Álbum My Name Is Michael Holbrook de Mika - Canciones

My Name Is Michael Holbrook

Reseña

El quinto álbum de estudio del cantante británico-libanés Mika se titula "My Name Is Michael Holbrook", un título con el reivindica su faceta más personal hablándonos de su humilde origen y de su familia.

Mika inició su carrera discográfica en 2007 con el álbum "Life In Cartoon Motion", un disco con temas sorprendentes que hablaban de ilusión y que ponían nuestra vida en positivo. Poco a poco, los posteriores trabajos del artista fueron haciéndose un poco más serios y oscuros, melancólicos y llegando incluso a coquetear con la electrónica de la mano de Pharrell Williams.

En 2015 regresó un tanto a sus orígenes con el álbum "No Place In Heaven", temas más vitalistas, en la línea de su primer trabajo.

En 2019 Mika regresa con el álbum "My Name Is Michael Holbrook" en un intento de reunir en una colección de trece canciones tanto la melancolía de algunos de sus trabajos como la ilusión y la alegría de sus primeras composiciones.

Temas como "Ice Cream" (en el que habla de la sexualidad) y "Dear Jealousy" (una melodía pop con aire retro) son ejemplos de lo segundo, mientras que "Paloma" (una oscura oda dedicada a su hermana) podría ser un ejemplo de lo primero.

"Tiny Love" habla de un amor que se fortalece, con la que Mika pretende transmitir que lo más importante es el amor que podemos entregar a las personas más cercanas a nosotros y el amor que nosotros mismos podemos recibir de ellos.

  1. Tiny LoveVer letra 4:05

    [X]

    letra de Tiny Love

    It's not a sunrise over canyons shaped like hearts

    It isn't bursting into song in Central Park

    It's not the outline of your face drawn in the stars

    It's a still-there-Monday-morning kind of love



    There's no dramatic declarations in the rain

    It's not a love that finds its pleasure after pain

    I couldn't train a bunch of doves to spell your name

    It's a don't-know-what-they're-missing kind of love



    Our kind of love

    It gets better everyday

    Crazy colors in the gray, our love

    Tiny love, it's a tiny love



    My life was dull

    I use to walk in a different way

    But now I'm dancin', dancin', dancin', dancin'

    Don't care who can see me dancin'



    Oh, tiny love

    Oh, tiny love

    Oh, tiny love



    This tiny love has spoken

    And bigger hearts get broken

    (Oh) Tiny love



    So small that you can't find us

    The world revolves around us

    (Oh) Tiny love



    This kind of love, it can be no other way

    One kind of love blows the other ones away

    Some times it's tough, others think we're acting strange

    But it's our kind of love, our kind of love



    Oh, tiny love

    Oh, tiny love



    My name is Michael Holbrook

    I was born in 1983

    No, I'm not losing my mind

    It's just this thing that you do to me

    You get me high on a tiny love

    You get me high



    And if it all goes bad

    And our love sets like the sun

    I give up a hundred thousand loves

    For just this one

    You get me high on a tiny love

    You get me high on a tiny love



    It's not a sunrise over canyons shaped like hearts

    It isn't bursting into song in Central Park

    We may be tiny to the world, but in our hearts

    We be giants with our tiny, tiny love

  2. Ice CreamVer letra 2:46

    letra de Ice Cream

    When I hear that sound, I know what's coming 'round

    Thirty-nine degrees, too hot for the bees

    The grass is turning yellow

    Streets are slow and mellow

    The faucet keeps on dripping

    And the clock, it keeps on ticking



    The swimming pool is laughing with its shiny, bright blue teeth

    Laughing at my body as it's sweltering with heat

    The smell of colored plastic baking in the sun

    Sweet just like frustration, my senses on the run



    I want your ice cream

    I want it lying in the sun

    I want your ice cream

    I want it melting on my tongue

    I want your ice cream

    I want it, whatcha waiting for?

    Ice cream, every bite

    All I want is more



    (Ice cream)



    Filling up the car, the red door burns my thigh

    How is this place still standing with temperatures so hot?

    Air and ground so heavy, thick with gasoline

    My hands won't keep me steady, hotter than I've ever been



    The swimming pool is laughing with it's shiny, bright blue teeth

    Laughing at my body as it's sweltering with heat

    The smell of colored plastic baking in the sun

    Sweet just like frustration, my senses on the run



    I want your ice cream

    I want it lying in the sun

    I want your ice cream

    I want it melting on my tongue

    I want your ice cream

    I want it, whatcha waiting for?

