FralovesMika Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 The shirts of our candidate for the Pulitzer Prize have a contagious disease that have aired to the pillow too. Residents of Portofino fear now become stripes! Alert and panic at the harbour. Ooooooooh Allegra!

CazGirl Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 That is a BEAUTIFUL letter, the one about him and his family driving to Paris, how he always felt awkward and his time at the Royal College of Music. He wrote it really well. Bloody hell Mika, write us another blog will you?! You're really good at it.

Soaring Simpson Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Is this for real? I really can't see Mika writing a colum in a mag. It takes him ages to even tweet us!! But if it is real I wish him luck, and at least Microsoft Word checks the spelling. If it can read Italian of course! Oh I can- think how brilliant those random arty blogs were- I loved them all. I think he'd have kept them up longer, as they were really on a subject that excites him, if he'd had a more stimulating response And that article (english version only, I'm afraid) is just lovely. Were the gorgeous boating pics with it? What sort of mag is XL Repubbica? Edited September 1, 2010 by Soaring Simpson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allegra Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 The text in italian is not so good. I think it is not M fault or the translator fault. It just does not rock. A not original and valuable style. Original english text sounds better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
