Ambroisette Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Hi everyone, I didn't read your reviews yet, because I came home from Como yesterday evening and I'm broken. Happy though, but still broken, lol. I'll write my review later but I just need to say it was so, so, so magical. I felt like it was a big honor to be there. Everything was so beautiful and Mika was perfect. I also wanted to let you know I have a few little videos that I am going to upload and some pics too (but not a lot because it was forbidden and the lady came tell my husband she would take his phone). BUT!!!!! I managed to record a lot of songs (like 8 or 10) with my Iphone dictaphone. I would like to share them with you, but I don't know how to transfer them on my computer and how to share them. It are big files and I am lost. The sound is really great If someone could help me with this it would be great... I'll be back later today or tomorrow to write a review and share everything. Also wanted to say I feel so sorry for all of you who couldn't be there, it's such a pity. Let's hope Mika does more of this concerts!!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambroisette Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Hello, Coming for an update... I uploaded almost all my Como videos (as I said, not a lot and not the best view), but still gonna post them here even if you guys posted wonderful ones! Also gonna post my few pics of the theatre and Mika on stage (we were row N so the quality is not the best either). But now the most important!!! I finally managed to upload my audio files from my phone to my computer and the sound is just perfect, it's magic to hear all those beautiful songs again... This are the audio files I have: 1) Intro + Toy Boy + Underwater 2) Heroes 3) Ordinary Man 4) Rain + Last Party 5) Grace Kelly 6) Little Mika chat + Any Other World Now the issue is to share those files. Don't know if I should transform them into MP3 (how do I do that and how do I share them) or if I simply share them with something like Dropbox, etc... Also, once I managed to do that, am I allowed to share it here or not? Have a nice afternoon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Denise* Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Como? A dream. Nothing else.I literally LOVE this kind of concert...I'm an opera singer and the theatre is my home. I hoped so much to attend this concert, since Montreal's shows....and when I must realized I didn't buy a ticket I was very sad...I imagined it will be a great concert......and....yes, it was. I found tickets with my friend Gabry only on saturday and we went to Como on saturday afternoon! This concert, for me, was a magic show...I loved so much the arrangements of songs...especially Last party, Origin of love (my favorite songs), Overrated, Heroes and Grace Kelly. I appreciated so much new shadows of Mika's voice and this confirmed my opinion of him: a great Artist!!! Not everybody can sing well with a symphonic orchestra...this kind of concert is more difficult than normal pop's gigs but Mika was great. I hope for another concerts like this...everyone must "live" this dream...I was transported into another world...I passed some moments with my eyes closed to enjoy Mika and his music in a totally way.I say thank you to my friend Gabry..and to Mika...after the gig he was kind as always.... These are my pics..See u soon!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Was thinking the same about the videos...waiting to be sure, tho! Well, we generally say if something can be purchased commercially we can't post it here due to copyright restrictions. I'm sure that since this show will be televised eventually we're probably breaking some copyright laws, but as that's in the future, I think it's probably OK for now... if someone tells me otherwise, then we'll just take them down. As for how to share the files -- You should be able to upload them directly here -- what sort of files are they? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambroisette Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 You are all very welcome, I'm so happy that the fans who weren't there get a chance to listen to some songs I was surprised too that the sound is that good, at least one thing my phone does right, lol. I really wish I had recorded more songs but I was so scared that they would notice, take my phone and erase all my files or something...(no I'm not paranoid) Oh yes, I wanted to say sorry for the first file with the beginning of the show: I know you can here the "clicking" of the photographer all along. He was just next to me for the first 10 minutes. I thought he was gonna stay there for the whole concert and you can't imagine how hard I doomed the poor man I promised a review, it's coming,for real! This week! Have a nice monday... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearing them all now! I'm especially glad you could record Heroes, which I can't understand why will not be in the CD re-issue! it was one of the best moments of the concert imho. Now if someone else also had a Stardust video or audio recording I'd be in heavens!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikitaDelMar Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Beautiful performance in Como! Only the fact that i saw him in Montreal earlier (with similar interpretations) makes it easier to accept i was not in Como as well. Now, i checked the calendar back, and it DOES NOT SHOW his starting point for this year in Montreal. How come, those concerts with OSM at "Place des Arts" don't show on the MFC calendar ? Neither the Montreal Jazz festival ? Just wandering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
