HelloKitty Lucy Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 me too!! A new cover would be great! a sexy one,please... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruth Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I'd love an album or e.p. of new covers. Fun ones like Hips Don't Lie but not the ones we already know. It would tide us on till the real second album. And songs sung in French too; just simple ballads, lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iadoremika Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Haha...I love the "Hips Don't Lie Cover" I was also fantisizing about Mika doing a cover of "Hallelujah"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll post it when I.. remember... I should go to bed now maybe. Goodnight! School Tomojow...Chao! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Sky Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I think Mika sometimes sings the covers better than the original singer. In my opinion Satellite, Everybody's Talking, Missionary Man and Teardrop go in that category. And I liked his Beth Ditto duet at the Brits. Getting her some UK exposure at the same time!!

I think the original of that song is waaaaaay better. Mika's voice just didn't sound that well in that one, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazy_daisy Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 My fave cover is, definitely, 'Everybody's Talking'. I so love it! Could spend hours listening to it (in fact, I do each time I watch the DVD, lol). The second one is 'I've got life'. His voice sounds amazing on that one. It makes my hairs stand on end, haha. Until now, I've liked every cover Mika has done. As someone pointed out earlier, I often feel Mika's versions of the songs are much better than the original interpretations. Wonder why.

He always adds his how flavour (a nice flavour hehe) to the songs. Sometimes making them less...how do I say this...boring and just plain better to listen to...

Sometimes making them less...how do I say this...boring and just plain better to listen to... Yes! I completely agree. I mean... of course, I respect the interpreters of the original songs and their versions. They've done a great job, but Mika's touch makes the songs special, for some reason. (Maybe because I love his voice and his energy? LOL). I realized this when I first listened to his version of 'I want you back'. When Mika sings that song, there's a special vibe floating in the air which is not in the original song. (Haha! I know some people who would kill for saying this).

I know that some people don't like his version of "I Want You Back" but I kind of like it... Oh my goodness I just thought of some ideas for covers that Mika should do, just for kicks: "These Boots Are Made for Waling" by Nancy Sinatra "Step by Step" by New Kids on the Block "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston (though I would like to see how that one would actually turn out...)
