Marilyn Mastin Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 The interview was great! He did so well and looks Drop Dead Gorgeous!! Poor love. No sleep. Manchester is def 4 hrs from London by car, not 2. I wish he'd stop saying he's a terrible driver and (in another interview) has crashed about 4 cars. He's freaking me out! I keep seeing in my mind, a twisted car wreck and HIM in it!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep seeing in my mind, a twisted car wreck and HIM in it!!!!! I think there's many things Mika does that you don't want to know about then This doesn't have anything to do with bad driving though. But I guess it's easier for him to admit he's a bad driver than that he's a bad planner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Mastin Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I just saw him sing Celebrate! Now that version should have been the single. Completely stripped back and beautiful. Just like Mika is himself! He has to have been a big success on the BBC this morning!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatagordinha Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I didn't really like that performance, sorry I find Celebrate to be tuneless when done acoustically. Very dull. But it's the single and he is stuck with that for now I wouldn't object to a full band version or even, horror of horrors, singing to a backing track, if it's to promote it and the album. It just does not suit acoustic treatment IMHO. I'm sure many of you disagree, but that's my opinion. Many Mika songs are lovely performed stripped back like this, but not this one.

tiibet Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I can't understand how he does all this, no sleep at all and he looks gorgeous and stylish... And Celebrate was so simple and beautiful, loved it! What a great appearance this morning. Even UK must love him like this??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he sings it better when he does the acoustic version. For some reason he always seems to be a little off-key when he sings it to a backing track. But I agree that without the China Boy part the song is missing something. As far as I'm concerned, he could stick to only the China Boy part and leave out the Celebrate part altogether Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
