Marilyn Mastin Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 That's exactly what happened to me with Les Enfoirés TV show in France It happened to me hearing Mika on the radio. I hadn't seen him on TV. If I had, mind you, it would have been THEN for me! But when I heard him I thought. "Who's that guy with the super-sonic falsetto? He can also sing the low notes. WOW! That guy can really sing and I just Know he wrote that song Love Today because no one could sing it like him!" Once I got his name and his first album, I was lost in Mikaworld. I know that particular show you mentioned got France hooked on him. I hope DWTS does the same for all Americans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I think most French people had known him already, only the very very late people like me got to know him thanks to that show (it was early 2013) I really hope the DWTS show will have impact for him in the US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, very early on in his career, he was on some French show. When I saw the video, that's when I first realised he could speak French. He actually sang a bit of Killer Queen, because the host said he sounded like Freddie Mercury (he nailed it too) I thought the show you mentioned was the same one.

Terrible... it IS terrible. People from Syria have been wandering outside Milan Central Station for days now, looking for a shelter, and now the town council have decided to intervene, eventually. it's such a huge drama.

A. Clay Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 What the hell: Ariana Grande @ArianaGrande 58m #YoursTruly fact.. #PopularSong when U hear me laugh at 1:43 it was because the producer said "big floppy penis" in my headphones... Idk why Thank you Ariana Grande' date=' for making me think about big floppy penises every time I hear this song.

mamiam Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 This show was Taratata I loved it and watched it several times. Didn't MIKA sing a bit of "Champs Elysees" in this program as well? - with his big, beautiful eyes looking up in the celing - or do I remember it wrong ?

guylainem123 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 i bet not too many people paid attention to the little giggle before, so it's not a big issue. life is too short people! When it comes to Popular Song, it isn't a "Ariana versus Mika" situation, it's Mika alongside Ariana... For all we know, she could be opening doors for him.

Every day wounded Syrians children cross the border into here, after their house and family are gone, get medical care in the hospitals and return back to the nightmare.. The political and media discussions about Syria always revolve around what is best for the US. How much money will it cost, how many Americans will be killed, will it generate terrorist retaliation against Americans, will the constituents penalize politicians for getting into a war they don't want, will Obama's threats to act make the US look weak if he doesn't follow through. And basically Obama's opponents will take whatever opposite position he takes just because their whole purpose in life is to block him in everything he does regardless of the consequences. So if he's anti-involvement they want him to get involved, if he is talking about military action they are suddenly against it. It's all about what is politically expedient for them and is played out like a game. Unfortunately Syrian children don't get much consideration. :rolls_eyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe now he sees it as the right choice but I think later on it'll appear to be a mistake, and it'll all come back to him, like a boomerang.

IngievV Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 It's not such an easy situation. It's easy to say Obama is doing something wrong by not interfering but unfortunately there is more to it than that. And really, isn't Assad the one to blame?

Yes and you oust Asssad and you usher in a whole new set of problems. Problems that come back to bite you in the ass in 20 years as they did with Saddam Hussein. Today's friends can be tomorrow's enemies and if you are the one who funded them, empowered them and armed them you have no one but yourself to blame. I don't blame the US if they want to be more isolationist. I know I would rather have my government involved in humanitarian efforts and helping the refugees. I don't think dropping bombs is going to help anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
