Finkster Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Are you kidding?? Mika is honestly THE best live performer I have ever seen. (Trust me..I've seen some good people.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Sky Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Pompous??? 1 : excessively elevated or ornate - check 2 : having or exhibiting self-importance - check 3 : relating to or suggestive of pomp : magnificent-check Yup, we love MIKA's pompous performance of Sweet Dreams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kates Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 How could anyone think that?! I'd imagine it would be hilarious- knowing Mika (well interviews I've seen) And nightmares?! Are you kidding me?... If that's even what they said about the covers, I forgot, haha. Is it funny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The documentary is extremely funny as far as I've seen it before my mother interrupted ("Can you turn it off? I don't like Mika":sneaky2: ) I loved the part where Cherisse, Mikey and Mika walk around in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura..×× Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Ah well, he's got his opinion, we've got ours! He's just one guy, we're a whole army ( )! This guy has obviously never been to a concert and experieced the vibe (no humour?! No strong voice?! ). Just let him say whatever he wants, we know better !

EnFa Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 that's a matter of fact..and we all know how things get evolved in the summer:cool: Exactly! But the show is still awesome (form what I've seen from it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatagordinha Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I have not seen the DVD yet but (rhetorical question coming up) is this not the very same performance of Love Today?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11fKfRMFC24&feature=related If this reviewer is criticising that voice - then it's true. He has no ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get.Off.Of.My.Cloud Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I don't want to seem mean but...was it really necessary this dvd at this point in his career? I don't know, I think it is too early for an artist to make a dvd. I know, I know, he has lots of fans but I think he exagerates (even though he is Mika and we all know how excentric the boy is:bleh:) Anyway, I will wait to see the DVD (it's gonna take a few years:naughty: ) and then I'll discuss about it.

lcmlcm Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I think it is too early for an artist to make a dvd. Agree Normally a singer at least takes a few years to do so many things... But he did it all in a year........ well, that's becoz he's abnormal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlindee Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Mika has achieved (Wait, was that a right line? ) so much in just a year! I don't know who it was who has critisized this dvd and Mika's voice, but he or she must be really def:blink: I WANT THAT DVD SOOOOO BAD!!!!

mac1718 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I loved the DVD! I though it was amazing! stupid review-writer person. and yes, it is early, but he managed it! My dad keeps on saying : "he has 5 singles from one album?!" I think the dvd was just to mark the end of this era, you might like to say. I bet it'll be a new album next year with a whole new theme, look, live show and set of characters to go with it and I can't wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I'd agree wth you, but Mika isn't normal and it hasn't been a normal year for him! He's had such an incredible year and made such an impact that I think the DVD is justified, and we shouldn't underestimate his selling power - his 'people' were hardly going to look a gift horse in the mouth were they? Also, he's the kind of artist who is going to constantly evolve his live shows and so it makes sense to capture his 2007 set-up on DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavi Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 DVD review: Mika - Live In Cartoon Motion The problem with much of Mika's show on this DVD filmed in Paris is the lack of humour. But here, Mika forgets to laugh at himself; the result being a really pompous cover of Eurythmics' 'Sweet Dreams', which will give you nightmares. The sublime 'Grace Kelly' sees curly bouncing back with relish but again, the voice is not as strong as you would like. LACK of humour:blink: Well if that cover will give nightmares, well then.....bring it on cause i like it Voice = not strong!!! WHAT THE.....he clearly can't hear and as i said before he was ill then and he sounded brill....I would like to see someone up on stage singing and jumping around sick and still manage to sing awesome!

NO..... i mean not in 2008, isn't too WAY fast??? only HK singers would release 8 albums in 2 years or 18 albums in 6 years (just checked, it corrects) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmylou Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 like my brother pointed out the other day his album was released at the beginning of the yeatr and in the uk it has never left the top tem albums in a full year - now thats an achievement!!!! go mika!!!

rockinbabzz Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 releasing one album every year isn't that strange right? i mean, sure, he should take his time to make it the best album he could possibly make, but if he starts recording after this tour it should be possible to release it still in 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, Mika is something different, a breath of fresh air and obviously the world has embraced him and his sound. Mika won't go out now and release 8 albums in a year, perhaps he will release one next year since he already said he is writing the songs and I assume he already has a lot of them, or perhaps in 2 years. But he will wait until he's completely satisfied and that's what makes Mika Mika. And there will always be people who don't like him which is absolutely Glenn's case. That's with good music, some people are too deaf to hear it and bash it. But that's their problem...we have something amazing:thumb_yello: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
