My ears are good aren't they:wink2:

They are. I heard an 'f' sound, but Mana and Christine thought I was crazy. I guess I was hearing the 'v' in "have" and confused it with an 'f'. :naughty:

 

Yeah Blue Sky got that part. :teehee:

 

I was going mental. :aah:

 

So was I :lol3:

It looks like "no giving up" to me in this video, around 5:50: http://www.wdr.de/radio/wdr2/westzeit/524707.phtml

 

Maybe OMM made an oops?

 

I love that one because:

 

1. At aprox.5:10 he seems to be ready to take off. :naughty:

 

2.the way he says "hiding"

 

3.at 6:03 ("I was a boy" ) he seems pretty touched by that verse and dammit! He can't STAY STILL!!! (which brings back memories of my unsuccessful attemps of taking one good pic of him at the gig but he would never stay :sneaky2: looks like only in my pic with him got to stay still a little :das: I made him stay still! :roftl: )

 

and my guess on "running": "Running around again/ Running from hiding" ? :dunno:

Had a sudden epiphany on the bridge :fisch:

 

Now I'm sitting alone

And I'm looking for help

Left here on my own

I'm gonna hurt myself

Many years have gone by

I'm still wondering why

Heaven let the world

Let it bleed me dry

 

My ears are good aren't they:wink2:

 

 

Updated the front. Thanks Christine.

 

And thank you Blue Sky!

I still think "I was hiding From the things that you’d say" is "running"...

 

I mean, I know he said "hiding" in the acoustic version, but it sounds like "running" in the song...and...y'know, words can be changed :naughty:

Nope, I'm afraid it's hiding in the recorded version too. :naughty:

Look at what Perez tweeted @MikaSounds Running around like a cloud on purpose. xoxo

 

So is it cloud? Perez probably doesn't know for sure either. How could he.

 

 

On the recorded version I hear 'cloud' on purpose, but in the acoustic - clown.. maybe he picked up clown after ppl tweeting it to him

 

Why do I hear 'Running from money 'instead of 'Running from running '

 

I hear money in the recorded version... and then running on the acoustic:boxed: Is he doing it again... just change lyrics whenever he feels like it

Too quick wonka... we should call you flash wonka..

 

Don't apologize, that's how the MFCs scripts started :wink2: (or so I guess) :naughty:

 

Maybe squirrels were around there along with the money

 

 

 

 

I just had a flashback to the post where Sasje (one of the former mods), told that her mum asked her "Why that Mika song talks about a pizza man?"

 

Now it's impossible to me to listen to Any Other world without hearing:

"Cause it's all in the hands, of a PIZZA PIZZA man"

 

 

:roftl::roftl: That was ages ago...oh no.. now i'm gonna start listening that again.. took me ages to forget about it :sneaky2:

 

 

 

Me too..

Those are clearly not muffins. Cupcakes, I say! :shun::mf_rosetinted:

 

 

Sariflor also happens to hear "We are donut"... maybe the whole song is really about baked goods. :aah:

 

:roftl:

I'm on board with this except for the "many years have gone by" line. "g" and "b" are pretty solid consonants, and I'm just not hearing that when I listen to it closely. And I really think I hear "m" sounds on the bit I thought was "my mind". I've even used software to slow it down but it's a weird file format - I'ma convert it to MP3 and upload just the slowed-down bridge for your listening pleasure. :naughty:

 

I suppose I won't be convinced either way until we get some nice footage of him singing those lines, and can read his lips. :naughty:

 

Is he doing it again... just change lyrics whenever he feels like it.

 

I wouldn't be surprised. On the studio version I'm just not hearing "staying out of motion" no matter how hard I squeeze my eyes shut and try to hear it. If I hadn't heard the acoustic version, I'd be willing to bet half my confetti collection that there's an "r" sound in there, and that the words are "staring at." :roftl:

After watching him sing it live on ITV2, the lyrics are definitely "Many years have gone by, I'm still wondering why". :wink2:

 

Yup, it was nice and clear on the live version, even if I still don't hear it on the recorded clip. Same with with "staying out of motion" bit. :aah:

 

I can't wait to hear it live and in person. :wub2:

We were teenagers.

We are teenagers.

The life grow with the sun everyday.

Nothing is impossible.

We are the dreamers.

Our dreams will be come true.

Our dreams are golden.

We have a golden circus.

We are golden.

Oh my god, Mari, good find!!! :wub2:

 

Let's see (I may be wrong, but I'll have a go):

 

"Running, running around

Sick of acting the clown

Leaves me nothing to do

But have to think of you

 

So much left to go wrong

Didn't knew I belonged

If I had words for hate

Would I have lived this way?

 

Oh, I'm sitting alone

And I'm looking for help

Left here on my own

I'm gonna hurt myself

Many years have gone by

I'm still wonderin' why

I ever let the world,

let it bleed me dry".

 

This is just... fantastic. Wow, I'm speechless. :blush-anim-cl:

Wow. What a nice treat to wake up to!

 

I think you nailed the lyrics, Mana -- and I guess "many years have

gone by..." is what he sings in the original version, too. I don't think I

would have ever gotten that on my own :wink2:

 

Thanks Mari for posting and Nono for the file! :thumb_yello:
