charlie20 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) I must say that I like it a lot even if I am not used to listen to rap, but Fedez has a nice voice and italian is such a beautiful language. Mika's parts are so melodic and his voice . I wonder if Mika has composed those parts? What bothers me is that I can't really get the sense of the song and the connection between Fedez's and Mika's parts. They sound like two different songs put together without a theme. I just bought the song.... oh well it's not so bad the song even if it gives me the impression that they are two different songs: one about love and one about something that I still don't understand... By the way, it's nice, the sound is catchy and if it will be released as a single it could make success. I'm very curious to listen the Mika's version where there's no Fedez. I think, in a sense, it's like that, two different songs put together. This is what Fedez said, in an interview with "Panorama", about the song: "He (Mika) had a musical background, piano and voice, with only the chorus/refrain. I added to it the verses, and then we have produced it. I think that in this historical period you can also mix the electronic to the piano. The title? Beautiful Disaster " Edited October 9, 2015 by charlie20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuna Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Does this mean the OSM disc won't be released on its own? Think it would be like TBWKTM Sadler's well live..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuna Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 haha it's such a nice try and interesting combination. It reminds me the legendary grammy performance by EMINEM and Elton John .. it's obviously a bit weaker than that (those two were legends, you know) but if Fedez and Mika try this kind of cowork they could make something amazing after... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teenagedreamer98 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Ok, I have heard this song now and I have mixed feelings. I think "Beautiful Disaster" sums it up well actually! I wasn't very keen on the rap parts. I'm not very keen on rap as a general rule, sometimes I think it can work well in a song, but I didn't like it in this, I'm afraid. For one thing, Fedez was rapping far too fast! Maybe if the rapping had been slower, it would have worked a lot better. However, I find Mika's singing very beautiful indeed. It reminded me a bit of the chorus of Underwater, actually. Does anyone else feel the same? I loved the bridge leading to the final chorus, when Mika's voice was echoing. In fact, the latter part of the song was my favourite because there was no rap. I'm sorry, but the rap ruined it for me. Just my opinion, so no offence to anyone who likes it! On the whole, I'm not sure if I like the song or not. I'll have to listen to it a few times more to make my mind up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyaboutmika Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) I have always liked rap , Beautiful Disaster takes me high, there's no other way to describe it It's goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood I want Mika and Fedez to make more songs together And I'm so happy it's number one on the day it' s out Thanks a lot for the lyrics and the translation from Italian to English girls Edited October 11, 2015 by crazyaboutmika 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyaboutmika Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I tried to translate Fedez's part, it maybe doesn't make much sense because there are a lot of puns in Italian, but just in case you were wondering what he says, here it is. I keep repeating it in my mind just not to fall asleep I stay awake because the best is yet to vanish to dream about a different way of getting up again like the rain falling without ever getting hurt where did you come from? says an uncertain voice I don't know but we entered by an open wound the scars tell us to stay among the weaks we talk using the permanent sign language like yesterday you weren't there hereditary problems, unlucky heiresses because who criticizes you often is the first one to slay you when throwing a stone means more than a plea they told us not all that glitters is gold but they said so because all that glitters is theirs now I want to shout out loud, life sucks but the view is amazing I take those pieces of life I lived by mistake and I turn them into little worthy emotions some live no matter what, some live locked up in a bunker those who live in the light can see the beginning of the tunnel with a heart of stone, you with a guilty conscience sick and tired of sticking our heads in the anger eating the dirt, flavoring the soil now we seek peace even at the cost of making war against you with 24 thousand kisses maybe Judas would've wiped us out feeling inadequate, feeling one of many a wasted occasion turns men into thieves of regrets predatories born with a guilty soul report your life for misleading happiness and to all of us grown up in dark rooms where every asshole lies and the truth does too Grazie mille Laura 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellody Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 i've only listened to the 1:30 snippet so far, and decided i won't buy that song but wait for the album. i think the song could have been good, the contrast between mika's part and the rap is a good idea - but while i always thought the point of rap is rhythm, i can't make out *any* rhythm in some parts of the rap. this just hurts my ears. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 but while i always thought the point of rap is rhythm, i can't make out *any* rhythm in some parts of the rap. this just hurts my ears. Exactly, totally arhythmic and monotonous. It's awful. The appeal of rap is the rhythm, the phrasing, the expression. Fedez only changes his "expression" by raising the volume of his voice. Which is unfortunate because he seems to have a very clear and rich voice. Maybe it helps to know Italian but there is nothing appealing here if you do not understand the lyrics.

IngievV Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I can actually listen to it on Spotify. It's okish. Not amazing. Not so bad that it makes me want to cry. That is something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I already said the lyrics don't make sense to me either and I'm a native Italian speaker XD. Maybe I'm just too dumb to understand, but it really sounds like casual sentences and puns thrown together. It's supposed to be witty, but meh... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's not so common for a track that hasn't been released as a single and there isn't even any radio play or a video yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
