mika-obsessive-13 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 yay !! happy ending is gonna be the official new single ! Hello, a little update on Mika news for you... New Single Info Mika's next single 'Happy Ending' will be released on CD and 7" on October 15th and will be available to download one week before that on October 8th. ‘Happy Ending’ is taken from MIKA’s debut album ‘Life In Cartoon Motion’ which has sold an incredible 700,000 copies so far, making MIKA officially the biggest new artist of 2007. ‘Life in Cartoon Motion’ is now the second biggest selling album of the year, just behind Amy Winehouse. The album has sold an additional 2 million copies around the world! A big thank you to everyone who has supported Mika so far, let's hope ‘Happy Ending’ can follow the success of MIKA’s first three hit singles, ‘Grace Kelly’, ‘Love Today’ and ‘Big Girl’ all of which reached the Top Ten and Number One on the Airplay Chart. The single will also feature remixes from: Kleerup (currently number 1 in the charts with the track he produced for Robyn) This Time Of Night (Jon Kahuna from FC Kahuna) Quentin Harris (legendary Detroit producer) Trail – cutting edge new artist from San Fransisco **************************************************************** MIKA and UGLY BETTY! Mika has teamed up with the hit TV show 'Ugly Betty'...the ad campaign for the new series features a video of Betty and the crew acting out to a soundtrack of MIKA singing a specially re-recorded version of his huge hit single ‘Big Girls’. The track is now re-sung as ‘Betty Girl’ with a chorus that rings ‘Hey Betty, You Are Beautiful!’ The ad debuts nationwide across the States on August 15th. In addition, a music video featuring MIKA recording ‘Betty Girl’ along with scenes from his “Big Girl” music video, and memorable moments from season one of “Ugly Betty,” can be found on ABC.com. MIKA says ‘Betty is a real fashion icon and we should celebrate anyone like her - genuine individuals who stay true to their own identity. That’s what ‘Big Girls’ is all about so it was the perfect fit to change to song especially for her. It was a huge honour to be asked to do it, I love the show!’ Exclusive Music Video “Betty Girl” Available at ABC.com ***************************************************************** T4 ON THE BEACH You saw all the bands on T4, you may even have been there... but click on the link below for Mika's personal T4 postcard!

Gatagordinha Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I'll be interested to see how much they cut out of the track for the radio edit, as the album version is at least 30 seconds too long (prob more) to be an effective single for radio airplay. Mika seems to be quite a fan of the three-minute-single thing. *wonders* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, it's hard to imagine an edit, I'd prefer it untouched, but I've a feeling it'll be edited, at least a little:thumbdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikafish Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hmmm...I'm going to be upset if they edit it...i love every single note. But I guess if it's gotta be done...hell no...I don't care if it's gotta be done I'm still gonna be upset! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikafish Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 No, I don't either! I don't really listen to the remixes tho. Didn't like the Big Girl remix on the CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAK1 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 OOOHH! The Trophy Twins lied to me. So it's Happy Ending next then, not Relax, which is what The Trophy Twins reported on the day of the T4 show. Naughty DJs getting it wrong. No matter though, I love Happy Ending, with the choir at the end, it's bound to get to No.1. Can't wait to see what the video looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CazGirl Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Am I the only one who really doesn't wanna hear a club remix of Happy Ending no i dont wanna hear a club version of it either, happy ending is beautiful as it is. I'd rather hear .. perhaps, another demo or something or other, like on Love Today or Big Girl. But hey, whatever Mika chooses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
