Hero Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 So, I was browsing the excellent thread of cover songs, and it set me thinking. Are there any songs that you would like to hear Mika cover? Maybe because of the technical challenge, or to hear his take on it, or just because it'd be freaking awesome! (Obviously this is a wishful thinking thread, I'm not taking requests on his behalf! We don't tell the master what to do. ) I'd love to hear his take on these: *The Communards with Sarah Jane Morris - Don't leave me this way *Take That - Shine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kumazzz Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Hi @Hero it's a nice thread. We know Mika respects David Bowie, he choose "Life On Mars" to his The Voice team twice. Here is a bit clip of Mika singing that song for coaching Fabienne Della Moniqua and Akram Sedkaoui in 2014. I'd like to listen Mika covers the whole of "Life On Mars" so much.

teenagedreamer98 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I would love to hear him cover I Don't Feel Like Dancing by the Scissor Sisters. It's very similar to his style and would really suit his voice! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I'd like to hear him sing the whole of True Colors (Cyndi Lauper). He sang part of it with someone he was coaching on one of the talent shows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliza Ella Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) I want to hear him do a full cover of "Running (Lose it All)" by Beyonce and Naughty Boy. He sang a line or two from it when coaching Luca on X-factor and it gave me chills. . . I replayed those 15 seconds over and over and to hear him cover the entire song would be incredible.

TinyLove_CJ Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 How have I only come across this thread now?! I can't believe I missed it! 😲 I would love Mika to cover these songs: > What About Us by P!nk, the song makes me think about Mika and Andy's relationship. > Mountains (We Met) by Christine and the Queens, rather than just a cover I would love Mika to duet with Chris on this!!! And this might seem like a silly one but I think with Mika it would really work, I'd like to hear him sing Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen! 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a cool playlist during lunch break at school and this one is the favourite of her and her friends! I am trying to imagine Mika singing it… he would make it so much fun for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember thinking the idea of Mika covering Journey's Don't Stop Believin' was a little strange but after listening to it, it definitely sounds more fun than the original. I was listening to one of my favourite songs yesterday, Feels Like I'm in Love by Kelly Marie And I would love to hear Mika cover this! The chorus is a little repetitive so it would be nice if Mika changed it up a bit and added his own words. Again it might seem a strange cover but I think it could work!
