Dee Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 I finally had the chance to buy Mika's cd. I listened to about 4 times and came down to the conclusion that the very last song makes me feel like Mika was sad when he wrote it. Makes me want to give him a hug, hoping that it would make him feel better. I actually want to cry when I listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martine Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 It certainly is the most fragile song on the album. It is so beautiful, what a voice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 You need to listen to the words. If you've never been in that state you might not understand it. Not saying that everyone doesn't understand, but feel it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really seems to more poigniant when it's night time. hmm no I understand, think about it: driving alone in your car by night... It just multiplies all the feelings of the song. I listen to it in the car a lot too.. well the whole cd really lol That having said it's my fave song of the album. Just because you can feel the emotions put into the song (and the lovely piano ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackwildkitty Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 i love that song, but on my cd over my shoulder is not listed on the back of the cd but its on there? weird... the last song on my cd is ring ring. On my CD the last song is Ring Ring as well, but Over My Shoulder is just after Happy Ending, after about 1 minute of no sound at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 The only reason why I knew that song is because I was playing it on my computer, so I had a chance to really listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CazGirl Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I've been heartbroken so I can feel the emotion from the song. Although I've never wandered the streets "cold and drunk", I know what it feels like to fall, and losing your way. Lyrically, it's quite simplistic, but because it's simplistic it's straight to the point and sometimes...simplistic works better. I think the song sounds amazing in the right frame of mind, the right mood, the right time. I can imagine it would sound creepy in the car *not in a bad way*. when someone posted that the immediate vision I had was the person in the drivers seat, driving down an almost empty road with fields either side, it's very late at night, the moon is out, it's cold...and you're on your own. *shudders* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
