Gatagordinha Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Check out Sariflor's HD video. Now that you've said it, I'm like 90% sure it is "munter". Watch his lips, too. I can hear the "n" sound, and I'm not hearing a "p" sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XILstP_D3DA Having watched that, I am now at least 95% sure it's munter. I'm quite excited now. Lip reading is a wonderful thing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daisylou Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 You guys!... Not only am I going to sleep with this tune going around my brain after listening to the Mp3 version, I am gonna have to watch it a million times too now...the pain and suffering having to watch MIKA so much I did watch one version and SOUNDS like strange little world but LOOKS like crazy world. So Mana is probably right. Why do we bother....are we crazy? Ok yes don't answer that lolol xxx ps. So hope he prints a lyrics page in the cd booklet pps. you do realise I might have a whole new song if I watch it rather than just listening lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soaring Simpson Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 It sounds like munter to me but I'm not convinced. I've never heard it before, not even on telly- where's it from? Kensington? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewokwicket Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Those painted ponies That you've ridden all before Not sure if it has been mentioned before but does any think the painted ponies could refer to those horses on a carousel ride??

"Could you believe Those same old phonies Those painted ponies That you've ridden all before" Yes! Implying that it's the same old thing, going 'round and 'round. Like a carousel. I love it. Kudos!

Ruth Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) I listened and listened and I wanted the word to be punter, but I really heard munter; my son says it's like minger - usually applied to girls but doesn't have to be.

Ruth Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Munter??? You really hear munter???? Yes, I do.

Do you agree with Time stands still? I was really pleased, getting that, and no-one has commented I agree! But I'm still a little bit confused about the "her name was April but she was hateful" line. I mean... it'd make more sense with "sacred" instead of April, like England said. You know... the contradiction sacred-hateful. Otherwise I don't get what the "but" has to do there, contrasting April and hateful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Do you agree with Time stands still? I was really pleased, getting that, and no-one has commented Hmm, I'm not hearing that. Well, seeing that, specifically - his lips don't seem to move right to be "time stands still." Especially the word "time". It almost sounds like "That stands to the life you wanted," but that doesn't make a ton of sense. Now i hear munter too and his lip synch seems like it as well.. I'm certain it's munter. In fact, if it's something else on the studio version I'm STILL going to think he sang "munter" live, and it's another "downright whore/downright bore" switcheroo. I agree! But I'm still a little bit confused about the "her name was April but she was hateful" line. I mean... it'd make more sense with "sacred" instead of April, like England said. You know... the contradiction sacred-hateful. Otherwise I don't get what the "but" has to do there, contrasting April and hateful. You're right the use of "but" doesn't make much sense. The only way I can make it make sense is to assume he's contrasting the idea of "April" being a sweet, innocent name with someone who is dark and hateful. That said, I definitely hear "April".