    Ice cream, every bite

    All I want is more



    (Ice cream)

    (You scream)



    I want your ice cream

    I want it lying in the sun

    I want your ice cream

    I want it melting on my tongue

    I want your ice cream

    I want it lying in the sun

    I want your ice cream

    I want it melting on my tongue

    I want your ice cream

    I want it, whatcha waiting for?

    Ice cream, every bite

    All I want is more

    letra de Dear Jealousy

    Jealousy, bring the music back to me



    Dear jealousy

    You know every part of me

    Hiding where no one can see

    I want you to leave



    Dear jealousy

    Why you smiling creepily?

    Your fingertips keep holding on

    But your tricks won't work on me



    Oh baby, I'm jealous, I'm jealous, I'm jealous of us

    I'm jealous of everything that I know we could be, but never really seems enough

    I'm jealous, I'm jealous of everyone

    Jealous of the man I used to be, and the man I could become



    I'm jealous of your face, of your lips, of your eyes

    Jealous of your house and the car you drive

    Jealous of your truth and I'm jealous of lies

    I'm jealous (Dear jealousy)

    Jealous of the ground beneath my feet

    Jealous of your mouth and the air we breathe

    Jealous of the way that you look at me

    I'm jealous



    It's coming out to get us, get us

    You better run away while it let us

    'Cause like it or not, everyday we get a little better at jealousy

    We got one thing in common, amen

    Only problem is that it's wrong, and

    In every single person, even you, even me, is jealousy



    Dear jealousy

    When did you move in with me?

    This bed wasn't made for three

    It's time for you to leave



    Oh baby, I'm jealous, I'm jealous, I'm jealous of us

    I'm jealous of everything that I know we could be, but never really seems enough

    I'm jealous, I'm jealous of everyone

    Jealous of the man I used to be, and the man I could become



    I'm jealous of your face, of your lips, of your eyes

    Jealous of your house and the car you drive

    Jealous of your truth and I'm jealous of lies

    I'm jealous (Dear jealousy)

    Jealous of the ground beneath my feet

    Jealous of your mouth and the air we breathe

    Jealous of the way that you look at me

    I'm jealous



    It's coming out to get us, get us

    You better run away while it let us

    'Cause like it or not, everyday we get a little better at jealousy

    We got one thing in common, amen

    Only problem is that it's wrong, and

    In every single person, even you, even me, is jealousy



    Jealousy

    Bring the music back to me

    I can't even write a song

    If you're standing over me (Dear jealousy)



    Jealousy

    I'll take the good times with the rough

    I don't need to be the richest guy, I know, enough is enough (Dear jealousy)



    Jealousy

    Stop confusing me

    I am sick of seeing everything in different shades of green (Dear jealousy)



    Jealousy

    It took a while for me to see

    I thought I was the one who's jealous but you're jealous of me (Dear jealousy)



    It's coming out to get us, get us

    You better run away while it let us

    'Cause like it or not, everyday we get a little better at jealousy

    We got one thing in common, amen

    Only problem is that it's wrong, and

    In every single person, even you, even me, is jealousy



    It's coming out to get us, get us

    We better run away while it let us

    'Cause like it or not, everyday we get a little better at jealousy

    letra de Paloma

    Oh Paloma, the skies have not been kind to you

    Oh Paloma, to weather the storm you'd paint it blue

    Silent in your struggle, living life like there's nothing wrong

    We didn't even notice, all we heard was the morning song



    Until the sky fell into pieces

    The night our life fell into pieces, too

    Try to fly against the wind

    Even with a broken wing

    As the sky fell into pieces



    My Paloma, where is a broken dove to go?

    Oh Paloma, if only you had let me know

    Was it joy or sadness that you felt on the night you flew?

    I found you fighting in the darkness

    There was beauty in there, too



    The night the sky fell into pieces

    And our life fell into pieces, too

    Try to fly against the wind

    Even with a broken wing

    As the sky fell into pieces



    Pieces hiding all the pain

    Don't put the pieces back again



    The night the sky fell into pieces

    And our life fell into pieces, too

    Try to fly against the wind

    Even with a broken wing

    As the sky fell into pieces

    The night sky fell into pieces

    And our life fell into pieces, too

    Try to fly against the wind

    Even with a broken wing

    As the sky fell into pieces



    Fly, Paloma, fly, Paloma, fly, Paloma

    One day you're gonna fly

    Fly, Paloma, fly, Paloma, fly, Paloma

    One day you're gonna fly, oh

    Fly, Paloma, fly, Paloma, fly, Paloma

    One day you're gonna fly

  5. SanremoVer letra 3:21

    letra de Sanremo

    Light brown skin

    Lips like Campari

    And words like soda

    Can I come over?



