I have just begun to properly listen to the Beatles recently, as in, to their albums not just the odd song...and I am amazed at just how much Mika I hear and feel in them..maybe that should be the other way around, but whatever.
I am hooked on the Sgt Pepper album at the moment and all I can think when I listen to it is, I hope Mika produces something like this one day. Not a copy of it, but something that is intensely melodic and musical, quirky, imperfect (all the best albums are!!) poppy yet also progressive, conceptual, varied, and stands the test of time.
A lot to ask I know, but who knows??
No doubt about that at all.
sariflor..up until a few weeks ago I would have tended to agree with you on the overrated thing. Then my kids (yes, my kids!!) got me into them and all I can say is..believe the hype. Yes even Paul I don't much like his solo stuff either and I hate Wings, but he WORKED as part of the Beatles. IMO anyway.
Give them a whirl
Classic!
Yes it's probably my favourite bit of the dvd. I'll be a bit heartbroken if it's not on the new album
