CazGirl Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Btw, yes, I DO "left me in Georgia" exactly the way you're imagining. This song has a LOT of prostitution imagery (see, maybe the stripper was quite in line with his new direction)! Ie, "heart of gold" is usually used for hookers. The idea of people who can be picked up, used as "playthings," and then put away definitely goes along with that too. And not to mention the "rental" line... "rent boys" anybody? Plus you know, toy boy/ boy toy, etc etc. --Jack Really? I had no idea lol. I am totally wearing a t-shirt with a picture of a gold heart on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinghorse83 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 :roftl:hope dies last.... yeah, thats what i was thinking when i almost burst into tears and started this whole toy boy discussion. Yeah. Mika's right - you listen to a happy tune because it's catchy and makes you feel happy, and this song certainly has a nursery rhyme feel to it (boppy tune...reminded me of "ring-a-round the roses...sorta) and the snippets I heard were played in an amusing way...the way he sings SHE'S THE MEANEST HAG THERE'S EVER BEEN just makes me LOL...and when he sings about clothes not matching just makes it sound funny because, without hearing the rest of the words, makes it sound like he's just finding stuff to complain about being with this woman who he doesn't even want to be with..."pulled out my insides with an old safety pin...." On a first glance it's just funny. Sounds childish. But this song really IS like most of the nursery rhymes out there......they're all the same. Nursery rhymes and even the origins of disney storylines are dark and horrible. Ring-a-round the roses, a pocket full of posies, atishoo, atishoo, we all fall down... HELLO?? That song is about people dying LOL. I think. Or just becoming seriously ill. And please, don't discuss the "Toy Boy" song to death. its impossible to discuss a song that good to death in just one night. will take us months. i, for one, am all over it - this is the first time i've been involved in discussion over a new mika song. Well the part in the end (which isn't the end I guess) I'm pretty sure he actually says "Had a boy once who loved me, now he's so afraid of me" which would make sense if it was the mother doing the voodoo and all read okey dokes opinion - she has nail on as far as i can see Reading through the Toy Boy discussion has been extremely interesting. I just remembered that Mika said he was planning to get inspiration from other people's stories and mentioned he was going to visit an old folk's home. So if he did, did someone have a bizarre life story that intrigued him? really? when did he say that? i do not recal.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHtlz75FF7k NONS RECORDING - its great!

Ruth Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I'm gonna keep my computer on since my video's still uploading. I titled it "Mika's New Song - "Toy Boy"" so keep an eye out for it. I'm pissing off to bed. goodnight:bye: Thanks, I'll keep looking out for it. Sleep well, you deserve it. Also, I hadn't realised that Beyond Blue Eyes is a Who song that he's been using during the GreySkelly opening of Love Today - it turned up when I seached YT And please, don't discuss the "Toy Boy" song to death. Maybe not to death, but it does excercise the mind Sleep well ~x~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celien Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 thanks everyone for the pics, videos and reports!! I'm so happy for the people that were there, and that you had the chance to meet Mika! I love the new songs so much! They're brilliant! can't wait anymore for the album!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakie Doke Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 More later. Must catch a plane in 3 hours. Job interview back home in less than 12 hours. More later! Every detail! I promise! Oh my god! (Can't wait!) And then it gets weird, because if the mother is the hag, why would she dress him up "as the man she loved" or put him away "when she had enough"? Unless this is REALLY twisted and the mom used him as her sex-plaything of her own, that can't be it. Gosh, you're right. Every way I look at it the mum ends up having a fling with the doll-character. Which is just TOO twisted for a Mika song. I hope But the "it's a girl/the kid's girlfriend" doesn't go for me, I'm just not seeing it. ALTHOUGH. TITLE!?? "Toy boy"? Maybe it's not too twisted, maybe that is the mum. I'm gonna keep my computer on since my video's still uploading. I titled it "Mika's New Song - "Toy Boy"" so keep an eye out for it. I'm pissing off to bed. goodnight And please, don't discuss the "Toy Boy" song to death. Okay! Can't promise anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackViolet Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Really? I had no idea lol. I am totally wearing a t-shirt with a picture of a gold heart on it Hahah. A gold heart by itself, especially in the form of a picture, has nothing to do with prostitutes. But "a hooker with a heart of gold" is an established saying: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooker_with_a_heart_of_gold If the end of the song is "Had a boy once who loved me, now he's so afraid of me" as opposed to "How’d a boy who’d so loved you now be so afraid of you?" that makes more sense, ok. And I agree with Oakie that yes, the song is about being in love with someone whose mother disapproved and chased him off... but that