Give him a break. He was put on the spotlight and most had probably never played it before... I still love him, but I do wish he had gotten the lyrics right. He was probably just nervous because he'd never played a Queen song before (I'm guessing) |

His music is so poppy compared to Queen's. He couldn't do what Freddie does, not even a quarter of what Freddie could do. He can't sing hard rock music. He'd be better doing a cover of Britney Spears "One More Time" than Queen's "Hammer To Fall" His songs are catchy and all, and he's a great vocalist, but, he's not in the same area as Freddie. Freddie's never sang anything as poppy as the songs Mika sings, except maybe that song Freddie was singing in his bathtub which, the video to that, has been on numerous documentaries about Freddie. |

i watched the first 38 seconds and clicked back. that was THE worst performance of Killer Queen i have EVER seen. That was my first favourite Queen song to, so in a way i feel a bit offended. But i guess he was put on the spot... |

im tired of people comparing this noone guy with freddie first of all, this guy is beggining his career, and, sincerely, i think he wont get too far second, i dont like his pop based music tird, he's a wannabe he's always trying to be freddie, and he's not able to sing a couple verses of killer queen |
The Real Wizard 31.01.2008 11:00 |
He has probably never played or sung the song, and he did a half-decent job. Do you think Freddie would have been able to do the same with, say, I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor? Do I need to point to the clip of Spread Your Wings from Osaka 82 where Freddie forgets most of the words and chords? Point and case, they were both human. The fact that Mika couldn't perfectly pull off a Queen song when put on the spot doesn't disqualify him as a songwriter, musician, or performer. Being dogmatic about one's love for Freddie or Treasure Moment won't accomplish that in the long run, either. |
Wiley 31.01.2008 11:09 |
He's not trying to be Freddie but I understand people comparing him to Fred. The press always wants to say a given artist is "the NEW __(insert successful artist from the past here)__" and that is so unfair. As many people pointed out, Mika was put on the spot there and he feels embarrased. He goes along with it unrehearsed and surely having never played the track live. It comes out badly, big deal. I'm 100% sure he has the vocal and piano playing skills to perform Killer Queen almost perfectly, and there's no doubt about it. Could he write something as "good" (subjective term)? I don't know. People seeing this video as "the ultimate proof that Mika a is a talentless Freddie wannabe" are just stupid. See it in context, damn it! |

!Jake! I agree, that was the point I was trying to make. Queen music is UNIQUE and I don't think anyone can create music on the same level. |

Off the top of my head -and just because I'm listening to it- give a listen to Bowie's Life on Mars? and tell me it is not "on Queen's level" (whatever the hell that is). You might limit your choice to English speaking popular rock artists. No need to go into Classical composers or anything. Still, you'll find some surprises, maybe. |

Euhm ok, that was just plain ol' .. well to keep it nice, I'll say bad. I must say, I like some of the songs Mika sings, but this time, he really SHOULD go and put his head down a toilet which is being flushed, this was really, REALLY bad. Blah. |

But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for just a moment. If you're still convinced that's a fact (bearing in mind that "fact" is defined as a piece of information that can be proven to be true by testable measures), then tell me a random opinion you have about music that isn't a "fact". I'd like to see how you differentiate "opinions" from "facts".

I just met Mika for the second time on Thurday night and I have to say he is insanely nice and talented. |

Terrible. The cover that Panic! at the Disco did was slightly better, shitty quality video, but at least they know the words. link |

That was horrible. I think Mika has talent, but his songs don't do anything for me. |

Seldom have I seen a thread filled with so much unintelligent conversation. First: This video with Mika is tongue in cheek, and meant to be pure fun. You (the one's that do) can't seriously draw a conclusion from this clip that Mika is talentless?? Come on! This is beyond me. And. To say that Mika is a bad composer, not talented, and so on. How is music measured? By technical complicity? Sales? You tell me! Regardless of how you see it, there is no doubt that Mika has released a VERY successfull album, he has sold-out shows, and works his arse of. And to you Treasure Moment: Write me a no.1 record and then we can start a conversation! You have said some stupid things here, which raised my eyebrows. Your arrogant bragging is quite off putting to say the least. "he is overrated as hell and couldnt compose 1 of the songs my band can compose and that is a fact" - Ok nice, good one :) "...Though freddie and him both are gay freddie didnt move and act like this guy, this guy sucks and i dont see what the fuss is about." - What do you mean? "if you think mika has talent then you dont know much about songwriting quality." - WOW!! Here you are really going over board... hehe... Bastard, get a life! |

Thomas Tønnesen im saying how it is, if you cant understand it its not my fault. Britney spears sells alot of albums too, i guess she is a good artist too....... sure he is better than britney spears, what im saying is that he is an amateur and highly overrated and can in NO WAY be compared to my band OR Queen. |
Borhap80 05.02.2008 05:43 |
I myself don't judge music from sales. But there's no point in denying that it has something to say. If you don't get out of your basement rehearsal room after some time, and don't get connected with people, you will get fed up with your project. And back to Mika. You say: "sure he is better than britney spears, what im saying is that he is an amateur and highly overrated and can in NO WAY be compared to my band OR Queen." - Mika creates his own music, he is very involved in staging his videos, he is in control of his own career in many ways. That's rare, and not amateuristic. - Hehe... "can in NO WAY be compared to my band OR Queen." Mika has done nothing to be compared with Queen. It's the critics and media that draws those parallels. Surely he namechecks Freddie on Grace Kelly, but that is homage, and just that. And for the best part. I have listened to your band Treasure Moment. What a blast. I wont say that i'm a very "schooled" musician although I have played in three bands during the last 10 years. Based on my background I would like to give a short review on your music. Treasure Moment - Is this a treasure(d) moment? - First and foremost, Treasure Moment sound like a bad hybridal copy of Dream Theater and Rhapsody. If you are searching for originality, you have come to the wrong place. A lot of the singing is off-pitch, and lacks the dynamics, timber, strength and stability of the beforementioned bands. Yes, they are probably ambitious, but they have a long way to go. Why? The production is basically not good, and the writing material is not very interesting at the moment. Music is about communication, this doesn't communicate too much to me. - Ok, this is based on what I heard on myspace.com. I do wish you good luck (not ironic) |

Its just a demo so of course its not the best production but who cares? its about the quality of the songs! if it doesnt comminucate with you then it doesnt, its not made for you, simple as that and you cant understand it. |

anyway................ I must say, I now own Mika's album, and....... its pretty good. There are some Freddie moments there, which god knows why the fuck that would be a bad thing... The albums pretty good. Very enjoyable. Its a feel good album.. So, to anyone who doesnt like him, well, thats cool, but he's not all that bad... pretty good. |
