I think it sounds like SINCE your a woman, and it's DEFO got to be MATTER and not maTHer as some ppl have put, since mather is a surname and MATTER makes sense.

 

She just made a spelling mistake, which is logic, since English isn't her first language.:wink2:

Ohh, Joanna spoke out

To your surprise

You're sick of crying

For blue eyes

So tired of living

Misunderstood

Think hard woman

I think you should

 

Ok, is it just me, or does "Joanna" sound a whole lot like "Joannie"? Maybe this is about Mika's mom?

Here's what I hear:

 

Ohh, Joanna spoke out

To your surprise

You're sick of crying

For blue eyes

So tired of living

Misunderstood

Think hard woman

I think you should

 

Common sorrow is so peculiar

It comes in a day, then it will never leave you

You take a pill, wonder if it will fix you

Then wonder why sorrow has never left you

 

I'm talkin' bout blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter matter

so blind, so blind

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter with you?

 

Ohh, Joanna broke down

On the end of the round

Your fighting spirit

In the lost and found

Oh I've been watching

How you behave

Not much of a lover

More than a slave

 

Common sorrow is so peculiar

It comes in a day, then it will never leave you

You take a pill, wonder if it will fix you

Then wonder why sorrow has never left left you

 

I'm talkin' bout blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter matter

so blind, so blind

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter with...

 

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter matter

so blind, so blind

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter with you?

What's the matter with you?

What's the matter with you?

Okay. Off to finish my gig report. Someone, ban me from these lyrics threads until my gig report is done! :roftl:

 

 

That fits w/ what I hear except I hear "Your heart is broken" not "Joanna spoke out" and "Your heart got broken" not "Joanna broke down"

I don't think it's a cover. It's really catchy therefore it must be an original Mika song :naughty:

 

jeje you're right!! xD

 

do you have a functional link of this song=??

 

becuse I can't find it =/

someone was saying that this song was a cover? is it true??

 

I have no reason to believe it's a cover. He didn't introduce it as one, and there's nothing online with similar lyrics.

 

There are lots of other songs out there called Blue Eyes, though, maybe that's why people thought it was a cover.

 

I could be wrong of course - but I'll be gutted if it turns out it is a cover. I'm in love with it. :wub2:

Okay after listening to this song around seven zillion more times, here's what I'm hearing now. I'm still hearing the Joanna thing, but maybe this is another chicken/ticket debacle where Mika takes a single sound and invents his own consonant blend. :roftl:

 

Either way... I'm all kinds of in love with this song. Just as it is. It's perrrfect. :wub2:

 

Blue Eyes

 

Ohh, Joanna's broken

To your surprise

You're sick of crying

For blue eyes

So tired of living

Misunderstood

Think hard woman

I think you should

 

Common 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

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter matter

so blind, so blind

Blue eyes, blue eyes

Ohh, Joanna broke down

On the end of the round

We'll find her spirit

In the lost and found

Oh I've been watching

How you behave

Not much like a lover

More like a slave

I get

 

"ohh you're heart is broken"

 

at the beginning instead of Joanna

 

Mkay I hear that, too, on one of the YouTube versions. I think it's clearer than the first MP3 rip that surfaced. :punk:

 

In that case, do we think the second verse is:

 

-----------------

 

Ohh, you'll wind up broken

At the end of the round

We'll find your spirit

In the lost and found

Oh I've been watching

How you behave

Not much like a lover

More like a slave

I hear "Your heart is broken" as well. I found this video, on which the

audio is pretty good:

 

And I just have a few other little

things I hear differently from Mana's version --

not saying I'm right, it's hard to make some of these phrases out:

 

Ohh, your heart is broken

Tears on the right

You're sick of crying

For blue eyes

So tired of living

Misunderstood

Think (good?) woman

I think you should

 

Common (come?) sorrow is so peculiar

It comes in a day, then it will never leave ya

You take the pill, wonder if it will fix you

Then wonder why sorrow has never left you

 

I'm talkin' bout blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter matter

so blind, so blind

What's the matter, matter

Blue eyes, blue eyes

What's the matter with you?

 

Ohh, your heart got broken

(On the end of the round?)

Won't find your spirit

In lost and found

Oh I've been watching

How you behave

Not much of a lover

More like a slave

It comes in a day, then it will never leave ya