    Just let me in

    I wanna go where

    The nights are blinding

    The sun keeps shining



    If I could, I know where I'd be

    In a little town in Italy

    Close your eyes, come away with me

    Tomorrow we will be



    Sitting by the seaside

    Drinking up the sunshine

    You're here so why don't we go

    Dancing in Sanremo?



    We could be there in a couple of hours

    To the place with the yellow flowers

    Somewhere only we know

    Sunset in Sanremo



    To feel like this

    Is one in a million

    A suspended moment

    Can we seal it

    With a tender kiss?

    Out of a movie

    Made by Fellini

    Love that you need me



    Over there you shine like a star

    Doesn't even matter who you are

    Hold my hand and we'll travel far

    Close your eyes and we'll be



    Sitting by the seaside

    Drinking up the sunshine

    You're here so why don't we go

    Dancing in Sanremo?



    We could be there in a couple of hours

    To the place with the yellow flowers

    Somewhere only we know

    Sunset in Sanremo (Sunset in Sanremo)



    (Sunset in Sanremo)



    There you can shine like a star

    There's a place for you whoever you are

    I know you're tired of the rain

    But tomorrow we'll be



    Sitting by the seaside

    Drinking up the sunshine

    You're here so why don't we go

    Dancing in Sanremo



    We could be there in a couple of hours

    To the place with the yellow flowers

    Somewhere only we know

    Sunset in Sanremo



    Sitting by the seaside

    Drinking up the sunshine

    You're here so why don't we go

    Dancing in Sanremo?



    We could be there in a couple of hours

    To the place with the yellow flowers

    Somewhere only we know

    Sunset in Sanremo

    Tomorrow

    Tomorrow

    Tomorrow



    You and I, we're really

    Really not so innocent

    Consequences won't be easy

    From here, every road leads to regret



    But if this ain't what you wanted

    Then why'd you even come here? It's 2 AM

    If this isn't what you wanted

    Then why'd you put a smiley in your message then?



    Back seat, light off

    Window open, stereo on



    So kiss me in the backseat of my vintage Benz

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?

    When it comes, we can worry then

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?



    So kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?

    When you know how lucky we are

    Oh, tomorrow worry 'bout tomorrow



    Lyin' here together

    Stratchin' every second into more

    I know you're gettin' nervous

    But this is a mess worth fighting for



    But if this ain't what you wanted

    Then why'd you even come here? It's 2 AM

    If this isn't what you wanted

    Then why'd you put a smiley in your message then?



    T-shirt off, breeze comin' in

    Leather seat catchin' on the skin



    So kiss me in the backseat of my vintage Benz

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?

    When it comes, we can worry then

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?



    So kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?

    When you know how lucky we are

    Oh, tomorrow worry 'bout tomorrow



    But if you say you'll be there tomorrow

    Then I love



    Tomorrow

    Tomorrow

    Tomorrow

    Tomorrow



    So kiss me in the backseat of my vintage Benz

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?

    When it comes, we can worry then

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?



    So kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

    Oh, who gives a shit about tomorrow?

    When you know how lucky we are

    Oh, tomorrow worry 'bout tomorrow

    letra de Ready to Call This Love

    I'm afraid of the world

    Losing love in the dark

    Every time that I move too fast, I fall apart

    But I think you're the same

    And I know that you're scared

    Think too much of the end and we will never start



    We still sleep with the light on

    So afraid it'll go wrong



    Take your time if you need it

    But don't wait when you know you feel it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love

    Don't speak if you don't believe it

    But please say those words if you mean it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love



    I don't know what to say

    That's unusual for me

    First step is the hardest one you'll ever take



    You can see sparks with the light on

    Oh, let's be brave, turn the light off



    Take your time if you need it

    But don't wait when you know you feel it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love

    Don't speak if you don't believe it

    But please say those words if you mean it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love



    Are you ready yet?

    Are you ready yet? (Are you ready to this love?)

