lollipop_monkey Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Thanks to Mika's latest epic video blog, we're starting to have something of an idea as to the songs on the new album. So I ask - of the songs we know about, which one are you most excited to hear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soaring Simpson Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Difficult decision between clapclap and rain, but the clapping song's more fun and more different from his other stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinghorse83 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Oh, although they all sound FANTASTIC, more than anything I can't wait to hear How much Do You Love Me. I've never seen mika live so i've only heard recordings of it on people's phones etc, but it still made me cry. the lyrics give me shivers and tie in so closely to a personal experience in my life.

Blue Sky Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Mana we need the option of ALL.!!! Never thought I would vote for Rain. But I did. The feeling from it was very good....now if he has fixed those Elvis lyrics and that whiny chorus I will be very VERY happy. But the violinist alien bit did it for me.

nico_collard Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I'm looking forward to the clap clap song... And I'm even looking forward to hearing what Rain sounds like when it's finished... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sariflor Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 It was a tough decision, but I ended up voting for the 'clapclap' song...Because I just love how it goes, and it's totally new....But I will like them all I am sure now!! I love how Rain is sounding, and the choir singing 'naughty' things Also, I know that he kept saying about HMDYLM, but are we sure that it will make the album in the end? I guess that we shall see. Whenever it comes out that is. I WANT IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAK1 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I really love the new version of Rain, but the percussionist in me is going for The Clap Clap song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilek Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Also, I know that he kept saying about HMDYLM, but are we sure that it will make the album in the end? I guess that we shall see. well given to the changes on "rain" ,HMDYLM might end up something totally different like: HMDYNM (how much do you need me), HMGHYBTF (how many gigs have you been this far), HBDYTIG (how big do you think i'll get) or HMTCICTT (how many times can i change this title) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember one gig where Mika seemed to be taking longer than usual to come on for this one and they just kept playing the jingly jangly music (technical term) at the beginning and it sounded great. I think a bit of Greg's magic on this one and it would be a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a bit of Greg's magic on this one and it would be a winner. Did you not think the new rain even sounded like a sort of compilation between the orginal rain and the early HMDYLM?? No?? It was the jingly jangly similarity (to borrow your tech term) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the jingly jangly similarity (to borrow your tech term) Possibly, but I could deal with two jingly jangly songs on one album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilek Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 i like the choir singing bit the most it sounded so good. also loved the clap song's tune and lyrics and rhytm:wub2: as you can tell i'm still not a huge fan of rain:naughty:,but it sure changed a looot and now it sounds much better (imo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musicfreak Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I looove the new rain version, but i just hope he also adds the acoustic version because it's so beautiful, i think the two versions are so opposite, one's a dance song while the other is a crying song:bleh: The Clap Clap song will be so much fun i can't wait!

Christine Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Oh gawd I can't decide I am excited about Rain because hearing this version is like waking up from some horrible nightmare to find out that everything is still all right with the world. And I think it's going to be a huge hit in the UK with a dozen remixes. But the clap clap song is a lot of fun and I can see it being a real crowd pleaser at the gigs.

vixenbbw Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Has Holy Johnny been forgotten about??? Anyways, I voted for the claping song as I loved the Samba rhythm it has and in turn the effect it had on Mika....his little sitting down dance was pricelss!! He's just so loverly......:wub2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixenbbw Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Hmmmm.....was just thinking about how HMDYLM sounds very 'tinkley belled' and exotic which will sit well with both Rain and the Claping song.....add in the gospel choir and it's an all together different sound than I was expecting (I was sure he'd go really off the wall !! ) much more grown up (I said this the other day too!) and with wider appeal.

sofimica3212 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Although I did love everything I heard, my favorite was the Clap Clap Song, its sounded so good! I loved when he put the words to it, I have the part of him saying "he's got money in the bank..." in my head! I can't wait much longer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinghorse83 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Really? When did he say that? during several of his concerts, he said 'this song isn't going going to be on my album anymore, but i find it fun to play live." i think especially since its already been on two DVDs it really can't be put on a album.

Has Holy Johnny been forgotten about??? Again, I think it's had too much exposure to go on the album... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
