Would love to get a transcript of the lyrics, if any of the Italian speakers has time for it. 4 hours ago, Mikasister said: Maybe this thread should be in Mika's Music & Artwork. @mellody 1 hour ago, silver said: It's not really Mika's music though, is it? I think it is OK here. I think even Bella Estate had a thread, tho it was a cover, but I guess we could leave this here as news and open a new one for song discussions & lyrics?

BeccaStardust Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Idk what it is but I'm really not keen on this, Mikas voice sounds very high and autotunned I I don't think it really works 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carafon Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Too much autotune imo . I'd like to ear it "live" because sometimes I even don't recognize Mika's voice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right about the zodiac sign. Note the reference to "astral conjunction" below: from https://www.imusicfun.it/news/baby-k-mika-bolero-testo-significato-nuovo-singolo/ A single in which the sound winks at 80s synthwave nuances, meeting an exotic world. A real short circuit between the voices of the two artists, who come together releasing an explosive power. Despite the uptempo rhythm, BOLERO brings with it a hint of melancholy and tells the nostalgia of the good times shared with another person. Even if the most beautiful season of the year has arrived, now that the relationship is over everything is different, because being together is just a memory… at least until it is possible to find oneself in an astral conjunction, "where the sun meets the Lion". (Google translation) However, "where the sun meets the Lion" might be intended figuratively, referring to an ideal moment I suppose, not literally in July/August.

Lulul Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 I like it a lot. I find the combination of genres very interesting. It has some Latin American sounds like bachata, and with the electronic style from the 80's/90's. It's a combination I never thought would work. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really love to dance bachata. So now being able to do a bachata on a song by Mika is two worlds colliding for me! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