    Are you ready to call

    Ready to call this love? (Are you ready to call this love?)

    Are you ready yet?

    Are you ready yet? (Are you ready to call this love?)

    Are you ready to call

    Ready to call this love? (Are you ready to call this love?)



    Take your time if you need it

    But don't wait when you know you feel it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love (Are you ready to call this love?)

    Oh, take your time if you need

    But don't wait when you know you feel it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love (Are you ready to call this?)

    Don't speak if you don't believe it

    But please say those words if you mean it

    And you're ready to call

    Ready to call this love



    Are you ready to call, ready to call this love?

    Are you ready?

    letra de Cry

    'Cause I can't be your slave to the rhythm

    I've got shackled on my feet

    Won't it be nice to get a little bit into you?

    It's just that I'm a little bit into you

    I can't be your bitch to the rhythm

    I won't be in love for me

    Won't it be nice to get a little bit close you?

    It's just that I'm a little bit into you



    Must be a reason why, a reason why we fall in love

    Give me a reason why I'm hurtin' for the both of us

    Must be a reason why, a reason why we fall in love

    Give me a reason why it hurts so much



    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry



    If it's only pain you deliver

    Then why does my heart not see?

    Why do I keep on findin' ways to be next to you?

    When no one makes me feel more alone than you?



    Must be a reason why, a reason why we fall in love

    Give me a reason why I'm hurtin' for the both of us

    Must be a reason why, a reason why we fall in love

    Give me a reason why it hurts so much



    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Don't make me cry)

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Don't make me cry)



    I'll be okay again

    I'll be okay again

    I'll be okay again

    I won't cry over you



    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Don't make me cry)

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Don't make me cry)

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Don't make me cry)

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Please, don't make me cry)

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Don't make me cry)

    Don't make me cry, cry, cry, cry, cry (Please, don't make me cry)

    letra de Platform Ballerinas

    Dancing in her platform ballerinas

    That's about as girly as she gets

    She ain't like no other señorita

    And she will never let you forget



    She says, "Don't believe everything you see

    That a girl wakes up with makeup and her heart on her sleeve"

    She says, "Better be yourself, you'll make it

    'Cause every other girl out there is taken"



    She says, "So come on"

    Dancing like she loves it with her best dress on

    Spinning, jumping, messing up her hair, but it doesn't matter

    'Cause that don't make her less of a girl

    And her hips she moves, grooving to the music like a woman do

    Throws her body in it not for me, not you, but for her

    And that don't make her less of a girl



    Dancing in her platform ballerinas

    Like she's dancing in her kitchen at home

    She says life is made up of decisions

    But that every one of them must be her own



    "Don't believe everything you see

    That a girl wakes up with makeup and her heart on her sleeve"

    She says, "Better be yourself, you'll make it

    'Cause every other girl out there is taken"



    She says, "So come on"

    Dancing like she loves it with her best dress on

    Spinning, jumping, messing up her hair, but it doesn't matter

    'Cause that don't make her less of a girl

    And her hips she moves

    Grooving to the music like a woman do

    Throws her body in it not for me, not you, but for her

    And that don't make her less of a girl



    When that song comes on

    She don't know the words, but she still sings along

    Everybody's laughing, but it doesn't even matter

    'Cause that don't make her less of a girl

    She don't have to aim to miss

    Blowing up her lips to make them best to kiss

    That won't even help to get a guy to kiss her better

    And that don't make her less of a girl



    She says, "So come on"

    Dancing like she loves it with her best dress on

    Spinning, jumping, messing up her hair, but it doesn't matter

    'Cause that don't make her less of a girl

    letra de I Went to Hell Last Night

    I went to hell last night

    Followed you there, I was standing by your side

    The saddest thing I've ever seen

    Made me angrier than I've ever been



    But in the darkest place, a saving grace

    After all we've been through

    Though it kills me to say this

    There's a little bit of God in you



    There's a little bit of God in everything

    From the sun in the sky and the tears that you cry (Ooh-ah)

    There's a little bit of God in everything

    From the dirt that we hold to our diamonds and gold (Ooh-ah)



    I finally realized just how lonely you have really been

    Why couldn't I see it before?

    Is that why you let the devil in?

