Adhara Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 The ones that make me cry almost always I listen to them are Paloma, Any Other World (😢) and Happy Ending. Any Other World is especially heartbreaking to me, it makes me feel sad and lonely but then I listen to Platform Ballerinas or We are Golden or any other, start jumping and singing and the sadness disappear 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evergreen Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hey everyone ☺️ Mika has many songs that feel touching and would make you shed good tears.. But I think the songs that feel rather the saddest to me and would always make me want to curl up and cry are Toy Boy and No place in heaven, I straight up couldn't listen to toy boy alot at the time it would trigger some painful feelings (which is strange given that Mika's music is the only music I could listen to when I felt down and would make me feel upbeat even if the song is suppose to be sad) I guess it was only Toy Boy that felt that way to me, that made me want to avoid listening to it alot at the beginning, and sometimes, No place in heaven ( that being said, Toy Boy is also one of my fav songs of him in that album) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It 's one of the first videos I saw of him. It's SFS acoustic tour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyaboutmika Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 (edited) I can't even listen to Over my shoulder nor to Toy Boy because they feel so sad to me. Porcelain is a bit the same and does make me cry. I rarely listen to it unless I am very sad. Edited June 23, 2020 by crazyaboutmika 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galapagonch Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 It might be a bit weird because it's not even close to being his saddest song but Good Guys made me cry once, haha. It's just such a painful melody to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I guess different songs affect us from our own experiences. I adore Happy Ending, but cannot listen to it, it just cuts too deep for me. Strangely I quite like OMS, I find it oddly comforting in its melancholy. The sadness there for me is that he was ever in a situation that compelled him to write it. And for some reason, the line in Tiny Love where he sings "My name is Michael Holbrook, I was born in 1983" always makes me tear up. The first times I heard "AOW" and "OM" too, although the sinfonia versions are now 2 of my faves. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikasister Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I'm sure that when I hear "Tiny Love" reprise, the part Joannie sings, I will feel sorry and probably makes me cry 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I just heard the demo of Intoxicated. Oh man. Beautiful, simple, but with pain. Instant tissues. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyaboutmika Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Les baisers perdus the very first time I heard it made me cry. So beautiful and so relatable for me. All those lost kisses my heart keeps sending to my first love will always get lost. I was in my car playing the album for the first time. I love it and it doesn't makes me cry all the time because it's conforting too. I wanted to hear Mika sing it live so much that in spite of everything my husband tries to stop me I managed to go and see I love Paris concert on May 26th 2016 and he Les baisers perdus live and I was crying so much. And I also got my Mika watch on that day and I got to meet and hug many members of the subs team for the first time. Good Wife tells my story too but it has always been very conforting to me and it never made me cry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Is "My Name Is Michael Holbrook" Mika's saddest album? Because "Blue," "Paloma" and the "Tiny Love Reprise" get me every time. I don't think any of the songs from any of his other albums make me cry. OK, maybe "Over My Shoulder" if I'm already in a somber mood. "Happy Ending" and "Underwater" move me, but I don't think they've ever made me cry. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange how time changes things. After a year of gigs, I'll happily play Happy Ending now, even find myself singing it sometimes. I mean, don't surprise me with it, but if I know it's coming I'm okay. I guess that's what the psychologists call 'exposure therapy'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linzijay Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Hurts is the saddest one for me because it is heartbreaking in lyrics and sound. I also find it very relatable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Porcelain can still make me cry depending on my mood, that song means so much to me. The first time I ever heard Happy Ending I cried. Not so much now, I can still feel emotional and moved by the song just without the tears. The only exception being when Mika performed it at the Roundhouse, I definitely cried then. Tiny Love Reprise has made me cry, especially after hearing about Mika's mum but now I can be more prepared for it and appreciate the lyrics a whole lot more without crying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Remix from the album is my favorite version of it) It must to be about the beat, that even with the lyrick, it's hopeful for me. Like looking back after surviving from all of it. I had to listen it again and I got actually suprised, that lyricks are actually in presens. In my mind I'm in future. The Remix is my favorite too, probably because it makes the sad lyrics a little happier. You do have a point about the survival aspect, too, which I never thought about much before 🙂I still love the song even when it makes me sad, because I like music that makes me feel something. I also think it has an important message: that we need to think about the words we speak to one another as humans.
