TinyLove_CJ Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) I have recently re-read Aki's Mikafied version of the poem Night Before Christmas (which is awesome by the way!), and I was inspired to Mikafy a song myself! If you are of a creative mind yourself and wish to Mikafy other well known songs too, then this is the thread for you!(You can find @Aki Celeste 's poem HERE) I recently watched My Fair Lady and ended up with the song 'Get Me to the Church on Time' stuck in my head for a long time afterward. I slowly started changing the words to be more Mika related and after some time I had my own Mika version of the song!If you don't know the original you can listen to it here: Youtube - Get Me to The Church (audio)I haven't Mikafied the whole song because it goes on for ages. So I just stuck to the main chorus, which I've done in three parts. Part 1 is as if your singing about yourself, part 2 is as if Mika fans are singing and part 3 is as if Mika himself is singing.(quite proud of the second verse in part 1, if I do say so myself 😌)I changed Church to Gig. So I present to you:Get Me to the Gig on TimeYOU:I'm seeing Mika in the morning!Ding dong! The bells are gonna chimeMissed him? Absolutely!Don't go and mute meBut get me to the gig on timeI gotta be there in the mornin'Tickets cost me more than a dimeI'm not complaining Please don't be raining!But get me to the gig on time!MIKA FANS:Mika's got a gig in the morning!Ding dong! The bells are gonna chimeFans will be queuingThere'll be no booing!Just get us to the gig on time.We gotta be there in the mornin'The show is gonna be sublimeBe there on the dotWe won't lose the plotJust get us to the gig on time!MIKA:I'm doing a gig in the morning!Ding dong! The bells are gonna chimeTime, don't deceive me!I'll be there, believe me!Just get me to the gig on time I gotta be there in the mornin'Valentino suit, lookin' in me primeBe there Mika-soonYou'll be over the moonSo get me to the gig on time!So get me to the gigGet me to the gigGet me to the gig on time! I am also working on Mikafying another song (from another well known musical 😎), which I'll hopefully post soon.

TinyLove_CJ Posted October 13, 2022 Author Share Posted October 13, 2022 While I'm still working on another song, I wrote a Mika version of Soft Kitty (from The Big Bang Theory - Sheldon Cooper), it's just something short and silly! 😅 To the tune of Soft Kitty: Soft Mika, warm Mika Thinking of you, Happy Mika, sleepy Mika With Sharky and Moo.

silver Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Years and years ago I did a Mikafied rewrite of "It Might As Well Rain Until September" but I can't even remember what thread it was in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Aha! Found it - it was when we were waiting for TBWKTM to arrive. (Apologies to Carole King) I join my fellow fans upon the MFC Sitting and chatting here and waiting patiently For the next album, which we need so desperately. Looks like it won't arrive before September It doesn't matter whether trees are brown or green We are all indoors glued to our computer screens For just a piece of news about your new CD. How will we last until September? Our friends look forward to their picnics on the beach Everybody loves their summer fun But you know, Mika, while your album's out of reach We will just sit here looking glum. We can't make any plans, for holidays or more, Until we know the dates for your acoustic tour. Please give us some new songs and end our misery. I guess we'll have to wait until September 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we'll have to wait until September Just listened to the original song a few times to familiarise myself with the tune (I've never heard the song before) and your Mikafied version is really wonderful and fits so well! Even though we're past September this year, the song seems highly appropriate for Mika fans at the moment waiting for his next album! 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted October 17, 2022 Author Share Posted October 17, 2022 Before I share anymore Mikafied songs, I hereby apologise in advance for anyone who will end up with them stuck in their heads 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted October 17, 2022 Author Share Posted October 17, 2022 My next Mikafied musical song is to the tune of Jolly Holiday from the film Mary Poppins. You can find the original here: Youtube - Jolly Holiday (audio) I've just done the main chorus and the last verse that Bert sings in the original (which is 4.54 minutes into the above link!). Bert sings that verse quite fast (like a rap I guess? 😅) with other girls names, so I've included names of people Mika has performed with! (plus a special man and 2 dogs , proud of that verse, it took me ages to work out!) Jolly Holiday (with Mika) Oh it's a jolly holiday with Mika Mika has magic, it's true When you hear his voice there's nothing sweeter Mika turns the grey skies to blue Oh, music and joy is all around him A world tour is what fans are dreaming of When Mika starts to sing Your heart takes wing We all clap and cheer for he is our king It's a jolly holiday with Mika No wonder that it's Mika that we love! It's true that Kylie and Rufus are Unique with their singing And Jack Savoretti will have you all grinning To celebrate with Pharrell is charming Dancing with Dita - somewhat alarming Danna and Louane put on a show With Ida and Max you'll never feel low Mashrou' Leila will bring happiness your way Ariana, Chiara, merry as May Beautiful are the girls, Sharky and Moo Handsome and kind our is Andy too But cream of the crop, tip of the top It's Micheal Holbrook, and there we stop!

SusanT Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I got as far as "No wonder that it's Mika that we love!" 😄 Don't remember how it continues 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can help to just get the music in your head before reading the new Mika version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
