Oakie Doke Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 .. I have some work to do now so let me write down my interpretation in brief Part I: Toy Boy has his first relationship with a man who then throws him away like a toy Part II: Toy Boy becomes a rental boy of a middle aged woman who tries to shape him to her taste... He turns into a lifeless toy without a real identity Hmm, interesting. I think the bold bit is right, the story with it ... interesting. .. example:people can think happy ending is a love story but mikas interpretation he always thought it was about homeless people Really? I didn't even know that! This was probably already discussed in the pre-gig thread (sorry)' date=' but you can see the set list in this photo: THE SET LIST:Grace Kelly Big Girl NEW SONG! with ooo ooo ooo's - called "Good Gone Girl" Billy Brown THE CLAPPING SONG! NEW! called "Blame it on the Girls" Stuck in the Middle Toy Boy -- Slower NEW song Love Today Lollipop *ENCORE* NEW song with guitar - called "Blue Eyes" Grace Kelly again! With one verse in French! According the that picture the set list should have been: Grace Kelly Good Gone Girl Big Girl Blue Eyes Billy Brown Stuck In the Middle Love Today Blame it on the Girls Boy Toy *something I can't read* Not that that changes anything, he could easily have not played it to that list, but at least it shows the real name of the Clapping Song is Blame it on the Girls.

Blue Sky Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Sorry haven't read the thread yet. Just starting to upload videos. Blame It On The Girls (clap clap song) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2PCeY_E8bA Toy Boy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHtlz75FF7k AMAAAAAAZING THANKYOU!! Christine and all did you see we found you here while you were still queueing (posted in the pre-show thread) Robi just reposted the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 likewise!! I never expcted it. When I first watched it on YouTube I could only hear snippets, you could see Mika "flirting" with the lyrics "I'm just a boy like you..." "SHE'S THE MEANEST HAG THERE HAS EVER BEEN...." and this just made the song sound funny. But when I actually listened to the words it's actually really serious and you can tell that - whether this story to be fact or fiction - this person's feelings has been toyed around (literally ) and really hurt. I love the whole metaphor for the song. Yes,he did it again! He is good isn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I <3 MIKA!!! Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Really? I didn't even know that! yup he mentioned it in an interview i think it was a chinese one...he said that on his way to the recording studio he would go through the back ways and would pass by lots of homeless people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinghorse83 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Really? I didn't even know that! NO ITS NOT! gawsh more misinterpreting; happy ending is about losing things, not a break up as commonly misconcepted. mika considered the happy ending video to be about homeless people but eventually decided against it. after he wrote the song he thought that it could be interepreted in a lot of different ways. he thought the homeless people were more important then the original subject matter.

Oakie Doke Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Oh, AMP! That's what I meant to say at the start, but I forgot all about it. WHAT IF ... the new album is a concept/story album? What if all the songs in the album relate to the same 'story'? And the Georgia in Good Gone Girl is the same one in Toy Boy? IF the Georgia in Toy Boy is a girl and not a state, it seems odd for him to have randomly used the name Georgia in two songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatagordinha Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 :shocked: The new songs are GOOOOOOD!!!! And lyrically, , Mika has evolved, that is for sure. I've only listened to each one once so far and I don't have a favourite (yet) but that must mean they are ALL good songs. I cannot wait for the album, I really can't. Haven't read all the thread yet, but thanks to all for vids/reports/pics/etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He writes albums like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