    In the darkest place, I will follow you



    There's a little bit of God in everything

    From the sun in the sky to the tears that we cry (Ooh-ah)

    There's a little bit of God in everything

    From the dirt that we hold to our diamonds and gold (Ooh-ah)



    Ah-ah, ah-ah



    When you're dark and you're sad, and your future's just as bad

    There's a little bit of God in everything

    When you're hurt and you're sour, even in your darkest hour

    There's a little bit of God in everything

    From the king to the fool to the bastards back at school

    There's a little bit of God in everything (Getting all your diamonds and gold)

    And though you might not be in the finest company

    There's a little bit of God in everything (Getting all your diamonds and gold)

    When you're hurt and you're sour, even in your darkest hour

    There's a little bit of God in everything, oh (Getting all your diamonds and gold)

    From a priest to the whore to the men who start the war

    There's a little bit of God in everything (Getting all your diamonds and gold)



    And one day you will see

    Part of you is part of me

    There's a little bit of God in everything

    letra de Blue

    Blue is a feminine color

    Blue is deep and bold

    Blue is like no other

    As sacred as it's old



    Blue like the ocean's water

    But you're blue when it falls as rain

    Blue for your sons, not your daughters

    Blue not for pleasure but pain



    All this to say that it's okay

    No matter what life throws at you

    I will always love the blue in you



    I don't trust rainbows

    Made by the sun

    For a friend of many

    Is a friend of none



    Coming out of nowhere

    But quick to end

    Like any other

    Fair weather friend



    All this to say that it's okay

    No matter what life throws at you

    I will always love the blue in you



    Green is pretty useful too

    But not as deep and dark as blue

    Red like the flame that burns in you

    But the hottest part of it is blue



    Yellow beams its joyful power

    But bite a lemon, it tastes sour

    Why are humans cruel to you?

    You faithful friend, you truthful blue



    All this to say that it's okay

    No matter what life throws at you

    I will always love the blue in you

    letra de Stay High

    What comes up must come down

    I learn it in my science class

    No, I'm not that dumb

    Your fingertips (Your fingertips) upon my skin (Upon my skin)

    You bring sunshine to my window, baby let it in



    Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low

    Wherever we go, we're gonna get higher than the sun, my baby

    Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low

    Wherever we go, we're gonna stay high



    What comes up (What comes up) must come down (Must come down)

    But you and me, we're floating above the ground

    Our generation (Our generation) has so much gloom (Has so much gloom)

    'Cause there ain't no money left after the baby boom



    Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low

    Wherever we go, we're gonna get higher than the sun, my baby

    Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low

    Wherever we go, we're gonna stay high



    Don't let me down

    Not now 'cause I've been high for so long

    That I don't know how to come down

    Don't try, I don't even care if you lie, you and me

    Don't let me down

    Not now 'cause I've been high for so long

    That I don't know how to come down

    Don't try, I don't even care if you lie, you and me



    We're gonna stay high

    We're gonna stay high



    Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low

    Wherever we go, we're gonna get higher than the sun, my baby

    Wherever we go, I wanna stay high not low

    Wherever we go, we're gonna stay high (We're gonna stay high)



    We're gonna stay high, high, high, high (Higher)

    We're gonna stay high, high, high, high

    We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)

    We're gonna stay high, high, high, high

    We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)

    We're gonna stay high, high, high, high

    We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)

    We're gonna stay high, high, high, high

    We're gonna get high, high, high, high (Higher)

    We're gonna stay high, high, high, high

    letra de Tiny Love Reprise

    My name is Michael Holbrook

    I was born in 1983

    No, I'm not losing my mind

    It's just this thing that you do to me



    You get me high on a tiny love

    You get me high



    And if it all goes bad

    And our love sets like the sun

    I'd give up a hundred thousand loves for just this one



    You get me high with a tiny love

    You get me high



    This tiny love, it might be small

    But it's the greatest of them all

    This tiny love would disappear

    You can't forget that it was here



    We are tiny to the world, but in our hearts

    We are giants with our tiny, tiny love

    May be tiny to the world, but in our hearts

    We are giants with our tiny, tiny love

    May be tiny to the world, but in our hearts

    We are giants with our tiny, tiny love

    May be tiny to the world, but not to us

    We are giants with our tiny, tiny love



    My name is Paloma

    I was born in '81

    I live my life, its ups and downs, I had my fun



    But now I'm high with a tiny love

    I will stay high



    And if it all goes bad

    And our love sets like the sun

    I'd give up a hundred thousand loves

    For just this one



    And we'll stay high with a tiny love

    And we'll stay high