whole hag/man she loved/had enough thing keeps puzzling me. Because yeah, if the hag's the mother, then... bizarre. Even aside from the general twisted factor of taking your son's boyfriend (!) why would Mika's character go along with that and allow the woman who broke his relationship apart use him as a sex toy? --Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzy Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Ok, here we go. Arrived at the venue at 9am, and waited for about an hour for more people to show up. We staked are places in the queue in our beach chairs and froze. Seriously, it was the most cold I've ever been, I think. I saw that Mika had replied to be on twitter and was gonna send us some hot chocolate and donuts. So freakin' sweet. So John and Sheryl came and took our orders and then came back with the goods. Though the hot chocolate felt so nice and warm and my hands, it did not help my already nauseous stomach. I came so freaking close to just calling my mom and going home. Yes -- it was that bad. However, I stuck it out. As I was laying on the floor, practically dead, Christine whispered "Mika's here" and BAM! I shot right up and felt immediately fine. SO WEIRD. We listened to the soundcheck at which point I thought he was doing a bunch of covers 'cause one of them sounded like the Beach Boys and another one sounded familiar aswell. Eventually we were let in. Almost all of us made it front row. Some stupid VIP people got there before the rest of MFC could. The opening act was so f*cking WEIRD! It was just some burlesque dance/borderline stripper. I was laughing so hard. Now the part you care about. Mika sprung on the stage, starting with Grace Kelly. He kept joking about missing the high G on the keyboard. Next was Big Girl I believe. It was cool hearing the "acoustic" version of that. It didn't sound that acoustic though, but it was tons of fun. After that I believe it was a new song called "Good Gone Girl". I really liked that one. Next was "Billy Brown" where he forgot quite a bit of the lyrics, but it was very cute. I have to admit, I sort of forget them myself. After that was "The Clapping Song" which I still don't know the official name for. It's a lot of fun though. The crowd caught on quickly and were singing along. The main phrase from it is "Blame it on the girlssss, blame it on the boyyys." Then came "Stuck In the Middle." At one point he messed up on piano and smiled at me. I was laughing. He could be the worst piano player in the world but no one would give a f*ck. He's just too lovable. After that was this song called "Toy Boy." It was really funny 'cause he looked at the band and was like "And it's in...A?" (he was talking about what key it was in.) The lyrics are sort of Billy Brown-ish. They're quite funny at times and very...interesting. Then he played "Love Today." When he got up from the keyboard he accidentally knocked the mic stand down which fell to my crotch, but he left it there for a while, until he finally whipped it back up and then moved two feet and dropped it on the other side. Then he played "Lollipop" as a finale, though he came back afterwards with a song called "Blue Eyes" (I think). It's very pretty and catchy (of course :rolls_eyes:). And after that he played "Grace Kelly" again 'cause he said he wouldn't be playing it much on this acoustic tour. I really wanted him to pay "Relax" though. Whatever, it was amazing. After that, we walked down about half a block and collected all of the MFC peeps. Andrew was waiting for Allison to give him the "OK" in order to go back and meet Mika. They said they were only going to allow 10 people, and unfortunately 5 of us got left behind. We were on the verge of tears when we saw Allison smoking outside. I didn't want to bother her 'cause she seemed stressed but the others asked her nicely if we could go in as well and told them I'd been waiting there since 9am and she saw me and remembered me. "You used to have blond hair, didn't you" etc. So thankfully she said not to worry and that she'd let us in. I don't know how many times I can say it, but I LOVE ALLISON! This is the second time she's made me the happiest fan ever. I'm gonna send her flowers or something. Anyways, we met with the other 10 MFCers in this platformed area with booths, and everyone stood in a line to get ready for Mika. But me being the freak I am and to stay sitting down 'cause I was beginning to feel sick again. When he got to the last person (Ashley) I noticed he was about to leave so I ran next to her and said "MIKAAA!" and he turned around and gave me a big hug. Then I asked "You know how I have a bad habit of giving you the most random gifts?" "..Yah" he said. "Well, I've done it again, though I've made it this time." He started looking at it, but I was like "No, don't look at it here!" and he said "I like embroidered things. Ok, I'll look at it later." Then he asked if we wanted a group picture or a picture of him with each member. We let him choose, and he said he'd do both, so we took the group photo and then he posed with everyone. *dies* After he was all done, I asked him to thank Perez for everything, but I don't know if he heard me. Then we all floated out of the club on our clouds and said our goodbyes. I am so lucky to have been part of this and I'd like to give a HUGE thank you to Mika, Perez, Allison, John, Sheryl, and all of his management for just being so awesome to us. And all of the people I got to meet yesterday and today are AMAZING! I love you and guys and I'm very happy to have met you! THE END. Yaaaaaaaaayyyy!
