also great, i loved it) and the dancers in the masks and stripy jumpsuits and the half naked woman dancing around and the woman with the blue hair. personally i dont think that he needed all of this and i dont think that this was Mika at all or it wasnt one of the best performances! Sorry, i just needed a little moment and rant, and to see if other people felt the same or could help answer my questions. i mean sure enough im a massive fan of Mika, but i dont have to love everthing he does, do i? i know this is long but i needed to get it off my chest. Mika is you read this i would like to let you know that just because you didnt win any awards doesnt mean your not great, you do have the most addictive track of the year and you are the greatest solo artist of the year as well, you dont need an award to prove that your the greatest person and musician ever invented in the history of music, you still have all of your fans that will stick with you throughout your entire career and beyond (lol) and dont forget you are constanty gaining new fans!!!!!! (please tell me if im being harsh or horrible, its just how i feel) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BVS Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 oh right, ok i really dont mean to be harsh or horrible to mika or saranyade at all, she was quite a good singer though i must admit but i just prefer mika by himself. do you know whether she isngs with Mika in all of his songs at his gigs or just a few? (im asking a lot of questions about her, so maybe ill be able to grow to like her, if you know what i mean?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babspanky Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hello BVS! You have obviously missed the thread where we first discovered Sara or Saraynade or smt. She is indeed Mika's new backing singer, and after her appearance at the first gig of the current European tour a thread was opened basically saying what you are saying. Then it got a little ugly and personal so the thread was pulled. So it went like this. We hate her. People told off and explained how it is Mika's decision how he runs his show. We love her. Thread pulled. There is now a thread for her somewhere on the forum. I haven't seen her myself, so am waiting to make up my mind. I did think the EMA performance was cracking though and I enjoyed the band and the lollipop girls and dancers etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avoca Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 she's his backsinger, so she's on every time the song requires it. i don't have a problem with her. she's kind, cute, nice and does her job very well, like the rest of the band. she's also got an amazing voice, no doubt about it. o.c. I prefer mika, but many mfc'ers fancy some band members almost better than mika and there's nothing wrong with it. as well as it's perfectly fine to fancy mika above all the others. it's a free world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he has her as a backing singer now though, and she is a fixture, whatever the song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotions were running high. People don't like change I guess. Everyone seems to have accepted her to some degree now, though. ( But we don't have to like her if we don't want to! Wait until we have seen her live, and I will meet you back here to compare notes! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vixenbbw Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 RSB = The Royal Sympathy Band You can find them playing on the inside of the LICM sleeve! When you say the EMA performance was not very Mika I think it was totally Mika and a vision of the future. As the record company pump more money into the tours he will make his shows more and more elaberate to the point where he has the RSB, a gossip choir, a childrens choir, Billy Brown......in addition to the charaters we already have like the big girls and lollipop girls on every night. His costume changes are getting more frequent too! From the first gig I saw in February where he wore black jeans and a white shirt with a plain black stage, no animal costumes and only the lollipop girls at the end you can see the changes literally before your eyes! There is soooooo much more to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Ok, again i dont mean to be harsh ort horrible, i understnad what your sayinga nd yeah she is pretty good but i just dont understand why Mika even needs a backup singer. I think he does need a backup singer because he and others did a lot of backing vocals on his tracks and in order to replicate it on stage he has been using playback. I'd rather he use a backup singer than pre-recorded tracks. I know everyone loves the band but they aren't powerful enough to support Mika's vocals IMO. Happy Ending wouldn't work at all without another singer and since Lorna is no longer available he had to use someone else. I'm surprised you even noticed Sara at the EMAs because she was very much in the background. Someone mentioned her blue fringe and I had to go back and watch it again because I didn't even know she was there. I think he just used her because, as everyone else said, she's now a fixture in the band and he seemed to have brought as many bodies as he possibly could find to fill that huge stage. Personally I loved the EMA and I think it's very Mika. The bigger Mika's stage gets the bigger his show gets. I think that's been his plan all along, he's just been waiting for the resources and the opportunities to come together. But of course you do not have to agree with everything Mika does. Nothing wrong with voicing another opinion. Btw whats Rsb (is that a stupid question) Royal Sympathy Band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BVS Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 Arrrrrrr right, i get it now. yeah i love the royal symphony band. yeah it does give more *punch* to the song, you are right. cool i find it really intersting ot hear other peoples opinions cool thanks for letting me know about things to come and maybe some more. lol. i love his outfits!!!!!!!!!!!!
