I think I've not heard that.Yes, mika wrote it after 7/7 attacks in London...but in his particular wayThanks for the link. Alexander Berntsen from However, Mika's voice was criticized by Heather Phares from The animated music video for "Lollipop" was released in November 2007. There's particular contrast in it. Mika wrote the song as a message to his younger sister, warning her not to have sex too soon as it would "mean something very different to guys than it would to her".The little girl who appears at the beginning saying, "Hey! The juxtaposition of a cheerful tune with lyrics about being scared and terrified is ironic.
I've always thought that Relax, take it easy relates to experience which is very very very personal.
You can post now and register later. I'm too tired too search for it and too tired to remember what it said, but you can check it you want to.. but searching it.. sorry yeah no help, as usual .. but try search, ok?In 1 interview he sez its a song about the london bombings on the 7th of July last year... (or the year before).And on another interview he jus sed he wanted to make a laid-back sort of dance track. There's particular contrast in it. If it's either of them, the song is far heavier than I've always thought it to be. Relax- Again, Mika seems like he is depressed 'im screaming for help', but he cares about the person who is the main focus in the song 'relax, take it easy'. Relax (Love) There is an answer ... Mika's music is a kalidoscope of primary colours. Very ironic and confusing in brilliant way. It was officially the 62nd best selling "single" in the UK that week despite only being an album track. Maybe I've to ask this from Mika himself You both point out the contrasting nature of the lyrics against the tone or mood of the music...Yes it does demonstrate Mika's talent at song writing...You guys are WAY to good at this interpreting stuff
The line "playing with fire" seems slightly out of place: it refers to taking risks perhaps out of your league rather than dealing with bleak circumstances as the rest of the song does. I've always thought that Relax, take it easy relates to experience which is very very very personal. When the album was released, "Lollipop" had high numbers of downloads, even before it had been released as a single, charting in the Top 75 UK Singles Chart.In April 2007, it was released … Maybe I've to ask this from Mika himself I thought the same thing when I heard Relax, take it easy.This is a really thoughtful, in-depth analysis of the track.This thread is interesting! QUITE sureChristine: Well, it's the second verse where he sings "I hold my breath and wonder when..." Strange, I've never thought about the story behind it.Which one is it? On the other hand it's crying-for-help-song, on the other hand it's calm-down-song.
The next line aptly appeals to the universality of death and pain. The last verse is a contrast to the others with its more positive tone: it admits that the situation is bad but it appeals to solidarity and asks you to move on. "Lollipop" is a song by Mika from his 2007 debut album, Life in Cartoon Motion. Relax, oh, there is an answer to the darkest times It's clear we don't understand it But the last thing on my mind is to leave you I believe that we're in this together Don't scream, there are so many roads left Relax, take it easy Very ironic and confusing in brilliant way. Any Other World- This song is very sad, and I think Mika's purpose is to say that people can wreck other peoples lives. When I first heard Relax, take it easy I thought- wow this is really deep: Something happened that was controversial, life changing and full of meaning.
