Lucrezia Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Thank you so much Camille!! Interesting article! As I had thought, the press tends to make a scoop where there is no... I hope that one of them is as beautiful as Karen was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiibet Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Thanks for the translation, Camille! I can't understand where this "100 % French album" came from This was an interesting interview and reading it made me very excited about his new album. Not that we know when it's happening for real but just thinking about new music is exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guylainem123 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 really??? I´m absolutely relaxed and patient this time!!! oh i'm also relaxed, when i say nail biting, i mean of excitement of what it will sound like... not particularly the time frame. Though i do hope he has started to work on the album, it's a long process from "ideas" to "writing" to "recording" to "going on market" to "touring" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Mastin Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I love the interview. I love how Mika is bold enough to change his strategy, and to admit that he has done so. I've always thought of his career as an evolution, and never wanted him to stay in one place, career-wise. The most successful singers are the ones that are able to adapt, as Madonna has always done. The French songs will probably do well in France, Belgium and Quebec, or any other French-speaking country. But I think there will be English language songs for the rest of us, on the main album.

Alireine Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Interview for Télé 7 Jours Thank you Camille, you were fast! Did you guys see that over the top photoshopped front page of "Telepoche" ? https://twitter.com/MatthieuGrelier/status/426418274088546306/photo/1 it's just awful As awful as his wax statue at the Montreal Grevin museum EDIT: to me, it's as bad as if they tried to photoshop Barbara Streisand's face with a button nose I really don't like it Well.... it is So he changed his mind about sharing that. Just to point out he's human and he can have seconds thoughts on this as on every other topic: what to share, going in television, hiding or not, marketing strategies, his goals. I' m glad he doesn't freeze and stick all life long to his beliefs. As he said, he better die rather than never changing. I don't know jack squat about what he's going to do, but I'm happy he doesn't sacrifice himself to be consistent with something he did or told time ago. That would create more and more boundaries which every statement he would do. I'm sure I won't agree with my own posts in a year as well And whenever he will do something I don't like, I'll just won't buy it, as I didn't buy the swatch (too big and that mask is a kind of disturbing to me because of a nightmare I had as a child) Exactly, he said many times that it's natural and good for him to change his mind, and I totally agree with that really??? I´m absolutely relaxed and patient this time!!! I am like this too. But it's because it's my first time I'm still discovering so much from the 3 first albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamiam Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I don't mind doing it completely. It's kind of a hobby for me really Merci Camille - good for us that this is a hobby for you - I really appreciate your work!! - And again, it's a great interview - MIKA never disappoints me with his answers - and honesty, and as earlier I'm totally relaxed, but of course also excited at the same time - because of his new music, I'm sure it will be amazing ... Love,love me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwendin Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) I am like this too. But it's because it's my first time I'm still discovering so much from the 3 first albums Just like me. I'm so not tired of the previous 3 albums And a half (aka Songs of Sorrow ) (and I don't consider the Songbook not even a half, I appreciate him doing it, but I can't count it in the albums list, that would be cheating. And I believe he doesn't count it as well, since he still consider TOOL his latest album) I love the interview. I love how Mika is bold enough to change his strategy, and to admit that he has done so.I've always thought of his career as an evolution, and never wanted him to stay in one place, career-wise. The most successful singers are the ones that are able to adapt The more you speak your mind the more I think we are on the same page on many topics.

Louiza Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Loved reading all the info about the new album in those recent interviews! It's really exciting that there will be more songs in French! It's not that the language in which the song is written makes a huge difference since all of Mika's songs have incredible melodies, deep lyrics and are full of emotions but the French ones have that special something that I find really touching. For example Un Soleil Mal Luné, it's super sensitive, super beautiful:wub2: Cant wait to hear more about the new album and songs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
