the_ringmaster Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Hello MFC'ers. I see most of you are pretty dedicated fans and I want to ask a few questions and have the answers in your personal opinions. Heads up, I know this is mentioning the unreleased demos, but this is discussing the way they are used, not the songs themselves. So moderators, can you please excuse this thread on that fact? I heard some of Mika's unreleased songs got leaked a while ago now. Who would do that, and what would be their motive? Do you think it was an attempt to sabotage Mika's career? I've noticed in various places certain people have said; 'He said we couldn't talk about them. He never said that we couldn’t listen to them and share them.' Do you agree with this statement? Do you think these songs could be used on future albums, or is it too late? Do you believe there could be any more damage control? Do many of you actually listen to these songs, or do you respect Mika's request and forget they even exist? Exactly when and where did Mika make this request, and how/when did it become a rule? Does anyone have proof of this on audio/video? I would really like detailed, honest answers. Thanks very much (: the_ringmaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika4Life13 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Uhmm... i think this is a great idea for a thread actually, something new. I don't think there is any harm in listening to them, they're amazzzzzing pieces of music, and there are some songs I don't think I'd be able to live without! It's actually selfish keeping this wonderful music from the world! On a more serious note : The person who added them to youtube or wherever, probably didn't have bad intentions, and this is actually a pretty common ordeal with musicians, as far as I'm concerned. I heard about it happening to Bono, on the news. It was a fan that could hear Bono recording music inside his house. I think Mika should try and improve a few and maybe come out with an EP while we're waiting so we don't have to feel guilty about listening to them, and the world will be able to hear some of these awesome songs. My 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soaring Simpson Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Maybe some will show up as B sides? Whenever someone (I was one) asks if maybe having these songs put on YouTube might have delayed the second album, or if these might have been the songs Mika says were finished for the second album before the first was released, they get told that they were demos for the first album, so how could they delay the second? I guess to respond to that you need to know whether you think some are better than songs on the first album. If there are no plans to use them, I can see no reason for Mika not to want us to discuss them, so I'm quite hopeful that they might appear somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
