Salura22 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 why are the words "arguing" and "debating" even mentioned?all i see is discussion and people giving their points of view.... let's not make a mountain out of a mole hill Sorry although english is my first language I might have used the wrong word their wasn't intending to imply anything at all. <3 +1 for Sanfy! awwww thanx kezz <3 Of course! Its his contribution to the world cup spirit.... lmaoooo what a great point!!! THIS MUST BE THE REASON!! No one is arguing about the "sexuality" of the song. We are discussing whether Mika's intent behind the song is a pro-gay message to counteract some of the anti-gay sentiment that is happening in France. ahh my misunderstanding, I thought he had come out and stated that it was a pro-gay message. Hmmm Maybe I'm just crazy <3 lmaooo either way I'd like to choose that it is lmaooo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Mastin Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Thank you for all your translations and reports and news items, everyone! Instead of feeling like a left out American, I feel like I'm right in the middle of the excitement. Thanks to you all, I am! It's the same for me, as a resident of the Mikaless island that's in the sea, just above France. Honestly, you've all made this such an exciting time for me, and other fans who are not from France and Italy. We really feel part of it all. Thank you so much.

Elwendin Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 LOL Someone copied our first draft of the song which had some mistakes and posted it over here then translated it adding more mistakes. Well done. It's the same for me, as a resident of the Mikaless island that's in the sea, just above France.Honestly, you've all made this such an exciting time for me, and other fans who are not from France and Italy.

I felt exactly like you thanks to the many reports, interviews, videos... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokesignal Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 There's two things I wonder about. 1) with all the promotion he did, why did he not sing it even once? 2) how many people living opposite that restaurant would be wondering if they were the ones that forgot to close the curtains?

I had exactly the same thoughts same hours ago. Totally the same. But I think that the stripteasing guy is well aware of his identity. Anyway, really, when will we see him sing it live? I mean, not live live. Just on tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrinac Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I like the song when it's mika's part ... the boom boom boom with girl voice part is not my favorite xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamiam Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 1) He can't remember the words2) I bet they will all be closing their curtains now 1) Might be the reason - he also needs music then. Hope he will do it during the summer 2) I think the right person will feel identified if he hears MIKAs interviews Hope he won't demand royalities for the song ...

As Christine pointed out, in one post of hers, for our own peace of mind, we have to get over the fact he's not going to be a popstar in the UK, for the foreseeable future. It's either that, or move on. A few days ago (I'll be completely honest here) I was on the verge of moving on, but then I heard the song and loved it. I then thought to myself. We know the song won't do well in the UK, so it's best not to raise our hopes, or expect anything here. We can follow his career in other countries, via the MFC and be excited for his success. So I've re-booted my expectations. It's either that, or I'd have to stop being his fan, and I can't do that. So I'm following him now, as a foreign artist, and not thinking of him in terms of a British popstar. For now, this is all we can do. Hopefully, something will bring him back to some form of recognition in the UK, but we can't sit here holding our breath, so I'm not going to.

robertina Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 Marilyn, your words are so sad and so wise at the same time. I think this is what we all should do when he's not popular in our country. Maybe I'll re-read your words in some months and find inspiration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love,love me Re #2... don't think he'd get away with it. Sharona Alperin's name has been sung for years and years, as has Roseanna Arquette's, and the songs they inspired never led to either of them getting any money from it...

Karen and Carolina are not getting any royalties either, as far as I know, and this guy cannot even be identified from the song. What is he going to do? Stand in court and say he was the naked guy? I can totally see Mika and Doriand going: "hm, it's hard to tell. Perhaps if you drop your pants we'll be able to recognise you" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
