chickadee Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Actually, I'm surprised no-one's commented yet on the matching stripey outfits! Very.... interesting! (Actually I think they're kind of cute.... and yes, so are wombats). Edit: You're probably gonna tell me that they wore those for the gig and you've all seen them already. Well, I haven't read that gig thread. And in a picture en masse like that, they're quite something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbm Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 And now that you're gone there will be a new blog.. I'm back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violet_sky Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 -sigh- I know Is it me, or does Mika look like he's in the bathroom in the pictures he posted on MikaSounds? That's what I was thinking I tried to stay restrained on the YouTube comments but here, I shall let it out. AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Gawd. The tone of his voice. Sorry Joe Dassin, this song was made for Mika's voice. Really. Haha, if we take all the songs that are made for Mika's voice, and make him record them, we'll have him pretty occupied for let's say, a decade Oh and this is the whole reason I came back to this thread in the first place. I wanted to post this. But Mika distracted me. Still, this pic was asking for it: Haha! I had thought of an apple For Mana, and whoever else wants it: http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16056 Thanks! I was about to complain how RealPlayer doesn't let me dl the thing and vixy is giving me the video but not the sound in the avi option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmbm Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 Is anyone else in love with the tone to his voice when he sings the line "du soir au matin"...? It's at about 1:57 in the video. My favorite part is 2:13-the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greta Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 in a resume of what he says hi it's mika and i'm here with dorion (i think) backstage in laroche francofolie dorion wrote the words to grace kelly in french he is telling me that i made mistakes while singing it in aix-les-bains (then he tells him what mistakes he did) then mika tries to say the words properly. then mika says that he is a dunkey for making mistakes. he explains to the guy that this is a blog. the guy has no idea what a blog is, he thinks it is live. the guy ask him where are the people? he said well this is a blog not live. he asked him if he knows anything about computers and internet. mika calls him a donkey. (jokingly) mika tells him that this is not a vacation movie, that it is a blog. they are backstage right now, but they have to go back to his hotel in ile doree to practice french grace kelly and also another french song, maybe from joe dassin or michel fugain. mika also mentions that politically, some people are saying he shouldn't sing at the francofolies, because he is not french. but he says that he was born in beirut, but his childhood was spent in france and that his first language was french. he gave an interview 20 min. before this blog and he said he was nervous but in the end, he will do what he does best and that is to sing on stage. but he will speak french. he has one hour to go practice and that he is wearing to watches to keep track of time voila! sacrebleu, je me pens twas{?!} Mikas! cest incroyable...non Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelzy Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Really, Kelzy, if you want (to understand) the best of Meeks (his long blogs) you really should learn French. I learnt French when I was alot younger, and can still read it ok, but it's more difficult to hear and understand it. But I'd like to learn again.. I could do with a tutor..

Pamette Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Mika worries too much and doesn't say/know the truth. The truth is that the Francofolies are made for French-speaking people who sings in French. It's not only for French people. There are people from Africa, Canada,... Even Air and another band (i can't remember the name but the singer is with Sofia Coppola) have never been invited although they're French because they sing in English. But this year, they invited people who doesn't sing in French like the Do and Mika because of their relationship with France. The Do didn't even sing a song in French. Don't call it "politics". It's only because it used to be a place only for French-speaking song. Mika, don't be a drama queen. It's not against you. It's not personal.

violet_sky Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 sacrebleu, je me pens twas{?!} Mikas! cest incroyable...non Ha, what a debut! Never heard/saw you curse in French! So cute I learnt French when I was alot younger, and can still read it ok, but it's more difficult to hear and understand it. But I'd like to learn again.. I could do with a tutor.. Hmm, I'd be willing to share [a particular] one with you But then I guess we'd learn the Mikancais instead of the grammatically correct thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
