camille* Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Elle Me Dit back to #1 in French charts this week! Just to give a few details about my previous post, EMD is #3 in downloads and the physical single entered the charts to #1 It's good but I don't think it will last much longer which is pretty normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilStar Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 http://www.journalmetro.com/culture/article/1004724--mika-inspiration-francaise merciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Translation from me:teehee: MIKA: French Inspiration Even if he continues to report the date of his upcoming CD (which should be otu "sometime in 2012"), the inteest towards Mika doesnt seem in fade in french countries. Because not only is this young Brit-born in Liban and raised in France- speaks perfectly well in French, he also decided to make us remember him with his first french song, the bouncy Elle me dit. Since the clip has been put online, its been seen almost 10 million times, which tells alot abou the popularity of the Grace Kelly author,no matter in what language he speaks. Musically, Mika admits having been inspired by the Rita Mitsou*ko (Andy, to be exact)and the famous Video Killed the Radio Star from The Buggles to write this new song. But visually, his references are from the cinema. He first quotes the director François Ozon, for is colorful esthetic, of course, but also for one of his actress, Fanny Ardent, appearing in a red dress. Another inspiraton of him was Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums). Everything here breathes of happiness and carefreness: basically, something to help the fans be patient while thy wait for the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Mika Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) I was studying Russian, with headphones on my ears (obviously there was only mika's songs), when suddenly my two roommate screamed at the same time: "Dorotaaaaaaaaaaa, Mikaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ". I was: "what, where, how?". It turned out that after many months of waiting, some (maybe not some but one of the biggest) Polish radio station finally decided to play Elle Dit Me Apparently the presenter said something before the song, but my friends werent able to say what specifically ,because they're began carefully listening to only after the magical word "Mika":naughty: so,Mika finally on the Polish radio station Edited November 16, 2011 by Lady Mika Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
