B!anka Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Wow, I have spent literally hours reading to the reports thread and I only have a couple of things to say: 1. I don't really feel as if I am in the middle of Europe anymore, you guys, really helped with you vids and pics! 2. I am really happy for all of you who went there and actually got to meet him. But I have one question. Let's say that I'll go to a concert this summer and I am now an MFC'er...is there a possibility that this level of my fanhood cannot assure me a M&G after the gig? ...I'll put it in less words:naughty: : ok, I understand that a mod had to carry the burden of arranging this meeting for you. If a mod won't do that in the future, then we should say good-bye to any kind of meet and greet? I am aware that you guys can't predict future but...(sorry but you really got me thinking bout my future Mika experience to which I give a lot of thinking anyway...it would be my first) 3. The songs are fantastic and you know, I read your "dissection" and I never thought I'd react this way...I'd thought I'd be really cool with it....in case of "admitting" anything...I mean this is what we should all be prepared for any moment but it kinda brought tears to my eyes and I never believed it would. Never thought I could get so emotional about it. Today was another one that proved me that being a Mika fan can result into lots of first-times...just as John said. And I sure CAN NOT WAIT for him to come back to tour Europe...I guess I'll queue from like 6 in the morning...I have already made myself a plan for that day: plenty of water, a blanket to sit on, cameras charged, changing clothes, his present and a banner for the concert. A bientot, Bianca xx Edited April 16, 2009 by B!anka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakie Doke Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 i've been a Mika fan since the start, even though i'm a 'new' MFC'er. damn i wish i'd been here to be part of the early discussions. It is sooooo awesome being here to discuss the new album though, right? Okay, so we should really finish off the lyrics, I'm just stuck on one line (So this is mostly lovempls' fabulous work) (You can hear the last verse best in Nono's video) Toy Boy I’m a wind-up toy in an up down world If you leave me all alone, I’ll make a mess for sure I’ve a heart of gold and the smartest styles Leave me in the dark, you’ll never hear me cry More than an illustration Points of articulation Come to life on a brass spring Such a wonderful plaything It’s a cruel cross that I have to bear Come a little closer I’m going to pull your hair More than just a toy in a patch-blue suit Hold me in your arms I’m just a boy like you But your mama thought there was something wrong Didn’t want you sleeping with a boy too long It’s a serious thing in a grown-up world Maybe you’d be better with a Barbie girl You were that I adored-ah But you left me in Georgia Toys are not sentimental How could I be for rental? She’s the meanest hag that has ever been Pulled out my insides with an old safety pin I’m the sorest sight, now I feel like trash Clothes are made of rags and they don’t even match So she dressed me up as the man she loved Then threw me in a box when she had had enough Now the light of day I no longer see She stuck her voodoo pins where my eyes used to be Accidentally tragic Victim of her black magic How’d a boy who’d so loved you Now be so afraid of you? On a long lost day when you’re grey and old Would you be there remembering your old toy boy? When your *something* Tell them the story of a boy like me OooooOOOooOoOOoooOOOO...

agathaxxx Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 oh god, i LOVE the tone of his voice in 'Toy Boy' especially the lower notes!!!! amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikas_gal07 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 was very nice of him not to play it though Extremely !! How weird though ! Not listened to "rain" in months apart from the snippet of the Vlog !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 It's still processing, but here's my video of "Toy Boy"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPkpmlhNtMA Goodnight. Thank you so much for this version! This was the first time I was able to listen to the whole song, and even if I don't understand parts of the song and even can’t hear it all….I can understand this much: He is a brilliant singer/songwriter and I love how he is flirting with the audience. Thank god…he’s back…and he’s good…I have been a little worried to have my expectations and dreams about a future for him shattered…but now I’m just going to relax…he is doing fine and I can sit back and enjoy the whole thing!

Gatagordinha Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Sorry if this has already been said..but does anyone think Toy Boy is the 'cinderella' song from the second New Music blog? The lyrics and tempo fit that music. Or am I being totally obvious now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kata Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hearing them all again, I think Good Gone Girl is my favourite, but Toy Boy a close second Think the clap thingy will be good when you're there clapping along, but I don't like it much when I just watch it on youtube...and the last one is just a bit too country for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually liked the part on the vlog, but the other version is stuck in my head anyway That's why i was scared to listen to the new songs before getting the album, but now I'm glad I did - two of them are fab at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewokwicket Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 After watching the videos on youtube, it just doesn't seem like it is over a year since we have seen him on stage. It's SOO nice to see him back and enjoying himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatagordinha Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I think Toy Boy is gonna go down well. and all of them actually that one just stood out a bit. I agree. It has that playful quirky thing which sets Mika apart, plus the lower notes in his voice are fantastic and will surprise a lot of non-fans and haters.
