BiaIchihara Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Could you please summarise what it said? Site tried to give my comp a virus MIKA has announced his new album The Origin of Love, due out on Universal Republic this fall. Following up his multi-million selling worldwide smash ‘The Boy Who Knew Too Much’ (which debuted in every single iTunes top ten around the world), The Origin of Love is Mika’s third album and will be preceded by an EP this summer. The anthemic brand new single “Celebrate” is an epic slice of cool modern pop destined to be a global summer soundtrack, written by Mika, produced by Nick Littlemore from Empire of the Sun and featuring Pharrell Williams on vocals. Completely self-created and self-imagined, ‘The Origin of Love’ has been a two-year DIY labour of love for Mika who has put together everything on the record himself, flying around the world under his own steam personally assembling an incredible roll call of collaborators – in addition to Nick Littlemore and Pharrell Williams Mika has also worked with William Orbit, Benny Benassi, FrYars, Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Adele), Klas Ahlund (Robyn’s Body Talk) as well as working with some brand new unsigned musicians he found himself online. “This single is what happens when you combine a 22 year old you find online, Fryars, with an extra-planetary Nick Littlemore and Pharrell Williams!” says Mika of ‘Celebrate’. “Written by me, Pharrell and Fryars and produced by Nick, this kind of collaboration is only possible when everyone throws themselves into it wanting to have fun and without any ego. This collective and open attitude was at the heart of ‘The Origin Of Love’. It’s an album about crazy love songs and tolerance. It was recorded in Miami and London but mostly in Fryars' north London bedroom studio!” Mika has commissioned a short film to accompany one of the songs from the new album. ‘Make You Happy’ which can be seen at . Another track from the album ‘Elle Me Dit’ was released in France last year, reaching No 1 and becoming one of the biggest tracks of summer there. A further Mika composition from the album writing sessions ‘Gang Bang’ features exclusively on Madonna’s new ‘MDNA’ album, a track which she has widely praised as her favourite song on the record. Mika spent most of 2010 and 2011 on a massive Global tour playing hundreds of shows to sell-out audiences across Europe, Asia and North America. He will be debuting songs from the new album at his shows this summer. There will be a US tour this fall. Mika has now sold over 8 million records and Gold or Platinum awards in 32 countries worldwide across his previous two albums ‘Life in Cartoon Motion’ and ‘The Boy Who Knew Too Much’, winning Brit and MTV Awards in the process.

suzie Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) In fact I think he says "it wouldn´t be fair to THEM" when he is asked about the name of his lover... Damn English In Spanish you CAN´T avoid the genre I don't understand your doubts. Didn't Mika say that his love was 'quite the opposite of Dita'? To me, it clrearly translates to someone who is not /does not - have black hair - wear lipstick, suspenders and Louboutins - female Edited June 21, 2012 by suzie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know where the idea of the came from in the first place. I think a member mentioned it on the album thread, supposing there would be one like last time, but there was no reliable info on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 There seems to be a core press release going around and some sites started adding the bit about the EP and then one site added something about a US tour in the fall. Maybe there was some sort of mashup with info about the second album. I suppose the EP could be for the US market only but seems like some unreliable info at this point.
