racinghorse83 Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Oh and also,I found a few times in the songbooks/intenet lyrics some really ridiculous mistakes...which Mika doesn't sing that way for sure. i dont even bother with the lyrics online. theyre just random people writing whatever they think they hear. they DO come out with the most rediculous things.

racinghorse83 Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 he knows her name becasue she would come up to him and his buddies trying to get work, and they would say "hows carolina today? got work?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLight Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 just thought i'd post this don't know if you've seen it or not?? So your songs tell some pretty mad stories. Are they real? Some of them are real and some of them are hyped-up reality based on bits of truth. Bits are autobiographical. I’m working on the ‘Love Today’ video at the moment and the whole concept for it is a story of a hooker who’s too old and she never gets picked up. We called her Carolina and every night we would check out if Carolina got some business. Then there’s another story of this little girl who comes from a middle class family and then as soon as her parents …Anyway there are always these little stories and in the video it’s… I don’t even know what I’m saying… In the video we’re talking about all these stories, whether you’re a hooker or a guy who can’t get laid and you get depressed or whether you’re a girl who lives a secret life from her parents and who is insanely horny and slutty. Everyone is exactly the same and we’re all just trying to get the same things just in different ways. I wish I knew the point I was trying to make! it's from here.. http://www.me-me-me.tv/2007/01/18/mika/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevermika Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 On Love Today, I always thought it was the words in the CD booklet, but I did notice the "never stood on my own two feet feet" thing. Maybe its on purpose, possibly a play on the sung words "two feet." But doesn't it almost seem like a typo? I wonder if anyone else noticed this in that booklet, on the last page where the credits are for Grace Kelly: Keyboards/Background Vocals: MIKA Drums: Greg Wells Guitar: Lyle Workman, Greg Wells Greg's last name was accidently bolded.

purplegrape Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 in LIVE in cartoon motion it sounds like "hey girl why can't you carry on? is it cause you're just liiiike your mother? little tight, like to tease for fun? well you ain't gonna tease no... or they're gonna make you.. A LOVER!!" etc and he talks about why he wrote parts of love today in this video. (from 5:11 to 6:00) it might explain a bit yeah, if you listen, i'm pretty sure its "it's really not such a sacrifIIIIIIICEE!!!!" I love that you type them the way he sings them it was a written thing... I'm skeptical about most written interviews unless it's for a known company or magazine. But , i can imagine what hook her book her nook her walk away could mean I could easily see Mika saying just that. (the fck her thing) Carolina is a prostitute. I-95 is a highway that runs down the East Coast of the United States. Mika used to see her when he was recording in Florida. I though I had bumped into her once or twice around here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally i think all of these little quirky mistakes just make it so much better. more real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
