flyingkites Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 MIKA official @mikasounds lyric from what we're woking on today; 'Your love is air, I breath it in around me, don't know its there but without it I'm drowning.' I love this! I can't wait to hear what all these lines sound like. Guess he didn't notice the spelling error this time. Aww... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingkites Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 :naughty: I didn't notice too until you said it It probably would've gone unnoticed by me too if the word 'wok' hadn't reminded me of this so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nas Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I love this! I can't wait to hear what all these lines sound like. Guess he didn't notice the spelling error this time. Aww... well there're actually 2 spelling errors in there... It probably would've gone unnoticed by me too if the word 'wok' hadn't reminded me of this so much.

nas Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I can see only one well, Mika is not the greatest speller, so forgive him the 'woking' and 'breath'.. oo he's absolutely forgiven - i'm guilty of same loads of times... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingkites Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 well there're actually 2 spelling errors in there... I didn't notice that until you pointed it out! I think it's only fair he's a bad speller. He's so good at so many things, I'm glad he left something for the rest of us too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamy_Queen Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I didn't notice that until you pointed it out! I think it's only fair he's a bad speller. He's so good at so many things, I'm glad he left something for the rest of us too. It makes me hope that he won't notice my mistakes in tweets to him (if he will ever read any).

kreacher Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 MIKA official @mikasounds lyric from what we're woking on today; 'Your love is air, I breath it in around me, don't know its there but without it I'm drowning.' he is exciting me so much with these little glimpses mikasounds MIKA officialHorrific fire in Honduras jail, is shockingly sad. 272 dead with people dying in their locked cells unable to escape and weren't being freed I didn't hear about this until he tweeted, I actually feel sick right now. i didn't hear about this! when did it happen? i think Mika posting this shows what a caring, kind spirit he is It probably would've gone unnoticed by me too if the word 'wok' hadn't reminded me of this so much.

Christine Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 It's not the spelling I take issue with but the grammar. Shouldn't the air be around and not the breathing? Happy to hear Underwater is coming together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingkites Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 i didn't hear about this! when did it happen?i think Mika posting this shows what a caring, kind spirit he is I read from the news here that it was last night, but I'm not sure what time that is because of the timezones. I also read that there could be about 350 deaths already. I agree with the bolded part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also read that there could be about 350 deaths already. I agree with the bolded part. so it happened some hours before you posted about it? i watched the local news show this morning & they didn't mention it at all, not even in the news ticker scrolling the bottom of the screen thank gods for Mika & the MFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nas Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 It's not the spelling I take issue with but the grammar. Shouldn't the air be around and not the breathing? Happy to hear Underwater is coming together. but i think that's exactly what he's saying...if you read it with the correct spelling ''Your love is air, I breathe it in around me, don't know its there, but without it I'm drowning" the line equates love with air and that is actually what's 'around' i think it's a beautiful line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Wicky~ Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Your love is air, I breathe it in around me, don't know its there, but without it I'm drowning... I absolutely love this phrase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdeb Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 well there're actually 2 spelling errors in there... Actually, there are 3 errors. "its" should be it's (it is) in this case. It's not the spelling I take issue with but the grammar. Shouldn't the air be around and not the breathing? No, it makes sense to me, as nas said. "Your love is air, I breathe it (the air) in around me..." Happy to hear Underwater is coming together. I hope that's the song the lyric is for -- I thought it could use an additional verse... very anxious to hear more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nas Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Actually, there are 3 errors. "its" should be it's (it is) in this case. you're absolutely right! i would make a horrible editor - spot half, miss half.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 You can breathe air in FROM around, but you don't breathe it in around. I know exactly what he's trying to say...but...he didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzie Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I know exactly what he's trying to say...but...he didn't. ...and that's why he shouldn't eat fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 It worries me that he is researching clowns. I hope he is not going in for a clown/circus theme for the next tour Well I think we just have to wait and see... Actually, there are 3 errors. "its" should be it's (it is) in this case. Thank you!

Poisonyoulove Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 You can breathe air in FROM around, but you don't breathe it in around. I know exactly what he's trying to say...but...he didn't. But "I breathe it in from around me" sounds kind of silly! Most people wouldn't say it that way, would they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamy_Queen Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 But "I breathe it in from around me" sounds kind of silly! Most people wouldn't say it that way, would they? If so - I'm lucky to be not a native speaker. For me the line sounds so beautiful and I don't want to break this spell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poisonyoulove Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 so it happened some hours before you posted about it? i watched the local news show this morning & they didn't mention it at all, not even in the news ticker scrolling the bottom of the screen thank gods for Mika & the MFC You're in America, right? Our news coverage is terrible. They haven't said anything about this on CNN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poisonyoulove Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 If so - I'm lucky to be not a native speaker. For me the line sounds so beautiful and I don't want to break this spell I find it beautiful too. For me, it's the emotion that's important, and he's expressing that perfectly.

Christine Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 But "I breathe it in from around me" sounds kind of silly! Most people wouldn't say it that way, would they? Phrases that don't make sense sound silly too. I would start with "your love is the air all around" and go from there. He's had a year to work on it and it's his job so I'll leave it at that.

He's had a year to work on it and it's his job so I'll leave it at that. It's his job to express things in a poetic way. He's done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
