krysady Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 So they cut a lot of applause, the instrumental pause with Ida, some Mika's talk and Blue. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdingyourdrink Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 That was really wonderful to watch back, they completely captured the atmosphere and I’m so glad the wind didn’t affect the sound quality too much (you definitely could hear the wind from time to time, but more in a “ah it’s there” kind of way), I was a bit afraid it would. What I also really liked was that I could now hear the nuances in the orchestra’s instruments much better, I very much enjoyed that. 33 minutes ago, krysady said: So they cut a lot of applause, the instrumental pause with Ida, some Mika's talk and Blue. They did cut a lot of applause… we were much more enthusiastic than that!!! But I think the microphones were more directed towards the orchestra and none to the public, which could explain a lot. Also they fixed the little part in C’est La Vie where the choir didn’t set in right away, I’m actually quite impressed how that was done! I wonder if they used the audio recording from the soundcheck the day before, it’s entirely possible. For those who would like to know what I mean, there it is: IMG_2213.mov Also, I am very relieved they didn’t film our sobbing faces but I LOVED that they captured the Banana’s On Tour and also Amy wearing her beautiful suit which she handcrafted herself. And all the other colourful people I could recognize in the public. Also the dancing in the fosse!! It was a typical Mika gig 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and I am sure they can process the sound and erase the wind's sound from the recording, it ended up very smooth indeed. 24 minutes ago, holdingyourdrink said: What I also really liked was that I could now hear the nuances in the orchestra’s instruments much better, I very much enjoyed that. Oh, and the beautiful nuances of the sky during sunset, I didn't noticed it during the concert 29 minutes ago, holdingyourdrink said: Also, I am very relieved they didn’t film our sobbing faces Tears? what tears??

I wonder if they used the audio recording from the soundcheck the day before, it’s entirely possible. During the gig , I thought that it was Mika who started too early . So, they maybe just erased the sound from his microphone for a few seconds . If they'd use the soundcheck , it's strange that they didn't use it for "Je sais que je t'aime" when he clearly missed some words .

holdingyourdrink Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Can I just emphasize again that there were two heroes that night: 1) the lady holding the sheet music for Simon LeClerc; 2) Geraldine and her hairspray. Mika’s hair DID NOT MOVE 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellody Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I definitely prefer his hair when there's freedom for the curls. Luckily Ida's hair wasn't sprayed that much, it looked awesome blown by the wind. I didn't look over to her much at the gig, as Mika was right in front of me - but in the video I loved seeing the wind in her hair, and same for the musicians & choir. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't look over to her much at the gig, as Mika was right in front of me - but in the video I loved seeing the wind in her hair, and same for the musicians & choir. I loved the wind. It suited the drama of the setting perfectly. And I totally totally agree about the curls, but for his symphony concerts Mika seems to prefer his hair to be tamed. And his body. So contained. But fortunately for this one he didn’t totally tame himself. He was well behaved and a proper gent but more physical than in other such concert gigs, which I liked a lot. I also felt like I could see his heart this time. He felt very emotionally present. His eye contact with the camera was intense. His performance of Last party totally grabbed my guts, although Hero was the song the audience seemed to find the most compelling, for obvious reasons. I love the knowing look Ida gave him when they kissed after Happy Ending. And — What a hoot when he introduced Sheet Music Lady!!!! my favorite part? How many people with gray hair were in the crowd!! It seemed like about a quarter of the audience was older folks, when they panned the crowd. Didn’t see as many in the closeups tho. I also adored that couple who were wrapped in each other’s arms after C’est la Vie, I think it was. Like they couldn’t believe where they were. My second favorite thing was the party Mika—and his French audience—threw for Jane Birkin. It was wonderful. When they would not let the song end…his delight…the love … I love Mika audiences. Of course this is only about the people that I see on videos, not close to what all you folks who see him live could say, but there is a personal interplay and responsiveness that is uniquely Mika. Not 7000 screaming cheering mob of fans, but people who specifically appreciate what they are hearing and their specific feelings about him. It’s very touching.

Me too, I think it would look weird for a gig or festival to have his hair not moving at all, while he's running and jumping around. But I agree with @QueenBigFat, for a symphonic concert ( especially being recorded for TV), he looked impeccable that way, so dapper with that hairstyle and elegant suite Geraldine really did a great job! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first I wasn’t sure how it was going to look on TV, because everyone’s hair was blowing in the wind except for Mika‘s, but it really was perfect when I rewatched the concert. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
