I know MIKA through the youtube, after listening his new song called" We are Golden", I m interested more in this young singer. "We are Golden" is a pop song, many ppl said pop songs are so common and they dun like this type of song. But I think a good song is a good song, which isn't depend on which type of music it's from. And "We are Golden" has an energetic melody, once u listen to it, u'll naturally sing along! And the lyrics are direct and I like this part the most!
"Teenage dreams in a teenage circus
Running around like a clown on purpose
Who gives a damn about the family you come from
No giving up when you're young and you want some"
When we go for our dream or target, we are just running around, and cannot really get what we want! But if u're still young, u still have the "fire", plz dun give up and carry on to run around until u succeed in one day!
Beyond the music, the cover of his new album really attracts me, the style of the cover of all MIKA's CD is childish, like the illustrations of old children's books. But when the child-like cover matches MIKA's pop song, things become stylish!!
Actually, if the CD cover is the just a picture of mika.....i won't have the interest to listen to his song(i know this's not a good habit, cuz i would miss many fantastic songs!). And that's why the CD cover is also very important! As the CD cover somehow can show the personalities of that singer and what style of song he/she is singing! And ppl nowadays can easily download(legally and also illegally) music from the internet, so a good cover of the CD can somehow attract more buyers. And this time MIKA's CD cover really attract me....
P.S. I also found that a book released by MIKA called " Songs For Sorrow"...when u look at his picture, please also have a look to the lyrics of the songs, they are related!!!!!!!
