sfsmg1 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Some corrections on the original lyrics Hier on était chez ta mère, elle a failli tomber par terre En entendant le dressing room quand toi et moi on faisait boum boum boum Dans les ascenseurs des hotels on s'est montés au 7ème ciel On envoie balader les grooms quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum Et tous les bourgeois du 16ème se demandent pourquoi je t'aime Pour n'avoir pas besoin d'un zoom quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum Boum boum, boum boum boum, boum boum, boum boum boum, boum boum, boum boum boum Quand on reçoit des invités on ne sait pas meme résister entre le thé et les locous (?) y a le temps de faire boum boum boum C'est vrai que les murs ont des oreilles, que tous les voisins se réveillent mais c'est comme ça qu'on fait l'amour quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum Et tous les bourgeois du 16ème se demandent pourquoi je t'aime Pour n'avoir pas besoin d'un zoom quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum S'aimer comme ça, c'est pas vulgaire On a toujours un truc à faire, les étagères font badaboum quand toi et moi on fait boum boum boum !

Sabine64 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) All the people who are angry about the lyrics should think about how often they sang to Lollipop and what Lollipop means in that song. I reall love this song, it´s fresh, summery, naughty and very catchy Edited June 10, 2014 by Sabine64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reall love this song, it´s fresh, summery, naughty and very catchy I'm not 'angry' but I really don't like the lyrics. It's got nothing to do with Lollipop. It may be the same theme but the way the message is conveyed is completely different. Lollipop lyrics are very smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdeb Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 nope... not that i noticed, but we didn't hear the full song yet. but in my head, it's not a woman Nor is it in Mika's head, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimjims Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 This is so different, it almost sounds kind of Latin, but it is definately catchy and fun. I am not too keen on the little shouts that he gives on min 1:05 onwards, it is not very Mika and that sounds quite mainstream. Also, the lyrics are going to shock many of the people who thought that Mika was young and naive in the Voice... Apart from that, I can't wait for the full song Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be the same theme but the way the message is conveyed is completely different. Lollipop lyrics are very smart. i totally agree, this is no Lollipop... but then again... these are most likely not Mika's lyrics either... at least not entirely. he doesn't write in french as well as he does in english, no matter what people say or think, i stand by it.

smokesignal Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Thanks, Sylvie and Raya. But honestly... what's so terrible? Surely there are plenty of songs that are even more explicit than this? Or is it because it's Mika singing rather explicit lyrics that you don't like them? Even though I wish I could sing along to it, I can't help it, I love the song -- it's catchy and summery and fun and I know I'm going to be playing it on a continuous loop until my husband threatens divorce! Well... I do think the boum boum boum is a bit silly. I'll have to get my head around the whole 'it's not vulgar' statement combined with that expression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathouzouf Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 yes, they are. But this is a completely different song, a love freedom anthem, shouted out loud to the world. And a summer hit You sum it up pretty well! I LOVE it:wub2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfsmg1 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I'm sure that he talks about a man, I really love this song, it's so fresh, it's his message to the world, about tolerance, about equality, about freedom ! Commercial or not, sure it will be a hit this summer ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmont69 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) I haven't read your posts yet. I'll check your first impressions later. Am I the only one to find this extract one of the most romantic 90 seconds he ever wrote? I left a little boy at Heaven, whispering his statement of freedom, twisting his fingers, with a palpable embarrass, and I find now a man shouting all his love to the world. I am so touched. It will never be a catchy summer song for me. Never. Damn'd Penniman. Edited June 10, 2014 by Valmont69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camille* Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 he doesn't write in french as well as he does in english, no matter what people say or think, i stand by it. It's the first time I realise this so strongly, although I've had my doubts with L'Amour dans le Mauvais Temps.. But for me that song was not commercial and silly.. I'm sorry but that's how I feel about this one.. For now anyway. And believe me, it makes me very sad to have to say that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melyssa Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 entre le thé et les locous (?) il y a le temps de faire boum boum boum So, the word is Lookoums, and it means turkish delights, it was quite a debate elsewhere apparently xD I am in love with his chest voice in this, I am extremely fine with the lyrics, here is a happy me (No Mels, this is a happy banana, you are not a banana) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwendin Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Thanks to Melyssa for the lookoums I first read about them in Narnia, the evil queen lured the boy with them. Just saying, no connection with the song of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
