MIKA

So… I guess this would’ve all started way back in …. 2008 when I went on my first Explore trip. The Mika song, Elle Me Dit, is very popular amongst french teachers for some reason. Most likely because Mika enunciates so well but that’s not really what this post is about.

This post is about my recent decent into a giant MIKA obsession 🙂

It turns out that he has way better songs in English, some better songs in French as well. I wish younger me thought to look up this guy before. Although I never really liked Elle Me Dit so can’t really blame me. Anyway, I was watching The Voice : la plus belle voix, which is the French version of The Voice. Mika is very very eloquent when he speaks so I took an interest…. which lead me to finding a smattering of songs that I now love and almost know by heart from having played them so much the past few days AND I also found out that he speaks like a bazillion languages which has renewed my interest and motivation to learn as well. So yeah, I’m learning Italian now because he was a judge on the Italian X Factor for a few years.

And that’s kinda the summary of how I became a huge Mika fan and am now trying to learn Italian. Mica male, no? 😉
