robertina Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Actually you might have put this into my ear as I can now also hear Paul Simon in it.. (eg. the rhythm and some of melody of the verses (but not the chorus) of You can call me Al...) YES!!! paul simon i so thought of him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Eyes Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 No problem! I don't know why, I was just fixated on figuring this one out. As soon as he said the title in LA that night, btw, I thought of you. First MFCer with a song named after them! Awww thanks ... do I win a prize? lol !! has anyone thought it might not mean...blue eyes as in the colour but blue meaning sad...or both? Still my fav so far! altho think GGG will be a hit!xx Oh yes, with lyrics like that it's definitely sad -it's just that the music is so 'jolly' (I guess Mr Meeks likes to confuse us eh?!) I'm with you on your 2 faves so far (but subject to change of course ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frog.teerez Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 this song is pretty catchy like the other Mika songs I absolutely love it:wub2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Okay, it's official. I am wholly, completely, over-the-moon obsessed with this song. I feel, again, how I felt when I first heard Love Today. I'm really quite nervous to hear the studio version. I can already tell there's going to be an "ugh, can I bear to listen to it?" moment about playing that track when I get the CD. It's so perfect done live, stripped down, acoustic! Of course, maybe the studio version will be even more awesome. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplegrape Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 GUYS! I've been gone for like 4 days. What've I missed? I see the lyrics are done and a lot of them make a ton more sense than what I had going Personally I think the song is very straight-foward and doesn't call for much explination. It might also be a favourite new one right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we can talk about the music now - although there is another thread about the new songs in terms of the musical content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnaMariaPetra Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 ...So as this is my namesake (and it didn't already have it's own thread) I was just wondering if some lovely person would like to interpret the lyrics to this wonderfully uplifting new tune ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PwRrvG1r3c ------------------- *Edit by Mana* Here's the lyrics, as far as we've managed to crack them, as of 6:45pm BST on April 18: ------------------- Blue Eyes Come, sorrow is so peculiar It comes in a day, then it'll never leave you You take a pill, wonder if it will fix you They wonder why sorrow has never left you Come, sorrow is so peculiar It comes in a day, then it'll never leave you You take a pill, wonder if it will fix you They wonder why sorrow has never left you Doesn't it make more sense if the lyrics would be: How come sorrow is so peculiar?

"And it seems to me you lived your life Like a Sariflor in the wind Always flying to other countries On a crazy whim Chasing that pretty poptart Beyond England's greenest hills You'd go see him in Australia If he's ever on the bill..."

lollipop_monkey Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 He was watching MEEEEE! Yikes! Down, fangurl! Don't bite me! I stand corrected. What I should have said was "Mika was watching Christine and trying to sort out just how long it will take her to pack up her life in Canada and move into his London flat after he proposes to her."
