mark0495 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hi MFCers, I wonder how many people at this forum have ever covered Mika. And I don't mean during a shower . No, I mean for REAL people, or even at YouTube! I did, today at school. That was because of our first tutor lesson: we had to tell something about ourselves, so I say I'm on a choir. The whole class is immediately yelling SING! SING! SING! at me, but I say "No". My tutor says "No, he's gonna do that further on this year". . I did it today: a cover of My Interpretation . Well, it went okay, I know I could have done better, but still it was quite nice. At least, that's what my class and tutor said about it! Who also did this once? Somebody with a Mika tribute band? Just recording it for YouTube or another video site? For just someone else without video/sound evidence? Tell!!! I wonder if I'm the only one who is so crazy!

chickadee Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Actually, there was a thread called Sing it Like Mika, where some people recorded their own versions of Mika songs and posted the links, and then out of this evolved the LICM fan CD, where some of us recorded songs off LICM to go onto a CD to give to Mika!

chickadee Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Also, did you know that there are some free karaoke tracks out there of Mika songs. There are some you have to pay for as well, but there are some free ones. There used to be a thread for it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplegrape Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I don't know about you, but I'm pretty damn good in the shower and while the music is playing so loud that I can't hear myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shikutukumimika Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I don't know about you, but I'm pretty damn good in the shower and while the music is playing so loud that I can't hear myself. Me too.. When I'm cycling home from school, with my mp3 player loud on, and I sing, it sounds pretty good. But when I look around I see much people looking at me as if I'm some alien or so.

keti Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Me too.. When I'm cycling home from school, with my mp3 player loud on, and I sing, it sounds pretty good. But when I look around I see much people looking at me as if I'm some alien or so. :nauy: Why does it sound so familiar Whenever I go out somewhere,I have mp3 in my ears,but i don't sing cos the whole city would think I went crazy,but I do open mouth and say the lyrics and when I'm alone in the park at night,I make a whole choreography Also,there's one big mirror in the hall of my building. Whenever I go down somewhere I stand in front of the mirror while listening to mp3 and pretend that I'm a famous singer and sing it's usually quite a great feeling,but not such a great feeling when your neighbours see you doing that and look at you like you have a dead pidgeon stuck on your head.

keti Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Oh and when talking about the quality of my singing,my mom (who used to have singing and piano lessons) said that I have a very good voice and that I sing Mika's songs great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I tried doing Grace Kelly karaoke after a few drinks one night. I developed a newfound appreciation for Mika's lung capacity. Like...wow. I thought I was going to die trying to sing that song. And, damn. Nevermind those notes! Mika's something else. And I'm thankful there's no evidence of this..."performance." I did get a vid of a friend of mine trying his hand at doing Love Today in karaoke. Maybe I'll throw that up on YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes, I covered GK last year in "the square" at school. It's this square drop in the very middle of our school where people perform and my friends' put me up to it and everyone cheered me on but they were only taking the puss. I enjoyed it as did everyone else but I wouldn't do it again becuaase I'm not great in front of 300 strong 13-16 year olds who are very scary to me when I was only 12 and a real stay inside girl x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melaniejazmin Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 when I listen to me after covering, I just wanna die : | I don't know if my speakers are a bit broken, or if i have a bad ear. Probably none of these possibilities are possible. I'm the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark0495 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe next year... my classmates have persuaded me with a petition and even threatened me(!) to get me competing our school's Unplugged music festival. Maybe MIKA? I don't know yet! Fortunately the threatening wasn't that serious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonzaboy Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I do all the time in music class. And at home. And at camps. Oh what the heck, anywhere there's an accessible piano....lol My friend and I were playing for the year tens cos we'd finished our exams, and were helping with their music exams. My year 10 friend is all like 'Play Mika!' So I do, and the majority of the class sings along! I played Grace Kelly, Lollipop and Happy Ending. I was surprised that the majority of them knew lollipop, even though it hasn't been released here in Australia! It made me very happy. =D One day I will post some stuff to youtube...
