krjsantos Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 You're certainly not alone. From any way I think about it, I feel bad. Did they have it, already? Did they choose it limited to Italian options? Did they get it from a pro? Did they want us to feel "included" without including us? Anyway, if you guys want to see what a real fan made, you can go to the brazilian thread. Trust me, it is worth. I agree totally aaaw, you're the sweetest Fran is absolutely right Oh, I didn't see it, will try to find here it is http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18607&page=237 You are fast I was getting it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiibet Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I can't see the magazine thinking of fans' feelings. They were probably just pleased to show a professional style illustration, and how could they even know who is a real fan and who not. I'm sure Mika thought of his fans and maybe this was originally his idea. Well, you know him, he has so many ideas... I understand those people who entered are disappointed I was hoping to see someone I know getting a drawing in the magazine, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louiza Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thanks Robi and Nerys once again:thumb_yello: Hope they post he original version soon, cant wait to read it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Mastin Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thanks Robi, I'll add a few details to what I wrote earlier. So he's been busy working on his album, in the States, Montreal and Stockholm. Some of the problems of living in a recording studio is that his hearing has been becoming worse and also that he's been living on take away food, and lots of coffee. He says coffee helps to sort of distance himself from the music, drinking it gives him time to think. And once he's finished his coffee he feels fine again. The second part covers the history of coffee, starting with how hyperactive goats made an Ethiopean shepherd connect the coffee bushes they were eating from with their energy. During the centuries coffee spread up to the Middle East, and a sort of link between coffee and Islam was created. Coffee beans were then imported into Venice from Istanbul. The various attempts to ban the drink failed, and it spread throughout Europe. In the last part he writes about the coffee culture in the States. In Venice Beach, LA, there's a coffee shop, Intelligentsia Café that always has a queue outside it, the wait for a coffee is 45 minutes. LA is the home of coffee shops. But even in Europe he says that every 3 blocks he finds a Starbucks - everywhere but Italy. In France people thought that it'd be difficult for Starbucks to compete with the coffee culture of the country, but everyone was proven wrong. He says Italy does well though to resist, and should be proud of this, but he says the new American obsession with fair trade and organic coffee makes him think. He says that the queue at Intelligentsia isn't just because the coffee's good, but also because it's bought directly from the people who produce it - small companies. Biological products are also good for the environment, and he says Italy would do well to learn from the queues at Venice Beach. He ends by saying that considering that behind every coffee bean there's centuries of history and 25 million families in the world who depend on the drink, it pays to have a bit of patience. That seems really interesting. I love how Mika teaches us things without us even realising we want to learn about them. I'm sure the translated article will be fascinating, as all the others have been. What is wrong with Mika's hearing? Oh God, I hope it doesn't get any worse! I think I did read somewhere about him having hearing problems, but I hoped it was just some rumour! It's the worst thing to happen to a musician so I hope and pray he'll be okay.
