A. Clay Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Per translation tool dictionary.com Mouth of angel quickly learns its trade from star. Since its passage to Winterthour in November, the show of the wonder the pop one gained in maturity. And from now on, a crowd of 35 ' 000 people does not frighten him any more. “To receive that for my second passage in Switzerland, it is enormous. Thank you Paléo!” To pass, in the same round of a skating rink of 5000 people to the Large Scene of most beautiful Open Air of Europe (if, if…), it is enormous indeed. And for the little story, Mika was to come to St-Gall last summer, where he would have sung on a scene of the size of the Club Tent de Paléo. Some troubles of health enabled him to jump this stage. But the anecdote recalls how much success was fast. After all, when one sold more than four million albums, that one is the first artist to gain three World Music Awards the same year and that one passed in loop on all the radios, it is normal to bring together 35 ' 000 people won over to your cause. Still is necessary it to know to speak to them. Here Mika, who has already the beauty of fauna, the three octaves and half of tessiture and the talent of the songwriter has still an asset: perfect French somebody who passed half of his childhood to Paris. With Juste the point of accent british which gives him its charm. That happiness As in Winterthour, the concert starts and ends in “Relaxed, take it easy”. And as of the first measurements of this genuine proclamation of vocal virtuosity, Paléo is conquered. The months of round allowed the spectacle of rôder. Exit certain heavinesses baroques, like the angel of the beginning (on the other hand, the goldbeater's skin of “Big girls” is always there), and places at a better communication with the public. Public which one does not see the every day époumoner with as much of heat. Logic: this music gives desire for singing, for running, for jumping. That which forever fredonné of Mika under his shower comes to say the opposite. And when the star makes hop crowd on “Lollipop”, the movement does not remain not confined with the square of agitated first ranks, but is propagated until the ends of the ground. That happiness, one says to you. With these songs which in eighteen months hardly already became of the traditional ones. Traditional that their author does not hesitate to revisit, adding a station-wagon by-Ci, a solo of guitar by-there and a number of clappers in the medium. Beside the key periods of the repertory which are “Coils today”, “Happy endings” or “Stuck in the middle”, “Grace Kelly” finds the choice place which it deserves. Mika is not satisfied any more to dispatch it with the piano, but concentrates all his energy on this incredible vocal climbing which made much to ensure its fame. And puisque' it is in Romandie, it will rechantera it even with the second recall. With the piano, without orchestra and… in French in the text. As it has just done it in its round through France. Paléo adored Mika and Mika seems to have adored Paléo. Is this the beginning of a long connection, as certain artists maintain some with the festival, or should it already be provided that the next time, the star will have passed in the category of “too large for Nyon because they turn in the stages”? The history will judge. Justice is made While waiting for - and before Mika - Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay judged. Judged that Paléo deserved an insane concert well, like all those which this electro duet French, more known under the name of Justice, has given for a few years. In the shade of the cross which one finds on their album (a little megalomania, fortunately tinted amount necessary of autodérision…), the two accomplices seem all the more calm as the sounds that they triturate let burst their merry exubérance. That goes from heaviness entêtante of synthés to the take-off of a traditional arpeggio of guitar, while passing by the fishing of a good-natured riff of hardware or the arabesques of voice, all the more rich as electronics authorizes all the mixtures and all arrangements. Larger buzz Internet of the year 2007, the association of these two former graphic designers made to Justice the French group which is sold best abroad since Daft Punk. Logic, Justice is new Daft Punk. Everyone says it. swissinfo, Marc-Andre Miserez in Paléo THIS THURSDAY WITH THE PALÉO Dub Inc., Tiken Jah Fakoly, Manu Chao, Moonraisers, Asa, Seun Kuti, Brazil at the Village of the World and the Turning, Chapter, Tshaka Junior and Asher Selector. 1000 TICKETS “LAST MINUTE” As that has been the case for a few years, Paléo Festival (of the 22 at July 27) is played closed counters. No ticket is sold on the spot, but the organizers spend 1000 per day of them on sale the morning even, on the site of the festival (paleo.ch) and in the sales outlets ticketcorner.
